TUM MILE MUSIC REVIEW
Review by : Gayathri Sarangarajan

Music Director : Pritam Chakraborty
Vocals : KK, Mohit Chauhan, Javed Ali, Neeraj Shridhar and Shafqat Amanat Ali
Lyrics : Sayeed Quadri and Kumar

Gangster, Jaanat, Awarapan, Raaz and now Tum Mile. The successful combination of Mahesh Bhatt- Emran Hashmi continues with this movie. To add to this combination is one of Bollywood’s favorite music directors Pritam Chakraborty. Kumar who is a regular with Pritam and Sayeed Quadri has penned the lyrics for the album. With such a combination, expectations naturally run high for an Emraan Hashmi and Soha Ali Khan starrer.

Tum Mile...
Vocals: Neeraj Shridhar

The original version of the first title song is sung by Neeraj Shridhar. A romantic number with a little bit of English lyrics thrown in. The arrangements of instrumentals are melodious and ring softly in the background. The lyrics are good; however the song is not very impressive.

Tum Mile (Love Reprise)...
Vocals: Javed Ali

The next version of the title song is sung by Javed Ali. Here again the track begins very slowly. Music has been given more importance in this track. The strings, keys with
  Tum Mile
 
light beats surely make it a soft romantic number. The special electronic guitar parts in between are good. Even though the song is a little song it has got a very nice ring to it and makes it a pleasant listening experience. This is a song that is bound to be picked by those in love. Javed’s voice suits better for this song.

Tum Mile – Rock Version...

Vocals: Shafqat Amanat Ali

The last version of the title track is sung by Shafqat Amanat Ali. This number also begins slowly. Set in a rock mode, electronic guitar has been used to a greater extent. Shafqat has added more emotion to the lyrics giving the song a better feel. The Pakistani singer’s performance is certainly getting better since his all time hit Mitwa from Kabhi Alvidaa Naa Kehna. The beats are quite good. This number also will surely be a hit.

Dil Ibaadat ...

Vocals: KK

The perfect choice of singer for this song one would say. KK has weaved his magic again for this track giving the right emotions and modulations which makes the song a hit. Could be a prejudiced statement but somehow when the song is about pain and love, KK fits the role perfectly. (Remember Tadap Tadap from Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam?) This song has Pritam written all over it - his traditional soft melodious poetic rendition.


Dil Ibaadat – Rock Version...
Vocals:
KK

The rock version of Dil Ibaadat is certainly better than the original version. With a lot of strings, electronic guitar and beats that give a rocky feel this track will surely be famous.


Tu Hi Haqeeqat...
Vocals:
Javed Ali

Another romantic number sung by Javed Ali has some sufi tunes thrown in here and there. At this stage you start to wonder; yet another solo, so there are no duets in the movie? Javed has performed very well, the lyrics are good and the tunes are easy to memorize.


Iss Jahan Mein...
Vocals:
Mohit Chauhan

A very teenager, college crowd puller song with quite catchy tunes. The variety of the instruments shows the good arrangements. The beats, the saxophone bit, with the keys makes it a good combination. Although the music is fast and racy Mohit’s voice has a melody to it making it a good combination.


Oh Meri Jaan
Vocals: KK

The second track in the album which has been sung by KK. A very soulful number that will be famous with the girls, especially the ones in love. The lyrics are about love and missing the one you love, if one could say a perfect yorker for KK to hit a six and that’s exactly what he has done.


Soul of Tum Mile

The theme music of the album is instrumental. It begins with the sound effects of a thunderstorm and then the music is slow and silent so one wonders whether there is a storm brewing. And yes, the storm begins with effects that make it intriguing and thrilling. Leading on the music becomes dramatic and then slowly drops pace again. Makes you wonder where this piece would be used in the movie. This tune promises interesting visuals. One should wait and see if it has worked on screen.


Verdict:

Tum Mile is a decent listening experience - looks like the success combination has worked out to the team’s favor. There are three versions of the title song and two of them are quite good. An interesting factor to note: there is no duet, which means no female singers. Only male ones have sung all the tracks. Is this one of its kind? No clue.

From the looks of it Pritam’s success continues with this album too. His music is promising and there is variety. From the item hits in Billu, to steady ones in Love Aaj Kal to very soft romantic ones in Tum Mile. Pritam has proved that he can make all kinds of music making him a favorite with directors as well as movie lovers.
