Rajesh Roshan has come a long way from Julie to Kites. And here he composes again for the person he does it best. For his very own nephew Hrithik, for their home production, Anurag Basu directed Kites. Now that the movie has been in limelight for quite some time, and Hrithik has not done a [...]

I was wondering what Rajesh Roshan was coming up with when I read the names of Vishal Dadlani and Suraj Jagan on the cover of Kites. Definitely it had to be something Rocking, but then, the song starts on quite some low, easy on ears notes and it takes some time before Rajesh Roshan builds [...]

So finally Hrithik sings too. And that in an English and Spanish song, though the EspaƱol parts are sung by Suzanne D’Mello alone. The song has some good music and lyrics and Hrithik sings his part well. Suzanne is of course a wonderful singer and has done her work wonderfully. Here are the lyrics of [...]

Quite. Calm. Deep, and Touching. Dil Kyun ye mera shor kare is probably the best and long lasting song of Kites. A slow and soulful composition of Rajesh Roshan gets a wonderful rendition by KK and the result is Dil Kyun Ye Mera. The five and half minute song sounds great right from the first [...]

Slow. Soft. Lovable. Wonderful. A bit nostalgic, and very typical. That’s Zindagi do pal ki. The first song of Kites that hit the television screens months ago is something worth listening to. Composer Uncle Rajesh Roshan brings KK to sing the song for Hrithik and he sings it so smoothly that after listening to the [...]

Sajid-Wajid touched a high with Veer but it seems they won’t be able to maintain that high for long. Still, Jaane Kahan se aayi hai is a bit better than their average work before Veer. The album has just four songs and two remixes which are more or less all okay. Here is a review.

Ranjit Barot has always been one of my underrated favorites because of the freshness he generally adds to music. And even though most of his soundtracks are completely non-popular movies, I enjoy some of them quite a lot, Holiday being the most prominent. Muskura ke dekh Zara again has some fresh tracks while some of [...]

Housefull’s music is not great. It’s what it is supposed to be – Total Time Pass and Entertaining. Like it, love it, use it, throw it. Well, almost.

Shankar Ehsaan Loy are those gems of Hindi film industry who, once given freedom to be creative, create things beyond common man’s imagination. Sunidhi Chauhan and Shabbir Kumar sung I don’t know what to do from Housefull is something like that only.

Frankly, it’s not really a book review. It’s more of a love affair with a book which happens to be my hardly-known-to-me hero’s autobiography. Biddu was a name that I had read a lot of times, on a lot of tracks that I loved during the Indipop revolution of mid to late ’90s. And so, [...]

After waiting for ages, Paathshala is finally coming. But not like an old piece work. In fact the album sounds quite fresh with all the songs sung by Salim Merchant, Vishal Dadlani, Lucky Ali and Kailash Kher. Frankly, composer Hanif Shaikh has done some good work and the album is certainly worth listening to, and [...]

Lucky Ali is back with a bang. While he is in the process of launching his album Xsuie online, he can be found in Paathshala too, singing Bekaraar in his well known style. The song, Bekaraar, is a good composition of Hanif Sheikh that suits Lucky’s voice well. The lyrics are good and though the [...]

Shankar Ehsaan Loy have become a music factory this year. Before the score of one movie starts fading, they come up with the next. This time it’s Hum tum aur ghost, starring Arshad Warsi and Diya Mirza. With lyrics from Javed Akhtar again. Here is a review. Dekho Raste mein is a fast, peppy, but [...]

Whenever Caralisa Monteiro comes to sing for Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy, there is generally something worth looking for. Kal Tum The Yahan of Hum Tum aur Ghost, sung by Shankar along with Caralisa is no exception. Kal tum the yahaan is a wonderful, slow, and absolutely lovable song on a beautiful melody that you will most probably love [...]
