Jannat 2 Music Review



Jannat 2 Music
Music Director : Pritam Chakraborty

One of the most anticipated soundtracks of 2012, given that Jannat was a classic album.

Tu Hi mera : By Shafqat Amanat Ali. Essentially a qwaali love track, but you can't help getting hints of Ishq sufiana and Pee loon, the latter by Pritam himself. Still no where near those songs. The same and constant tabla beats, with no kind of innovations. Shafqat's singing is average but thats his usual style. Let go. Overall a good one time hear.
Tera Deedar Hua : By Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. Again sufi and qwaali. But this one catches ur attention. FAK has let himself loose in this song. Good arrangements. Meaningful lyrics. Chorus is catchy. A great deal of new sounds can be heard in between. Good hear!
 Tera Deedar Hua(From the heart) : Javed Ali. Javed maintains his identity behind the mic. Personally I feel this version is better than the original. Superb!
Tujhe Sochta Hoon. KK. Of course, what is Jannat without KK? You expect an urbane cool melody from Pritam -KK combo. And here it is, nice and smooth in league with Jannat soundtrack. touching guitar strings and beats. Loved the flow of the track and KK's soulful rendition. The aalap will get addictive once you hear it 2-3 times. KK all the way. Winner.!!
Sang Hoon Tere : By Nikhil D'Souza. Another version of Tujhe sochtha hoon. The tune is so good that it doesn't matter who sung it. Nikhil is impressiveand fresh with a bit of english parts. Have to watch which version works with the masses.
Rab Ka Shukrana. :  By Mohit Chauhan. A grt song all the way! Sufi elements merged with Mohit's vocals presented in an unplugged mode with a good deal of lyrics. Violin and piano adds feel to the song. Mohit is perfect behid the mic. This one's gonna be a chart climber!
Rab Ka Shukrana (Reprise) : By Anupam Amod. Greater orchestration and they are good too. Anupam is  huskier and less nasal than Mohit, but feel remains the same.
Jannatein Kahan. : KKs back with Zara sa, this time with an improved version. Modern and fresh. The addictive aalap remains the same, all else different. Didn't understand the intention of the raps though. Loved it. Maybe because of KK. Good hear.!
Jannatein Kahan (Power Ballad) : By Nikhil D'Souza. Not much different from the originals except for the enhanced beats and rock edge. Good one.

Overall, Jannat 2 is a very good album but we expected an outstanding one. It is in league with Jannat but not one of Pritam's outstanding scores. All songs are good but what missing is a single chartbuster. All hopes on Rab Ka Shukraana and Tujhe sochtha hoon.
