Badhaai Ho Badhaai is a movie starring the old but looks young(ish) Anil Kapoor, the very good dancer Shilpa Shetty and and the very pretty Kiriti Reddy-though she does not seem all that-I mean what is up with those glasses shes wearing! Anyways the movie seems to be releasing in June/July. But the music is out!
The music is composed by one of my favourite music directors, that is Anu Malik. The singers that he has used in this album are my favourites too: Sukwinder Singh, Alka Yagnik, Shaan, Sundhi Chuahan, Sonu Nigam and Udit Narayan. So that is a wide rande of singers and all in all there are six songs. The title song: Badhaai Ho Badhaai, which is being shown in the promos along with Jogan constantly. This song is really fun and has a very pleasing and exciting feeling to it. The song has been sung by Udit Narayan-he has sung this well. The promos of this song seem really sweet and colourful; this song would be a real treat with Anil Kapoor dancing on screen.
The next song which I’m sure all of you must have heard if not then turn your t.v. or radio on because it is constantly on there...Iam talking about Jogan! This track is by far the best song in the album and probably would be the best picturised song in the movie too. As there are lots of things taking place in the background along with Shilpa Shetty dancing (and she is brilliant-as always!) This song is certainly exciting and has a very good tune to it and always makes me want to get up and dance. The song also has a good mixture of Indian culture, though in some places there are some cheesy bits through the music; but you forget this as the song continues on. I love the ending of this song as there is Sukwinder Singh’s alaap in the end and it sounds beautiful!
Next is another one of my favourites, Teri Zingdagi Mein Pyaar... is this is sung by Alka Yagnik who has a the sweetest voice after Lata Mangeshkar. She has sung this song really well. Though this is a simple song, you can love it as much as any of the other songs.
Raag Banke Pyaar Chhaya has a very South-Indian kind of theme to it, but it is something completely different to all the other songs featured in this track. This track is sung by Alka Yagnik and Udit Narayan who make a good pair and this shows in this track.
Thero Zara, is a humble tune sung by both Alka Yagnik and Sonu Nigam, but it seems a bit of a old tune, something like two years ago. But the main tune seems similar to Teri Zingdagi...The main music seems to start after the first verse, and the song overall is slow; but as mentioned it is not too bad.
Last but not the least is Dil Vich Vich Rukda. This song has the remix/Punjabi mix to it. It is a song that you could dance to on a party or wedding. The only bad aspect of this song is that Anu Malik has done that computerised voice (which he used a few years back) which sounds a bit stupid. But Sonu Nigam is the main aspect if the song as he is really good.
Overall this album is not bad, actually it is pretty good, if songs like Jogan and Teri Zindgadi...were not present; then this album would be a miss for sure. This album does have all types of sons: like a masala tune: Jogan and then a Punjabi tune like Dil Vich... So go on and treat yourself to a Jogan!
