Yatra is sure an unconventional album. Should be…with music by Khayyam and Goutam Ghose, who does music for most of his movies! Out of the 4 tracks by Khayyam, only Talat Aziz’s Saaz-e-dil, with a true-blue ghazal feel, impresses. The other three are painfully out of sorts. Goutam Ghose runs riot with 8 re-composed tracks. While the remix of Kabhi aar is embarrassing, Shuvra Guha’s bandish Dareja dareja, the thumri More akhiyan and Keya Acharya’s Panchhi pinjre se are decent. After the anomaly cited below this review, strange that I get another, so soon! Yatra’s soundtrack requires one key virtue…patience!
