Singh Is Bling (Music review), Hindi – Manj Musik, Sneha Khanwalkar, Sajid-Wajid & Meet Bros Anjjan
Add Bollywood’s garish excesses to an inherently simple and gorgeous folk tune, you get the film’s version of Tung tung. It only forces you to head to Sneha’s own original....

Phatte tak nachna, despite Sunidhi’s enthusiastic singing, is incredibly bland and template-driven! But Fashion khatham works big time, Mamta Sharma dishing out a punchy dance track with perfect chutzpah! Even...

The title song has the same kuthu-energy as any other South Indian hero introduction song, while Don’t touch my body is adequately and simplistically bawdy. In the catchy Jai Govinda,...
