Jai Veeru
Jai Veeru

Jai VeeruHis father Bappi Lahiri was known as the Disco King of Bollywood. Now Bappa Lahiri makes his debut as a solo composer with <I>Jai Veeru</I>. Despite his young age, his album lacks freshness and novelty. <I>Agre ka ghagra</I> is an item song and it seems Bappa tries to recreate another <I>Kajra re</I>. The song falls flat despite Mauli Dave's impressive vocals and ample support by other singers - Javed Ali and Raja Hasan. In order to amalgamate various genres in the soundtrack, Lahiri's next <I>Aisa lashkara</I> is a hip-hop number crooned by Hard Kaur and Reema Lahiri. Though the composer has tried to keep the tempo rising, the song doesn't strike a chord with the listeners. <I>Dhun Lagi</I> turns out to be a number which lacks originality and seems to have been heard before. Raja Hasan sings well but the song with a folk twist fails to create an impact owing to its ordinary lyrics and typical musical arrangements. The song has an electro mix and a dance mix, but neither version adds value to the original. Next is <I>Sufi</I>, which can be described as the best song in the album. The poignant and romantic track leaves a mark on music buffs. Saim and Tulsi Kumar have worked well behind the mike and by filling this Sufi rock ballad with emotions. The rock version of <I>Sufi</I> adds to the original number and takes the song to another level. The rock-musical feel with zany electric guitar strumming, effectively rendered vocals and thriving percussions making it apt for the special rock-concert feel. <I>Tennu le</I> brings with it an altogether different flavour with a mix of English and Punjabi lyrics. A hip-hop track, sung by Omar Inayat, it sounds like Punjabi-British pop songs. The number is high on beats, making it good for the dance floor. But, overall, <I>Jai Veeru</I> doesn't impress and has too many dull moments. The songs lack freshness and stick to old formulae that don't work any more.
