Son Of Sardar Music Review

Son of Sardar Music

Music : Himesh Reshammiya, Sajid-Wajid
Lyrics : Sameer, Shabbir Ahmmed, Irshad Kamil, Manoj Yadav

What I expected : Being the soundtrack of a completely commercial entertainer, some very catchy and massy tracks.

Son of Sardar by Aman Triikha and Himesh Reshammiya, the title track, starts off with an interesting dialogue piece by Ajay Devgan but moves on to become quite a catchy Punjabi setup which changes to nostalgic-slow at parts. Good singing by Aman and a good hear!
Remix is fast paced and catchy.
Rani tu mein Raja by Yo Yo Honey Singh, Mika Singh and Bhavya Pandit is an amazingly catchy dance track, beginning with Honey's superb Punjabi hip-hop and then translating to a total romantic Mika affair and Bhavya supporting beautifully.! Good hear!
Remix is not good.
Tu Kamaal di Kudi by Vinit singh and Mamta Sharma is a good Punjabi dance track, heavily arranged, and sung rightly making the track worth the hear.
Bichdann by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan is powerfully intense, sad and melancholic, boasting of meaningful lyrics and accurate, first class Hindustani arrangements with straight-from-the-heart singing by RFAK producing a gem of a song! Great hear! This is gonna linger for a long time.! 
Bichdann Reprise by RFAK itself has completely different arrangements, modern, sweet, romantic and a good hear!
Po Po sung by Vikas Bhalla, Aman Trikha and Himesh Reshammiya is basically another Punjabi dance track, nevertheless catchy and aptly arranged with foot tapping desi beats and full on energy singing. Good hear!
Yeh Jo Halki Halki Khumariya by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, composed by Sajid-Wajid is a painfully boring and wonderfully bad composition with below average arrangements(WTF with that rock fusion arrangements?!) with the saving grace being RFAK only.
Kabhi Kabhi Mere Dil Mein (Funk Version & House track trance) composed by Sandeep Chowta is just a dialogue piece by Mr Devgan with some Punjabi background setup.

Verdict : SOS soundtrack justifies expectations. Minus the Sjid-Wajid track, the album is a good and safe one which is predominantly Punjabi in flavor. Himesh Reshammiya has produced some good and catchy tracks having the potential of climbing charts in coming months.! Try it!

AVERAGE<GOOD<VERY GOOD<EXCELLENT!<OUTSTANDING! 

Bol Bachchan Music Review

 

Bol Bachchan Music
Music Direction : Himesh Reshammiya, Ajay-Atul.

Bol Bachchan - Amitabh Bachchan, Abhishek Bachchan & Ajay Devgn. Title track. Absurd but funny english lyrics. Catchy tune with grt Indian flavour. Amitabh, Abhishek are good behind the mike. Will linger for some time.Good One!
Remix comes with enhanced beats. Nothing new.
Chalao Na Naino Se - Himesh Reshammiya & Shreya Ghoshal. HR behind the mike again. This tym with the peppy dance romantic song. Average singing, Shreya is pretty good but gets only less scope. May work once video is out. Remix is just a remix.
Nach Le Nach Le - Sukhwinder Singh & Shreya Ghoshal. By guest composers Ajay-Atul. This one will put your legs on fire. Furiously fast and over the top singing by Sukku ji and Shreya supports beautifully. Perfect arrangements with the traditional desi feel. Go for it! Yeah, remix is there.
Jab Se Dekhi Hai - Mohit Chauhan. This is one song HR will sing himself if needed for one of his acting films. Sufi infused slow moving song with a lot of feel. Mohit has done a good job. Kind of nostalgic track, perfect for sitalone night time hear.! Good one! Could've avoided the remix.

Verdict. Above average album. Himesh lets down with Chalao Na. But the title track will catch up and Jab Se will be too. Have to watch out for Nachle. Come up with more innovations HR.

2.5/5
