Guyz and gals, Finally we get to hear all the songs. i'm sure there wud b lotta questions in everyone's lips. Like ..is it gonna b the blockbuster music of this yr ? Is it gonna sweep all awards ? Is it better than Lagaan ? Is it more patriotic than ARR's previous ? Is it one of ARR's best works till date? Is it experimental music ?? and so on....Though its pretty too early for one to judge and answer all questions, atleast after first few hearings I can say few things.
Almost all songs are situational songs and hence wud depend a lot on the picturisation in the movie. If the movie bombs the music might be forgotten which I pray shudnt and I hope wudnt. Please don't compare this album to Lagaan. Totally different music. I guess Lagaan had more patriotic feel in its songs than here. Actually apart from mangal mangal I don't hear anything patriotic in any other songs. Which ARR album is not experimental?? He comes up with something experimental in all his albums. And this album doesnt fall short of it. Takey Takey is such a different song. First time I'm sure people would forward it, but this song would grow on u slowly...coming to all the songs - Personally for me Main vari vari is the best...it has a very sweet tune. Its very catchy as some pundits would call. It should be the one in which Rani mukherjee dances and Aamir khan admires her drinking boose in a kota ( jus my imagination guyz )...very good song...has potential of being a chartbuster. holi re falls short of wat i thought it should be. i wanted it to be like the anthem for holi festival, but its rather like another dhandiya song. its still a wonderful song. infact one of the fun songs of the album..i enjoyed this song...udit as usual rocks in this. i dunno y he used daud and dil hi dil mein(kadhalar dhinam) beats :( then comes rasiya....superb experimental song. i dunno whether chartbuster or not, but its sure a treat for ARR fans. It looks like a song where everyone are drunk and are dancing around. has got shades from meenaxi song "badhan dhuan dhuan" and two instrumentals in the same. watch out for the tune and the feel during the line "bigadi banat banat ban gayi gudiya manat manat man gayi...." ...totally mesmerising... now coming to takey takey ...i dunno how to describe this song..its very situational song. shud be one in which some kinda market is shown and wats in the market is being explained. Listen it for urself and u'll feel the same like how i'm feeling. shud be a treat to watch in the movie. Al maddath maula is another song like Zikr in Bose. Has a lot of life in it. Reminds me of one song in saathiya "mera yaar milaade". But nevertheless its a beauty on its own. Nobody can get so much life into songs like how ARR does. Mangal Mangal ...good song to start an album...should be awesome while watching movie. Kailash Kher sings this song with passion. The only patriotic song in this album guyz. its one of the good songs of this album. Keeps repeating in agni and aatma versions. aatma is a slower version but picks up in the end. Overall an album which is sure to grow in you. There is no duet song like "o re chori" or "dekho na". I really wished there was one : (....my ranking of songs starting from BEST to OK ( as there can't be anything called worst songs from ARR ) -- 1) Main vari vari 2) Mangal Mangal 3) Holi re 4) Rasiya 5) Al Maddath Maula 6) Takey Takey I'm sure everyone wud have different opinions. And opinions wud change once movie releases. But more than that I hope there's enuf publicity and also the movie is very well made.
