Crore, a film directed by Faisal Saif which stars Meera, Abhishek Kumar,
Shahwar Ali, Rashid Khan, Kavita Radheshyam, Ranjeet and Nassar Abdulla. The
soundtrack features nine compositions and lyrics by a lot of artists—Faisal
Saif, Rustam Fateh Ali Khan, Devshri Khanduri, Tony Kakkar, Saajan Aggarwal,
Hari Shankar, and Hasan Amin. Here’s a rundown of all nine compositions.
“Kya Wajah Thi Tere Jaane Ki” (4.51) features the melodious Javed Ali along with some supporting vocals by well-known Assamese singer Bandana Sharma. Javed Ali’s humming at beginning, the guitar and strings’ arrangements…it’s all very captivating and establishes a mood of pathos and intensity. The lyrics pose the question of why did one’s beloved abandon them and walk away—“Kya wajaah thi tere jaane ki, phir laut ke naa aane ki?” After a minute, the tabla enters into the composition. Sharma is a talented singer, no doubt, but her vocals sound too chirpy and emotionless in this song. Nonetheless, Ali works wonders—1.46 into the composition his classical rendition of the word “saiyaan” is so beautiful it pierces your heart. “Kya Wajah Thi Tere Jaane Ki” is a song all about heartbreak, distance and longing. “Itnaa bhi naa socha tum ne baad tumhare jaane ke hum kaise jeeyengey, jaan-e-jaana. Nahn jeenaa, marr jaayengey.” Tissues, please.
Rustam Fateh Ali Khan puts his classical sangeet training to use in “Aaye Nahi Chain Kate Nahin” (4.27). He has good control over his vocals, and at the end of the composition he displays great gaayaki with his alaaps. But, the percussion arrangement and the use of the electric guitar 2.25 into the song is extremely out of place and clashes with Khan’s soft vocals.
“O Sone Ke Kangna-Female” (3.05) is the strongest and most memorable song from this soundtrack. Shibani Kashyap’s vocals are deep and stand out even if the Punjabi flavor doesn’t come across perfectly—her vocals definitely leave an impact regardless. The strings and piano are prominent and maintain a serious tone that keeps you hooked the entire time. Even after you’re done hearing the song you can’t get the melody out of your mind! The lyrics are cute and revolve around giving up your heart and mutual affection and all the good things that come with two-way love! “Dil denaa dil lehenaa, hai sauda ek jaisaa.” Leonard Victor’s “O Sone Ke Kangna-Male” version is also gorgeous.
“Kamsin” (3.29) is a seductive song with lust-filled lyrics and husky vocals by Manjira. Everything about this song is oozing attitude and naughtiness.
