Kick Music Review

Now this is real big!! Music album of the most awaited movie of 2014 till now is out. Even though ‘Kick’ song promos have been released hardly a month before its theatrical release, they are catching like a house on fire. With just over two weeks to go for this mega Eid release carrying tremendous buzz, the makers have finally released the full audio album. The album has multiple catchy attractions that have raised the curiosity levels of one and all. Sample a few mentioned below:

  • Salman Khan has rendered his voice for a romantic song ‘Hangover’ along with Shreya Ghoshal. Song has been composed by Meet Bros. of ‘Baby Doll’ fame.
  • The title track has been composed by none other than rap master ‘Yo Yo Honey Singh’ who is enjoying the peak of his career at the moment.
  • ‘Jumme Ki Raat’ sung by Mika and composed by Himesh Reshammiya is already a chartbuster.
  • Kick is the most ambitious product of the premier production house ‘Nadiadwala Grandson’ as Sajid Nadiadwala is making his directorial debut with it and he is leaving no stones unturned.

It will be an understatement to say that expectations have taken a roller coaster ride as we dwell inside this album filled with adrenaline pumping tunes.

Jumme Ki Raat: Album kicks off with a song whose title reminds you of the Big B famous song ‘Jumma Chumma’ from the movie ‘Hum’. But this Himesh’s composition is completely in a different space altogether. This foot tapping number starts off with a peppy and instantly catchy tune. Mika is in his complete elements with highly energetic vocals and he is ably supported by Palak Muchhal. Since the movie is an Eid release, expect nothing less than fireworks in theatres when this song will play on the big screen. (3.5/5)

Hangover: After their stupendous success of ‘Baby Doll’, Meet Bros. Anjjan have been roped in to compose the romantic track ‘Hangover’. Salman Khan comes behind the mike for the 4th time after ‘Hello Brother’, ‘Chal Mere Bhai’ and ‘Wanted’. His voice fits into the song. Shreya is brilliant as usual. The violin music in the beginning is pleasant to the ears. Lyrics by Kumaar are average. (3/5)

Tu Hi Tu: Himesh Reshammiya’s ‘Tu Hi Tu’ is very reminiscent of his earlier soft melodious numbers where vocals and lyrics takes centre stage with minimum soft orchestra. Mohd Irfan has already carved a niche for himself with superhit songs like ‘Phir Mohabbat’(Murder 2), ‘Baarish’(Yaariyan), ‘Dard Dilon Ke’ (Xpose) and ‘Banjaara’ (Ek Villain). Superbly aided by lyrics from Mayur Puri, the track has the potential to grow with time. (3/5)

Yaar Naa Miley: ‘Yo Yo Honey Singh’ is the flavor of the season and has proved his talent with hits in movies like ‘Khiladi 786’, ‘Chennai Express’, ‘Boss’, ‘Yaariyan’ etc. But this time surprisingly Punjabi pop singer Jasmine Sandlas steals the show completely. Her rustic voice is perfect for the Punjabi disco beats of the song. This foot tapping classic Punjabi number has the potential to rock the DJ Charts in the days to come. (3.5/5)

The surprise package of the album is Salman has rendered his vocals for ‘Jumme Ki Raat’ and ‘Tu Hi Tu’ as well. But after hearing the voices of Mika and Mohd Irfan, Salman’s version pales in comparison. Hangover (MBA Swag) is catchy. Then to fill in the album we have reprise, house mix and remix versions of all the above mentioned songs. Apart from ‘Yaar Naa Miley’, there is a remix version and a ‘Salman’ version of all the 3 songs.

Rating: ★★★☆☆

All the 4 main songs have been shot lavishly as the grand sets are visible in the promos. The theatrical trailer became the most liked Bollywood trailer ever in flat 10 days in YouTube. This has generated enough steam for the movie and with foot tapping songs like ‘Jumme Ki Raat’ and ‘Yaar Naa Miley’ the earth-shattering opening at the box office is a foregone conclusion. Salman’s voice in ‘Hangover’ is just an icing on the cake. Songs are not musical gems but tunes are catchy and look good on screen. They go perfectly with the Salman’s dialogue – ‘Itna Mat Sochna, Dil Mein aata hoon, samajh mein nahin’

Devil is all set to run riot this Eid.

    hangover-Catchy music but Bakwaas singers 1star
    Tu hi tu-oKEYIS TYPE MUSIC wITH GREAT vOICE BY mD iRFAN-1.5 for Only irfan,s voice
    yAAR nA MILE-PATHETIC bUT LOVED yO YO,S rAP BUT FEMALE SINGER vOICE LIKE behen Maayawati
    -0.5 for yo yo,s Rap

  • First Kick is not a love story film its a action film so music doesnt really matters.

    Krrish3 & Dhoom3 music was average but it not affected films & both easily crossed 200 crs mark.

    As compared to these films Kick’s music is rocking & it way way better than last year EID release…

  • better album than last 2 years album of big films like Chennai express, jai ho, dhoom3, krish3, holiday.

  • kicks suprb outstanding music…..i think best music of 2014 tilll date aftr Villain…

  • really happy for salman. I am his big fan. I hope the movie also breaks all records. jumme ki raat and yar na miley are my favorite songs. way to go salman.

  • some extremely lallu fans think that kick can break d3 record…. lol…..
    this will happen for sure, but in your dream morons……..

  • @vicky may dis album btr than k3, d3, jai ho, bt nt btr than holiday, Holiday’s *ashq na ho* and *blame da ni8s* is enuf to beat dis whole albums any song

  • Like salman, even his songs are terrible. Akshay Kumar’s song’s are also so melodious and soothing.

  • 4/5 stars

    Album is bhais best since Bodyguard 2011 and only downside for me was that there was no Rahat Fateh Ali Khan there but what we didnt get from him we mgot in abundance from bhai jaan so thats a STAR/ Plus in my book.

  • @aamir d best

    Its apparent to all that you are 100% certifiably a lungiwala trying to be a ‘perfectionist’ fan but your hatred for Slaman is apparent n your underhanded ploy at calling yourself by such an ID highlights all lungiwalas insecurities towards the Big 2 Khans. Aamir fans dont harbor such hatred towards Salman bhai- both set of fans can easily relate to the other star n have mutual admiration for their work. The same cant be said about Sarkars work which is just an overbearing racket of bleating non stop n lungis flying all over the place. Get a life loser bcoz as an Aamir fan I want you to become a lungiwala n help that Paglapurian Cinema King to crack once again the Hindi Cinema Territory…!
