Music Review - Jai Ho!


01/02/2014

Sajid-Wajid along with the fresh and talented third generation Mallik, Amal Mallik have come together for a fun track.  The topical 'Baki Sab First Class Hai' sums up the socio-economic and political scenario prevailing in our country in India. Wajid modulates his vocals giving it that hoarse, screaming shrill pitch to convey the message of disgruntlement, anger and despair. The lyrics are topical .

The remix version of 'Baki Sab First Class Hai' has added rhythm and beats. 'Tere Naina Maar Hi Daalengein' is a “nain” song. Shreya along with Shaan render the number and Shadab Sabri comes in with the 'qawwali' portions.

'Photocopy' is a Gujarati folk based  fun number.  Keerthi Sagathia and Palak Muchal and Himesh Reshammiya do a decent job. 'Photocopy' remix is well done and makes for a good repeat here.
The third generation Mallik, young composer Amal Mallik comes up with the love ballad 'Tumko To Aana Hi Tha'   The number has a nice fusion of Indian and western influences .  Armaan Malik's fresh vocals along with Marianne D'Cruz's anglicized ones and Altamash Faridi's classic 'alaaps' all conjure up a nice romantic track.

'Love You Till The End' House Mix is an all English romantic number sung by Armaan Mailk. Famous South Indian composer Devi Sri Prasad ‘s 'Nacho Re' is a multi-layered dance number, right from semi-classical, to all filmy and western and rock.   Singer Ujjayni renders the song well.
It's very difficult  to compose a song titled 'jai Ho' after music wizard A.R. Rahman's Oscar winning ''Jai Ho'' (SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE), that became a global anthem and still remains! But young composer, Amal Mallik, deserves applause a pat on the back for taking up the challenge and doing it quite well. 'Jai Jai Jai Ho' is the combined efforts of a host of artists like Wajid, Armaan Malik, Brijesh Shandliya and Amal Mallik himself, and is nice, inspirational title track.
Overall a decent track.
