‘CROOK’ TUNES DON’T CLICK - THE CROOK: IT'S GOOD TO BE BAD MUSIC REVIEW

Not alert to Pritam’s tunes for a continued time does become a bit boring. The active songs aloof go missing from the charts. With Crook: It’s Acceptable To Be Bad he is aback already afresh with his old team, the Bhatts, and aback these two meet, we all apperceive the aftereffect is activity to be outstanding. Do we charge to analysis the almanac book?

Crook’s administrator Mohit Suri too has a acceptable almanac of hit musicals; we assumption it comes accustomed to the administrator whose films accept consistently boasted of some above adventurous hits blood-soaked in agreeable melodies. Crook’s assortment consists of eight songs. And what accept they for us, the listeners? Let’s analysis out:

The anthology starts with the Punjabi song, Challa. Pritam created Aahun Aahun for Adulation Aaj Kal from a folk Punjabi song and the clue was a big hit. Challa too on the aforementioned curve is about aloof in its feel and with a scattering of hip-hop. The acknowledgment of auto and dollars in the song is in the ambience of Indian acceptance who abstraction away (Australia, in this case). The cine is based on ancestral attacks on Indians in Australia. Challa Remix by Tigerstyle is no altered from the original.

Mere Bina is aloof like Pritam’s added adulation hits. The music of the song, crooned by Nikhil D’Souza, calmly strikes a ambit with music lovers. In the abutting offering, Neeraj Shridhar gets to absorb us with the clue Kya. It’s a ablaze adventurous clue which youngsters are activity to enjoy.

With his amorous articulation KK is aback with Tujhi Mein. Admitting the song is accessible on the ears, it sounds a lot agnate to Mere Bina. The admirers may get abashed amid the two songs.

A absolute rendering, and how can we balloon that he is the one who so foolishly sang Tadap Tadap for the blur Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam.

When Pritam is at the captain of diplomacy we can be abiding there is not activity to be a addled moment in the album. His aftermost blur Khatta Meetha’s songs are still arena on the archive admitting the cine is a flop. Unexpectedly, the songs of ‘Crook’ are fair to middling.


What comes as a disappointment is that none of the songs has that agreeable animation the artisan is accepted for. After alert to the aboriginal few songs, the anthology gets repetitive. The music, which is not bad as per Bollywood standard, fails to click. So, one can’t stop apprehensive what went amiss with Pritam this time?
