Film: "Bhool Bhulaiya"; Music Director: Pritam; Singers: K.K.,
Neeraj Sridhar, Tulsi Kumar, Shaan, M.G. Sreekumar, DJ Amyth, DJ
Kiran, DJ G & Earl; Rating: *** The music album of "Bhool
Bhulaiya" is an absolute listener's delight. Composed by Pritam
and with lyrics by Sameer, the soundtrack is a pleasure to listen
to and would definitely rope in huge profits.
The title track is doing wonders on the small screen. "Bhool
Bhulaiya" is a peppy track rendered by Neeraj Sridhar of Bombay
Vikings fame. The song has a vibrant and lively feel to it, making
it a 'sing-along' kind of number. The Hinglish track is pretty
different from the usual lot. There's also a lot of energy
associated with the phrase "Hare Ram Hare Krishna".
K.K. takes over the reins of "Allah hafiz", an enjoyable number
that has the right zing at the right places. It has punch and
perkiness and would surely get the thumbs up from audiences.
"Labon ko" might sound like a Pritam number but isn't the kind one
expects in a Priyadarshan flick. But the track does make for a good
hear. With its slight sufi touch, it reminds you very minutely of
tracks from "Life In A Metro", though many may not agree.
An unheard combination of Tulsi Kumar and Shaan makes way for
"Let's rock soniye", a song that has a mega-party tag to it. Even
though one has heard similar tracks in the past, the song makes its
mark as Pritam puts in a lot of ingredients together to create a
fun, dance number on the lines of "Mahi ve".
Pritam ropes in Shreya Ghoshal and M.G. Sreekumar for "Mere
dholna". A decent song, this number is average compared to the rest
of the tracks but still manages to hold its own as its genre seems
to be of a different kind.
"Sajda", crooned by K.K., cannot be termed an out-and-out hit as it
lacks that slight zest.
Another average track comes in the form of "Sakhiya". Tulsi Kumar
gets to go solo in this number where she does a good job but it
also makes one wonder if it might have been better with Shreya
behind the vocals. With rhythm as its base, the song would appeal
to a certain group of masses.
"Bhool Bhulaiya" doesn't falter much and the entire album turns
out to be a great package. Pritam gets his notes right, making it a
much awaited film too.
