Now, all we have to do now is wait for the soundtrack of Cocktail to hit the stores to see what else Pritam has in store for us./upcomingregionalsection.cms?parentid=61017241&genere=*:* /upcomingregionalsection. I would like to specially mention Irshad Kamil (the lyricist) for penning the meaningful, identifiable lyrics: Her fans have immensely loved her work in the industry. Iktara from Wake up Sid, Tum Hi Ho Bandhu from Cocktail, Mora Piya from Rajneeti, Jeete Hain Chal from Neerja, Prem Mein Tohre from Begum Jaan, Khari Khari from Trishna and many more. Kavita Seth has lent her voice to numerous Bollywood songs. Now, we have one sad song, one romantic track, an item number and also a sufi song in a film which is good. Today there is a lot of exposure of Sufi music in Bollywood. For once, let us make this mutually exclusive of his plagiarism. Bollywood and Classics with a Sufi Touch. Kavita, who is the voice behind songs like Iktara and Tum Hi Ho Bandhu, feels Hindi films are nowadays using sufi music a lot. Pritam is THE man to go for instant (and addictive) chartbusters – and he scores yet again. Hell, it seems to be a mash-up of all his previous hits. Yowzah!Īlso, on careful listening, one can pin-point distinct similarities with his own Subah Hone Na De from Desi Boyz.

It seems to be directly proportional to the amount of hair color on his scalp. I swear his accent during the rendition of the English lyrics seem to be getting faker with each progressing song. Once again, Neeraj Shridhar has been relegated to his comfort zone with the usual mass-appealing commercial songs – latest case-in-point being Tumhi Ho Bandhu. Judging by this promo, she is the only saving grace of this track. Thankfully, the reticent Kavita Seth makes a rare appearance behind the microphone with this song. Obviously, this promo is the extended version of the aforementioned song.Ĭomposed by the ‘music guru’ Pritam, the song expectedly opens up with fast-paced familiar techno beats. Those who have seen the theatrical trailer of Cocktail would identify with the highly addictive chants of “ Tumhi Ho Bandhu, Sakha Tumhi” which plays throughout the runtime of the trailer. Sure, the premise sounds a bit clichéd (a friendly Ménage à trois – not in the literal sense), but hey! You shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, right?Īnyway, the first song promo, titled Tumhi Ho Bandhu, is out. The first look of the man’s 2 nd flick (after 2006’s Being Cyrus) seems to portray the movie as a fresh take on the beautiful bond of friendship amidst the complicated entanglement of love. Homi Adajania’s latest venture Cocktail has been generating some serious buzz.
