Melodious and Soul-lifting

Chances are you’re already bored of this song, but that doesn’t change the fact that it’s awesome!

Sung by Neeraj Shridhar (of Bombay Vikings), the song is romantic without being boring and mushy. It’s really difficult to find tracks that are soothing to the soul, yet catchy. But the title track of Tum Mile is a lovely blend of fun and romance.

The film stars Emraan Hashmi and Soha Ali Khan. The music has been composed by Pritam. Time will tell us if this tune is original, or as always he’s nicked it from some Indonesian or other South Asian country’s song.

Don’t worry!

Everyone seems to like “Fiqrana”, the latest song from Blue. But it’s surprising that most people don’t know what the word really means…does it mean to worry? Or not to worry? Go figure:P

The song is beautiful, that’s for sure. Abbas Tyrewala has done complete justice to A R Rehman’s soulful tune. He’s struck gold again with this album. Good job Mr Rehman.
