Is Salu... ‘Ready’ for a Hat Trick?

It’s less than a month to go for Salman’s Ready. The actor who has managed to give a Wanted in 2009 and an earth shattering hit like Dabanng in 2010 is all ‘Ready’ on June 3, 2011. The music of the film is already out and one can hear the Dhika Chika track from the film being played all across the country. Salman has already assured his fans that they will get to see the typical heroism of Bollywood in this film. Salman who manged a much needed hit with Wanted by remaking the Telugu super-duper hit Pokiri is again back with a remake in the form of Ready. Ready (titled the same in Telugu) was also a smash hit down south a couple of years ago.

With Anees Bazmee at the helm of affairs, a few changes, Sallu’s punch dialogues and the man himself, this film could sure mark a hat trick for the Dabanng star. Wishing Salman all the best for Ready.

Rating: *** 1/2

Salim-Sulaiman have slowly emerged as creators of amazing and impressive music. With their next album for the movie "Kurbaan", which has Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan, they have proved their prowess yet again. The album boasts of songs that grow on you and are not typical.

There are five originals and one remix in the album.

"Ali maula", brilliantly sung by Salim Merchant himself, has a dark, edgy beginning. The slow-paced devotional number is impactful and has minimal musical arrangements.

The track also has a remixed version, which is faster and introduces more orchestration.

Up next is "Dua" - it exudes freshness and gets an edge with the vocals. Crooned by two very talented singers -- Sukhwinder Singh and Kailash Kher -- the song begins with English lyrics rendered by Marianne D'Cruz Aiman. It has strong musical backing and a qawwali touch, which makes it interesting.

Then comes title track "Kurbaan hua" that has Vishal Dadlani behind the mike. It reminds of "Nazara hai" from the film "8 x 10 Tasveer". Nonetheless, "Kurbaan hua" is a power-packed rock number that does create an impact.

Next is "Rasiya", which is the best song of the album. With the deep and extremely engaging voice of Shruti Pathak, the sensual number instantly strikes a chord with the listener. A semi-classical song like this has come in the forefront after a long time.

Finally there is a pleasing romantic number "Shukran allah" sung by Sonu Niigaam, Shreya Ghoshal and Salim Merchant. Its mellow arrangements make it a soothing and likeable song.

On the whole, the album is worth checking out. Salim-Sulaiman have done a great job yet again. more bollywood updates
