I wonder why s-e-l are so hell bent on making a fool of themselves, first in housefull n hum tum aur ghost and now in this one!
I m waiting to hear some quality stuff from them, high time that they start signing some sensible movies now!  |
Agree Especially HTAG, but Tere Bin Laden, though there isn't much scope for music, expected better stuff than this from SEL.
Ullu da Patha is the best song of the Album, though nothing great, I love Amreeka is mediocre by SEL standards, and still the 2nd best. Rest by guest composers are pretty ordinary. Disappointing, really.
Now the next major release will be Love you Maa, followed by Patiala house and Zindagi Milegi Na dobara. Good year ahead, but sadly we will have to wait for so long  _________________

Coming from SEL and sung by Shankar Mahadevan and Ali Zafar, Ullu Da Patta is a fun-ride all the way, for its flippant lyrics and equally flippant arrangement, which does bear traces of Move Your Body. Loved the “He’s a good looking Ullu Da Pattha” refrain! The remix also has innovative elements of its own to catch the ear. The trio’s only other score for the soundtrack, I Love Amreeka, though a tad mediocre by SEL standards, is still entertaining for its frivolous folk elements, and the singing by Shankar Mahadevan, Ali Zafar, Akriti Kakar and Anusha Mani. The reprise version has everything just the same, except that Shankar Mahadevan is missing in the ensemble, leaving Ali Zafar to take charge. Zafar may be a good vocalist but he surely isn’t as good as Shankar Mahadevan! There is also a third shorter and even less attractive version called Welcome to Amreeka which has Ali Zafar doing a solo.
Dhruv Dhalla may have given a spunky score for Khosla Ka Ghosla but his composition here with DJ Abhijit Vaghani, Shor Sharaba, doesn’t come anywhere close. The track delivered by Jaspreet Singh and Suraj Jagan sounds more like a remix than an original track. Dhruv however improves matters in Kukduk, a song which while having your feet tapping all along, also bears testimony to the limitations of Dhruv Dhalla as a composer with its strong resemblance to Chak De Phatte. Master Saleem does a good job on the vocals as well. The last song is completely Ali Zafar’s own. He does the vocals, composing, lyrics. And Bus Ek Soch does sound the usual Ali Zafar material too, a very nostalgic charm all about it.
Multiple composers. Comedy movie. Ideal ingredients for a disaster soundtrack. But Tere Bin Laden fortunately is not that bad, with at least a couple of tracks that will have a consistent audience for some time.
MusicAloud rating: 7/10
Recommended Tracks: Ullu Da Pattha, Bus Ek Soch, Kukduk |

| personally, i found both the SEL tracks to be pretty okay....considering it is a fun and light hearted film....... SEL have always scored music keeping the script & the feel of the film... |

Yeah, agree.. Still, I gotta admit this was not upto SEL standards.. I mean Ullu da patha was fine, but I love Amreeka was very predictable and generic score
But major releases are yet to come, so no worries  _________________

why even choose projects like Shorkut, Chandni CHowk TO China, Housefull, Hum Tum Aur Ghost and now this one.. when there isnt much scope for the music
each time we fans console ourselve by saying stuff like they composed with script in mind.. but thing is that these scripts / movies also suck!! so do SEL choose such projects for the sake of frienships?  |

And i think it's the makers, more than the projects that makes the difference.. SEL will deliver a rocking album always with Excel prod, Dharma prod, Nikhil Advani, Shaad Ali and Sriram Raghavan. All the above guys have a great taste for music. CC2C was good musically, but rest were
