September 2008 - Bollywood Music Reviews

  • Golmaal Returns

    2 years back, Golmaal was just another comedy multi starrer that had hit the screens and turned into a success. Circa 2008 and suddenly one finds its sequel, Golmaal Returns, being elevated to the status of being a potential blockbuster. Reasons are aplenty: a) The first installment of Golmaal is still afresh in the mind of cine goers and is being appreciated in it's satellite and DVD run. Write your own music review of Golmaal Returns b) The sequel looks bigger and better with Shree Ashtavinayak...
  • Emi

    These are exciting times for Bollywood. In a matter of two months, we are seeing diverse films like Rock On, Phoonk, A Wednesday, Saas Bahu Aur Sensex, Welcome To Sajjanpur and now EMI hitting the screens. The kind of films which break the prototype. The kind of films which do not follow a set formula. The kind of films which wouldn't have gone beyond even an idea stage a few years back, let alone being filmed on celluloid. Starring Sanjay Dutt in the lead, EMI talks about 'take loan, buy...
  • Fashion

    Fashion is the biggest project for Madhur Bhandarkar. Majority of his films have been low budget affairs (no, we are not counting Aan - Men At Work), whether it is Trishakti, Chandni Bar, Satta or Traffic Signal. Page 3 and Corporate saw the bar being raised when it came to money being spent on projects but Fashion jumps all bars when it comes to budget being set for a Bhandarkar film. The film has been mounted on a lavish scale, boasts of top-line actors (Priyanka Chopra, Kangana) and even sees...
  • Ek Vivaah Aisa Bhi

    'Ek Music Release Aisa Bhi' - That's an apt way to describe the manner in which the music of Rajshri's latest Ek Vivaah Aisa Bhi has arrived on the stands. You tend to rub your eyes in disbelief to see the CD of this film which stars Sonu Sood and Eesha Koppikar since there hasn't been any promotion whatsoever of either the movie or the music so far. Agreed that Barjatyas follows an unconventional route of publicity of their films but placing an album on stands sans any buzz whatsoever...
  • Welcome to Sajjanpur

    These are exciting times for Bollywood. Otherwise how else could one see so many films in queue for multiplexes when till a few years back, titles like Welcome To Sajjanpur, Saas Bahu Aur Sensex, Dasvidaniya or I Am 24 would not even have been approved, let alone being commissioned to be made into films. However, things have changed that has resulted in directors like Shyam Benegal too changing routes and telling a sensible story in a comic narrative. That's Welcome To Sajjanpur which has music...
  • Drona

    Creating music for a film like Drona is always a tricky preposition. A conventional soundtrack isn't really what the film warrants while boundaries have to be set around how unconventional can the music actually go. This is why one carefully looks at what composer Dhruv Ghanekar (who was a part of the composer duo Ashu-Dhruv) has to offer in Drona which is Abhishek's first solo release since Guru. Surprisingly, unlike some huge expectations that one had from recent biggies like Singh Is Kinng...
  • Saas Bahu Aur Sensex

    Saas Bahu Aur Sensex - Now the title of the film itself makes one wonder what's the kind of music can we expect here. Will it comprise of some situational songs? Will there be a string of light hearted numbers? Should we be expecting an item number or two thrown in for good measure? Boasting of an unconventional plot rather than belonging to a romantic genre, Saas Bahu Aur Sensex has number of new composers coming together to get the film's soundtrack in place. Write your own music review...
  • Hello

    Phoonk - A film on black magic, Hit. Rock On - A film on rock music, Hit. A Wednesday - A film on terrorism, Critically acclaimed and all set to be a box office success. It couldn't have been a better time for unconventional films to arrive at theaters. With audience more than happy to grab anything which seems different from the rest and sounds promising, these are exciting times for Bollywood. This is when arrives Hello, a film which again has an unconventional setting, considering its call...
  • Kidnap

    It is hardly news but what is known amongst all Bollywood followers is that 2008 has been Pritam's year all the way. Race, Jannat, Kismat Konnection, Singh Is Kinng - the list is only growing with every passing month. This is why when the music of Kidnap hits the stands; one is almost tempted to believe that it would make it five in a row for the composer. However, what is required to be kept in mind is that Kidnap is a plot driven film and not a "masala" entertainer or a romantic musical...
  • Ru Ba Ru

    First thing that strikes about the soundtrack of Ru Ba Ru is that it comprises of as many as 12 songs and that too all being originals with not a single remix version. Phew! Now that's something new in the current times when even a hardcore musical like Karzzzz is coming with only 9 songs (though there are 10 remix versions to boast). This makes one wonder about what exactly does the music of Ru Ba Ru have to offer? With 'Speed Of Sound', Satyadev Burman and Sameeruddin contributing to...
  • A Wednesday !

    One is actually puzzled when presented the audio CD of A Wednesday. How can a movie, which is plot driven and tells a tale on a particular Wednesday between afternoon and evening, actually have a place for songs. Ok, so there could be a few situational background pieces but five of them in a single movie is a bit difficult to digest. Well, to be fair to A Wednesday, it is not the first to be experimenting on such lines when it comes to the plot and the music which accompanies it. Very recently Aamir...
