EXPECTATIONS
Now it couldn't have been better timed than this. Just when
Riteish Deshmukh and Genelia D'Souza have tied the knot, the
music of their Tere Naal Love Ho Gaya too has hit the
stands. With snippets of most of the songs already been
making the rounds of internet for last few months, the wait
had anyways become way too long to catch hold of the entire
soundtrack. Now it's time to welcome the album which has
music by Sachin-Jigar and lyrics by Mayur Puri and Priya
Panchal.
.
MUSIC
There is no denying the fact that Sachin-Jigar have been fast
making their place in the Bollywood musical scene. Well, if 'Piya
O Re Piya' is any indication then they have taken yet
another solid step in this direction. Melodious to the core and
reminding one of the kind of magic that Pritam had created for 'Pee
Loon' [Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai] when it comes to
sheer styling, 'Piya O Re Piya' is a fabulous song that
deserves repeat hearing. No wonder, the song also arrives in a
'sad' as well as 'remix version' and works every time. The song
excels in both departments, whether it is music or lyrics.
However 'Piya O Re Piya' wouldn't have been the song that
it eventually turns out to be if not for Atif Aslam and Shreya
Ghoshal. Together they are just brilliant behind the mike and
one can comfortably say that this could well be the musical
team's gift to the newly weds.
While 'Piya O Re Piya' is good enough for one to rejoice
the arrival of a melodic album, what further adds weight to
Tere Naa Love Ho Gaya is 'Jeene De'. With
Mohit Chauhan as the name on the credits, one's expectations are
anyways high from what would eventually be in store. However
just one minute into the song and you know that this is yet
another winner in the offering, what with the musical team
creating wonders all over again. If Mohit was simply magical in
Rockstar, he gets into a romantic mood all over again for
'Jeene De' which has a touch of Sufi element to it but
still maintains its Bollywood quotient to the core. With the
'Coffee House' version going even softer and giving an
impression of a live offering, 'Jeene Do' ensures that
you look at the rest of the album with further anticipation.
There is a shift in mood though with the arrival of title song.
Called 'Pee Pa Pee Pa Ho Gaya', this is the kind
of song that could have been reserved for Shahid Kapoor and
would have just made a smooth entry into his territory. With a
Punjabi flavour to it and reminding of many a Pritam
compositions belonging to similar setting that have worked big
time in the past, 'Pee Pa Pee Pa Ho Gaya' is sung with
aplomb by Diljit Dosanjh with Priya Panchal heard crooning
Tere Naal Love Ho Gaya in the background. Deservingly, the
song also finds a 'desi mix' version for itself.
'The album returns to it's core theme with 'Tu Mohabbat
Hai' which has Atif Aslam beginning proceedings and
coming up with exactly the same kind of rendition that he is
known for and has found popularity over the last few years. A
love song which brings back melody into the scheme of things
after a boisterous 'Pee Paa', 'Tu Mohabbat Hai' has added
Western arrangements to it as well. In addition, it's the
inclusion of Monali Thakur and Priya Panchal as the female
singers that further make 'Tu Mohabbat Hai' (which also
arrives in a 'remix version') yet another pleasant outing in
this album.
However what sticks as a sore thumb (and that too big time) is
Sunidhi Chauhan's 'Fann Ban Gayi'. A complete
misfit into the scheme of things, this is an item number that
could just have been done away with. Leave aside the risque
lyrics that just don't suit the flavour of the album, even the
music here is hardly the kind that one would associate with
Sachin-Jigar. Moreover after a terrific flow that had been
created in Tere Naal Love Ho Gaya so far, this one just
doesn't cut ice and is totally avoidable. Sad, because if only
there was a better song placed in the album, it may have been a
perfect outing.
OVERALL
Leaving aside a blemish called 'Fann Ban Gayi', Tere Naal
Love Ho Gaya is a soundtrack that deserves to be heard and
owned. With the composer duo as well as the lyricists and
singers doing complete justice to the young romcom flavour of
the film, this is a musical score that has in it to enjoy a long
run. It would have to start seeing quick sales though since the
album has hit the stands very close to the film's theatrical
release. However if the film also turns into a success, it would
be pretty much a 'sone pe suhaaga' moment for all involved.
