for quite a while in order to be among the first to post its music, I hope I've achieved that. So here is of Aag,
's much hyped remake of the a classic masterpiece, Sholay. (For those of you who have seen
was a very well done adaptation of The Magnificent Seven and not an original story by Salim Javed. I know some people will really hate me for pointing that out. Check it out for yourselves.) The cast of Aag include
in the song Mehbooba as the sexy dancer.
Music of Aag is by Ganesh Hegde, Bappi Lahiri, Amar Mohile and Vishal Bharadwaj. I've already said enough about the film and don't want to be hated more than I am already. Check out the songs and see what you think. Cheers.
Darling is on of the upcoming films of director Ram Gopal Verma, starring Fardeen Khan, Esha Deol and Isha Koppikar for the lead roles. There was so much buzz around RGV' Sholay remake (now knows as RGV Ki Aag) that we didn't even notice he was making Darling. Looking forward to see what he's done in this film.
The music composer of Darling, unfortunately, is Himesh Reshammiya. I don't know anything else about the film, but I definitely believe RGV's choice of music director is kinda rotten. Sorry Himesh fans. Some believe Himesh has a very wide fan-base. If so, the only value he's bringing to the table is in the sales (which is very important for some), but nothing artistic. However that has been compensated for by a very nice Adnan Sami song that I think you shouldn't miss.

Ladies and gentlemen, the wait is over!!! Music of King Khan's latest movie, Chak De India, is here! In this film Shahrukh Khan plays the role of the coach of national hockey team, who takes his team in to World Cup. It is directed by Shmit Amin. Vidya Malvade also plays a major role in film, I think that of a hockey player who dreams of playing for the National Team. Just a guess. Chak De India is one of the major movies of the year under the Yash Raj Movies banner, and it's produced by the Chopras. BTW, this is SRK's first muslim role and accroding to IMDB.com, he grew the beard in order to look more muslim-like.
The music directors of Chak De are Salim and Sulaiman Merchant. I personally like the songs from this film, except the parts sung by SRK himself ;) They have done a good job. I hope you like it too.

Marigold is a collaborative work of Hollywood and Bollywood. The film is written and directed by Willard Caroll. It's the story of Marigold (Ali Larter), an American actress, about her journey to India and how things effect her life. Salman Khan plays the male protagonist in th film.
Shankar Ehsaan Loy have composed the music. It's a little different from their previous works, perhaps due to involvement of Graeme Revell, the man who has worked on the music of many major Hollywood productions including the Sin City series, Kingdom of Heaven, The Siege and many more. Let me know what you think about it.

Cash is the latest movie by director Anubhav Sinha and stars Ajay Devgan, Ritesh Deshmukh, Zayed Khan, Arjun Rampal, Esha Deol, Shamita Shetty, Diya Mirza, and Sunil Shetty. As the title suggests, the film is all about cash/money. If you've seen the trailers, you probably know that there some really nice action sequences in this film, as well as some nice car (including my favorite and future car, 350Z).
Music of Cash is composed by Shekhar Ravjiani and Vishal Dadlani (Vishal & Shekhar). They've made some really nice music in the past, and I hope that you all like this one.

The music release after
Partner is that of
Naqaab. Naqaab is a film by
Abbas-Mastan and stars
Bobby Deol,
Akshay Khanna and the model-turned-actress
Urvashi Sharma in her debut role. It's a thriller, involving a love triangle, I guess.
Music of Naqaab is composed by
Pritam, who has created some great music in the past. Since I am trying to catch up with the latest releases, I haven't had a chance to listen to this album myself. I hope this is good and that you will like it.

Based on the Will Smith starring Hollywood film Hitch,
Partner features
Salman Khan, Govinda, Lara Dutta, and
Katrina Kaif in the leading roles. It is directed by
David Dhawan. Here Sallu is the 'love guru' which leaves Govinda to be the one who needs a make-over to win one of the leading ladies' heart. It's meant to be a comedy film, and I hope that the makers have loaded it with some nice and smart jokes. We've had a little too much of stupid jokes recently, mostly last year.
The man responsible for the music of Partner is
Sajid Wajid. It's a pretty fast-paced and loud album with too much bass. If you have a good sound system, big subs with a good amplifier, you can blow your roof off with these songs. And I think that's all they can do, they're neither lyrically good nor musically exceptional. Just loud and in your face, rather in your ear drums. No award nominations for Wajid this year. Have a listen yourselves, and see what I mean.

Awarapan is the latest film from
Mohit Suri (director of
Woh Lamhe). It stars
Emraan Hashmi, Shriya Saran and
Rehan Khan.
Awarapan's music is by
Pritam. He's come up with a couple of pretty good songs for this album.
Toh Phir Aao and
Mahiya sung by Mustafa Zahid and Suzanne respectively are quite good. I hope you enjoy this album.

Shootout At Lokhandwala (you might already know this) is a film based the true story of the clash between the Mumbhai Police and five members of gang members. The police squad were lead by inspector Khan (
Sanjay Dutt) and the gangsters by Maya (
Vivek Oberoi). Other actors who have played major roles in this film are
Amitabh Bachchan, Sunil Shetty, Arbaaz Khan, Tusshar Kapoor, Aarti Chhabria, Rohit Roy, Neha Dhupia, Diya Mirza, Amrita Singh and
Abhishek Bachchan. Shootout is directed by
Apoorva Lakhia. It is quite a good movie. It is not for you, if you are a little weak in heart because there's quite a lot of blood and death. There is one thing I would like to complain about and that is Tusshar playing Buwa's role. It just doesn't seem right; Buwa in reality was one of the coldest killers and Mr. Kapoor doesn't quite portray that. In fact none of the actors playing the gang members have acted up to the reputation of the actual gangsters, turning them into nicer people instead of the ruthless killers that they were. This probably is an intentional effort by the director, but this results in the viewers sympathizing with the gang members. Anyway, it is a very entertaining film, specially for the fans of the gangsta genre.
Contributions have been made multiple composers/directors in the music department including
Anand Raj Anand, Mika, Biddu and
Strings. The diversity in music direction and style has played quite well for Shootout. I hope you like it.

Apne is a film directed by
Anil Sharma and stars
Dharmendra and his two sons,
Sunny Deol and
Bobby Deol, alongside
Katrina Kaif and
Shelpa Shetty. It's the first film to feature Dharmendra and his to sons together. It's a family film, probably with lots of tears and sorrows and hopefully not with a story already told. We've had too much of that. Daddy's Girl has a wonderful blog,
In Praise of All Things Dharmendra. Chech it out whether you are a Dharmendra/Sunny/Bobby fan or not. It's a fun blog, a really nice read.
Music of Apne is composed by the widely love and hated director,
Himesh Reshammiya. I'm personally in the 'hate' pole in regards with his music, and voice. It's a typical Himesh album, with a lot of the songs in his own voice. I do think
Dekhoon Tujhe To Pyaar Aaye could have been much better if it was sung by someone else. Actually all songs could've been better, but that particular song has potential in my mind. But thanks to Himesh, I don't like it. I hope you are from 'love' end of his fan spectrum and enjoy this album.

Say Salaam India is the story of cricket, it's about a bunch of cricket loving young boys who are coached by an even bigger cricket fanatic,
Sanjay Suri (Hari Sadu), who are aiming for the state championship trophy. Other major roles are played by
Milind Soman, Sandhya Mridul and
Sachin Khedekar. The film is directed by Subhash Kapoor and music is by Gaurav Dayal. I hope you like the songs.

Big B is in love again in love
Cheeni Kum with someone a lot younger than himself,
Tabu. In fact, in the film Tabu's father (
Paresh Rawal) is 6 years his junior. Seems like an interesting story, and hopefully the debutant director
R. Balakrishnan does a fine job of telling it.
Music of Cheeni Kum is composed by
Ilayaraja. The whole album has a nice slow feel to it, which is great to see after all the fast paced and loud ones released in the past few months. The title songs is very nice and playful. The other songs are pretty good too. I'm sure you're gonna like this one.

Jhoom Barabar Jhoom's music is out and it's great.

Abhishek Bachchan, Preity Zinta, Lara Dutta, Bobby Deol and
Amitabh Bachchan. Check out the

Dhamaal is a film by director Inder Kumar. It is a comedy film starring our favorite actor Sanjay Dutt, Arshad Warsi, Ritesh Deshmukh, Aftabh Shivdasani, and Ashish Chaudhary. It's good to have films about silly topics with silly jokes every now and then. But too many of them can be pretty annoying, like those so many films of the last year about blind, deaf and dumb characters.
