In 2006, if I had been eagerly waiting for Fanaa, this year, the wait is on for U, Me aur Hum. I was very apprehensive to spend 150 bucks on the audio CD of Ajay Devgan's directorial debut as I have had bad experiences in the past with his home productions like Raju Chacha. In the end, I mustered some courage and did buy the CD.
The music director of this album is Vishal Bharadwaj and I must say, that he has confused me completely on how should I write this review. The music is not bad at all, in fact, it is good at most places and I as a not-so-musically-bent listener am not able to judge if these songs would be liked by everyone. Vishal Bharadwaj is a extremely talented person and that shows in all the songs of the album.
The album starts with Jeele Jeele, obviously the pick of the lot, a mesmerising rendition by Adnan Sami and Shreya Ghoshal with a salsa touch to it.
The second song is the title track by Shrey Ghoshal. It is romantic, it is feel good and it is a good song as well. It reminds you of 'Jaadu Hai Nasha Hai' from Jism. The light guitar piece in the song is my favourite.
Sunidhi Chauhan's Saiyyan is another noteworthy number and is the third song on the album.
My not-so-favourite song of the whole album is Phatte by Adnan Sami and Sunidhi Chauhan. This punjabi flavored song has nothing to write home about.
The next song of the album is Dil Dhakda Hai by Adnan Sami and is a different number although not on my favourite list.
The album ends with Vishal's rendition of the title track which is soulful but tends to bore you.
The highlights of the album are that all in all its a feel good album, with simple yet some beautiful lyrics by Munna Dhiman setting the mood for a love story that 'U Me aur Hum' is supposed to be. And I can't stop imagining how the songs will be picturised as each song is in a genre of its own. The choreographer must have lots of creativity.
