Beera, in true Rahman style, takes a spirited, free-flowing life of its own; the energizing tune, completely fresh vocals of Mustafa Kutoane’s literally African sound and Vijay Prakash’s spritely rendition…it...

Music review: Badmaash Company (Hindi – Pritam)
Ayaashi is racy and definitely catchy; if only it did not spell it out in the name of a chorus…! The title song has Benny Dayal crooning a flat tune...

Zindagi opens as quite a standard package, but the melody and lilting arrangement make it an endearing listen, as it progresses. In Dil kyun yeh mera, the veteran composer creates...

Dekho raste mein evokes strong memories of Life is crazy from Wake Up Sid, but, thankfully, there are enough nuances here to hold your attention. Vishal Dadlani’s inimitable voice carries...

But for some corny angrezi additions, the title song appeals instantly, thanks to the lilting orchestration and Shaan’s sparkling vocals. The stage-song’ish O janeman too is an addictive listen, with...
