Y.M.I. – Yeh Mera India Review {1.5/5} & Review Rating

EXPECTATIONS

Yeh Mera India has suddenly started looking like an interesting project. Though there wasn't much buzz around this N. Chandra directed film when it was under production, its promos have done the trick, hence conveying the topical theme of the film. However, looking at the subject of the film, there isn't much scope for music and all one expects is a theme score that would perhaps play in the background.

MUSIC

There are only four tracks in Yeh Mera India and the first to arrive is a soft rock composition by Siddharth-Suhas who rope in Zubeen Garg as the singer. A number that takes a philosophical route and gets into the questioning mode about exploring life, 'Basuri' takes a metaphorical approach by putting a 'bansuri' as the central object of attention. Incidentally the number is written by N. Chandra himself and gives an impression that we may well get to see the same man again in form after 'Pratighaat', 'Ankush' and 'Tezaab'.

Kavita Seth is the composer and singer for the three tracks that follow from here on. First to come is 'Aap Roothe Rahe' that takes the listener into the 50s when a song like this was placed in a night club/cabaret setting. A lazy moving track written by Charanjit Charan, it doesn't cut an ice and only sets boredom within a minute of it being played. The production of the song leaves a lot to be desired as well and never once does one feel that 'Aap Roothe... ' was composed for big screen.

Aasrif Dehlvi writes 'Dil Mandir' that has a classical undertone to it. An 'alaap' marks the beginning of this track that soon takes the Sufi route. However, yet again there isn't much to look forward to as there is a strong sense of deja vu that one gets after hearing the number. There have been at least a couple of dozen tracks belonging to this genre and treatment that one has heard in the past. Due to this as well as sheer predictability factor, one avoids 'Dil Mandir' and immediately moves on to the final track in the album.

Kavita Seth comes up with an all around show as she not just sings and composes but also writes 'More Naina'. Relatively better than 'Aap Roothe Rahe' and 'Dil Mandir', 'More Naina' manages to hold some interest due to its lively rhythm and overall happy appeal. Though the number again belongs to the 'heard before seen that' kind, 'More Naina' at least justifies it's inclusion to an extent in the album.

OVERALL

Yeh Mera India doesn't really have much going for it musically. The highlight of the album, 'Basuri', too is not the kind that would manage to attract audiences in hordes just based on its strength. One still carries good expectations from the film though that could well do without any of the songs playing in the background.
