What do you expect from the man with a golden music Himesh Reshammiyya? Hit music isn’t it? And this generous music director grants our wishes in a flash of his magical music wanton. So get ready to enjoy some of the heartthrobs of tomorrow.

Himesh sounds like Anu Malik in this album. It may be due to a compulsion from the famous director duo Abbas- Mustan. But his unique musical quality is not lost. The opening track itself stands testimony for this fact.

‘Dil Ne Kar Liya’ introduces us to a new music style. Udit Naryan and Alka Yagnik give it their best shot.  Sudhakar Sharma’s lyrics lack class. But Reshammiyya covers up all those blemishes with his enthralling musical arrangement.

Next track ‘Pyaar Kar’ too comes close to Reshammiyya’s popular numbers. Shaan, Udit Narayan and Kavita Krishnamurthy croon this romantic track. Rather than the first song this number carries more importance thematically. The story moves forward through this track.

After some of the above average numbers it is the turn of hit tracks. They come one after another. Let us take these songs one by one. First of the lot is ‘Tune Zindagi Mein Aake’. Udit Narayan renders this passionate love track with the same intensity and passion. The electronic guitar sounds after each line as if to draw our attention to the feelings expressed through these lines. Lyrics perfectly project the obsessive love of the lead character.

Those who love the loud versions of music may have a liking for this highly rhythmic western track ‘Bardasht’. Like ‘Khallas’ and ‘Kambhakht Ishq’ this song too rides over its catchy beats. Item song specialist Sunidhi Chauhan lends her voice to both the original and remixed versions of this song. KK lends her support in the original version whereas Sonu does so in the remixed version. Overall this song is going to fire up the musical charts shortly.

‘Sanam Mere Humraaz’ grabs your heart with its lyrical quality. Sudhakar Sharma’s lyrics can make the likes of Gulzar and Javed Akhthar proud. Reshammiyya adorns it with his captivating music. To add to the appeal the haunting sound of guitar plays throughout this number. Kumar Sanu and Alka Yagnik do their bit to assure its success.

‘Life Ban Jayegi’ provides a grand finale to this musical feast. It is a wedding song that celebrates the union of hearts. Embellished in Punjabi style this song adds extra pep and zing to this track. Sonu Nigam sings his heart out in this number. So does Jaspinder.

Once again Mr. Reshammiyya hits the bulls eye with his composition. There is no doubt whatsoever in the minds of listeners about the fate of these tracks. They are going to be played over and over again in each nook and corner of India.
