EXPECTATIONS Films directed by Abhishek Kapoor have traditionally carried good music. From Rock On to Fitoor , the music has been consistently impressive and has been as per the theme and setting of the film. Now that he is bringing on Kedarnath that marks the launch of Sara Ali Khan opposite Sushant Singh Rajput, one waits to hear what do composer Amit Trivedi and lyricist Amitabh Bhattacharya have to offer. MUSIC There is something truly divine about the manner in which ‘Namo Namo’ begins. A devotional number which is truly devoid of any forced Bollywood inspirations, this one is a well rendered number by Amit Trivedi and makes an instant impression. A smooth sailing song that has a peaceful feel to it and is further accentuated due to the striking visuals that go alongside, ‘ Namo Namo’ can well be assured of a long shelf life amongst those who want to hear a devotional number first thing in the morning. A love song arrives next in the form of ‘Qaafirana’ and the mood and feel ...

EXPECTATIONS After Sunny Deol's delayed releases Mohalla Assi and Bhaiyaji Superhit , it is now time for Sunny Leone's long pending Tina & Lolo to finally see the light of the day. Announced five years back, the film was originally supposed to feature Minissha Lamba with Sunny Leone. However, Karishma Tanna came in place of Minissha, though the film continued to get delayed. Now that it is gearing up for arrival, one waits to see how does the film's music turn out to be.  MUSIC Enbee and Ikka (who is also the lyricist) come together as composers and singers for 'Dirty Girl' . A fun-n-naughty number that is just in the kind of territory that one expects from a Sunny Leone dance number, this one with Shivangi Bhayana as the female singer has the kind of hook-line which is catchy but that's about it. Otherwise whether it is the beginning or the end of the intermittent rap portion, there isn't much striking about 'Dirty Girl'. On the same lines as ...

EXPECTATIONS First things first, it is extremely surprising that the entire soundtrack of Zero released on the same day as the film's arrival in theatres. Even though 'Mere Naam Tu' , 'Issaqbaazi' as well as 'Husn Parcham' had been received quite well, somehow the makers didn't unveil the entire soundtrack with four more songs. What's further surprising is that these songs have been quite well composed as well and hence one wonders why the jukebox release was delayed. Nonetheless, let's check out what Ajay-Atul and Tanishk Bagchi along with Irshad Kamil have to offer.  MUSIC Zero sees a fantastic start for itself, what with 'Mere Naam Tu' turning out to be the love ballad of the year. A marvellous composition by Ajay-Atul with some beautiful poetic lyrics by Irshad Kamil, 'Mere Naam Tu' has been sung brilliantly by Abhay Jodhpurkar. In fact his voice suits Shah Rukh Khan to the T and one now waits for their further collaborat...

EXPECTATIONS This one actually throws a pleasant surprise. Typically when it comes to independent films one can't really be sure of the kind of music that they would offer. However in case of Bombairiya there is some effort that has actually been put into creating some pleasant music. Arko is brought on board along with guest composers Amjad-Nadeem and the results are satisfactory. MUSIC Arko plays the triple role of composer, lyricist and singer for 'Sanki', a Punjabi-Hindi number that is just the kind that on expects from a Punjabi hip-hop album. With a catchy tune to it, 'Sanki' turns out to be instantly catchy and makes one look forward to how it is placed in the film. Producer Michael E Ward chips in too with lyrics for this fun number that has a hook playing right through which makes one nod in appreciation. Next to arrive is 'Bairiya' , the word which also forms the base for the film's title Bombairiya. The song arrives in two versions, one whi...

EXPECTATIONS Rohit Shetty films are traditionally not known for their music. At best, the soundtrack of his action-comedy entertainers are functional and they solve the purpose of keeping the narrative going. Hence, one expects the same from Simmba as well which has Tanishk Bagchi getting his biggest break when it comes to composing most of the songs, with multiple lyricists coming together to pen their pieces. MUSIC Chartbuster song 'Aankh Marey' from Tere Mere Sapne is recreated for the Ranveer Singh-Sara Ali Khan starrer and it turns out to be a massive chartbuster from the word go. It is always heartening when a recreation is done well and Tanishk Bagchi deserves full credit for getting it fantastically right with this Kumar Sanu original that is now sung by Mika Singh. The singer comes together with Neha Kakkar behind the mike and together they have loads of fun while Shabbir Ahmed comes up with new lyrics. The song is set to be played right into 2019. Nusrat Fateh Ali ...

EXPECTATIONS There was a time when a Rajshri film was special and its music was much awaited as well. However, of late the production house has slowed down its operations, at least when it comes to feature films. Their last biggie was Prem Ratan Dhan Payo and now they are coming up with Hum Chaar which features four newcomers. Though Barjatyas have traditionally worked with a single composer for music of their films, they bring on board a horde of composers for Hum Chaar . Shabbir Ahmed writes. MUSIC George Joseph is the composer for 'Friends Bhi Family Hain' which has night club music feel to it. That said, somehow the music overpowers lyrics (by Abhishek Dixit) and hence somehow the rendition by Aaman Trikha and Rajiv Sundaresan is lost in the middle of it all. Moreover, the core hook of the song is the kind that sounds more like an ad jingle than a film song. Team SARA gets to compose maximum number of songs in Hum Chaar with three of these to their credit. First to arri...

EXPECTATIONS Since Thackeray is a biopic, one basically expects situational soundtrack for the film which would basically glorify the subject in question, Balasaheb Thackeray. Composers Rohan-Rohan [Rohan Pradhan and Rohan Gokhale], who had earlier composed a couple of songs for Sanju [ ‘Main Badhiya Tu Bhi Badhiya’ , ‘Bhopu Baj Raha Hai’ ] are the composers for Thackeray . MUSIC It is a grand beginning for 'Saheb Tu Sarkar Tu' and one does get an impression of a biggie outing for the big screen with the kind of orchestra that is put up. Moreover, the lead singer is just apt too, what with Sukhwinder Singh crooning the words written by Manoj Yadav. As expected, the song is all about glorifying Thackeray as the 'messiah' of the masses. Expect the song to arrive at a crucial juncture of the film's narrative and bring on the dramatic appeal. Next in line is 'Aaple Saheb Thackeray' which is written by Manndar Cholkar. This one is in fact a Marathi number and...

EXPECTATIONS When it comes to a horror affair, good music always helps in aiding awareness around it. Moreover, the director here is Bhushan Patel and his Ragini MMS 2 had chartbuster music. One expects at least a functionally good score in Amavas which has multiple composers and lyricists coming together. MUSIC It's the sound of guitar that kick-starts the proceedings for 'Jab Se Mera Dil' . This is indeed a good team at play as Armaan Malik and Palak Muchhal come together behind the mike and are very effective as singers. The song also has composers Sanjeev-Darshan coming back after a hiatus and with Sandeep Nath writing some simple lyrics for this romantic number, you are in for a good pleasant outing that has melody as the centre-stage. Next to arrive is a dance number 'Finito' and this one has Jubin Nautiyal in a different avtar as he gets into a club outing. He is supported by Sukriti Kakar along with rapper Ikka and together they ensure that there is no du...

EXPECTATIONS When Zoya Akhtar announced Gully Boy with Ranveer Singh, there wasn't much known about what the film would bring on screen. Hence, it was surprise galore for the audiences when Ranveer Singh's rap number introduced the film through a teaser. Now after catching hold of the soundtrack there is another big surprise in store as there are an astonishing 18 songs in there. MUSIC Ranveer Singh debuts as a rapper in real life as well, what with as many as five tracks against his name. Amkur Tiwari produced and Spitfire composed and written 'Asli Hip Hop' is already a riot for the manner in which Ranveer goes about rendering this one. A hit amongst those who love the underbelly of rap, this is followed by Divine, Naezy and Sez on the Beat's 'Mere Gully Mein' which takes the whole excitement to the next level. It is riotous, ferocious and true to its genre, hence also ensuring very good recall value. Things turn a bit soft though when Ranveer goes on to...

EXPECTATIONS It is in fact surprising to find a soundtrack for Sonchiriya . Yes, director Abhishek Chaubey has incorporated music in his earlier films like Ishqiya , Dedh Ishqiya and Udta Punjab . Still, with the Chambal setting of Sonchiriya , you don't quite expect music in there. However, Abhishek has done that by bringing on board composer Vishal Bhardwaj and lyricist Varun Grover. MUSIC It is a Western country music beginning for Sonchiriya as Mame Khan brings on an 'alaap' for 'Baaghi Re' even as a guitar plays in the background. This one has a haunting feel to it which goes well with the theme of the film. Moreover, there is this distinct Vishal Bhardwaj element that comes into play for 'Baaghi Re' which sets it apart from the other soundtracks that you hear in Bollywood. Not that this one, or its 'remix version' that follows, would be a chartbuster but in the context of the film it plays its part well. Rekha Bhardwaj, who definitely comes...

EXPECTATIONS With the film already running in theatres and each of the songs been out one after another, you are pretty much aware about what the music of Total Dhamaal has to offer. Gourov-Roshin are the composers for this soundtrack that is quite snazzy with just four songs in there. MUSIC It is a retro beginning for Total Dhamaal as Laxmikant-Pyaarelal, Anand Bakshi and Kishore Kumar's 'Paisa Yeh Paisa' is recreated by Gourov-Roshin and lyricist Kunwar Juneja. The good part about this recreation is that the core essence of the song has been kept intact right from the 'mukhda' to the 'antara'. While Dev Negi and Subhro Ganguly do well to keep the playful element on, it is Arpita Chakraborty's vocals in the 'antara' portions that really elevate the song further. A good number to hear and enjoy all over again. The next track to follow is a recreation too with Gourov-Roshin and Kunwar Juneja putting together Rajesh Roshan and Usha Mangeshkar...

EXPECTATIONS Well, this could be a record of sorts when an entire soundtrack of a film has been made out of recreated versions. However, this is what happens in case of Luka Chuppi which has five songs in there and each of these has been a hit in its original versions during the last few years gone by. Let's check these out. MUSIC The only song in the album which has been recreated from a Bollywood flick, 'Poster Lagwa Do' is based on 'Ye Khabar Chapwado Akhbar Mein' from Akshay Kumar and Urmila Matondkar starrer Aflatoon . This time around the singers at the helm of affairs are Mika Singh and Sunanda Sharma, and both come up with a very energetic outing. White Noise Studios is the force behind the new composition and lyrics, though this version could have done without the brief rap portion. Also the crescendo that picks around 'Ek Ladka Ek Ladki' is a bit odd and avoidable. Tanishk Bagchi, the man responsible for quite a few recreated versions during the ...

EXPECTATIONS From a film like Badla , one expects a few theme songs that would be used for promotional purpose. Since this Sujoy Ghosh directed film is more of a conversational affair, there was never any scope for songs arriving in the course of the narrative. This is what happens too in this soundtrack which has five numbers, all of which are basically theme tracks. MUSIC It is a sad song that kick-starts the album, what with composer Amaal Mallik bringing on board his brother Armaan Malik for 'Kyun Rabba' . This is a kind of number where lyrics have an important role to play and from that perspective lyricist Kumaar doesn't disappoint. He brings in the right elements of pain, separation and regrets in the song which later arrives in the 'acoustic version' as well and does leave a decent impression. Clinton Cerejo, who has given the fantastic background score of Badla , is the man in charge for the rap track 'Aukaat ' which plays during the opening credi...

EXPECTATIONS An Akshay Kumar starrer always has scope for some good music, regardless of the genre that it belongs. Kesari is a battle drama and it is not surprising to actually see half a dozen songs in there. A couple of songs from the film have already become popular and it is time to check out what do the multiple composers and lyricists have to bring on the table for the soundtrack. MUSIC Kesari kick-starts with Guru Gobind Singh Ji's shabd 'Ek Onkaar' . There have been quite a few versions of the track that have been released during last many years and the most popular one has featured in Rang De Basanti . Now Jasbir Jassi comes up with his own rendition here and does manage to make a good impact. It is surprising to find a love song comes next in Kesari which is basically centred on a battle. 'Ve Maahi' is a pleasant surprise though as Tanishk Bagchi, who is known most for number of recreated chartbusters that he has delivered, delivers a soulful romantic...

EXPECTATIONS Most of the times when newcomers are launched, the film belongs to the romantic genre. Of course when it is a love story in the offering then music has to be a strong point as well. Moreover, Notebook is a Salman Khan production and hence you do expect composer Vishal Mishra to deliver goods along with his team of lyricists who come together for five tracks. MUSIC The manner in which 'Safar' begins, you are reminded of 'Ilahi' [ Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani ]. Moreover, Mohit Chauhan is the common element as well which further enhances the appeal of this Kaushal Kishore written number. Composer Vishal Mishra does well to create the kind of music that is set in the hills and brings in the right serenity that you associate with such milieu. Based on Kashmiri folk music, lyricist Kaushal Kishore spins 'Bumro' , the core theme of which was also heard in Hrithik Roshan's Mission Kashmir almost two decades back. This time around it is Kamaal Khan who r...

EXPECTATIONS With the soundtrack of Junglee arriving on the day of the film's release, there has hardly been any awareness around the music. Moreover, the film is a jungle adventure and hence at best one expects composer Sameer Uddin to have come up with situational numbers. MUSIC There are only three songs in the album, and the first one is written by Anvita Dutt. Titled 'Fakeera Ghar Aaja' , this one is about a man's homecoming and makes for a situational setting. With a decent sound to it, it has some functional rendition by Jubin Nautiyal and just about passes muster. Next to arrive is Kumar Suryavanshi written 'Garje Gajraj Hamare' and this one is an ode to elephants. It tries to be all cute and nice with a child accompanying Vidyut as they go around the village. However, the end result is hardly the kind that would make you feel like playing this Navraj Hans, Hamsika Iyer, Abhishek Nailwal and Gulshan Kumar sung number on loop. Kumar Suryavanshi is also ...

EXPECTATIONS There are huge expectations from the music of Kalank . After it, it sees Karan Johar and Sajid Nadiadwala join hands who bring on board composer Pritam along with lyricist Amitabh Bhattacharya. Moreover, with a stellar cast at its disposal and Varun Dhawan along with Alia Bhatt leading the show, you do expect fireworks. MUSIC First to arrive is 'Ghar More Pardesiya' which is set during the Dusshehra sequence in the film. The song helps take the narrative forward for the film as Alia Bhatt meets Madhuri Dixit and then Varun Dhawan for the first time. The well written number has a good metaphorical reference too and Pritam brings a new dimension of his to the fore by putting together this semi-classical track that is very well rendered by Shreya Ghoshal. Later in the soundtrack, a 'radio edit' version appears which has Vaishali Mhade joining Shreya. This one adds to the recall value. Next to arrive is 'First Class' and this is also the best song of ...

EXPECTATIONS Salman Khan. Katrina Kaif. Ali Abbas Zafar. Bhushan Kumar. Vishal-Shekhar. Irshad Kamil - When the credentials are as huge as that, you expect the music to be of the next level. Moreover, considering the fact that the film transitions Salman Khan's journey from being a youngster to an old man as he lives his life along with the rise of Bharat , the music needs to be big too. MUSIC First to arrive is 'Slow Motion' and the song is anything but slow motion at play here. A fast paced number that is just the kind which goes with Salman Khan's image, it reminds one of the kind of numbers that were heard in his earlier films like Ready and Bodyguard. Nakash Aziz gets the 'sur' right when it comes to singing for a Salman Khan number and Shreya Ghoshal is a surprise choice as a situation like this could well have been a ready stage for Neha Kakkar to step in. Nonetheless, a foot tapping number that takes time to grow but does eventually. As is expected, a l...

EXPECTATIONS There are very good expectations from the music of Kabir Singh . After all, there are hardly any out and out love stories that are made in the current times and Kabir Singh has the kind of premise that could well be an ideal follow up to Aashiqui 2 . Moreover, the film features Shahid Kapoor in the lead and his films have traditionally boasted of good music. The soundtrack here is pretty loaded too with as many as nine songs out there and a team of composers, lyricists and singers coming together to deliver wholesome entertainment. MUSIC The album kick-starts with 'Bekhayali' and this is pretty much the romantic song of the year so far, what with the perfect combination of music and lyrics making this one really stand out from the crowd. Irshad Kamil brings in just the right kind of 'dard' in this heartfelt song about separation and his lyrics have to be heard to be experienced. Sachet-Parampara come up with an excellent composition here and what makes th...

EXPECTATIONS Malaal is a love story coming from Sanjay Leela Bhansali who has produced the film. Though his directorial offerings have always boasted of at least two or three memorable songs, same can't be said about his productions. Considering that he has composed majority of songs in Malaal with Prashant Ingole writing the lyrics, one waits to see what the team has to offer. MUSIC It is a 'dhinchaak' start that Malaal gets with Vishal Dadlani and Shreyas Puranik coming together for the 'tapori' number 'Aila Re' . Vishal sounds quite different in this 'basti' and chawl number that has a good hook to it with beats that do catch your attention. Pritam has composed quite a few songs in this genre over the years and with Sanjay Leela Bhansali too following the 80s formula, you like what you hear here. With the core hook borrowed from 'Apun Bola' [ Josh ], which was again based on Maharashtrian folk music, 'Udhal Ho' too is attached...
