Jai Ho! (Slumdog Millionaire)
Starring: Anil Kapoor, Dev Patel, Frieda Pinto
As always, A.R. Rahmans music charms…. per as is the rule – it only hits you after you have heard atleast 3-4 times!
This song is no exception and the thing that really brings it to the top is the energy shown in this dance sequence. It comes at the end of the movie – but still, the song manages to hold up.
Look out for my review on this movie soon!
A “3.75“ from me!
– Enjoy the popcorn!
Delhi 6 (Maula Arziyan)
The song isn’t that great – or maybe it will grow on us with repititive listening – as is the case with most A.R Rahman compositions. It has a sufiyana touch to it but nothing compared to “Khwaja mere khwaja” of Jodha Akbar.
But can be watched just to see another video of the movie – Delhi 6;ย as well as other characters – namely Rishi Kapoor, Waheeda Rehman & Divya Dutta.
From the makers of Rang De Basanti & from the looks of this song – this movie will definitely be emphasizing on a controversial issue as well….
Giving it a “2.0“…
...Enjoy the Popcorn!

Chandni Chowk to China (Tere Naina)
Sung by Shankar Mahadevan and Shreya Ghosal, this is a nice soft melodious number…. per listening to it right now and the way it is picturised – i would just call it slightly above average.
A “3.0” from this side…
…Enjoy the Popcorn!

Dostana (Ma da Ladla)
Priyanka Chopra really knows how to dance! and her expressions go so in-tune with the song and its theme – shararti, amused and ofcourse – gorgeous!
An extremely catchy song and becoming extremely “in” as a joke worldwide – the lastest being in Idian Idol 4.
This song will beย on the lips of every guy, girl and ma for a very long time! ๐
“4.75” from Me!

Delhi 6 (Masakali Matakkali)
A.R Rahman’s music – what can you expect then but the best!
The song itself has a very ethnic touch but i think what really sets it apart is Sonam Kapoor! Her simple and natural look seem almost perfect for the song.
And though i don’t see it, a cousin happened to comment that she feels Sonam Kapoor has a touch of Aishwarya Rai in the song… well what do you expect – she is working with Abhishek Bachchan – kya pata she was chosen for that very reason ๐
A “4.5”ย – just for Sonam Kapoor!
Enjoy the Popcorn!
