Music Review : Apne
Apne
Deol family coming together is a reason to celebrate in itself. To add to the fun if Gadar-Ek Prem Katha Katha director Anil Sharma is associated with a project and Himesh Reshammiya and Sameer are the helm of compositions, you look forward to what Apne has in store. With stars across generations [Dharmendra, Sunny Deol,, Bobby Deol] playing key roles in the film, the music is also expected to have a varying sound and a notch above ordinary.
When Himesh Reshammiya is entrusted with the job of composing a song, it is but obvious in today's musical scene for him to kick start the proceedings with a song crooned by himself. The same happens in Apne as well as he gets into his vociferous best with his usual 'dhinchak' approach.
A stage number with a rock concert look and feel, 'Mehfuz' features Bobby Deol in a jazzy getup as he dances along to Reshammiya beats. As is the case with most Reshammiya tracks, the song appears like yet another heard-before song but starts catching up on you as you hear it repeatedly. yar plz , god promise.
By the time you arrive at the remix version of the song, you know that you are not going to mind it as long as it is played. No, it is not of chartbuster variety but decent enough to look good on screen and play on for a few weeks.
Proceedings take a turn only or the better as 'Dekhoon Tujhe To Pyaar Aaye' comes next. Yes, it is a usual Reshammiya composition but those who have liked this style over the last couple of years would like lapping the tune up yet again. It's the rhythm factor which makes 'Dekhoon Tujhe To Pyaar Aaye.' a pleasant hear and the song gets on your lips pretty quick. Also an oriental feel to the setting makes it a number that moves in a slow and steady fashion without going overtly vociferous.
Akriti Kakkar, who is being promoted by Reshammiya in number of songs during last one year, pairs up with Reshammiya and is good yet again. It is high time that other composers too make a note of her and rope her in. As expected, there is a remix version of the song as well but thankfully doesn't jar. It's the groovy approach of the composition that makes 'Dekhoon Tujhe To Pyaar Aaye..' a good hear.
