Jaal Music Review
Poor - that is what music score of Jaal stands for !!
Sad - this is what a listener's state of mind is after hearing to Jaal !!!
Confused - the reviewer who is amazed with the remarkable range of Anand Raaj
Anand who can compose a Kaante or a Gunaah or a Sandhya, but also a Jaal !!!
Worried - the music industry should be with albums like this hitting the stores
!!!
Ideally this sums up the review, but professional compulsions force one to write
in detail about each song. So here we go !!!
Jaal (and if we didn't know what Jaal means, it is suffixed with - THE TRAP) is
an action movie produced by Vinod Shah and Harish Shah. Directed by action
movies specialist Guddu Dhanoa (famous for his hundreds of cars exploding in the
skies), JTP has music by ARA and lyrics by both Sameer and ARA. Tabu pairs up
with Sunny Deol in an action movie again after Himmat, Jeet and Maa Tujhe Salaam
whereas Raima Sen plays the second lead -Raima Sen who has given a superhit
Tamil movie 'Minnale' (later remade as RHTDM with Diya Mirza) and a super-flop
Hum Ho Gaye Aapke.
As it may be some kind of diktat that the distributors may be forcing on all the
producers of a Sunny Deol starrer, even JTP has a deshbhakti song/bhangra/or
whatever in the shape of 'Indian Indian Sher Dil Indian' by ARA himself.
Pleeeeease, but for swarg's sake, we had enough of all this patriotic fare in
songs coming with Gadar, Maa Tujhe Salaam, Bhaarat Bhagya Vidhaata, TLOBS,
Shaheed, Ek Hindustaani and some more. A typical deshbhakti composition, it
offers nothing great and just passes on.
Romantic numbers do no better with some painfully slow tracks like 'Jo Pyaar
Tumne' and 'Humsafar Ke Liye'. One is especially shocked to hear Tabu rendering
something which sounds like 'I Love You' towards the end of 'Humsafar Ke Liye'
in a screaming tone. Mainly sung by Alka Yagnik, you can just skip this one to
avoid an embarrassment to yourself on hearing Tabu. 'Jo Pyaar Tumne' is an
attempt to be an icy cold number in the Swiss alps. Sung by Chitra and KK, it
tries to be another 'Ye Hasi Wadiyaan' from Roja, but just FAILS.
'Pehla Pehla Pyaar' has Kumar Sanu crooning sentiments of a person who had had
his first love. Well, but for how many more years will our macho Sunny papaji
keep on encountering his first love. Though the composition is just about OK,
one won't miss the song of the century if he avoids this one. Newcomer Saswati
Phukan teams up with Udit Narayan in 'Ek Ladki Bas Gayi Mere Mann Mein'. An
average number by all means, there isn't anything great about this composition
too. The number tries to be melodious but just doesn't impress. Well, Sunny Deol
is here so there should be a bhangra track too. This resurfaces through 'Sona
Sona Soniye' by Udit Narayan |
