This cricket mania flick ‘Chain Kulii Ki Main Kulii’, has its music done by the exceptionally gifted musical pair Salim-Sulaiman who have a host of chart-buster hits to their credit. However, the soundtrack of this flick has been hardly publicized before its release. The music album for this film was out only a couple of days back before the film’s release. It will be interesting to note if this film’s tracks prove to be another feather on this musical duo’s cap.

The title track ‘Chain Kulli Ki Main Kulli’ done by Kunal Ganjawala is a techno track with fast beats to create a stimulating effect. Embedded with loads and loads of attitude, this song has Kunal Ganjawala crooning in a lower middle scale so as to make the song easily accessible for the kids. This track, which is laced with grand orchestration, also includes techno keyboard fillers, drum rolls and brass sections that readily appeals to the kids and makes it all the more hummable.

The next track, ‘Dhoom Dhadaka’ has Kailash Kher lending his voice. This is a Bhangda-dhamaal track that is very high on power. The foursome Hrishikesh Kamerkar, John Stewart, Mangal Mishra and Salim Merchant support Kailash with their backup vocals in this quintessence Punjabi song. The tempo of this track has unforced interplay of rustic dhol, clap-beats and raw vocals to further pep it up. It’s a voice n rhythm based track, with sporadic keyboard notes stuffed in. This is a complete fun song that is sure to make the listeners groove.

The next track is something that the music lovers will relish. For this track Salim-Sulaiman opts the original evergreen voice of the legendary Kishor Kumar. The track  ‘Hum The Who Thi Aur Sama Rangeen Samajh Gaye Na’ is fused popular musical beats of the present age. On one hand, this track is stuffed with keyboard fillers while on the other hand, it has some incongruous sound effects like a burp with which the song concludes. The very feel of this track suggests that this is particularly designed for the kids. So enjoy.

Another evergreen number, ‘Ichak daana beechak daana’ finds its place in the album in which the original voice of the singers - Mukesh and Geeta Bali has been sustained. The cadence has been jazzed up and the beat has been made fast and simple without excessive tone alterations. The song bursts out with the original dholak-manjeera permutation and also uses modern-day brass segment. The original tunes have been well fused with the modern day keyboard stuffing. This track is coated with brainteasers and also has a chorus by the children. This surely is one of the fun tracks of the flick.

The next track ‘Khula Aasman’ voiced by KK is one of the best and original songs of the soundtrack. It is a soft rock number that is beautifully inter-weaved with piano, electric guitar, acoustic guitar drums, rolls and melodious vocals. This song climbs from middle octave to high-pitched thrill with great élan. There is a note of novelty in this track that truly refreshes up our minds.

Next follows ‘Sunday’, which is another attitude packed track for the kiddies. There is a good dosage of light-hearted violin strums, shrill trumpet notes, queering brass, funny vocals and a group of child vocalists pouring their hearts out in full madness. It is a very light-hearted track that will go down really well with all those mischievous kids looking out for some real fun.

The soundtrack of ‘Chain Kulli Ki Main Kulli’ deserves a huge applause for the way it turns out to be. A more belligerent promotional campaign of this album would have stirred waves in the musical domain. Its original tracks are just as commendable as the old ones that have been ushered in a new life by the wholesome twosome Salim-Sulaiman. Overall a good buy for the mummies to treat their little ones.
