Unlimited releases of Govinda continue with Ankhiyon
Se Goli Maare. So many of his movies have come and
gone in recent
times and so many are still in pipeline (Khullam
Khulla Pyaar Kare, Waah! Tera Kya Kehna). If they
are not enough, then here
comes another comedy directed by Harmesh Malhotra. In
fact Khullam Khulla Pyaar Kare by the same director
has been lying
in the cans for ages now and waiting to see the light
of the day. A few years back the combo of Harmesh,
Govinda, Raveena
Tandon, Anand Milind and Sameer had delivered the
laugh riot - Dulhe Raja. They all reunite with ASGM.
By the look of the
promos, one can make out the obvious hangover of Dulhe
Raja and various other flicks like Bade Miya Chote
Miya, Aunty
No.1, Rajaji among others in which Govinda and Raveena
Tandon had come together. Locations are just the same,
steps are
repetitive, gestures are alike and tunes are no
different.
In 2002 when the mightiest of films are
falling like nine pins, one really
wonders whether a small predictable kind of film like
ASGM may meet some better fate.
'Gore Tan Se Sarakta Jaye' has a typical Bhojpuri tune
that Anand-Milind have been churning out for centuries
now. Lyrics are
nothing great either and Sonu Nigam, Alka Yagnik and
Sanjeevni just seem to be going through the motions.
Kind of number
that doesn't hold any real importance with the
narration of the movie and can fit in anywhere - be it
in the first reel or the last.
Dev Kohli writes for 'Rabba O Rabba' which is again
based on the folk tune - this time Punjabi. This is
again a love song where
the munda and kudi are singing praises about each
other that how she or he is the best. Nothing exciting
about this boring
number where Alka Yagnik unites with Udit Narayan. And
since the production values of the movie are not great
either so one
can't even except a lavish choreography of
picturization of the number that may elevate the
numbers to rise above average.
'Akkh Jo Tujhse Lag Gayi Re' by Sonu Nigam and
Jaspinder Narula is one rare number in the album that
one can at least sit
through. And the irony associated with this number is
that it has been composed by Anand Raj Anand who is
the guest
composer for ASGM !!! Again a typical Govinda song
which just manages to stay afloat and nothing more !!!
A definite B-Grade number in the album is 'Ladki Mud
Mud Ke Maare' which has been composed solely for the
front benchers
in the interiors. What more can you expect from a
number that has lyrics going like 'Jiske Liye Khaali
Hai Mere Dil Ki Kholi' etc
etc etc. Music wise too the number is no great shakes
and one can't differentiate it from any other Govinda
hit. Vinod Rathod
who has lent his vocals for many Govinda songs sings
this duet with Alka Yagnik. 'Thumko Lagake Naacho' is
another horrible
number that has been composed by Dilip Sen Sameer Sen
and has lyrics by Nitin Raikwar. A very much
forgettable number
that has been sung by Sonu Nigam, Vinod Rathod and
Sanjeevani.
The tracks in ASGM are of the kind where the reviewer
has to really think hard when it comes to describing
them. All the
tracks are so similar in feel that they tend to drag
towards the end and one doesn't know exactly that from
where to begin and
where to end. The same holds for 'O Chori Gori Gori'
by Sonu Nigam and Jaspinder Narula which is again set
in Bhojpuri setup
and is meant for a very select audience. Another inane
number which is quite uninspiring.
Oh !! So do you really expect something from a number
that goes like 'Dehradun Ka Chuna Lagaya'. If you do -
then well,
ASGM is the album of the century for you. Can't really
expect such a number to do wonders for the hindi music
industry. Salim
Bijnori writes for this number composed by Daboo Malik
and sung by Vinod Rathod and Sunidhi Chauhan.
Well - one can't really think of a suitable comment to
write as a tailpiece for this review after going
through the nightmarish
experience of listening to an album that goes by the
name of Ankhiyon Se Goli Maare.
