NAZAKAT
Sagarika Music, Rs. 50
THIS ONE is surely for those who love soft music with a peppy touch. Entirely composed for the guitar, each song in the album will transport you to fairyland. Nazakat is a collection of songs composed by Shibani Kashyap herself, with her team of lyricists and musicians who have lent their artistic skill to add to the versatility and musical content.
The title track "Kya Nazakat Hai", sung and composed by Shibani Kashyap with music arranged by Julius Packiam, celebrates beauty and sensuality with utmost innocence. The rendition does justice to the song, written and narrated by Murad Ali. Shibani's husky voice creates magic.
The numbers "Hakim Tara Chand" and "Ishara Karo" are fun dance tracks, which bring out the versatility of the artistes who can perform sensuous, romantic and punchy numbers with equal ease. Though the track "Man Mera Ram Ram Kare" did not grab much attention, it is a combination of traditional folk and Western club style.
The other noteworthy tracks are "Kashmakash", "Din To Gujar Jaye", "Ho Raha Hai Mujhko Ye Yaqeen" and "Thodi Thodi Saanj". Overall a hummable affair with a touch of Western style.
SHABD
T-Series, Rs. 125
ONCE AGAIN we have a one-song album. Shabd is all about "Sholon Si". Rendered by Vishal Dadlani and Sunidhi Chauhan, the song has the jazzy feel that Vishal-Shekhar are known to offer, post Jhankar Beats. Here without much support from the lyricist Irshad Kamil, they have managed to deliver the optimum. Beyond this, Shabd doesn't say much. "Khoya Khoya" by Sonu Nigam and Sunidhi Chauhan raises hopes. The song has the required lilt but fails to materialise into anything outstanding. A few notches below is "Bolo To" by Sonu Nigam and Shreya Ghoshal. The rest is forgettable. The music goes with the theme of the eponymous film, but the words fail to keep pace.
