Veer Zaraa disappoints. Review on Veer-Zara Songs

VEER ZARAA DISAPPOINTS

The most awaiting soundtrack of the year Veer Zaraa has released....But frankly speaking it disappoints.

Veer Zaraa album is composed by Late Madan Mohan and recreated by his son sanjeev Kohli.On hearing the songs it is clear that the songs might have been modified.

Tere liye - Lata Mangeshkar, Roopkumar Rathod

The tune that is played in the Promos...Tere liye starts of very well..a nice and catchy melody.

The piano piece in the song is amazing and also the flute is used in a effective manner...a very touching emotional track..wonder how it is picturised!!

But as it progresses it becomes very slow …When I heard this song for the first I wondered who has sung it..initially I thought it was adnan sami but it is Roopkumar rathod and he does a yeoman service…

Lata Mangeskar finds it difficult to sing this one..anyway.. average job from her(though most of you might disagree)..

Javed Akthar does what he is expected to do...On the whole a nice track...for melody lovers.

tere liye hum hain jiye hoto ko siye

tere liye tere liye

Rating: 4/5

Main yahaan hoon - Udit Narayan

This one is my favorite track in the album..But it has yash chopra label in it.. Sure they have altered the tune to blend it with yash chopra's film..watch out for the loops used in this song..

Udit Narayan..who is currently the best singer(though sonu nigam gives him tight competition) has rendered with utmost perfection..

But what disturbs me in this song is the tune that appears after the line..Kaisi sarhadein kaisi majbooriyan Main yahan hoon yahan hoon yahan hoon yahan reminds me of bally sago- laung gawacha or is it Madan mohan's song remixed by bally sagoo???or is it used cause its a popular punjabi number??

Again after the line''Sun sako toh suno dhadkanon ki zabaan

Main yahan hoon yahan hoon yahan hoon yahan'' the tune reminds me of ''pyar kiya to nibana'' from major saab...so whatz happening??...Sanjeev kohli's effort??

But whatever maybe this song is gonna become a huge hit..

And the best part of the song is its https://lyrics..Javed Akthar is sure to win the Filmfare award either for this film or swades..

Jaanam dekhlo mit gayin dooriyan

Main yahan hoon yahan hoon yahan hoon yahan

Rating 4/5

Yeh Hum Aa Gaye Hain Kahaan - Lata Mangeshkar, Udit Narayan

Another romantic track sounds like typical yash chopra's song..This song is liked on instant hearing...though the song might be liked by all nothing new is offered to listeners..

There is a nice piano and flute tune..and is worth mentioning..

Udit and Lata have done decent job..The lyrics are adequate.

Lehrate huyin rahe kole hyuin he bahe

yeh hum aa gaye kahan

Rating 4/5

Do Pal - Lata Mangeshkar, Sonu Nigam

This track will take back to you to the 1950-60's style of composing and renderation of the song...Infact I was surprised to hear this track..though the track is good it is OUTDATED...

Sonu is marvellous he is simply outstanding..song by song he is getting better..lata is decent

This track is very slow might not be liked by all infact one may tend to skip this track...

do palkon khwabon ka karobar

aur phir chal diye tum kaaha tum kaaha

Rating 3/5

Aisa des hai mera - Lata Mangeshkar, Udit Narayan, Gurdas Mann, Pritha Majumder

The song starts with Gurudas mann’s vocals…”kina sonna des hai mera” and is continued by udit where he praises India…Momentum begins when gurudas sings in Punjabi…

Later lata mangeskar joins and points of similarity between India and its neighbouring country.. Preetha Mazumdar chips in with few lines

Javed always scores in these types of songs…sample this

Mere des mein mehmaanoko bhagwan mana jata hai

Wo yehi ka ho jata hai jo kahin se bhi ata hai

Lata obviously singing for priety (Pakistani) replies..

tere des ko maine dehka tere des ko maine jaana

jaisa des hain tera

On the whole a strictly ok song..

Rating 3/5

Kyon Hawa - Lata Mangeshkar, Sonu Nigam (With Commentary By Yash Chopra)

Ok this one is a irritating song, why I say is cause of Yash chopras so called commentary…

After you hear his voice for almost a minute and a half you tend to lose interest to listen to this song...

Another slow song with forgettable tune..and average singing by lata..sonu is good..

kyu hawa aaj yu gaa rahe hai

chandini din mein kyu chaa rahe hai

Rating 2/5

Hum To Bhai Jaise Hain - Lata Mangeshkar

Lata Mangeskar finds very difficult to sing this song but thats due to age factor.

This song is similar to mere khwabon mein jo aaye from DDLG

The lyrics are sweet capturing girls feeling..The tune is quite catchy…but again nothing new to offer same type of instruments, same plot, same result..

Hum to bhai jaise hain waise rahenge

samje na samje koi hum yehe kahege

Rating 2.5/5

Aaya Tere Dar Par - Ahmed Hussain, Mohd. Vakil, Javed Hussain

This one is a typical qawalli nuber that has always been used in hindi films..

It is nothing but rehash of 4-5 other qawalli numbers..nothing different, no experimentations…

They have followed the rigid pattern of maintaing the same qawalli even the dholaks and their beats are same…Nothing new…All the singer a bunch of them deliver what they are expected to do…

aaya tere dar par deewana

tere ishq mein hai….

Rating 2/5

Lodi - Lata Mangeshkar, Udit Narayan, Gurdas Mann

So Gurudas mann so another Punjabi number..i liked this one very much, it is quite exciting and energetic number..Lyrics by javed akthar are awesome..

Gurudas mann has fantastic voice…Lata Mangeskar again sounding average…udit is good…

The instruments used in this song are the same as other typical Punjabi songs..

On the whole a nice track will be liked and appreciated…waiting to see the picturisation.

lo aagye lodi ve

joot na bole ve

Well, couldn’t write more my Punjabi is bad, u know!!
