Music: Sajid-Wajid
Sajid-Wajid have never been the kind of talent that would shatter the charts with their original work. Their work either borders on the frivolous or Nadeem-Shravan-esque effusive cliches. Teri Meri Kahaani is no exception. The songs are formulaic, overly sentimental or romantic. Of the songs from the album, the following are somewhat purposeful.
Brownie points:
- Jabse Mere Dil Ko Uff - Evokes the 1970s style of party tracks that are filled with suspense and romance. Hoto Pe Aisi Baat Leke from Jewel Thief like. Has a decent retro feel to it.
- Allah Jaane - Purely for hardcore Rahat Fateh Ali Khan fans. Reminds us of the saccharine songs of Mausam from last year.

Music: Pritam
Given the hits Pritam has had so far this year, this album is certainly a deviation from that. So much that not a single track is worth a mention. Wonder if Pritam has something good reserved for the big production houses and star-studded films only. Boring album.

Music: Shailendra-Sayanti
A big album, although there is not much novel, quirky or outright terrible. Run of the mill, cliche or boringly unoriginal is what can be called of this apparently ambitious album for a film which stars Farhan Saeed. Farhan Saeed was a former member of Jal, the Pakistani band made famous by Atif Aslam.
Brownie points:
- Pankh Lage Hai - A peppy and young album, has a touch of college life. The opening with a muslim prayer is slightly in stark contrast to the song's carefree nature and it's inclusion is unnecessary
- Tujhe Paya Toh - If you are an absolute fan of Mohit Chauhan, this one is for you.
- Zindagi Kah Rahi Hai - Ditto as above.
