Rating: **

It’s high time composer duo Sajid-Wajid tried something fresh. The two experimented in “Veer” and tried to move away from their signature style, but they are back to their usual stuff in “Jaane Kahan Se Aayi Hai”. The soundtrack has no retention value and doesn’t have the potential to stand out.

The album offers four originals and two remixes.

It opens with “Keh do zara this” with Rashid Ali behind the mike. The song is an amalgamation of English and Hindi lyrics. It would have made a better impact on the listeners if the lyrics had been written in one language. The love ballad fails to generate interest.

Its remixed version is faster in pace, but has nothing extraordinary.

“Nacha main tere naal” is a predictable Punjabi dance number. Sung by Sonu Niigaam and Soumya Raoh, the fast- paced song gives you a sense of deja vu since one has heard many such songs in the past. You can hear it once.

Next is the title track crooned by Shaan in his soft, melodious voice. The foot-tapping, fast-paced number manages to create an impact thanks to western arrangements.

The remix version is average.

Finally, the album concludes with “Koi rok bhi lo”, a romantic track effectively sung by Sunidhi Chauhan and Sonu. The slow-paced song is the best offering of the album. The orchestration and the brilliantly given vocals give the song an edge.

On the whole, the album has nothing new to offer.
