l From Farida Jalal to Kirron Kher, here are six of our favourite onscreen mothers in Bollywood By Published On :: Sun, 10 May 2020 07:12:27 GMT Mother’s have been an important part of Hindi cinema. Over the years, the portrayal of mothers in Bollywood has been changing. Mothers are given much more importance in cinema than just being a character actor who has to nod to everything the husband or the child says. On the occasion of Mother’s Day, here’s looking at some of the most popular on-screen mothers. Rakhee Her dialogue “Mere Karan Arjun aayenge'' is not something that one will forget anytime soon. She played mother to actors Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan in the hit film Karan Arjun. While Rakhee has played varied roles in her illustrious career spanning over 50 years, when it came to being a mother onscreen she has been seen as a woman of principles including in films like Baazigar, Ram Lakhan, Soldier, Khalnayak and others. Farida Jalal Farida Jalal too has been part of the industry for almost fifty years and continues to impress people with her charm. While the actress has played different kinds of roles, her motherly onscreen figure is the one most remembered by people. From being Shah Rukh Khan’s mother in Duplicate to Kajol’s in Dilwale Dulhania Le Jaayenge, she is the kind of mother who is always ready to make sacrifices for her child. She is also popular for the savage yet emotional grandmother of Jiya from the television series Shararat. Kirron Kher She is often cast as the loud Punjabi mother with a soft heart always caring and worrying about her child. From Dostana, to Hum Tum to Singh is King to Om Shanti Om she was the mother who could also make you laugh with her snarky comments. While she started her career in film in 1983, most of her hit films including Main Hoon Na and Rang De Basanti see her play the role of a mother. Reema Lagoo Best remembered for her role in Tu Tu Main Main, she has largely been seen in Bollywood films playing the emotional mother. She has played mother to most superstars in the late 80s and 90s. She was considered as a "new-age mother" in Hindi cinema. She was low on drama and was not too emotional either, perfectly maintaining the balance between the two. From Hum Saath Saath Hai to Hum Aapke Hai Kaun to Kal Ho Naa Ho, she is the kind of mother you just want to give a hug and say everything will be okay. Jaya Bachchan How can an onscreen mother’s list be complete without Jaya Bachchan. She raised the bar for on-screen mothers with her performance in Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham. The scene with Shah Rukh Khan’s entry in the film will be remembered for Jaya Bachchan’s sixth sense rather than the superstar’s entry. She then went on to ditch the saree and all the parampara and thali and was seen playing a bold single mother in Kal Ho Naa Ho. Ratna Pathak Shah She will always be remembered dearly as Maya Sarabhai who could accept anything else but being middle class. When it comes to playing a mother in Bollywood, she has never been typecast and has shown variety in her characters. In Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na she was the protective and progressive mother to Imran Khan’s character who could not tolerate violence or any unjust activities. She once again played mother to Imran Khan in Ek Main Aur Ek Tu. She was a rich- sophisticated woman yet very different from her character Maya Sarabhai. Meanwhile, she played a middle-class mother to Taapsee Pannu in the film Thappad who worried more about “Log Kya Kahenge”. Let us know your favourites in the comment section. Full Article

l Shilpa Shetty reveals she developed auto-immune disease, suffered miscarriages By Published On :: Sun, 10 May 2020 10:44:39 GMT It is that day when we celebrate motherhood, mothers, their unmatched love and every small and big thing they do for us. Bollywood celebrities have been sharing heart-warming photos and posts on social media, to mark the day. For Shilpa Shetty, however, it is an extra special day since her surrogate daughter Samisha came home a few months back, and she gets to celebrate the day with her two children now! During a recent interview, Shilpa reveald that she always wanted two kids since she knows how impactful having a sibling can be, and did not want son Viaan to grow up alone. However, she developed an auto-immune condition called APLA which caused her miscarriages every time she got pregnant. Before she decided to opt for surrogacy, Shilpa revealed she had also considered adoption as an option and put her name with an organisation for the same. However, it got pushed due to internal disputes and after waiting for four years, her patience got over and she and husband Raj Kundra decided to have a surrogate baby. On Instagram, we keep coming across photos of the happy family, and Viaan always looks excited to have been promoted to a big brother. Happy Mother's Day to you, Shilpa! Full Article
l Ramayan actor Dipika Chikhlia says she would like to play Kaikeyi, Sunil Lahiri'spick is Raavan By Published On :: Sun, 10 May 2020 12:22:51 GMT Actor Dipika Chikhlia, who was seen playing the role of Sita in Ramayan, was introduced to an unmatched popularity that has not faded even today. In an earlier interview, she had revealed how people in the villages would still refer to her as Sita and would even try touching her feet! However, given a choice today, Sita would not be the character she would like to play. In a recent conversation, Dipika revealed she had evolved as an actor, and would rather be interested to play Kaikeyi, lord Ram's stepmother who insisted her husband Dashratha to send Ram, Lakshman and Sita to an exile for 14 years. Dipika added that playing a negative career was an entirely different experience and she was fond of playing roles that let her explore herself as an artist. Actor Sunil Lahiri, who played Lakshman's character, said he'd still pick the same role, but if he had another choice, he would like to get into the shoes of Ravana as the character had many shades and would give an actor many varieties to perform. As the nationwide lock-down began, Doordarshan started re-airing some of its most popular TV shows, Ramayan being the first one. On April 16, it became the world's most watched TV show, with 7.7 crore viewers. Full Article
l Tomorrow X Together drops emotional teaser of 'Can't You See Me' track from The Dream Chapter: Eternity By Published On :: Sun, 10 May 2020 15:16:25 GMT The season of comebacks is here in the K-pop industry! Big Hit Entertainment's rookie group Tomorrow x Together is set for their second comeback this summer. The quartet will complete their trilogy with 'The Dream Chapter: Eternity'. The first teaser of their title track 'Can't You See Me' is here. More than one year after their debut, the boys are all grown up in this comeback. You hear them sing, "Can't you see me? / Like that magical day / Say believe me / Can't you see me?" The five members are seen spending some good times together before everything falls apart. In the end, all of them stand outside a burning house as Soobin is seen screaming! It already looks like the MOAs are in for an emotional rollercoaster ride. The concept trailer had similar emotions - a sense of losing your close friends over the course of time and lost feeling Soobin senses when he gets captured in the glass box. The album is set to release on May 18, 2020. The group, which includes five members - Soobin, Yeonjun, Beomgyu, Taehyun, and Huening Kai, debuted on March 4, 2019, with the EP 'The Dream Chapter: Star' with lead single 'Crown'.

l Music Review: The Dark Side Of Life: Mumbai City By Published On :: Mon, 19 Nov 2018 08:35:56 GMT <strong>EXPECTATIONS</strong> One look at the title <em>The Dark Side of Life - Mumbai City</em> and it seems more apt for a book than a feature film. Nonetheless, that is indeed the case for this film which has a mix of newcomers and experienced actors with Mahesh Bhatt being seen in a crucial part as well. While Azeem Shirazi is the biggest contributor as the lyricist, several composers come together to create half a dozen songs in the film. <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-925603" src="https://www.bollywoodhungama.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/T4.jpg" alt="" width="620" height="450" /> <strong>MUSIC</strong> The kind of sound that kick-starts <strong><em>'Aawargi'</em></strong> reminds one of the kind of music that Vikram Bhatt time and again brings in his films. Jubin Nautiyal is effective as the singer in this Sabir Khan composition which is put together by Azeem Shirazi. The trouble though is that the song sounds dated by at least a decade. Hence, even though it has a soft feel to it, the overall impact is not the kind that makes you revisit it again on loop. The song that follows next is titled <strong><em>'Tu Mujhse Nikalta Nahi'</em></strong> and has the kind of hook-line which is indeed catchy. In a bigger film with a larger setup, this Prakash Prabhakar composed and heard song may well have found good traction. Again, the song is not exceptional but still has that quintessential Bhatt touch to it which makes it stand out. Moreover, Tanveer Gazi puts together a good spin of words, especially the title. Remember <em>'Manali Trance'</em> from <em>The Shaukeens</em>? The song which follows, <strong><em>'Saanp Seedhi Wala Saanp'</em></strong>, is on the same lines and belongs to the trance genre. As a matter of fact Tripty Sinha sings this one too in the same style as that of Neha Kakkar and does manage to make an impact too. It is a new team of composer Sandeep Batraa and lyricists Azeem Shirazi and Ozil Dalal who pair up for this promotional song which is expected to bring in good entertainment quotient. However, a little impact that had been created so far is diluted to a major extent by Rashid Khan composed <strong><em>'Ae Zindagi'</em></strong> which is as sad as it gets. From the composition, writing (Nisar Akhtar) as well as the singing (Altamash Faridi Brothers) perspective, the song is really depressing and just doesn't make you root for it all. A slow moving number that is all about pathos, separation and the fact that life doesn't have much to offer to the protagonists, this one belongs to the quick-skip variety. Another newcomer, Shaan Asif Raj, is the composer for <strong><em>'Muddaton'</em></strong> which starts with the sound of guitar. Seemingly a concert number, this Azeem Shirazi written song is rendered by Amit Mishra. A soft rock number, <em>'Muddaton'</em> tries to bring in the kind of mood that was created by <em>'Sun Raha Hai'</em> [<em>Aashiqui 2</em>]. Though it does fall short, it still makes for a decent hear after all. Had it carried more punch to it, this one could well have found itself a better audience. <strong><em>'Aawargi Deewangi'</em></strong> is the song that concludes the album and its depressing notes do not really help the cause. On the same lines as <em>'Ae Zindagi'</em>, this one is written by Aslam Sani with music by Ahsan Ahmed. There is just nothing in there which arrests your attention and even though Mohammed Irfan is the singer here, you don't really find much entertainment quotient in there. <strong>OVERALL</strong> The music of <em>The Dark Side of Life - Mumbai City</em> is a mixed bag and though there is no real chartbuster out there, two-three songs at least hold your attention while at play. <strong>OUR PICK(S)</strong> <em>‘Tu Mujhse Nikalta Nahi’</em>, <em>‘Saanp Seedhi Wala Saanp’</em>, <em>‘Muddaton’</em> Full Article
l Music Review: Tina & Lolo By Published On :: Mon, 10 Dec 2018 04:05:13 GMT <strong>EXPECTATIONS</strong> After Sunny Deol's delayed releases <em>Mohalla Assi</em> and <em>Bhaiyaji Superhit</em>, it is now time for Sunny Leone's long pending <em>Tina & Lolo</em> to finally see the light of the day. Announced five years back, the film was originally supposed to feature Minissha Lamba with Sunny Leone. However, Karishma Tanna came in place of Minissha, though the film continued to get delayed. Now that it is gearing up for arrival, one waits to see how does the film's music turn out to be. <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-930160" src="https://www.bollywoodhungama.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Music-Review-Tina-Lolo.jpg" alt="" width="620" height="450" /> <strong> MUSIC</strong> Enbee and Ikka (who is also the lyricist) come together as composers and singers for <strong><em>'Dirty Girl'</em></strong>. A fun-n-naughty number that is just in the kind of territory that one expects from a Sunny Leone dance number, this one with Shivangi Bhayana as the female singer has the kind of hook-line which is catchy but that's about it. Otherwise whether it is the beginning or the end of the intermittent rap portion, there isn't much striking about 'Dirty Girl'. On the same lines as <strong><em>'Aaj Blue Hai Paani Paani</em></strong>' [Yaariyaan], <strong><em>'Tension Waali Raat'</em></strong> does fetch your attention. An Arko written and composed song, this one has Neha Kakkar in her element as she goes about singing this one in her own naughty 'andaaz'. Though the choreography and picturisation of the song with Farhad Bhiwandiwala as the other vocalist leaves much to be desired, as a standalone number it does make you play it again. Had the number been released at the time when Sunny Leone was in her prime, this one could well have covered a distance. Last to arrive is the song of seduction, <strong><em>'Raat Ke Saaye Tale</em></strong>', which is rendered by Aakanksha Sharma. A lazy number that has standard lyrics by Rohit Sharma, it also has ordinary music by Raghav Sachar that hardly leaves much of an impression. This one may just about make heads turn if supported by the kind of picturisation that the genre, stage and setting desires. Otherwise as just a musical piece it makes for a one time hear and that's about it Full Article
l Music Review: Gully Boy By Published On :: Mon, 28 Jan 2019 06:17:01 GMT <strong>EXPECTATIONS</strong> When Zoya Akhtar announced <em>Gully Boy</em> with Ranveer Singh, there wasn't much known about what the film would bring on screen. Hence, it was surprise galore for the audiences when Ranveer Singh's rap number introduced the film through a teaser. Now after catching hold of the soundtrack there is another big surprise in store as there are an astonishing 18 songs in there. <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-944920" src="https://www.bollywoodhungama.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Mere-Gully-Mein-Gully-Boy.jpg" alt="" width="720" height="405" /> <strong>MUSIC</strong> Ranveer Singh debuts as a rapper in real life as well, what with as many as five tracks against his name. Amkur Tiwari produced and Spitfire composed and written <strong><em>'Asli Hip Hop'</em></strong> is already a riot for the manner in which Ranveer goes about rendering this one. A hit amongst those who love the underbelly of rap, this is followed by Divine, Naezy and Sez on the Beat's 'Mere Gully Mein' which takes the whole excitement to the next level. It is riotous, ferocious and true to its genre, hence also ensuring very good recall value. Things turn a bit soft though when Ranveer goes on to narrate Javed Akhtar written poem <strong><em>'Doori'</em></strong>. Though this one is a short piece, one feels something is missing as the heart-warming moments had just begun. This is soon followed by a musical piece by Rishi Rich that has added lyrics by Divine. Though one doesn't see this one turning out to be a chartbuster like the first two songs, it should play on well in the film. The team also comes up with <strong><em>'Ek Hee Raasta'</em></strong> and the song adds on to the soundtrack like a scene in a film does to the narrative. Kaam Bhaari & Ankur Tewari write <strong><em>'Kab Se Kab Tak'</em></strong> where latter pairs up with Karsh Kale to put together the composition. Voice of a female is heard in the soundtrack this time around with Vibha Saraf pairing up with Ranveer Singh. While the overall impact is there, the best is reserved for the flagship number <strong><em>'Apna Time Aayega'</em></strong> which is put to tune by Divine & Ankur Tewari. Former's lyrics along with Dub Sharma are truly acidic and one can clearly hear the cry of the underprivileged who wants to do something really good in life. A clear cut chartbuster here. From this point on, Divine and Dub Sharma have a lot to offer in the soundtrack. Former writes lyrics for Chandrashekar Kunder aka Major C composed <strong><em>'Sher Aaya Sher'</em></strong> which is decent but not exemplary. However the ones that indeed makes a mark is their 'Azadi'. A cry of war for freedom from all the boundations, <strong><em>'Azadi'</em></strong> has in it to find some good traction over the next few days. As for Dub Sharma's solo effort <strong><em>'Jingostan'</em></strong> (which plays in two versions), it seems like a bit of noise to begin with but soon you get a hang of it for the sheer spirit that it comes with. When <strong><em>'Train Song'</em></strong> comes, you realize that there is indeed a heavy duty team coming together, what with Raghu Dixit & Karsh Kale singing as well as composing the number along with Midival Punditz. In fact it is rather surprising to see as many as four lyricists collaborating for this one, what with Javed Akhtar, Karsh Kale, Gaurav Raina and Tapan Raj joining hands. There is some 'thehrav' in the proceedings though with Jasleen Royal composing and singing <strong><em>'Jahaan Tu Chala'</em></strong> in her characteristic style. The overall effort is easy on ears as Aditya Sharma's lyrics are simple too and hence have a soothing effect. It is back to business though with Kaam Bhaari composing and writing a namesake number <strong><em>'Kaam Bhaari'</em></strong>. Since this is a new world of rap and something that is far away from being Bollywood, one takes time to adjust to this tune that has Ankur Tiwari pairing up as well. Soon after, he comes along with Mikey McCleary to compose<strong><em> 'Jeene Mein Aaye Maza'</em></strong>, a well-made number where he takes the centre-stage as a lyricist as well as singer. There is also an all-around effort by singer and lyricist Ace who pairs up with ishQ Bector in the music department to bring on <strong><em>'Har Gham Mein Khushi Hai'</em></strong>. The song fits in truly well for the genre that Gully Boy is promoting and hence it turns out to be a rather seamless experience. On the other hand there is Western-Punjabi collaboration next with Prem & Hardeep and putting together a really well composed <strong><em>'Goriye'</em></strong>. A fun number which actually has a Bollywood touch to it as well, it has Arjun, Blitz & Desi Ma coming together with Kaka Bhaniawala and Bhinder Khanpuri. This one is a potential success too and should be unveiled really quick. The soundtrack concludes with Viveick Rajagopalan composed 'tapori' number <strong><em>'India 91'</em></strong> which again belongs to the slum setting that Gully Boy belongs to. There is a huge team of MC Altaf, MC TodFod, 100 RBH, Maharya and Noxious D coming together for this song and one ends up wondering about the real name of any one of these members. <strong>OVERALL</strong> If one has to define the music of <em>Gully Boy</em> in one word, it would be 'trippy'. There has been no precedence of such a soundtrack in Bollywood before and it could well turn out to be a trendsetter if expected by the audience. An experimental score, this one has a few songs in there which are potential chartbusters in the making. <strong>OUR PICK(S)</strong> <em>‘Apna Time Aayega’</em>, <em>‘Asli Hip Hop’</em>, <em>‘Mere Gully Mein’</em>, <em>‘Goriye’</em>, <em>‘Azadi’</em> Full Article
l Music Review: Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga By Published On :: Sun, 03 Feb 2019 11:52:40 GMT <strong>EXPECTATIONS</strong> When the very title of the film is based on a chartbuster from the 90s, you expect the overall soundtrack to be melodious. Thankfully, there is just one composer-lyricist team for this Vidhu Vinod Chopra and Fox Star Studios production and hence you expect certain consistency from Rochak Kohli and Gurpreet Saini. <img class="aligncenter wp-image-949396 size-full" title="Music Review: Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga" src="https://www.bollywoodhungama.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Music-Review-Ek-Ladki-Ko-Dekha-Toh-Aisa-Laga.jpg" alt="Music Review: Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga" width="720" height="450" /> <strong>MUSIC</strong> R.D. Burman and Javed Akhtar's '<em><strong>Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga</strong></em>' is recreated with singer Darshan Raval and Rochak Kohli chips in as well. The very start of the song is quite different and catches your attention. Further to that the manner in which the recreation is done while using the beginning of the original base tune is done impressively as well. Had this song been promoted more aggressively, it could well have gone to a different level altogether since it is sung quite well and is very easy on ears too. The song that follows is a recreation too, this time of Punjabi track '<em><strong>Gud Naal Ishq Mitha</strong></em>'. Set in a 'shaadi-byaah ka mahaul', this one is kick-started by Harshdeep Kaur and soon enough Navraj Hans takes over. The song would be remembered primarily for the energetic moves on display by Anil Kapoor who makes this one his own. Overall, this one is decent enough and though one would still go for the original any time, as a recreation is passes muster too. The voice of Kanwar Grewal hasn't been heard much in a Hindi film song before and in case of this film, it is used for '<strong><em>Chitthiye</em></strong>'. A situational track that comes towards the second half of the film in the midst of a conflict situation, it does well to take the narrative forward but that's about it. With a sad and pensive touch to it, '<em>Chitthiye</em>' aids the storytelling to an extent. Next to arrive is a party song which is titled '<strong><em>House Party Song</em></strong>'. There isn't much recollection power that the song carries, though it does well in going with the situation for which it has been created. Sukhwinder Singh leads the show with Arjun Kanungo and Parry G joining in, and together they ensure that there is some kind of energy flowing when the song plays on. By this time you do get an idea that the music of <em>Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga</em> is by and large situational and the last one to arrive, '<em><strong>Good Morning</strong></em>', pretty much reaffirms that. Vishal Dadlani is joined by newcomer Shannon Donald for this number which is set during that part of the film's narrative when the entire family is coming together for one big celebration. Again, as a part of the film it is okay, though there isn't much about it that you take home as a standalone number. <strong>OVERALL</strong> One expected an out and out melodic score from <em>Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga</em> but barring the title song there isn't much to hum around. Overall, a fair soundtrack with largely situational numbers. <strong>OUR PICK(S)</strong> <em>‘Ek Ladki Ko Dekha’, ‘Gud Naal Ishq Mitha’</em> Full Article
l Music Review: Total Dhamaal By Published On :: Mon, 25 Feb 2019 07:08:07 GMT <strong>EXPECTATIONS</strong> With the film already running in theatres and each of the songs been out one after another, you are pretty much aware about what the music of <em>Total Dhamaal</em> has to offer. Gourov-Roshin are the composers for this soundtrack that is quite snazzy with just four songs in there. <img class="aligncenter wp-image-956955 size-full" title="Music Review Total Dhamaal" src="https://www.bollywoodhungama.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Music-Review-Total-Dhamaal.jpg" alt="Music Review Total Dhamaal" width="720" height="405" /> <strong>MUSIC</strong> It is a retro beginning for <em>Total Dhamaal</em> as Laxmikant-Pyaarelal, Anand Bakshi and Kishore Kumar's <strong><em>'Paisa Yeh Paisa'</em></strong> is recreated by Gourov-Roshin and lyricist Kunwar Juneja. The good part about this recreation is that the core essence of the song has been kept intact right from the 'mukhda' to the 'antara'. While Dev Negi and Subhro Ganguly do well to keep the playful element on, it is Arpita Chakraborty's vocals in the 'antara' portions that really elevate the song further. A good number to hear and enjoy all over again. The next track to follow is a recreation too with Gourov-Roshin and Kunwar Juneja putting together Rajesh Roshan and Usha Mangeshkar's <strong><em>'Mungda'</em></strong>. With Gourov Dasgupta bringing on rap into the song which has been picturised on Sonakshi Sinha, this one actually turns out to be a fast paced entertaining hear that works well even four decades after the original from <em>Inkaar</em> was heard first. Though the song has been slammed by a few, it actually turns out to be a good effort by Jyotica Tangri who is supported well by Shaan and Subhro Ganguly. The song which actually turns out to be the best of the lot is the original number <strong><em>'Speaker Phat Jaaye'</em></strong> that has been written by Kumaar. It is surprising that this one was not the first to be promoted as it actually has a good rhythm to it which places it well as a party anthem. Harrdy Sandhu takes the lead in this club track while being supported by Abuzar Akhtar. As for Aditi Singh Sharma and Jonita Gandhi, they chip in well too hence ensuring that there is no dull moment in there. Play this on in loop and you would be hooked for sure. Last to arrive is the <strong><em>'Theme song'</em></strong>, the sound of which has been heard in the promo of the film. Yet again, it would have actually helped had a music video been created around it and promoted as this one too is fast paced that goes with the film's theme. This one too has a lot of energy to it which is in line with the spirit of the film. Dev Negi takes centre-stage for this song which arrives briefly in the film's narrative and does make its presence felt. <strong>OVERALL</strong> The music of <em>Total Dhamaal</em> fits in quite well with the mood and spirit of the film. Moreover, with audiences appreciating the film, there is further recall on the cards for the music that would only make it further popular. This one is a mood booster. <strong>OUR PICK(S)</strong> <em>‘Speaker Phat Jaaye’</em>, <em>‘Paisa Yeh Paisa’</em>, <em>‘Mungda’</em> Full Article
l Music Review: Luka Chuppi By Published On :: Mon, 25 Feb 2019 07:08:10 GMT <strong>EXPECTATIONS</strong> Well, this could be a record of sorts when an entire soundtrack of a film has been made out of recreated versions. However, this is what happens in case of <em>Luka Chuppi</em> which has five songs in there and each of these has been a hit in its original versions during the last few years gone by. Let's check these out. <img class="aligncenter wp-image-956950 size-full" title="Music Review Luka Chuppi" src="https://www.bollywoodhungama.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Music-Review-Luka-Chuppi.jpg" alt="Music Review Luka Chuppi" width="720" height="405" /> <strong>MUSIC</strong> The only song in the album which has been recreated from a Bollywood flick, <strong><em>'Poster Lagwa Do' </em></strong>is based on <em>'Ye Khabar Chapwado Akhbar Mein'</em> from Akshay Kumar and Urmila Matondkar starrer <em>Aflatoon</em>. This time around the singers at the helm of affairs are Mika Singh and Sunanda Sharma, and both come up with a very energetic outing. White Noise Studios is the force behind the new composition and lyrics, though this version could have done without the brief rap portion. Also the crescendo that picks around 'Ek Ladka Ek Ladki' is a bit odd and avoidable. Tanishk Bagchi, the man responsible for quite a few recreated versions during the last few weeks, picks Tony Kakkar's <strong><em>'Coca Cola'</em></strong> and gives it a new flavour, pun intended. This one is an instant party hit and you want to hit the dance floors while it is on. Tony Kakkar pairs up with Neha Kakkar for this song and also writes lyrics along with Mellow D with Young Desi stepping in for the rap portion, which actually works for this number. In the same mould as the kind of dance numbers that were last seen in Kartik Aaryan's <em>Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety</em>, this is a winner. Things turn sober after a couple of dance numbers with Tanishk Bagchi recreating Goldboy's <strong><em>'Photo'</em></strong>. A love song about remembering the one whom you love most, this one has beautiful and simple lyrics by Nirmaan that add on to the romantic appeal. Moreover, the manner in which Karan Sehmbi sings this one, it turns out to be instantly likeable too. The only regret? This one is way too short in duration as one would have wanted to hear more of it. Celebration number <strong><em>'Tu Laung Main Elaachi'</em></strong> comes in next and Tanishk Bagchi scores well yet again while recreating Gurmeet Singh's<em> 'Laung Laachi'</em> that was originally sung by Mannat Noor. Kunaal Vermaa is the lyricist for the new version that has Tulsi Kumar as the singer. She is just the right choice for this sweet and pleasant sounding number that is set to be a rage all over again up North, given its traditional flavour that is out and out 'desi'. When composer Bob and lyricist Raja came up with <em>'Khaab'</em> a few years back, even they wouldn't have imagined that it would emerge as a major chartbuster with a really good shelf life. This is what has happened now; what with the song finding a new version in the form of <strong><em>'Duniyaa'</em></strong> that indeed has a timeless appeal to it. Akhil, who had sung the original version, returns along with Dhvani Bhanushali and Bhrigu Parashar for this really beautiful love song that has new lyrics by Kunaal Vermaa and music put together by Abhijit Vaghani. A winner all over again! <strong>OVERALL</strong> The music of <em>Luka Chuppi</em> is a major winner with a wide variety to it that should appeal across segments. Agreed that there is no new original number in there but then the packaging of earlier chartbusters ensures that you are hooked right though the proceedings. <strong>OUR PICK(S)</strong> <em>‘Coca Cola’</em>, <em>‘Photo’</em>, <em>‘Duniyaa’</em> Full Article
l Music Review: Badla By Published On :: Tue, 05 Mar 2019 13:35:53 GMT <strong>EXPECTATIONS</strong> From a film like<em> Badla</em>, one expects a few theme songs that would be used for promotional purpose. Since this Sujoy Ghosh directed film is more of a conversational affair, there was never any scope for songs arriving in the course of the narrative. This is what happens too in this soundtrack which has five numbers, all of which are basically theme tracks. <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-961053" src="https://www.bollywoodhungama.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Music-Review-Badla.jpg" alt="" width="720" height="405" /> <strong>MUSIC</strong> It is a sad song that kick-starts the album, what with composer Amaal Mallik bringing on board his brother Armaan Malik for<strong><em> 'Kyun Rabba'</em></strong>. This is a kind of number where lyrics have an important role to play and from that perspective lyricist Kumaar doesn't disappoint. He brings in the right elements of pain, separation and regrets in the song which later arrives in the 'acoustic version' as well and does leave a decent impression. Clinton Cerejo, who has given the fantastic background score of <em>Badla</em>, is the man in charge for the rap track <strong><em>'Aukaat</em></strong>' which plays during the opening credit rolls of the film. Siddhanth Kaushal and Jizzy come together for writing this theme track that has Amitabh Bachchan trying his vocals at rap and actually doing rather well. He is joined by Clinton Cerejo along with Amit Mishra for this thumping number that does well in setting the mood for the film, though doesn't quite carry much of a shelf life. KK's voice is always special and hence when his name appears on the credits for <strong><em>'Tum Na Aaye'</em></strong>, you want to know what does composer Amaal Mallik have to offer. Yet another song about pain associated with separation, this one has sensitive lyrics by A.M.Turaz. That said, with the overall mood and setting being pretty sad and not much promotion to accompany the effort either, <strong><em>'Tum Na Aaye' </em></strong>would largely go unnoticed. Had it been picturised on someone like Emraan Hashmi for a quintessential romantic entertainer, it could have covered a distance. Last to arrive is<strong><em> 'Badla'</em></strong> and this one comes across as a rather weird effort, considering it gets into the zone of <em>'petrol ka daam badla'</em> and stuff alike, which has absolutely nothing to do with the core of the film. Moreover, this effort by composer/singer/lyricist Anupam Roy (who is supported by Manoj Yadav for the lyrics), is rather lazy and lukewarm, hence falling under the quick-skip variety. <strong>OVERALL</strong> The music of <em>Badla </em>doesn't really have much of a recall value, though <strong><em>'Kyun Rabba'</em></strong> may play on for a while. <strong>OUR PICK(S)</strong> <em>Kyun Rabba</em> Full Article
l Music Review: Junglee By Published On :: Thu, 28 Mar 2019 07:49:56 GMT <strong>EXPECTATIONS</strong> With the soundtrack of <em>Junglee</em> arriving on the day of the film's release, there has hardly been any awareness around the music. Moreover, the film is a jungle adventure and hence at best one expects composer Sameer Uddin to have come up with situational numbers. <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-967442" src="https://www.bollywoodhungama.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Junglee-2.jpg" alt="" width="720" height="450" /> <strong>MUSIC</strong> There are only three songs in the album, and the first one is written by Anvita Dutt. Titled <strong><em>'Fakeera Ghar Aaja'</em></strong>, this one is about a man's homecoming and makes for a situational setting. With a decent sound to it, it has some functional rendition by Jubin Nautiyal and just about passes muster. Next to arrive is Kumar Suryavanshi written <strong><em>'Garje Gajraj Hamare'</em></strong> and this one is an ode to elephants. It tries to be all cute and nice with a child accompanying Vidyut as they go around the village. However, the end result is hardly the kind that would make you feel like playing this Navraj Hans, Hamsika Iyer, Abhishek Nailwal and Gulshan Kumar sung number on loop. Kumar Suryavanshi is also the lyricist for last number in the album, <strong><em>'Dosti'</em></strong>. This one actually turns out to be better of the lot with Mohan Kannan's vocals adding to the song's appeal. This one has a kind of setting that Pritam puts together for many a Mohit Chauhan numbers and actually makes for a pleasant hear. <strong>OVERALL</strong> The music of Junglee is by and large forgettable. <strong>OUR PICK(S)</strong> <em>‘Dosti’</em> Full Article
l Music Review: Romeo Akbar Walter By Published On :: Thu, 04 Apr 2019 08:11:07 GMT <strong>EXPECTATIONS</strong> Since <em>Romeo Akbar Walter</em> is basically a spy thriller, music is expected to be primarily an added accessory and not necessary an integral part of the film's narrative. Hence, even though there are five tracks in the John Abraham starrer, one expects a situational score at best. <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-969148" src="https://www.bollywoodhungama.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Romeo-Akbar-Walter-3-1.jpg" alt="" width="720" height="450" /> <strong>MUSIC</strong> First to arrive is a patriotic number <strong><em>'Vande Mataram'</em></strong> which has Shabbir Ahmed composing and writing it. This one has an old fashioned feel to it and goes all the way into the 60s style. Sonu Nigam leads the show as a singer with Ekta Kapoor (not to be confused with the namesake film and TV producer) in this song that is just about okay and doesn't cover the distance. The one that turns out to be quite good though is <strong><em>'Bulleya'</em></strong>. In fact it is surprising that the song wasn't really pumped all over since it had the potential to emerge as one of the major chartbusters of this year. Rendered by Rabbi Shergill (of <em>'Bulla Ki Jaana Mein Kaun'</em> fame), it has Shahid Mallya as his singing partner. A well written number by Ashok Punjabi, it has a very catchy tune by Sohail Sen that belongs to Sufi genre but has been presented in a Bollywood avtar, hence turning out to be an all-around effort. Next to arrive is a romantic number <strong><em>'Jee Len De'</em></strong> which is put to tune by Raaj Aashoo and is written by Murali Agarwal & Shabbir Ahmed. This one has the kind of tune which reminds one of many Emraan Hashmi numbers that were composed a decade back. As a matter of fact the beginning of the song reminds one of Mohd. Rafi's <em>'Teri Pyaari Pyaari Surat Ko'</em> that was picturised on Rajendra Kumar in <em>Sasural</em> [1961]. However, the similarity just stops at the opening line as rest of this Mohit Chauhan rendered track maintains its own identity. <strong><em>'Allah Hoo Allah'</em></strong> comes next and just like <em>'Bulleya'</em>, even this one had the potential to cover some sort of distance. Composed and written by Shabbir Ahmed, this one is crooned by Sameer Khan and is a good qawalli in the offering. In fact it also appears at a good juncture of the film's narrative and is actually one of the few songs in there that really fits in well. Last to arrive is <strong><em>'Maa'</em></strong> which is written by debutant Prince Dubey. An ordinary piece by composer and singer Ankit Tiwari, it has a slow start and stays that way right through its three minute odd duration. An ode to the mother, it is about the protagonist remembering her in the times of pain and sorrow. Though this is a situational number, it actually brings down the film's pace. <strong>OVERALL</strong> With the current trend of number of soundtracks releasing just a day or two before the film's release, it takes time for the music to grow. However, one can expect <em>'Bulleya'</em> and <em>'Jee Len De'</em> to find an audience in the long run. <strong>OUR PICK(S)</strong> <em>‘Bulleya’</em>, <em>‘Jee Len De’</em> Full Article
l Music Review: Kalank By Published On :: Mon, 15 Apr 2019 06:53:16 GMT <strong>EXPECTATIONS</strong> There are huge expectations from the music of <em>Kalank</em>. After it, it sees Karan Johar and Sajid Nadiadwala join hands who bring on board composer Pritam along with lyricist Amitabh Bhattacharya. Moreover, with a stellar cast at its disposal and Varun Dhawan along with Alia Bhatt leading the show, you do expect fireworks. <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-971649" src="https://www.bollywoodhungama.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Kalank-4-2.jpg" alt="" width="720" height="450" /> <strong>MUSIC</strong> First to arrive is <strong><em>'Ghar More Pardesiya'</em></strong> which is set during the Dusshehra sequence in the film. The song helps take the narrative forward for the film as Alia Bhatt meets Madhuri Dixit and then Varun Dhawan for the first time. The well written number has a good metaphorical reference too and Pritam brings a new dimension of his to the fore by putting together this semi-classical track that is very well rendered by Shreya Ghoshal. Later in the soundtrack, a 'radio edit' version appears which has Vaishali Mhade joining Shreya. This one adds to the recall value. Next to arrive is <strong><em>'First Class'</em></strong> and this is also the best song of the soundtrack, what with a peppy tune, catchy lyrics and some 'masti se bharpoor' singing by Arijit Singh and Neeti Mohan. In fact one wonders why this wasn't the first song to be promoted and placed right at the top of the soundtrack. With a start that reminds one of Pritam's own <em>'Afghan Jalebi'</em> [<em>Phantom</em>] and the flow that is on the same lines as <em>'Saree Ke Fall Sa'</em> [<em>R... Rajkumar</em>], <em>'First Class'</em> is a chartbuster with cool rhythm accompanied by the dance moves that have become quite popular. Arijit Singh gets into an altogether different 'avtar' with the title song <strong><em>'Kalank'</em></strong>. This one only adds further class to this album that keeps the fire igniting with every passing number. A heartfelt number with sadness all over it, <em>'Kalank'</em> has brilliant lyrics by Amitabh Bhattacharya that stay with you long after it has been heard first. Moreover, Arijit's rendition is truly the kind that is for a heart which is in pain and that's something which turns out to be the hallmark of the song. There is a duet version too with Shilpa Rao but it's the solo version that stays. Shreya Ghoshal is back as the voice of Madhuri Dixit and she sings <strong><em>'Tabaah Ho Gaye'</em></strong> in a manner that only she can. In fact Pritam too composes this one in a style that is reminiscent of the kind of music that Sanjay Leela Bhansali has in his own films. Musically, this one is on the same lines as <em>'Maar Daala'</em> [<em>Devdas</em>] though this one does manage to bring in its own individuality as well, hence lending a good impression. There is certain sadness and pain in Shreya's voice which compliments the situation that Madhuri Dixit finds herself in the film, and that works. <strong><em>'Aira Gaira'</em></strong> comes next a couple of times and this is the much talked about song-n-dance appearance of Kriti Sanon. Sung by Antara Mitra, this one actually reminds one of the kind of songs that Rekha Bhardwaj has sung in quite a few films. A high on energy number, this one actually reaches its crescendo when Javed Ali and Tushar Joshi pair up to provide vocals for Varun Dhawan and Aditya Roy Kapur in the film. In a style that has its base in the 40s and the 50s, this one needed more time for promotion in order to reach out to the audiences much quicker. The album concludes with Jonita Gandhi going solo for <strong><em>'Rajvaadi Odhni'</em></strong>. This one too has its base in Sanjay Leela Bhansali style of music and again it is surprising that the song wasn't promoted much in advance. A song which actually kick-starts the film and introduces Alia Bhatt to the audience, this one is picturised as well as placed well in the film. A catchy number that has the feet tapping. <strong>OVERALL</strong> Pritam comes up with a very good soundtrack for <em>Kalank</em> and is helped a great deal by lyricist Amitabh Bhattacharya. Moreover, there is a consistency of sound right through half a dozen odd songs that feature in the soundtrack. Even though the film is set in the 40s and the music compliments that era as well, even today's audience can well be entertained. <strong>OUR PICK(S)</strong> <em>‘First Class’</em>, <em>‘Kalank’</em>, <em>‘Tabaah Ho Gaye’</em>, <em>‘Rajvaadi Odhni’</em> Full Article
l EXCLUSIVE: Writer Kanika Dhillon bags Shah Rukh Khan-Rajkumar Hirani's next! By Published On :: Sun, 10 May 2020 08:10:29 GMT Shah Rukh Khan’s last film, Zero, released in December 2018 after which he went on a long sabbatical. He has been reading scripts and even shortlisted a few of them. Meanwhile, the names of a lot of filmmakers did the rounds with whom the superstar was supposedly working with. However, of late, it has come to light that SRK is working with blockbuster filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani in his next directorial flick. Recently, while answering a fan question, he also let out a strong hint that he has indeed given his nod to Rajkumar Hirani’s flick. And naturally, it led to a lot of excitement among fans. While not much is known about the film and its subject, Bollywood Hungama has exclusively learnt that for this venture, Rajkumar Hirani and his frequent collaborator writer Abhijat Joshi have been joined by Kanika Dhillon. She has become quite well known of late thanks to her work in films like Manmarziyaan (2018), Kedarnath (2018), Judgmentall Hai Kya (2019) and the web film Guilty (2020). Interestingly, in the beginning of her career, she had extensively worked with SRK’s Red Chillies Entertainment. She worked as an assistant director on SRK’s 2007 blockbuster Om Shanti Om. She wrote the screenplay of Ra.One (2011) and additional screenplay of Always Kabhi Kabhi (2011). Rajkumar Hirani’s next hence marks Kanika’s reunion with Shah Rukh and Red Chillies Entertainment after almost 9 years. A source close to the project says, “Kanika Dhillon has come on-board and she along with Rajkumar Hirani and Abhijat Joshi are busy scripting the film. Kanika is mainly scripting while Rajkumar and Abhijat are helping her with inputs. They are hoping to finish in a month or two. The film was to go on floors in August but due to the lockdown, it seems that the shoot will be pushed ahead.” Rajkumar Hirani’s last film, Sanju, released in 2018 and was based on the controversial life of actor Sanjay Dutt. Starring Ranbir Kapoor, this flick emerged as the biggest hit of that year, earning Rs. 342.53 crores. Hirani, in fact, holds the envious record of not giving a single flop as a director. The source assures, “His film with Shah Rukh Khan too seems to be shaping up well, at the writing stage. And Rajkumar-Abhijat-Kanika collaboration has added a lot to the script and it’ll be something to watch out for.” Also Read: Post Manmarziyaan, Taapsee Pannu and Kanika Dhillon reunite for Haseen Dillruba Full Article
