Om Mangalam - Kambakkht Ishq

Playback - RDB

Music - Anu Malik

Lyrics - Anvita Dutt Guptan

Kambakkht Ishq was a hit song from the movie 'Pyar Tune Kya Kiya' starring Fardeen Khan, Urmila Matondkar and Sonali Kulkarni .. good movie and a fantastic song indeed!

Come 2009, we have a movie with the same title.. which means "Damn Love".
When you're in it.. you're wondering if it's really happening.. when you're out of it, you want to experience it.. somehow, man is never happy!

The song also talks about how people don't want to tie the knot and hence, find ways of staying away :)

Kambakkht Ishq stars Akshay Kumar (looking great and as young..!) & Kareena Kapoor along with some Hollywood biggies in guest appearances.

Om Mangalam was the first song which featured in the promos.. post the long producer-multiplex strike! Thank God the movies are back!!

It's got a catchy tune and the mantra - Om mangalam, Bhagwan Vishnu.. reminds me of Ekta Kapoor serials - donno why..! I guess it's because of the 'dramatic feel' to it.. it's apparently the matra which is used in weddings.

The song's performed by RDB and I think they've presented the song well..
It's got good beats.. and I like the bit where they go..

Kya pyaar kiya kambakkhat ishq
Main to haar gaya kambakkhat ishq
Mujhe maaar gaya kambakkhat ishq
Haaye rabba yeh kya ho gaya

You're my baby but you're driving me crazy boy!

Good tp song.. listen to it here!

Delhi Destiny - 99

Playback - Raja Hassan, Ashu

Music - Shamir Tandon

Lyrics - Vaibhav Modi, Amitabh Bhattacharya, Shabbir Ahmed, Chintan Gandhi

There are milestones in life which people remember only if you actually make it to that milestone.. If you're just an inch away.. no one remembers..

Like if your trekking and want to make it to the mountain top, people remember only if you actually made it to the top..

Similarly, when a batsman gets out at 99 in a Cricket match, people rarely remember.. but if he hits a century, that's when it's all about that moment of glory..

99 is a film which showcases match-fixing in cricket, betting, heart break, thefts in Delhi and a set of 2 people (Kunal Khemu & Cyrus Broacha) who got duped after duping thousands of people themselves in the city of Delhi..

Fun film to watch..

Delhi Destiny is a song that's catchy with a good music beat and reminds me a little bit of Ru Ba Ru from Rang de Basanti.. don't know why :)

Sung by a budding singer, Raja Hassan who made his claim to fame post the TV Show - Sa Re Ga Ma Pa in 2007. I think he's got good style and has done justice to the song.

Look forward to listening to more songs from him..

I think this song's different, a little senseless.. but fun :)
Listen to it here.

Tere Bina - Kal Kissne Dekha

Playback - Wajid

Music - Sajid-Wajid

Lyrics - Sameer

Another painful, romantic ballad to add to the "Tere Bina" list of songs..
This one's a beautiful track from the recently released film 'Kal Kissne Dekha' starring famous bollywood film producer, Vashu Bhagnani's son - Jacky Bhagnani in the lead role...
I wonder how the film was.. but this song is just brilliant.

The nice lines from the song are :
Tere Bina, Tere Bina Lagata Nahi Mera Jiya
Abb Tere Siwa Chale Meri Saansein Na Re Na
Mere Humsafar Phiru Darbadar
Shaamo Seher Dhoonde Tujhko Najar
Tere Bina, Tere Bina Lagata Nahi Mera Jiya
Abb Tere Siwa Chale Meri Saansein Na Re Na


Ek Pal Ki Bhi Judaayi Abb Sahi Jaati Nahi
Marna Jo Chaahu Agar Toh Maut Bhi Aati Nahi
Har Dua Meri Lagti Be asar
Shaamo Seher Dhoonde Tujhko Najar
Tere Bina, Tere Bina Lagata Nahi Mera Jiya
Abb Tere Siwa Chale Meri Saansein Na Re Na


Will definitely be on my playlist for a while to come..
Me thinks it's a must listen!!

P.S. I missed blogging... it's good to be back!
