| `Noor E Khuda` and `Sajda` have done the trick for My Name Is Khan and Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy. The trio has started off the year well with another hit; `Hey Ya!` has caught on in a big way. Pritam is also enjoying some success with Toh Baat Pakki!, as he keeps the same style, loved by his fans. The latest release includes Road To Sangam, which has music by Sandesh Shandilya, Nitin Kumar Gupta and Prem Haria. The soundtrack explores the devotional genre further with aplomb and credits a range of well known singers like Kavita Krishnamurthi, Hari Haran, Kailash Kher and many others. Striker is an upbeat soundtrack comprising of slow-paced and fast-paced songs. Music is composed by Shailendra Barve, Amit Trivedi, Yuvan Shankar Raja, Swanand Kirkire, Vishal Bhardwaj and Blaaze`. Cham Cham` by Sonu Nigam is simply beautiful. The other tracks are also worth a listen. Hide and Seek has music by Chirantan Bhatt and Gourov Dasgupta. The tracks are catchy with `Kaise Jiyu` and `Friday Night` as the main picks. |
