Love Breakups Zindagi (2011)
Music: Salim-Sulaiman


1. Rab Rakha ----------------------------------------- 9/10
Salim-Sulaiman and Sonu Nigam get together another magical romantic track. This song has a great similarity to Shukran Allah from Kurbaan; so if that song impressed you, this one will be a song looking, err, listening forward too. Who else than Shreya Ghoshal can round up the track's sweetness. For melody fans.


2. Love Love Love ------------------------------------ 8/10
A soft, but peppy romantic track. It sounds a little like the Bacardi song, though not completely but reflects the mood and tempo. Simply nice and entertaining without any fanfare. A good song to lift up the mood.

3. Chhayee Hai Tanhayee ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 8/10
Fans of qawwali melodies will love this one. It is not an upbeat qawwali, but a more controlled tune and track of a troubled heart. Soulful.

4. Rozanna ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6/10
Yet another upbeat and catchy track from the album. It is nothing new or foot tapping, but it has the potential to make to croon along. A definite mood lifter for a solo journey. It's failing however, is the repetitiveness of tune, which thankfully is slightly contained by the tracks short length.

Final verdict: A short and sweet album, with the trademark style of Salim-Sulaiman. This duo is definitely silently creating respectable music. Hardly any song can be panned is a good achievement by this pair. An album worth every penny. Gets a 8/10, if you like soft melodies.

Miley Naa Miley Hum (2011)
Music: Sajid-Wajid

1. Wake Up Now ----------------------------------------------- 7/10
A very upbeat and a song of the youth. The tempo is foot tapping and the good mood is very contagious. Besides these positives, the song is just another fun track.

Brownie points:

  • Katto Gilehri - Daler Mehndi brings us another possible Ganapati hit. The folkish energy by Daler Mehndi couple with some corny background score and female lead, Mamta Sharma makes it a great song for the lovers of this genre.
  • Haan Yahi Pyaar Hai - A pleasant romantic track by Shaan and Shreya Ghoshal would have been a huge hit in the early 2000s. It is respectable, but just sounds a little stale now.
Final verdict: All other songs are also very listenable. This is a surprise package from Sajid-Wajid who have claimed their fame by lending some goofy tunes to Salman Khan movies. It is a decent album that mostly fails to pass the novelty quotient.

Na Jaane Kabse.. (2011)
Music: Jatin Pandit, Deep Gupta

A farce of sorts. Another example of perfunctory music. And yes, for confirmation, we have moved into 2011. Just saying, because, the songs makes us feel we are in the 90s.
