"Sunday" and "chill-out" rhyme so well when put together and same can be said about the track 'Missing Sunday'. Sandeep Chowta definitely knows what it feels to miss a Sunday and a laid-back approach is used for this relaxing and fully chill-out piece. It opens up with a weird musical piece. Bizarre. Moving at snail pace, the song maintains a low tempo till the end. Mahua Kamat does not exert much pressure on her vocals. Suraj – who sounds or tend to sound like Adnan Sami, goes the opposite way. Rap portions are cleverly assured by Earl. Chowta's influences of jazz music are present all over – including the guitar riffs. Farhad-Sajid does a fine job with the light words penned. A totally fresh track not to be missed!
Now this is not bizarre. The weird musical piece has been deleted in 'Missing Sunday (Remix)'. And what an amazing prelude has been included! The synchronization, orchestration and instrumentation of these few middle octave notes in the prelude are fabulously arranged and are used in the interludes further. Chowta has replaced the jazz effect with more hip-pop elements with strong hooks, innovative keyboard sounds and creative interludes. The mixing is pulsating with Earl adding more value to the newly inserted rap portions – which musically blend better with the new sound structure. An addictive Sami-Chowta remix!
The man behind last year's popular soundtrack of 'Kabul Express'; Raghav Sachar composes the best track - 'Manzar'. The piece is in a league of its own and scores the highest marks in singing, electronic mastering and mixing and orchestral approach. The soft addictive tune he has composed takes both an ambient and rock dimension in the same time frame.Opening with a female chorus followed by some rap portions, the track waits no time to explode! The rock guitar sound strikes right through after and loads of zingy sounds just penetrate in, including hands clapping and whistling. Raghav Sachar makes a fantastic entry and there is a great deal of emphasis on the vocal trance. On top of that, the twist in the first part of the song – where he goes high pitch, is totally unexpected. Lyrics by Aditya Dhar are adequate. The use of the saxophone near the end of the piece, is an icing on the cake! The track calls out for a techno remix – which is surprisingly not included!
A dark atmospheric feel prevails in Shibani Kashyap's 'Kashmakash' – especially in the first part of the piece, where the music slowly builds up and then explodes. The composition and rendition by Shibani Kashyap are quite surprisingly average. The number opens with a beautiful saxophone piece and then transcends into a more obscure and mysterious music. However, the repeated 'Kya Kashmakash Hai Yeh' totally dissolves the suspense feel firstly created at the start. The composer likes to venture and to explore such territory while with lyricist Virag Mishra – who enjoys writing new age thoughts, could have done better. All is not gone as it makes an excellent piece to remix as the other version does not need to include the suspense sequence.
And this is exactly what 'Kashmakash' (Remix) by DJ Suketu is all about! Increasing the tempo is the first right step towards making it a more enjoyable ambient track. Interestingly, the remixed version turns out to be much better than the original version, with Shibani Kashyap's sexy vocals on the top of a great electro beat.
The message in 'Pyar To Hona Hi Hai' is beautiful and simple. This same love, dedication and passion are used for this composition. Pakistani band, 'Suroor' delivers an incredible freshness in their solo contribution. The striking aspect of the piece is that both Mohammed Ali and Kamran Bari (who also happens to be the lyricist) form a wonderful duo and are in sync with the rendition, complementing each other. The main singer's voice displays an astounding depth, with a clear voice quality. A plethora of instruments are used to support these voices. Bring on the solo violin, synthesizers and guitars, which are all played with vivid energy and talent. A strong moment of peace is felt in the first and only interlude. The 'band' sound is also omnipresent in the background with the bass, drums and strong percussions.'Pyar To Hona Hi Hai' (Remix) has a trance feel to it with groovy beats. Vocal trance is getting very popular with the soundtrack and same is fully applied here. The remixing has been properly done as it still conserves the distinct tune and freshness of the original.
Rohit Shetty (Zameen, Golmaal) should be satisfied with such a diverse soundtrack – as all the composers have given their best to each of the tracks and each of the individual tracks will get the attention they deserve. The music of 'Sunday' comes under the category of Hindi Pop and does not sound 'Bollywood' as there are no routine item numbers or love duets. The combined rhythms, electronics, strings, vocals, percussive loops, drum and bass work are sure to leave the melodies echoing in one's mind for long!
