Today I’ll pass on to you information relating to
music and songs of the film Heroine.
Music Director of Heroine: Salim-Sulaiman; Lyricist: Niranjan Iyengar; Singers: Sunidhi Chauhan, Rahat Fateh Ali Khan,
Aditi Singh Sharma, Benny Dayal, Shreya Ghoshal and Shraddha Pandit.
The music of Heroine is an interesting mix that
has been composed by Salim-Sulaiman,
who had worked earlier with Bhandarkar
in Fashion.
There are five tracks in the album that have been
penned by Niranjan Iyengar.
Halkat jawani is the first song. The
sound is peppy and very Bollywood, in sync with the mood of the film. Sunidhi Chauhan, the queen of item
songs, is flawless. The way she croons "Aaja" in the beginning is
simply mind-blowing. The lyrics too are simple yet effective. Sunidhi Chauhan, who is such a veteran
with item songs like these, brings something new to this rustic fusion. In the
end, the song achieves its aim in creating a simple and catchy tune that will
catch on.
Next up is Saaiyaan,
a heart wrenching melody by Rahat Fateh
Ali Khan. The song creates the mood of sadness and heartache. The song had
a lot of potential. It is a semi-classical number. It’s a nice composition and Rahat is in his comfort zone. This gem
of a song is rather easy on the ears.
It is followed by Main heroine hoon that has been sung by Aditi Singh Sharma of Dilli Dilli fame. Aditi's rustic and powerful voice is impressive. The lyrics match
well with the protagonist's portrayal. The song is trying to speak about the
life of a female star in Bollywood. Aditi
Singh Sharma is decent. She sounds so haunting on this track. The song
sticks with you because of the lyrics and Sharma’s
great vocals. Give this a listen as I think it definitely transcends its
situational sound.
Khawhashein is the next song which has
the voice of Shreya Ghosal. She
proves once again why she is the most sought after female singer in B-town.
There is so much flexibility in her voice that there is always something to
explore. She goes high and low with ease as the songs transforms itself into a
soft-rock ballad in some intervals. This one is a winner all the way. It is
refreshing to hear Shreya Ghosal
sing a soft rock kind of number. Lines are decent. It is undoubtedly Shreya who breathes life into these
verses. Shreya Ghosal is becoming
one of the absolute go-to singers for composers and she is certainly
ubiquitous. But with each song she does there’s such a versatility so that you
don’t end up tiring of hearing her voice all the time, this is another example.
She gives it her all for this soft-rock number and sounds wonderful. Give a
listen for Shreya alone.
Last but definitely not the least is Tujhpe fida, crooned by Benny Dayal. A good number to shake a
leg, as it is high on energy. Shraddha
Pandit supports him well in the vocals and her rendition of the line Tujhpe fida comes out really well. It is
a fine listen. It is a love song that sounds more like a remix version – with
the fast pace. It’s a groovy number. It’s an interesting track. The song gives
a much needed boost of energy. This club song definitely gets you in a dancing
mood and it’s bound to make an appearance on the dance floors for a while. Dayal and Shraddha Pandit are reliable and energetic and they have such a
good chemistry in the song. Pandit sounds
so good during the slower bridge and her solos are great too. Keep this on
repeat!
Thus, despite just five tracks, the Heroine
soundtrack composed in Bollywood style is a total "paisa vasool"
album that has all the filmy elements and moods to satiate your musical
appetite. Just go for it.
The film had become so awaited only to see how the
results come off with Kareena Kapoor taking
on a meaty dramatic role after some time.
Heroine is definitely looking good for the heroine dominated
season of 2012.
