Shootout at Wadala Music Review


Shootout at Wadala Music
Music Direction : Anu Malik, Anand Raj Anand & Mustafa Zahid
Lyrics : Irshad Kamil

What I expected? : Some really, really situational tracks, for an action oriented film.

Babli Badmash, lets face it, despite being a standard Sunidhi Chauhan item number, has an addictive hook, which definitely makes it worth repeated listens. Otherwise, strictly video-dependent track. 
Aala Re Aala feels like continuation of Babli Badmash and even with Mika and Sunidhi, falls flat.
Yeh Junoon is thankfully scintillating where we get to hear the Mustafa Zahid of the 'Awarapan' days in the elegantly crafted somber soft rock melody. Haunting, soulful and beautiful! #Repeat
Aey Manya has an interesting rhythm albeit being situational, Adnan Sami takes the prospects higher.
Goli by Meet Bros Anjjan is again situational, feels more like a theme song.
Laila Tujhe Loot lage with Mika to its grace, feels staid even with enjoyable 80's beats and arrangements.
All songs have a remix each, which have not been reviewed.

Verdict : For a movie like Shootout at Wadala, a non-situational soundtrack doesn't make sense and the album justifies expectations. Minus Yeh Junoon, all others are formula tracks which will hopefully work along with the video but as stand alones, tough luck.

Must Hears! : Yeh Junoon
