Jassi’s vocals make a huge difference in Laung da lashkara, a passably catchy track; but Rola pa gaya is severely weighed down by its stereotyped SEL sound. Hans Raj Hans’ Tumba tumba is delightfully earthly and tuneful, while Shafqat’s Kyun main jaagoon and Vishal Dadlani’s Aadat hai voh are both brilliantly scored, with fabulous lyrics! Baby when you talk to me has a lilting, 80s pop one-hit wonder sound while Richa Sharma rounds off the soundtrack with the resonant Aval Allah. Patiala House gains a lot from its elegant melodies! And yes, something needs to be done about Hard Kaur.
