Shan, is improving day by day, some times he sounds nasal, like his collegues from bengal, sanu, and babul, other time he is good!!

his range is expanding too, from, pop and rock, like dch, nikkama or bardasht(one of two, other k.k), to recent singing in JISM, listen to him, in JADU HAI NASHA HAI, he aounds out of this world...

btw!! udit in ghazal style in jusm is excellent too..i dont hear him in that mode..

Another singer, that is imho, getting better and versatile, from ghazal/pop, to main stream is ROOP KUMAR RATHOD, his singing in RHTDM, KAREEB, FILHAL(KK was very good too), JISm etc! He is EXCELLENT!!His range is EXPANDING, he is basically a Ghazal singer..

Too much, CHITRA , I could not digest in MPKHD!! she sounds shrieky at time, others, sweet and mellow..

Shan and KK r GOOD as usual..

Sunidhi, as usual, is her POO self, she does sound like her in 2 songs she does!!

Now after listening to CC, MPKHD sounds blessing(better)

MSAMD, is not bad!! but it is not going to work! u know why? Film is not going to make it..No one is going to buy that album, with AB jr, lara face value!

MPKHD, i liked, Songs..3, 9(ajnabee, sad version, good music arrangements), 9 and 10, I guess( Bhatke panchi and the next, One is GOOD too..

So, length, goes against good percentage here, 4-5/11 :baaa:

QAYAMAT and PARWANA are absolute Shits!FLOP ALERT!

Chalte Chalte was a piece of crap. SRK needs to get his ears checked. Aadesh Shrivastava doing 5 songs? What was he thinking? Not even CLOSE to previous Aziz Mirza films.

even radiosargam, rediculed it:

BTW!! they gave 9/10 for QAYAMAT???I am saying..tauba tauba!!

CHALTE CHALTE: SOUNDTRACK!

"Shah Rukh Khan and Rani Mukherjee star togther for the first time a FULL feature length film...."

Jatin-Lalit's music is easy on the ears but disappoints heavily...

Superstar Shah Rukh Khan and lovable Rani Mukherjee are paired together for the first time in a full feature length movie. Two or three songs make you think, the rest get swept away...

6/10

Even, 2 J-L tracks, 1,3 are decent, 3rd is instrumental, of track 3, so dedicated to J_L, too

say what you may and even personally i like MPKDH...there is no one as Repetitive yet awesome as NS...i know from experience that NS sell like hot cakes and are untouchable i can tell you that Andaaz and Qayamat have sold more CDs than any other film this year in the UK and those two along with Footpath will go on to sell for years to come...There is still Demand for Kasoor, Raaz, Ek rishtaa, Dhadkan,HMBPK on a weekly basis ..........Quite simply NS are years ahead sales wise than any other composer..FACT

Ask any retailer in the UK to confirm what i have said Qayamat 10/10

In UK, things like YAADEIN, YRHPK etc Sells like hot cakes, so N-S r not much different!!

QAYAMAT is a CRAP, 5/10, is Ok with me, I'll add +1 for ANDAAZ!!

SD's PARWAANA, is DISASTOUR, PB gives it 2.5/10, well, if that sells in UK too, GOOD FOR YOUR BUISNESS, LOL!!

This film is supposedly a copy of the Hollywood flick, "The Rock" and songs probably don’t really have a place in the story. Even with this caveat, Qayamat’s soundtrack is decidedly average. It is a testament to Ranjit Barot’s talent as an arranger that he is able to transform Nadeem-Shravan’s stale tunes into aurally pleasurable experiences; And that is exactly what he does in two of the seven songs.

The first is the seduction number, "Yaar Pyaar Ho Gaya", sung sensuously by Alisha Chinai, with able support from Abhijeet. The steady drum rhythm and piano backdrop is contrasted by some frenzied light percussion, giving Nadeem-Shravan’s tune a much needed face-lift! Alisha’s singing is particularly good. Her return to playback singing is definitely welcome. Nadeem-Shravan seem to have recycled one of their tunes from the recent album, Yeh Dil.

Barot works his magic on the title track, "Qayamat Qayamat", as well. The arrangements are more dance orientated this time with a more electronic sound. Sonu Nigam lifts the song even further with his brilliant vocals, but the usually dependable Hema Sardesai sounds unbearably shrill!

The rest of the songs are arranged by Nadeem-Shravan regular, Naresh Sharma. The best of which is clearly the peppy, "Mera Dil, Dil Tu Lele", which has a ‘60’s vibe to it. Shaan musters up an energetic and expressive rendition, totally eclipsing co-singer, Mahalaxmi Iyer. This song actually has repeat value, despite Sameer’s insipid lyrics. In fact, the lack of ingenuity and effort on Sameer’s part is a major contribution to this album’s mediocrity.

Kumar Sanu and Alka Yagnik sing well in "Woh Ladki Bahut Yaad Aati Hai", but the song is a rehash of countless other Nadeem-Shravan-Sameer banalities. The solo version by Kumar Sanu is no more appealing.

Abhijeet and Kavita Krishnamurthy display major vocal control in "Dil Chura Liya". Both singers hit the high notes with practiced ease but the track lacks melody, making it sound more like a vocal exercise than a song.

The overly melodramatic high notes of "Aitbaar Nahi Karna" make sitting through this number rather taxing. Abhijeet and Sadhana Sargam give excessively emotional performances at the microphone for this bland and forgettable track. Abhijeet’s solo version just prolongs the torture!

Kumar Sanu and Mahalaxmi Iyer attempt a more sedate number in the form of "Mujhe Tumse Mohabbat Hai". Once again, Sameer’s lyrics are dreadfully predictable and Nadeem-Shravan’s tune (or lack there of) is uninspiring at best.

To top it all, every track is preceded by cheesy snippets of dialogue that just make you want to cringe with embarrassment. "Yaar Pyar Ho Gaya", "Mera Dil, Dil Tu Lele" and "Qayamat Qayamat" are worth listening to, but I doubt anyone will be rushing to see this movie for the music.

It would be silly to expect a soundtrack of “Pakeezah” proportions from “Chalte Chalte”. Indeed, it would not be unreasonable to expect an album that might just be as good as “Yes Boss” and “Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani”. Alas, “Chalte Chalte” does not really fulfil any of those types of expectations but that is not to say that it is not a good album. Roaming through the songs, it is clear who the real star of the soundtrack is. Abhijeet.

For Abhijeet is given the most melodious songs in the album and evidently those are the tracks that are making an instant impact on the charts right now.

When I first read the lyrics “Tauba Tumhare Yeh Ishare, Hum To Deewane Hain Tumhare”, I feared that it might be a re-tread of another Abhijeet-Shah Rukh Khan song, “Hum To Deewane Hue Yaar, Tere Deewane Hue Yaar” (“Baadshah”). It is a relief to know that it is anything but that. Rendered by Abhijeet and Alka Yagnik, “Tauba Tumhare Yeh Ishare” is an instantly likeable romantic duet. My only complaint is that Jatin-Lalit were a bit too heavy-handed with the beats, which is occasionally slightly louder than the singing. There is also an instrumental version of this. Verdict: Cool!

Abhijeet opens up the next song, “Chalte Chalte” with the introductory line “Pyar humko bhi hai, Pyar tumko bhi hai, To yeh kya silsile hogaye”. Abhijeet’s soothing intro is marvelous! Another excellent part of the song is when both he and Yagnik hum “mmm ooo kya bata… kahaan hum chale”. I especially love the way they knowingly say the word “kahaan” as if they are slightly nervous about where they are heading but are also anticipating it. Javed Akhtar’s lyrics play a huge part in making this song so loveable! Verdict: Fantastic!

Abhijeet and J-L take a break and let Aadesh Shrivastava and Sukhwinder Singh take centre stage in “Layi Vi Na Gayee”. Shrivastava’s music has a traditional Punjabi tone to it and, naturally, Singh feels right at home in this lovely composition. Singh magically brings the emotive poetry (by Pappu Dhillon and Babu Maan) alive and makes your heart skip a beat. Verdict: Spellbinding!

Things take a downturn with Shrivastava’s next song “Gum Shuda” (Sonu Nigam). Please cover your ears as Nigam repetitively shouts, “Gum Shudaaaaaa”. Ouch! Well, to be fair, he does not shout but he repeats it so much that it feels like the song is being forced into your ears. The middle portions between the “Gum Shuda” refrains are tolerable but those parts have an outdated eighties/Bappi Lahiri feel to them. Verdict: Yuck!

Udit Narayan and Yagnik lead the sweet number in J-L’s, “Dagariya Chalo”. The tune is nothing special but the singers are a treasure to listen to. The popularity of this kind of song really depends on the picturization in the film. A memorable picturization could make this one stand apart from the other songs. Verdict: Listenable!

Shrivastava pushes J-L out of the way and tries to get his “Tujhpar Gagan Se” into the spotlight. Singh is joined by Preeti and Pinky this time round. Preeti and Pinky make the intro very enticing with the way they sing the words “kaisi deewangi hai”. What follows is a spicy fast-paced track with Singh being supported by a superb chorus. In fact, without the excellent chorus, this number would not be anything to write home about. On first listen, this song might seem like a noisy disruption from the other melodic numbers but it can be quite enjoyable to listen to once you get used to the speedy tune. Verdict: Good

It is a surprise to learn that Shrivastava has composed “Suno Na Suno Na” because it sounds very Jatin-Lalit-like. It suffers from a “Yes Boss” hangover. Abhijeet pops up to bid adieu to us in the last track in the album. Don’t expect to find anything earth shattering here. Once again, Abhijeet’s velvety vocals save the day. The way he sings has a Shah Rukh stamp all over it so it is easy to imagine it being picturized on the star while listening to it. A treat for Abhijeet and Shah Rukh fans. Verdict: Above Average

I don’t really support albums that have more than one composers and soundtracks like “Chalte Chalte” proves why. There is often a lack of consistency. It jumps from a calming track like the title song (by J-L) to a strange attempt at a pop ballad by Sonu (by Shrivastava). There is a noticeable difference in the style of compositions and it can be unsettling to listen to. Overall, the album is worth a listen or two. But I sincerely doubt whether the songs will still be remembered within a year’s time.

This is one, of the worst example, hotch potch, of non complimentory styles!!

I wish, SRK should have stayed with either his first composer, J-L, toto(PBHH, YES BOSS)

OR SECOND FIDDLE, ANU MAILK, who gave him, a memorable, ASOKA! :nopity: :bangbang: :baaa: :bash:
