Zanjeer Music Review

Star rating: 2/5 (Two Stars)

Music Director: Meet Bros Anjan Ankit, Chirantan Bhatt, Anand Raj Anand

Zanjeer's music is nothing like its 1973 version and in the first shot
itself, one
can see how unimpressive its faulty
tracks are. While veterans Kalyanji-
Anandji can't count on Zanjeer amongst
their best albums, music director
Chirantan Bhatt with his contemporary twist makes a convoluted album which
has mediocre tracks and dull numbers!

Mumbai Ke Hero – Zanjeer Music
Review

Beginning off with Mumbai Ke Hero, which is loaded with heavy voice Big B
dialogues from the original film, has the
reminiscent nostalgic tug to it. Talia
Bentson with the Brit rapping could just
have been left out for the good of the
song. It is an anthem number that paints a very cool picture of the
Mumbai Police!

Pinky – Zanjeer Music Review

Pinky is a washed down ala Munni number which is served with Marathi
spicy! Quite an entertaining number, it
surely isn't as peppy as the likes of Munni
but it still doesn't falter as bad as the
rest of the album.

Lamha Tera Mera – Zanjeer Music
Review

Lamha Tera Mera is wonderfully thought song for sure, however, in the process of
execution it goes haywire. Wajhi and
Palak Muchchal have beautiful voices that
blend finely to compliment each other.
Not entirely enjoyable as the beats lose
focus from time to time, you can be assured that there is potential in the
song which doesn't see the light of the
day.

Khochey Pathan Ki Zubaan (Qawaali) –
Zanjeer Music Review

Kochey Pathan is a brilliantly created
qawalli. Fashioned on Manna Dey's Yaari
Hai from the original film, Sukhwinder
Singh's energetic voice renders credible
mood and tunes to the song! Not at par
with iconic memorabilia Yaari Hai…this one still counts as the best
track from the
album.

Kaatilana – Zanjeer Music Review

Shweta Pandit sings Kaatilana with
fantastic energy. Giving the right amount
of sensuous and grace to the song, it is a
well create song that strike the right
notes and is favorable to the ears!

Shakila Baanoo – Zanjeer Music Review

Shreya Ghosal in the character painted
song Shakila Baanoo is flat like the song
itself. It doesn't seem vivacious and the
song is quite a yawn incurring bore!

Overall, An overtly tedious album that rambles on
sluggish with barely a few hearable
numbers, I cannot settle for anything
above 2/5 for this one. Kochey Pathan
and Kaatilana, both had some potential
but overall the album stumbles for the dwindling energy and lack of creative
bent!
