Adhrustam... Aditya Music... Rs. 38
CAN YOU recollect the song Yayire yayire zor lagake nachere (Rangeela), especially the part in the child's voice? If yes, you can easily associate with Sairo sairo in Adhrustam. Hollywood handsome hero in Vasundhara Das's husky voice (accompanied by Karthik) is the highlight of the album where the drumbeats sound subtle yet noticeable as though they have been mixed at a different level. Music composer Dina is not new to the Telugu-Tamil audiences whose tunes (for Tamil movies, most of which are dubbed into Telugu) never failed to register.
The musician does not disappoint this time too. On the flip side, Moraakko in Sukvinder Singh and Harini's voices is another attractive number. Though Adhrustam may not be like Nuvve Kaavali, yet the album has its own charm and can adorn your cassette rack.
Jayam... Aditya Music... Rs. 40
IN TODAY'S films, it is a rare thing to accommodate ten songs. The more the number of songs, the difficult the composer's task becomes. But, R.P. Patnaik, who proved his worth and joined the big league of composers with Santhosham, has come out with refreshing numbers in Jayam.
Not a single tune is monotonous or repetitive. Somehow, one feels that Patnaik prefers slow, rustic and traditional tunes to modern fast-beat numbers. This album is not an exception. One hearing of Veeri veeri gummadi pandu, Sabbasi sabbasi and Nestama and one can make out the R.P. mark.
Singer Usha (of Tuniga fame) finds pride of place in this album. Apart from being a composer, Patnaik is a good singer too and his renditions - especially Enduko and Priyatama - are quite pleasant to hear. Definitely worth buying.

Mere Yaar ki Shaadi Hai... Saregama (HMV)... Rs. 55
THIS IS one of the lesser-hyped films of the Yashraj Films banner. Jeet-Pritam seem to just take off from where Jatin Lalit left. The music is in sync with the mood of the film - a love triangle of a different sort.
The music isn't innovative The ripped off tunes are blended to create the songs - which are fast-paced. . Similarly Asha Bhonsle's Sharara seems to be a wasted effort.
The television promos are highlighting the `wedding spirited' song Mere Yaar ki shaadi hai (which is one of the better songs along with Ek Ladki). Hum dono Jaisa sounds like a Kamal Khan's number with its pulsating beats.
The other two Jaage Jaage and Humne Suna hai are just about average.
Generally one of the USPs of Yash Chopra's films is the music.
This effort pales in front of the other ventures.
