The soundtrack of “Ferrari Ki Sawaari” doesn't take you on a rollercoaster ride, but with five lyricists at his helm, Pritam has managed to dole out a tight album. It has an array of tracks, which will be capable to generate a contented and positive response from listeners.
The album starts with “Maara re”, penned by Swanand Kirkire and crooned by Sonu Nigam, Rana Majumdar, Aishwarya Nigam and Ashish. A song devoted to cricket, it comes on the height of the Indian Premier League (IPL) fever. A fun and frolic anthem, it impresses with its peppy composition and galvanizing words. Special credit goes to Sonu Nigam for not dominating the song along with his voice and providing ample space to the opposite singers.
Next up is the gorgeous “Rusy’s theme”, an instrumental track with a Spanish touch. The composition could be very soothing to the ears and it may be heard on loop.
The third number is the much-hyped “Mala jau de”, which marks the entry of Vidya Balan into the arena of item numbers. The song has elements of Lavani with Guru Thakur’s lyrics getting an apt treatment by the refreshing voice of Urmila Dhangar. Pritam too has given an excellent and authentic composition. This one surely deserves kudos.
“Ae mere mann”, crooned by Shyamantan Das, is a motivational song. His voice provides the easiest base for this superb track, which talks a couple of child’s struggles in life and the way he can overcome them. It also has a good looking chorus.
It is followed by another peaceful song “Good night”, a sweet lullaby sung brilliantly by Priyani Vani Pandit. Its melodious tone slowly takes over your heart and soul, leaving you with a sweet comforting sensation.
Up next is the title track of the film “Chal ghoomne”, an upbeat number which instantly makes you jump with joy. Although Shaan is most prominent within the track, Boman Irani and Aayush Phukan’s vocal support pack an additional punch within the song. It plays on perfectly with the theme of the film.
The last song within the album is “Yeh mausambi si”, a foxtrot roughly track sung by K. Mohan, with lyrics by Satyanshu and Devanshu Singh. Essentially the most appealing a part of it's the whistling motif within the background.
Overall, the “Ferrari Ki Sawaari” music album impresses with its positive energy and happy-go-lucky feel. The compositions are good and offer variety. There’s something for everybody here. – IANS
