Medley Melody


The coming together of a supremely talented yet scoffed at music director/producer/composer, a promising lyricist with no star wattage as yet (apparently armed with a Ph.D in Hindi), a director who one could sue for not having lived up to all his promises produces a gem that in my book could collapse under its own weight and features a truly outstanding male chorus padding up one of the most musically/vocally challenged yet popular singers of the times; to be redeemed later for our good health by a crooner whose unplugged version is a masterclass in playback singing.

........................................................Tu Jaane Na
...................................................................................Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani (2009)




strings-on-skin has never disappointed me; quite easily one of the better tracks in a long long time.
