2011 Mid-year Bollywood music report card : Bollywood News

Sachin-Jigar

Wow - F.A.L.T.U.

It was long time ago when Chaar Baj Gaye but the fact remains that the party abhi bhi baaki hai. Sachin-Jigar had made a modest beginning with Tere Sang last year but hints of brilliance were pretty much on display then itself. The confidence shown in them for F.A.L.T.U. was not undone as the composer duo belted out over half a dozen chartbuster tracks for a single film. Their songs were a major contributor to the film battling even World Cup finals and eventually turning out to be a winner.

Hmmm....okay - Shor- In The City

There was limited scope to perform in Shor - In The City and though as an album it didnt quite go the whole hog, there were songs like Saibo and Karma Is a Bitch that did find some audience. However the kind of nationwide popularity was missing this time around.

Not happening - None

Whats in store this year - Hum Tum Shabana

What say?

Just like other new composers who have struck gold this year, even Sachin-Jigar would have to wait till next year to find things getting better for them. For now they would have to be content with Hum Tum Shabana about which nothing can really be predicted. However, buzz around the talented duo is good and one hopes that they justify a good beginning which they have enjoyed.

Krsna

Wow - Tanu Weds Manu

No one had heard of Krsna before Tanu Weds Manu happened. In fact even when Saddi Galli was turning out to be a chartbuster, not many expected that it would go the whole hog. But then many other songs started working as well and till the time F.A.L.T.U., Ready and Delhi Belly happened, it was the sound of Tanu Weds Manu all the way.

Hmmm....okay - None

Not happening - None

Whats in store this year - None

What say?

Krnsa is now expected to be inundated with offers to compose music which carry a rustic feel with mitti ki khushboo. It would be interesting to see though if he now aims at experimenting with sound as well. Though there is nothing for him in the pipeline this year, expect Krsna to be heard a lot more next year.
