Music review: Sadiyaan (Hindi – Adnan Sami)
Jadu nasha and Sargoshiyon are uncomfortably similar to many songs Adnan has composed for his albums – despite largely likeable tunes. Shaan’s Dekha tujhay is a flat ballad, while the...
Continue reading...Music review: Well Done Abba (Hindi – Shantanu Moitra)
With a tune bordering on Old MacDonald, Mohit Chauhan and Swanand Kirkire’s Hum toh apni is sprightly folk fun, while Ila Arun’s Meri banno apes Mera joota hai japani unabashedly...

Ajnabi hawaayein is old-school melody; but its mysterious longing that gets on to you. Chaahata dil is Aditya Narayan’s show – lovely, romantic number that he makes great use of!...
Continue reading...Music review: Click (Hindi – Shamir Tandon)
Rubayee must be the best song of the soundtrack, since it has 3 versions – the duet with Raaj and Sunidhi works pretty well as a lilting melody backed by...
