It's the season of infidelity. After a thunderous response to No Entry, fasten your seat belts to witness one more hilarious take on infidelity that has triple the 'masti' than a 'Masti' or a 'No Entry'. That's because while Lara Dutta and Bipasha Basu played femme fatale in three men's lives in the aforementioned movies, in Shaadi No. 1 there are three ladies doing the honors – Ria Sen, Aarti Chabbaria and Sophie.
Men who fall to their charms? Fardeen Khan, Zayed Khan and Sharmaan Joshi! Women who want to save their marriage and call it 'Shaadi No. 1'? Ayesha Takia, Esha Deol and Soha Ali Khan.
Man who helps the ladies in doing so? Sanjay Dutt in yet another comic role!
Producer and director at the helm? Vashu Bhagnani and David Dhawan, who return after a hiatus to recreate No. 1 magic.
With Anu Malik and Sameer pairing up for the music, one expects a rollicking tuneful ride.

First song 'Chand Ko Tod Doonga' begins and sets an expectation right away. Don't expect anything melodious or award winning tracks from the album. Instead get set for a fun ride that would make you tap your feet and enjoy the song. Theme of the track, which is sung vibrantly by Abhijeet and Anuradha Sriram is simple - "I am gonna leave everything if you say yes, even the lady I am presently going around with". Now a deal couldn't get any more straight forward and honest than this. And just imagine that till last week we thought 'live-in' relationships were cool! A purely mass oriented song, don't get anywhere near the song if you haven't liked the soundtrack of Coolie No.1, Judwaa or No Entry!!

'Jitne Channel TV Ke, Utne Nakhre Biwi Ke' – now do you need any more details about the genre and the content of this album? With 'bhangra' beats and rap-n-reggae accompanying lyrics like 'TV chale remote se, biwi chale remote se', you very well know how serious is the situation, for which the tune has been composed. Sung by Sonu Nigam and Krishna, it is a kind of track that guarantees some lively & funny picturisation that should do well on the screen; though don't expect yourself humming this track on the streets.

Indian Idol finalist Rahul Vaidya makes his debut with 'God Promise Dil Dola', yet another 'Beat 1-Beat 2' number around the theme of 'I fell in love with you at the first sight'. One doesn't really need to talk much about the talent of Rahul as it is world known since the Indian Idol days. He makes a confident debut and adapts himself well to the 'latka-jhatka' stuff that Anu Malik makes him do for his first ever song, which is quite reminiscent to 'Dil To Dil Hai' from recently released 'No Entry'. Shreya Ghoshal gives Rahul company in this duet and plays her part well
 

Cheers, because Rahul Vaidya gets to sing yet another track this time along with yet another Indian Idol finalist Prajakta Shukre who bags her debut playback song as well. Both singers make a fresh pairing for 'Hello Madam', a rollicking party dance number. Rahul Vaidya is particularly impressive as he sings like a pro with at least a few dozens songs behind him. And yes, his 'inspired' singing as per Sonu Nigam style is quite apparent, but he does such a good job in doing it that it doesn't sound annoying at all.

'Dil Nahin Toda Kar Te' has a simple tune which is almost like a nursery rhyme. Sung by Shaan and Sunidhi Chauhan, it is average though with a lively effect. A 'roothna-manana' track, it doesn't make for a potential chartbuster but nevertheless settles down as a passable tune. In fact none of the tracks so far have HIT written over it but still enable 'Shaadi No.1' to be a decent time pass album.

Signature tune at the beginning of 'Aiyaashi' is what gives the song an interesting beginning. The only song written by Shabbir Ahmed and composed by DJ Aqueel and Sanjeev, it also has the two composers giving company to Shaan in singing for the track. A fast paced track with liberal dose of musical instruments thrown in, it too settles down as an average to above average tune without promising any earth shattering reception to the album.

Overall 'Shaadi No.1' has some fine time pass situational songs that may just about look fine in the movie if treated well. But in terms of a listener going all out for listening to the album as and when getting an opportunity doesn't sound too feasible as there is no single track that has a power to setting the charts on fire. An average soundtrack from Malik-Bhagnani-Dhawan when one expected much-much better!
