Music Review | Sarbjit | Amaal Mallik, Jeet Gannguli, Shail-Pritesh, Tanishk Bagchi, Shashi-Shivamm

By -
Omung Kumar returns back with another biopic after Mary Kom. Mary Kom had its share of really good songs but people went in for the story. Maybe it'll be similar with Sarbjit - the songs will be integrated in the story itself and will take the story forward. What are my expectations before listening to the album? This album has ten songs. It is going to be a really long review. Hold on your seats tight. A lot of different  renowned singers have playbacked for this album. Looking forward to those particular songs. Hoping to find a few surprises in the album too Listen to Sarbjit-2016 on Saavn *3.5 hours later* My review below will be unbiased by the fact the it is going to be a long album and will be biased towards good music. *fingers crossed* Salamat Singers: Arijit Singh, Tulsi Kumar Lyrics:  Rashmi Virag I like the transition of background beats with each verse. It starts with payal beats in the initial verse, followed by addi...

Music Review | Raaz Reboot | Jeet Gannguli, Sangeet-Siddharth Haldipur

By -
If you enjoy watching YouTube videos more than reading a blog post, you can check out my video review for the music album of Raaz Reboot here: If not, read on! The page is all yours. It is an established fact that songs from Emraan Hashmi's movies are always a great treat to ears. Add to that three songs by Arijit Singh - DOUBLE BONUS! Raaz has been the most successful horror movie franchise in Indian cinema. If not for their story then definitely for their music. So, without further ado, let's get into it and see if this album can make me fall in love ghosts or scares the shit out of me. Listen on Saavn: Listen to Raaz-Reboot-2016 on Saavn (Click on the song title to play it in YouTube) Lo Maan Liya Singers: Arijit Singh Lyrics: Kausar Munir The song is sung so soft and mellow that you don't even realize it is heartbreak song. Some portion of lyrics might sound a bit creepy - "Lo maan liya dekha hi nahi,  Tere kaandhe ka wo til". The only not...

Music Review | Simran | Sachin-Jigar

By -
Kangana Ranaut is back with another solo movie after Queen. The reason I am comparing is because Queen had beautiful music. Hence, it is only fair if I have higher/equal expectations from this album. One other reason for this is that Queen was composed by Amit Trivedi and Simran is composed by Sachin-Jigar, both of my favourite music composers. Album Release Date: 25th August 2017 Listen to the album on: Saavn Gaana Wynk YouTube Lagdi Hai Thaai Singers: Guru Randhawa, Jonita Gandhi Lyrics: Vayu This song is on the similar lines of  London Thumakda (Queen)  but on a milder tone. It is not too much in-your-face. I like how there is a blend between Punjabi and Hindi (with Gujarati accent). Jonita Gandhi shows her versatility once again by singing in lower scales and having that Gujarati accent. Pinjra Tod Ke Singers: Sunidhi Chauhan Lyrics: Priya Saraiya As the title already suggests, this song talks about being free. A template music with ...

Music Mention | Sairat (Marathi) | Ajay-Atul

By -
So last week I watched this movie after it created a lot of buzz in the film industry. The film is no doubt a realistic masterpiece. What caught my attention was its music. It's a three hour long movie but has only four songs. And those four songs are purely situational and takes the story forward Even though I understand and speak Marathi, it was difficult to interpret rural Marathi. Even with such difficulty in terms of language, I thoroughly enjoyed the movie and the music. This is a special case of my music reviews. It is more of a music mention than a review. I liked something and I want others to be aware of it too (that sounds like the social media culture of this generation of kids :P) Yad Lagla (Gone Completely Insane) Singer: Ajay Gogavale Lyrics: Ajay-Atul Basically I am writing this post because of this song. Being a Marathi movie you don't expect such kind of song, that too for a movie depicting rural Maharashtra. This is a the first Indian film s...

[FULL ALBUM] Music Review | Raees | Ram Sampath, JAM8

By -
The hype is real for this movie. Does it matter to me? No. What matters to me is whether Ram Sampath and JAM8 managed to overpower that hype with their music. We'll find that out at the end of this post. Album Release Date: 23rd January 2017 (Click on the song title to play it on Saavn) Laila Main Laila Music Composer: Ram Sampath Singer: Pawni Pandey Lyrics: Indeevar What romantic movies does to women, porn does to men. This song brings together both of these - king of romance and (ex)-queen of porn (no disrespect but it seems that was the intention here). Does the song fail to impress in terms of music (obviously it has already impressed in other terms)? The catchphrase tune and the choir parts are really addictive. This song doesn't give Pawni Pandey (Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Lil Champs finalist) a chance to showcase her singing prowess with overpowering music but it does open up a lot of opportunities for her. Check out the lyrics of this song here:  http://...
