The screenplay and jaded situations are as juvenile as Jyotika’s actions in the story. The film is surprisingly boring to a large extent, thanks to the wafer thin plot dragged...
Continue reading...Veyyil (Tamil – GV Prakash)
Veyyilodu and Ooraan thottathula bear very common, done-to-death sounds, arrangements and predictable interludes, even as the base tunes make up for the overall monotony. Kaadhal neruppin’s synth sound sounds like...
Continue reading...Yatra (Hindi – Khayyam, Goutam Ghose)
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...

Continue reading...Zindaggi Rocks (Hindi – Anu Malik)
Meri dhoop sounds like a slower version of The Killer’s Hibbaki, with that distinctive latin/ middle-eastern twang. The middle-eastern sound is even more prominent in the disjoint but catchy Rabbi...
Continue reading...Don (Hindi – Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy)
Yeh mera dil and Khaike paan banaraswala hold more visual appeal than anything aural, thanks to some middling remix and the Kareena/ SRK screen presence. The nouveau title track plays...
