Heroes |
After the slow version pop singer Shail Hada is heard again in 'Gurbani', a Sikh devotional number which is heard during the prayer service in gurudwaras. A number to cleanse up the soul and refresh the faith and belief. One just wishes that it was not so short and a bit more fulfilling like the 'Ek Onkar' from 'Jo Bole So Nihaal' or the Sukhwinder 'Gurbani' from Santoshi's 'Halla Bol'.
Coming to the Heroes Theme, it starts with 'Wat's Up My Bro' signature tune on piano, followed by dramatic army marching /drill sounds and the pace slows down and we have the mesmerizing 'Mannata' tune and lone female chorus. And this trend continues. In short, it is a nice amalgamation of the different soundtracks of the album. The pace oscillates between slow and crescendo. A good job by the arranger Sonjay Chaudhury.
On the whole, Heroes is one of the better albums to have come out recently. It has an assortment of tracks that depict different moods in keeping with the situations in the movie. By and large, the songs maintain a uniformly good standard. The best tracks are 'Mannata' and 'Makhana' by Sajid-Wajid. Director Sameer Karnik does his reputation a world of good by showing that he has a discerning taste in music once again after 'Kyun...! Ho Gaya Na'.
