Housefull 5 Music Review: Where’s The Music In This Akshay Kumar Film? (Photo Credit – YouTube)

Once upon a time, there was a music industry in Bollywood that made us survive in all our moods! If you are Dukhi, you switched to a whole lot of Dard Bhare Nagme, right from Jaane Kahan Gaye Wo Din to Oye Raju Pyar Na Kariyo! While this range varied in romance and classical folk, it was the party anthems that witnessed the major makeover, right from Aapka Kya Hoga Janaab E Ali to Anarkali Disco Chali! But whatever Housefull 5 has offered in the name of a music album, with party anthems as its mains, I am still in the process of figuring that out!

No doubt, the film is earning at the box office despite criticism, but I am here to solely discuss this comedy thriller’s musical attributes! The music album...

Param Sundari: Sidharth Malhotra and Janhvi Kapoor’s Rom-Com Stirs Hearts with Old-School Charm and Southern Scents
Image
There’s something truly electric about the first encounter between strangers whose lives are about to be transformed by love. Param Sundari, the upcoming romantic comedy directed by Tushar Jalota, promises not just laughter and longing — it’s set to bring the romance genre back to Indian cinema with all the flair of a long-lost lover bursting through the door, roses in hand and rain pouring down.

Set against the stunning backdrop of Kerala’s backwaters and the delightful chaos of North India, Param Sundari features Sidharth Malhotra and Janhvi Kapoor in a tale that feels both refreshingly new and comfortingly familiar. And if the teaser is anything to go by, this isn’t just another love story — it’s a feast for the senses, where music flows like monsoon rain and those lingering glances last just a bit too long.

But don’t be fooled into thinking it’s just another run-of-the-mill rom-com.

Metro…In Dino Zamaana Lage Song Review: It Is Bittersweet! (Photo Credit – YouTube)

In the last few years, whenever I have lost hope in Bollywood and its music, some names have helped me restore my faith in it, Imtiaz Ali and Anurag Basu films clearly top the list. I clearly remember Basu Dada doing all of us a favor by gifting us some brilliant music album by Pritam during the Covid Era with Ludo’s album, and now he is making me accept some more gems with his upcoming film Metro…In Dino.

The first song from the film is out and it is titled Zamaana Lage! While it clearly does not make sense as a title, I have a bitter sweet feeling hearing the track as well! I happy yet sad listening to some of my favorite lines being presented as a fusion and extension and a cover version!

Akshay Kumar and his lunatic style are back with Housefull 5. Along with him, there is a bunch of stars, and all of them seem to go rogue in the first song of the comedy film. Titled Laal Pari, the song has been composed and sung by Yo Yo Honey Singh along with Simar Kaur. Lyrics are written by Honey Singh along with Alfaaz.

To begin with, the song is catchy and is placed on the same beats as other Housefull attention seekers. Be it Oh Girl You’re Mine, Anaarkali Disco Chali, or Shaitaan Ka Saala! Laal Pari is from the same Universe, and it grabs attention from the very first beat.

Laal Pari is loud, colorful, and undeniably energetic, ticking all the boxes for a massy dance track. However, while the...

Emraan Hashmi is all set to arrive in the theaters with Ground Zero. The actor plays a Bsf Officer in the film, and unfortunately, yet ironically, the film arrives at a time when Kashmir is in unrest! The last few days have been testing times for all of us as Indians. While the country witnessed terrorism at its peak, leaving our blood boiling, all eyes are on the Government and its decisions that will have an impact much more than our eyes meet!

The last time India witnessed such unrest in Kashmir, it unfortunately, helped deliver the most profitable film on war – Uri: The Surgical Strike, which was widely hailed as it resonated with the sentiments of all the Indians who wanted to avenge the loss of life of the Indian soldiers!

Emraan Hashmi is all set to surprise the audiences in a fierce avatar as a Bsf Officer in Ground Zero. The film is all set to arrive in the theaters on April 26, and the jukebox of the film is already out. The album has four songs with four distinct flavors. While two of them are too topical, the other two might get a place in some of the playlists for some time!

The album, however, misses a chance to deliver a beauty that Bollywood has been missing for a long. It has been long that we got anything as beautiful as Madno from a film around Kashmir. And I am not sure, if we will get the same, looking at the status of music in Hindi films!

Sonu described Rahman as someone entirely absorbed in his music, making it unlikely for most people to develop friendships with him.

Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham.. was released in 2001 and is still considered one of the most iconic films in the Bollywood industry. Almost everything was perfect in this Karan Johar-directed film, from iconic dialogue to the stellar cast. The film’s cast included Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol, Hrithik Roshan, Kareena Kapoor, and Jaya Bachchan, who all delivered great performances. It was a story that beautifully connected love, relationships, and familial bonds.

Its songs were also a significant reason behind its success. One such song was Bole Chudiyan, sung by Kavita Krishnamurti, Alka Yagnik, Sonu Nigam, Udit Narayan, and Amit Kumar. Filming Bole Chudiyan, despite its on-screen ease, had its off-screen challenges, as recently revealed by then-assistant director Nikhil Advani.

All actors waited for someone else to step out from vanity for Bole Chudiyan.

In fact, I was so excited about this heavenly union of the two legends of the Indian Cinema that I even chose to ignore an underwhelming trailer that was compensated by just a glimpse of these two actresses!

But some dreams should never turn into a reality. And as heartbreakingly as I realize, I do realize that anticipating this union, probably with so much excitement, could have jinxed this song that has finally been released, and oh my god – what did I just see!
