Music Review: Kai Po Che!

Ronnie Screwvala and Siddharth Roy Kapoor's much anticipated movie, Kai Po Che!'s music album has been released. Even before the actual release of the movie, it has managed to gain a lot of attention from the viewers. Also, despite having relatively short songs in comparison to other Bollywood movies, critics say that the music leaves you wanting only more of it. The credit for this would go to Amit Trivedi, the music composer and Swanand Kirkire, the mastermind lyricist.

The album opens with "Maanja", a song set in the districts of Gujarat, where the story as well the friendship of the protagonists begins. In the vocals of the composer, Amit Trivedi himself, the song gives a sort of traditional touch, yet the audience gets a feeling of joy and happiness after listening to it. For all the calm and soft song lovers, this should be the next big thing!

Up next is "Shubhaarambh" by renowned singer Shruti Pathak and Divya Kumar. This track, as the name itself suggests, definitely brings out a motivation within you and provokes you to go ahead and remain determined in a new stream. It also has a few beats of "dandiya" which set your mood to tuning into the beats. For the dancers, here's your track for the upcoming navratri!

Last, but certainly not the least in the album, is "Meethi Boliyan", once again in the vocals of Amit Trivedi, and accompanying him is Mili Nair, who commences the rhythm in the track. It is a duet song in a smooth voice, urging the audience to feel free and be at the top of the world. Although you might find it odd at the beginning, you will surely put it on repeat after the song nears its end.

We don't know about the movie which is due for release on Friday 22nd February, but we can definitely say that the music is worth your time!
