Poor - that is what music score of Jaal stands for !!
Sad - this is what a listener's state of mind is after
hearing to Jaal !!!
Confused - the reviewer who is amazed with the
remarkable range of Anand Raaj Anand who can compose a
Kaante or a
Gunaah or a Sandhya, but also a Jaal !!!
Worried - the music industry should be with albums
like this hitting the stores !!!
Ideally this sums up the review, but professional
compulsions force one to write in detail about each
song. So here we go !!!
Jaal (and if we didn't know what Jaal means, it is
suffixed with - THE TRAP) is an action movie produced
by Vinod Shah and
Harish Shah. Directed by action movies specialist
Guddu Dhanoa (famous for his hundreds of cars
exploding in the skies), JTP
has music by ARA and lyrics by both Sameer and ARA.
Tabu pairs up with Sunny Deol in an action movie again
after Himmat,
Jeet and Maa Tujhe Salaam whereas Raima Sen plays the
second lead -Raima Sen who has given a superhit Tamil
movie
'Minnale' (later remade as RHTDM with Diya Mirza) and
a super-flop Hum Ho Gaye Aapke.
As it may be some kind of diktat that the distributors
may be forcing on all the producers of a Sunny Deol
starrer, even JTP
has a deshbhakti song/bhangra/or whatever in the shape
of 'Indian Indian Sher Dil Indian' by ARA himself.
Pleeeeease, but for
swarg's sake, we had enough of all this patriotic fare
in songs coming with Gadar, Maa Tujhe Salaam, Bhaarat
Bhagya
Vidhaata, TLOBS, Shaheed, Ek Hindustaani and some
more. A typical deshbhakti composition, it offers
nothing great and just
passes on.
Romantic numbers do no better with some painfully slow
tracks like 'Jo Pyaar Tumne' and 'Humsafar Ke Liye'.
One is
especially shocked to hear Tabu rendering something
which sounds like 'I Love You' towards the end of
'Humsafar Ke Liye' in a
screaming tone. Mainly sung by Alka Yagnik, you can
just skip this one to avoid an embarrassment to
yourself on hearing
Tabu. 'Jo Pyaar Tumne' is an attempt to be an icy cold
number in the Swiss alps. Sung by Chitra and KK, it
tries to be another
'Ye Hasi Wadiyaan' from Roja, but just FAILS.
'Pehla Pehla Pyaar' has Kumar Sanu crooning sentiments
of a person who had had his first love. Well, but for
how many more
years will our macho Sunny papaji keep on encountering
his first love. Though the composition is just about
OK, one won't
miss the song of the century if he avoids this one.
Newcomer Saswati Phukan teams up with Udit Narayan in
'Ek Ladki Bas
Gayi Mere Mann Mein'. An average number by all means,
there isn't anything great about this composition too.
The number
tries to be melodious but just doesn't impress.
Well, Sunny Deol is here so there should be a bhangra
track too. This resurfaces through 'Sona Sona Soniye'
by Udit Narayan.
Let's see if some sets/choreography/picturisation do
something for this track.....warna to... !!??
In nutshell - AVOID IT !!
