Music Review Game
Game
Mona Chopra, who has been known for her dare bare pictures and videos in some of her films gone by, is seen as a leading lady in a thriller called 'Game' that is produced by Ram Mishra and directed by Shivram Yadav. Her co-stars in the film are Sameer Dharmadhikari [who is yet to get some recognition after a decent debut in 'Satta'] and Prashant Narayanan [who is unfortunate enough not to get good roles inspite of being noticed in 'Waisa Bhi Hota Hai' and 'Mudda']. Bapi-Tutul, who were recently heard in 'Khosla Ka Ghosla' are the composers for 'Game' that has lyrics by Sandeep Nath.
With absolutely nil hopes from the album due to the genre of the film and other credentials, one plays on the album with much apprehension. In the end it turns out that it was good to be apprehensive in the first place itself since 'Game' indeed doesn't have much to offer.
'Chhua Mere Dil Ko' is the song that marks the beginning of the album and even when the song is just half way through, one plays it on from the beginning since it arrests you enough to give it a close hearing. A highly melodious number with some excellent soft music arrangements, it is for those who like the romantic tracks belonging to Indi-pop variety. Slow moving with a good mix of Indian and Western music instruments, it has some very good rendition by Shaan that makes 'Chhua Mere Dil Ko'' a very good song to hear. Put the track in a film belonging to a known banner and a much more saleable starcast and it would already have been beaming across all music channels by now.
Second version of the song comes after a while which musically remains just the same except for Shreya Ghoshal joining Shaan for a duet. She does add value to this beautiful composition that is one of the finest songs composed by Bapi-Tutul in their short career so far.
Abhijeet's single 'Gustaakhiya Ho Jaane De' brings the'Game' to an end which seems to be a song set in a passionate outing. Well, there is nothing about the song that really impresses one to even give the song a complete listening.The song has a good opening note but looses its impact as it progresses. In spite of western arrangements in tow, the song fails to create that peppy effect. With a deja vu feel to the entire situation
