Khatta Meetha Music Review

It might be a laugh riot, considering that it’s got filmmaker Priyadarshan and actor Akshay Kumar behind it, but forthcoming film ‘Khatta Meetha’ is not a music lover’s delight. The film has an ordinary soundtrack with maximum fast-paced tracks.

The film that is Akshay’s production venture boasts of four originals and three remixes.

The music of the film kickstarts with ‘Nana chi taang’ crooned by Kunal Ganjawala that has influences of Marathi. The love song also has a rap portion. Overall, it is an average song that does have some energy but nothing more to offer.

It also has a remixed version attached to it.

Next in line is the only soft song of the album ‘Sajde’ that has KK and Sunidhi Chauhan behind the mike. The romantic track has a Sufi feel to it and is quite hummable.

‘Sajde’ is quite Indian in its approach barring few westernized beats. The singers do a great job and bring out a well sung, melodious song.

It too has a remix version which has extra beats but the spirit of the song remains intact even in this version.

Then there is ‘Bullshit’ that features Shani as the composer. Sung by Shehzad Roy, the song is a spoof on the politicians of the country.

It sees a mix of Hindi and English lyrics and has catchy beats. The track is situational and might not long last in the minds of the listener.

Finally, we have ‘Aila re aila’ – a catchy, energetic song, sung by Daler Mehndi and Kalpana Patowary. It has a very strong orchestration with whistles in prominence that makes it more of a masses’ song. Foot-tapping, with Marathi lingo in parts, the song has some potential.

The remix is average.

On the whole, ‘Khatta Meetha’ has nothing major to offer in music and Pritam has done an average job.

Rating: ★★☆☆☆

    Music Review of Khatta Meetha

    The expectations with the music of Pritam is always high and that to when it’s an Priyadarshan film we could see few songs of bhool bhulaiya and de dana dan were very good and the song Paisa Paisa and Hare Ram Hare Krishna were one of the biggest hit songs.Let’s see how is the music of Khatta Meetha.

    There are total of 7 songs in the album 4 are original songs and 3 are Remixes.

    1.Nana Chi Taang it has a marathi base and a western touch its a good and a new song with variety in it.Kunaj Ganjawala has come up with something very good after sometime.The remix of this song is written by Irshad Kamil and has a rap portion sung by U.R.L who has sung it well enough but still i would the original version of this song is much better.

    2.Sajde it is the best song in this album and it’s great to see KK and Sunidhi sing together it has composition of Pritam and Irshad Kamil this song is a very good romantic melidous song it is better than any priyadarshan movie romantic song it is better than U & I of De dana Dan and also Aa gale Lag Ja.This song also has a remix version one would say why a remix version for this song but remix is also worth listening.Remix is also sung by KK and Sunidhi.

    3.Bullshit is a song written and sung by Shehzad Roy it is a composition of newcomer Shani i would say newcomer Shani has done a good job it is a song written for corrupt politician’s it is also one of the best song in this album.

    4.Aila Re Aila it is sung by Daler Mehndi & Kalpana Patowary it is an attractive song and you could say rate it as an good song.This song also has an remix and I say would the Remix is much better than the original version.

    My Picks
    Sajde
    Nana Chi Taang
    Bullshit

    Thanks
    On the whole the music of Khatta Meetha is worth listening so go and grab yourself a Cd of the album.
    3.5/5
