So, here is one of my favorite song from one of my favorite movies.. Golmaal, starring Amol Palekar..

Aanewala Pal Jaanewala Hai
Ho Sake To Iss Mein Zindagi Bitaado Pal Jo Yeh
Jaanewala Hai Ho Ho

Aanewala Pal Jaanewala Hai
Ho Sake To Iss Mein Zindagi Bitaado Pal Jo Yeh
Jaanewala Hai

Ek Baar Yoon Mili Maasoom Si Kali
Ho Khilte Hue Kahaan Pushpaash Mein Chali
Dekha To Yahin Hai Dhundha To Nahin Hai Pal Jo Yeh
Jaanewala Hai Ho Ho

Aanewala Pal Jaanewala Hai
Ho Sake To Iss Mein Zindagi Bitaado Pal Jo Yeh
Jaanewala Hai

Ek Baar Waqt Se Lamha Gira Kahin
Wahaan Dastan Mili Lamha Kahin Nahin
Thoda Sa Hasaake Thoda Sa Rulaake Pal Ye Bhi Jaanewala
Hai Ho Ho

Aanewala Pal Jaanewala Hai
Ho Sake To Iss Mein Zindagi Bitaado Pal Jo Yeh
Jaanewala Hai Ho Ho
Aanewala Pal Jaanewala Hai

You can watch the song on YouTube

Amazing song..

Kisiki muskuraahaton pe ho nisaar
Kisika dard mil sake to le udhaar
Kisike waaste ho tere dil mein pyaar
Jeena issi ka naam hai

Maana apni jeb se fakeer hain
Phir bhi yaaron dil ke ham ameer hain
Mitte jo pyaar ke liye woh zindagi
Jale bahaar ke liye woh zindagi
Kisi ko ho na ho hamein to aitbaar
Jeena issi kaa naam hai

Rishta dil se dil ke aitbaar ka
Zinda hai hameen se naam pyaar ka
Ke mar ke bhi kisi ko yaad aayenge
Kisi ke aansuon mein muskuraayenge
Kahega phool har kali se baar baar
Jeena issi kaa naam hai
Kisiki muskuraahaton pe ho nisaar..

One of my favorite songs.. was listening to it, thought of posting the lyrics here.. love the song..

You can watch it here on YouTube

I just want to tell you nothing
You don’t want to hear
All I want is for you to say
Why don’t you just take me
Where I’ve never been before
I know you want to hear me
Catch my breath
I love you ’till the end

I just want to be there
When we’re caught in the rain
I just want to see you laugh not cry
I just want to feel you
When the night puts on its cloak
I’m lost for words don’t tell me
All I can say
I love you ’till the end

The Pogues – Love You till The End

I don’t know whether I should praise the music director Monty Sharma or the real music director, Sanjay Leela Bhansali..

I know, I know, Sanjay is the director but I consider him as the real music director. Why? Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam – Music by Ismail Darbar – Super Hit Music, Devdas – again, Music by Ismail Darbar – Music was hit too.  Tera Jadoo Chal Gayaa – Music by Ismail Darbar – worst music, flop.

The point is, Sanjay Leela Bhansali made him work the way he wanted and got the good music out of him. Same way it could have happen with Monty Sharma too but by this I don’t mean to say that these music directors are bad. But what I am trying to say is, Sanjay’s knows what exactly he wants and how he can take it out from the music directors or actors or be anyone associated with his film.

Okay, enough of praising. Let’s get back on the track.

Saawariya Songs (Track Listing):

1. Saawariya – Shail Hada
2. Jab Se Tere Naina – Shaan 
3. Masha Allah – Kunal Ganjawala, Shreya Ghoshal
4. Thode Badmash – Shreya Ghoshal 
5. Yoon Shabnami – Parthiv Gohil
6. Daras Bina Nahin Chain – Richa Sharma, Shail Hada, Parthiv Gohil
7. Sawar Gayi – Shreya Ghoshal
8. Jaan-e-Jaan – Kunal Ganjawala, Shreya Ghoshal
9. Pari – Kunal Ganjawala
10. Chhabeela – Alka Yagnik
11. Saawariya Reprise – Shail Hada

First song, Saawariya by Shail Hada – excellent song, superb lyrics and specially sung very well. I was afraid that the singer might take the song on very high pitch but it was pretty much balanced.

Jab Se Tere Naina by Shaan.. this one is perfect for romantic song, specially if you want to impress you girlfriend. (It worked with mine) haha. It’s so melodious, you feel like singing out loud.. Jab se tera naina… mere naino se lage re… tab se diwana hua, sabse begana hua.. rab bhi diwana lage re…  I should stop now i guess.. haha

I think, I should just sum up the stuff rather than posting my detailed views on each songs.

Masha Allah, though it was sung by Kunal Ganjawala and Shreya Ghosal, the whole credit goes to Kunal (Shreya has nothing much to sing in this one). Thode Badmash, superbly sung by Shreya. Yoon Shabnami was sung pretty well by Parthiv Gohil.

Daras Bina Nahin Chain, Richa Sharma is just amazing here, just superb. This can’t be called as full fledged song but it looks to be used in credits or somewhere in between some sequences. Sawar Gayi by Shreya is another exceptional song in this album. Jaan-e-Jaan sung well by Kunal and Shreya. But if we compare with other songs, it might be that good but yes, I liked it.

Pari, one more by Kunal.. no need to praise him again for his singing abilities. Nice song. Chhabeela by Alka Yagnik, reminds me of songs of era of late 90s with some better music. Good song but nothing great though. Looks like, it might be some introduction song for one of the actresses. (Rani or Sonam)

The last one, Saawariya Reprise is kind of unplugged (or live) version of the song Saawariya. I personally felt Shail went bit over the board in the beginning but things got balanced once the actual song started.

So, overall, I would rate this album Rating: 4 out of 5 stars The songs might not appeal the masses in the beginning but it is like, more we listen.. more we like. I don’t know about others but I have felt in love with this masterpiece and that is what made me write music review after a long time.

Awesome songs, rock songs. Obviously it is not heavy rock but it can be called as soft rock as the songs are mostly love songs. Superb lyrics. Specially the song Teri Yaadein. The credits show the band Cactus for the music but I could not find any information about the songs on their site. But finally today I found downloadable version of the song. and the shocking part is, the song is originally sung It is sung by a Pakistani band called IMIK the song was included in their first album Zamana Badlay Ga – released in 2005. The song was titled as Piya. I have no idea why they have not given credit to IMIK, could have purchased copyrights or something.

You can download listen to the Hindi version of the song here or you can watch the IMIK’s video here

If you haven’t heard the song yet, I would strong recommend you to listen to it from above link.

Update: I found information about one more song from the serial, this one is the song which is featured along with the credits. It was originally sung by the band Cactus in Bengali, it was included in the Bengali movie Nil Nirjone released in 2002. The song was named as Mon (which means Mann) – Thanks to Anuran for the heads up. Till now I could not find Hindi version of it online. (Apart from the ones recorded from TV)

Bengali version of the song can be downloaded from Cactus’s official site, but it is not a full version. Or you can also listen to the song here. Watch Mon video here

I will keep you guys updated.

Update 2: Listen to the song Ranjish Hi Sahi here, this one was originally sung by well known singer Runa Laila. In the serial, this one was sung by Shurti in some party.

Let me start from the recent movies…

Krissh – Rajesh Roshan, how many liked the song Dil Na Diya? Well, tune is lifted from the original song Ceddin Deden by Ottoman Military Project

Okay, now let’s talk about superhit soundtrack of Gangster, Pritam is the music director. I guess Ya Ali was the best song of the soundtrack….but wait…..it’s a ripped one from the band called Guitara, the original song name is Ya Ghali and 2nd best song of the movie was Bheegi Bheegi, oh wait, this one is also ripped….this one is from a Bangla band called Mohiner Ghoraguli, the song is Prithibi, one more, Lamha Lamha is ripped from Pakistani singer Waris Baig’s track Kal Shab Dekha
How many liked Fanaa music (Jatin Lalit) ? Specially the song, Chanda Chamke, it was ripped from one of their songs Yara Yara from Hum Tum…but, was that original? NO, it is a ripped song too…the original song, al-Samra Wil Beyda is by Miami Group

Few more popular hit songs which are ripped from other songs, Urzu urzu durkut from Yahaan (Shantanu Moitra) is ripped from the 1993 track Dulaman by Altan, Gela Gela from Aitraaz (Himesh Reshammiya) is lifted from R Kelly’s song, Thoia Thoing.

The list is endless and these guys are never going to stop ripping songs from the original ones. I must start listening to Arabic music, 90% of the songs are ripped from Arabic music.

Good Reads: Inspired Indian Film Songs, I2FS Yahoo Group, India FM forum

Couple of years back they were in India for promotion of some Sanjay Datt starrer movie (I think it was Rakht), they had sung / composed the title rock song of that movie…. but unfortunately it didn’t work…and after that the band disappeared from India…

I got to know about this band in late 2003, they had just released their album, Sawaal, Hindi rock with solid lyrics…I really enjoyed all the songs of that album and I still listen to that album many times…it is one of my favorites…
After that, for 3 years….I did not hear anything from that band…but now they are back with their new single Pyaar Ka Jaal…again…very good song and is must download….

You can get the song from their site officially, here is the link

If you are fan of Hindi Rock, then you must grab the copy of their album Sawaal and if you are hater of Hindi Rock, give this album a try, I am sure you will start loving it…

1. Chand Sifarish – Shaan, Kailash Kher
2. Mere Haath Mein – Sonu Nigam, Sunidhi Chauhan, Aamir Khan, Kajol
3. Des Rangila  – Mahalaxmi Iyer
4. Dekho Na - Sonu Nigam, Sunidhi Chauhan
5. Chanda Chamke – Babul Supriyo, Mahalaxmi Iyer, Master Akshay Bhagwat, Aamir Khan, Kajol
6. Destroyed in Love  [Lounge Mix] - Instrumental
7. Fanaa For You [Chand Sifarish Club Mix] – DJ Aqeel

First song Chand Sifarish, is the one which is being played in the promos and creates lot of expectations when Kailash Kher adds his voice in the song but expectations ends up when you realize that he had sung only couple lines in the song….the song is good not bad but not upto the mark…to be frank I was expecting the song to be something else only..I was expecting some kind of fusion…

Second one Mere Haath Mein, this one gives better feelings when you hear Sonu Nigam (ouch he is Sonu Nigaam now) and Sunidhi Chauhan…slow song, very well sung…Amir Khan and Kajol have sung couple of lines in it…

Third one Des Rangila, gives classic kind of feeling, sung in some village or something…may be filmed on Kajol singing in Kashmir…this one is sung by Mahalaxmi Iyer, good lyrics. As name suggests, the song is on our country India..not bad, not good…ok ok song…

Fourth one…Dekho Na, this one seems to be better than other ones…very sweet song…Sunidhi and Sonu have sung it very well…specially Sunidhi…very nice song…

Fifth one..Chanda Chamke, this sounds like, song for kids…may be Kajol and Amir Khan’s son singing it…Kajol teaching her son…and yeah Amir Khan also teaches his lessons in the song…nah..I didn’t like it…

Sixth one…Destroyed in Love, this one is instrumental…Lounge Mix..they have mixed lounge kind of music with the theme music…pretty good…I liked it….

Seventh, the last one….Fanaa For You, this one is remix of the first song Chand Sifarish…this one gives some energy in the beginning…but there was no need for this mix…it just doesn’t match with the fast theme…the song is better when it’s slow…

Anyways, I have stopped playing that song and played Dekho Na song again…

So, let me sum it up…

Track Listing by Rating (Starting from good ones)

1. Dekho Na
2. Mere Hath Mein
3. Chand Sifarish
4. Destroyed in Love (Instrumental)
5. Des Rangila
6. Fanaa For You
7. Chanda Chamke

I would give this sound track 2.5 stars out of 5, the music is made for the masses, no new stuff tried like A R Rahman (Rang De Basanti), the music might not do well in the beginning but as people listen to it more, they might like it…

Car tapes are silent without his songs, parties are not complete without his dance tracks…

Talking about the Singer, Music Director Himesh Reshammiya….in his early days he used to look like some sad person with no tears on his face but now he looks more of serious but always with tears in his eyes..(I have no idea why he is shown in tears in most of his songs) but whatever it is, his songs are on lips of every youngster…

I am not saying this because his songs are being played all the time on TV..but I have noticed it all the time…couple of youngsters stay in my society..I always see them playing his songs (The new album)….I had gone to a party few days back…and the songs from the movie Aksar made everyone dance like anything…(Music was by him)….ofcourse there were other songs too but compared to other music directors more of his songs are being played everywhere…

I have never noticed any music director giving hits one after another…hats off to him….he will definitely become one of the India’s most wanted music directors. I take my words back after watching his recent new songs, the songs are very similar to his old songs, just minor changes in the tunes…if he is going to continue like this..then…I don’t see any chance of being on top….
