Everything about All The Best is huge in size – most tracks have a stadium-rock feel. This is very evident in the bombastic title song as it catchy rhythms are...

Music review: Love Khichdi (Hindi – Pritam)
Jazeeren has an interesting texture – not full-fledged Pritam sound he reserves for the bigger films, but with enough verve, thanks largely to Ranu Mazumder’s vocals. Zarasa halka is something...
Continue reading...Music review: Vaada Raha (Hindi – Toshi-Sharib, Babbu Maan, Monty, Rahul B. Seth and Sandy)
Toshi-Sharib’s (not TOCHI, please note!!) title song is a familiar 90s lilt and is indeed easy on the ear, while Babbu Maan’s techno-infused dard in Rab na kare is catchy...

Himesh’s new voice in Mann ka radio does sound different; but his actual voice shows up halfway through the droning but addictive song. Three other tracks that make the cut...

The title song is immensely sing-along’ish and despite that mild monotony via Shankar’s vocals, makes for a lovely listen, particularly the exuberant title call-out. In Kya Karoon, the highlight is...

Jabse hum is the musical equivalent a decade-old chick-flick, with its lyrics posing perfectly Google-able existential questions, while VIVA’s reunion in We are the teen queens is equally back dated...
Continue reading...Music review: Quick Gun Murugan (Hindi/ South Indian Gibberish – Sagar Desai, Raghu Dixit)
Update: Daniel George is NOT the composer of this soundtrack. This is perhaps the shoddiest work I’ve ever by a Tier 1 record label – a HUGE round of spanks...
Continue reading...Music review: Dil bole hadippa (Hindi – Pritam & Joshilay)
With a name like that, it is natural to expect hardcore Punjabi tracks – and Hard Kaur does rap in the wholly trite Bhangra bistar! The title song is equally...
