I think Vishal and Shekhar knew that they had a pretty bog standard filmi bhangra-masti-dhamaal tune on their hands to spice up. There is little room for the singers to show much talent. After all the song has fairly straight tunes, comfortable notes, few nuances and one happy expression throughout. Vasundhara's rendition is limited by all these factors but she manages to add something extra with her ethereal voice, which sounds particularly pleasing when the male and female portions sing 'aa milja phir gale hanste hanste'.

But that can only take her rendition up to 6 marks: above average, even with nothing much to do!

To me, this was a very average performance. I didn't see anything special. I think she has had better performances. And though a great song, the performance overall was average to me. I wish I could give a 5.5, but I'll resort to 5.
