9 of 13 people found this review helpful It truly is the case as album succeeds in sticking to the genre of the film i.e. 'a tribute to love' and actually conveys the emotions through the 7 songs.

SEL are the biggest contenders for No.1 slot this year and provide entertainment with new blend of music in numbers like "Dil Kya Kare" and "Salaam-e-Ishq". The album has its share of joy and success but is limited to couple of soundtracks whereas the rest of numbers lack freshness and novelty to grip audiences. The film enjoys high profile face value and so it will hit the market but thereafter its merit will depend on film's box office success.

10 of 14 people found this review helpful Kailash Kher’s vocals are the strongest asset in Ya Rabba. A great number by all standards, it progresses into a nice melody with a moody Kailash thrown into a confused state, where he tries to find the light to path his way. His vocals express worry, complex thoughts and depression. Guitars, strings and keyboard sounds form a beautiful combination in producing this lonesome piece. Some of the lines take time to be uttered due the slow paced music. The chosen instruments build a nice atmosphere where the classical alaaps have been rightfully exploited. Ya Rabba is another powerful rendering by Kailash Kher and a nicely composed song by SEL where they excel in all departments.

18 of 23 people found this review helpful Ya Rabba starts off with the laidback bassy ‘thaap’ of a tabla dagga (left side of the tabla set). Acoustic guitar impressions coupled with a heartrending flute piece gently push the raw vocals of Kailash as if the boat of life moving forward with the helpful aid of tranquil waters. Sameer’s lyrics are competent once again and make this thoughtful song a treat as it talks about the victory even in defeat and living life against all odds. Ya Rabba is a winner all the way.

21 of 26 people found this review helpful The trio dishes out another good number with the best crooners singing for the best actors in Bollywood. The song has been recorded on a grand scale and is picturised on the entire star cast of the movie. A real foot-tapper with an amazing blend of the Scottish Bagpiper and the Indian dholki beats. The number is by far the best composition in the album. Brilliant!

10 of 14 people found this review helpful Adnan's melodious voice in the soft tuned Dil Kya Kare makes the song an alluring one, especially because of its simplicity, which has been retained by using nominal melodic instruments. Sameer's youthful lyrics with lines like 'Din bhar kuch miss karta hoon.. Jaane kaise khwaahish karta hoon…, Bhool gayan din saal mahina…January mein bhi aaye pasina…, and Nikloon main phati jeans pehenke…Shirt ken a hosh button ke… Bajjte hain sub sur dhadkan ke… Dil kya kare….' add to the appeal of the song.

'Tenu Leke' is an unconventional wedding song narrating a guy’s promise of bringing the barat and taking his lady love away. A fast paced, band baaja shaadi song sung with utmost vocal power by Sonu Nigam and Mahalaxmi Iyer. A complete dance number with lots of fun techno elements that will get your foot tapping.
