| HTHS MUSIC REVIEW |
| There is something interesting about the starcast of Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam (HTHS). All the three stars have given hits with each other. Salman Khan and Madhuri Dixit delivered the biggest HIT of all time in Hum Aapke Hain Kaun!! Then there has been Rakesh Roshan's blockbuster Karan Arjun starring Shahrukh Khan and Salman Khan that also finds a place in one of the ALL TIME BIGGEST HITS. And who can forget the romance and fragrance of Yash Chopra's Dil To Pagal Hai starring Shahrukh and Madhuri. This completes the circle of all the stars who now form three sides of the Love Triangle HTHS produced by K.C.Bokadia who had given fresh lease of life to Mithun Chakraborty in Pyar Jhukta Nahi and Amitabh Bachchan in Aaj Ka Arjun. HTHS is presented by Bharat Shah and T.P.Agarwal and is written and directed by K.S.Adhiyaman. There is something interesting about the music of HTHS as well. Can you guess the number of music directors for total 11 songs composed? SEVEN. They are Nikhil - Vinay, Bappi Lahiri, Bali Brahmabhatt, Sajid-Wajid and Daboo Malik. And it could be even more as the album cover doesn't mention the composers for two songs. There are five lyricsts as well - Sameer, Maya Govind, Karthik Awasthi, Praveen Bhardwaj and Jalees Rashid. HTHS seems to be yet another product of the MUSIC BANK of T-Series. The numbers that stand out are the Title song, 'Sab Kuchh Bhoola Diya', 'Taaron Ka Chamakta Gehna' and 'Khoye Khoye Din Hai'. Nikhil-Vinay mainly work on the title song with one main version, one sad version and then the instrumental of the same. A Yash Chopra or a Aditya Chopra or a Karan Johar would be more than pleased to have such a quality romantic number in their movie. The number is soothing and very soft to the ears. Anuradha Paudwal and Udit Narayan are good as ever. Sameer writes the lyrics. The sad version is impressive as well and the instrumental is mesmerizing. The title song is one number that has a very good repeat listening quality. Good work Nikhil-Vinay. This is another excellent number from them after a great show in 'Tum Bin' which is still going strong. Charpai, Takiya, Rajaai, Khatmal, Batti and Chumma - Even if a kid hears these words then he can make out what would be the context of the overall song. Well, 'Gale Mein Lal Taai' has them in ample and there is indeed no need to mention that the song is plain SINGLE MEANING - let aside DOUBLE MEANING. The song points to just one thing and scores in that. Lyrics are by Maya Govind. Music King of the 80's - Bappi Lahiri composes this number which is so much similar to the kind of numbers churned out in Jeetendra-Sridevi flicks coming from the Southern banners. Remember the suff like 'Ma-ma-mia...bang bang' , 'Ta ka tiki' kind of songs. When you can enjoy those numbers then you can enjoy this as well. Kumar Sanu and Bela Sulakhe (successfully) imitate Kishore Da and S. Jaanki. K.C. Bokadia and Bappi Lahiri manage to win the hearts of the front benchers and one can expect a long queue in front of cinema halls in interiors of India for this one number itself. But just one question !! What is an actress of Madhuri's calibre doing in this song? Karthik Awasthi's lyrics exude the anguish and pain in 'Sab Kuch Bhoola Diya' to which the vocals of Sonu Nigam and Sapna Awasthi do full justice in both the solo and the duet versions. No doubt that on first hearing the song doesn't promise much and seems to be a drag - more so because the song is very uncharacteristic of a Shahrukh-Salman-Madhuri movie. But as one listens to the number repeatedly, it starts growing and one just gets hooked. A good touching number composed by Bali Brahmabhatt. There are three stage/item numbers in HTHS - 'Aa Gaya Aa Gaya' (Lyrics Sameer), 'Na Na Nana' (Lyrics Praveen Bhardwaj, Music Daboo-Malik)and 'Dil Tod Aaya' (Lyrics Jalees Rashid, Music Sajid-Wajid) where 'Dil Tod Aaya' is the most impressive. Both 'Aa Gaya Aa Gaya' and 'Na Na Nana' seem to be a cry of a HAPPY GO LUCKY guy and are youth oriented. If the results aren't good then they are not washouts either. Overall the two numbers by Udit Narayan and Sonu Nigam respectively are just of Time Pass category and meant to be FILL IN THE BLANK kinds. 'Dil Tod Aaya' is the most peppy of all (though it too is a predictable composition!!) The arrangements are good and an effective choreography and picturization will certainly elevate it's chances to be a potential hit. 'Khoye Khoye Din Hain' faintly resembles 'Choti Choti Raatein' from 'Tum Bin' but is nevertheless a very melodious number. Daboo Malik shows promise yet again with this track that is penned by Praveen Bhardwaj. 'Taaron Ka Chamakta' too is FEEL GOOD kind, which is in appreciation of a girl who is about to get married. Udit Narayan sings this number in which Bali Brahmabhatt makes a brief appearance as the girl's brother. Sameer is the lyricist for this number in which the credit for the composer isn't mentioned. T-Series is sure to go all out in marketing this prestigious product. Now it's up to the music lovers to lap up HTHS, which has a fair share of good numbers. -IndiaFM- |

| ok i just came back from the first showing of the day! (6:30) which didn't even start til 7! well lemme just say hths is a very enjoyable movie. it's true, u can notice the scenes which were shot earlier and the oens which are more recent. but nothing major(srk more or less looked the same, only way to tell if it's old was his hairstyle) ok movie i admit, was kinda slow..it dragged on with just one storyline. but omg the comedy scenes were too funny. it really cracked up everyone in the theatres. oh just for ur information...Shahrukh got a louder cheer for his enterance than salman ;) hehe small thing to notice. but made me soo happy :D anyways songs were nothing special, though ppl actually cheered for sab kuch bhula diya, even though it came at a very emotional part hehe, i heard a few whistles - i wouldn't call this movie a super hit...but again i wouldn't be so harsh and call it a flop. it was good. same, repetitive storyline...which dragged a bit, but they made it fun! :D ok performances Shahrukh : wow this guy just proves his acting abilities again and again everytime i see sumthing new on him. wheteher it's his comedy, his emotional scenes, his stubborness...everything he does amazes me. Salman : this movie is good for him, although he's not the main actor - he does get recognized! just thankful his name isn't 'prem' and shahrukh's isn;t 'raj or rahul' :P Madhuri : ok mads' looks were the easiest to determine wheter the shot was recent or old. she kept changing...sumtimes straight hair, sumtimes curly n big, sumtimes short sumtimes long. sumtimes she was fat, sumtimes thin...old young..i can go on forever lol but her acting was cute. sumtimes she got annoying...but that was her character... Aishwarya : ok i doubt that's her real voice...but i admit she looked nice in her last scene, though again she was useless. and what's the point in making her blind? i don't see the point...that part could have been better explained. like they should have focused a bit more on salman n aish's luv story otherwise suman ragnathan,atul agnihotri were useless ppl(lol remember when i was getting all worked up and thought suman was gonna seduce shahrukh..turns out she's his sister):P overall a fun movie, they kinda made it too long. would have been if it had nicer songs...and another storyline going on. but u should def. see it ~SHEEBA (SRKS PARTY) |
