Following a group of small-town, DIY Indian filmmakers, Reema Kagti’s “Superboys of Malegaon” is a moving crowd-pleaser that constantly reaffirms its importance through its central theme. Although the film, which is based on real events, often tries to cover too much ground, it continually circles back to the idea that people must see themselves reflected in art, not just out of want, but out of deep desire stemming from need, in order to live with dignity.
Spanning events from 1997 through the early 2010s, the Bollywood biopic primarily follows photographer and wedding videographer Nasir Sheikh (Adarsh Gourav), a lovelorn man in the tiny city of Malegaon, whose few-hundred-mile distance from Mumbai, India’s financial and cinematic capital, may as well be measured in lightyears. Nasir runs a failing movie theater with his older brother Nihal (Gyanendra Tripathi), where he insists on showing Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplin classics rather than the latest Bollywood fare,...

Director Sooraj Barjatya is back with his eternal Prem (Salman Khan) in tow in Prem Ratan Dhan Payo, which looks a fun throwback to the Rajshri blockbusters like Hum Aapke Hain Kaun and Hum Saath Saath Hain. He’s roped in Himesh Reshammiya, who is no stranger to retro sounds with his composing work, which is both his weakness and strength to haters and fans. Yet Reshammiya shows that he’s up to task in recreating the big and grand spectacles of the Rajshri songs. If we were to compare the soundtrack to a food, it’s like a comfort food that delivers the goods for that short while, which is part of the Rajshri treatment that we’re getting after so long.
The album kicks off with Prem Leela, which is a big and brassy number that was unveiled last week. The song is your characteristic Salman song with the loud dhols and drums,...

The Barjatya’s and TSeries have surely got the timing right (just before the festival of Navratri) when it comes to releasing the first song from Rajshri Productions epic Prem Ratan Dhan Payo. The promo of the song titled ‘Prem Leela’ released online today and has been receiving exceptional reviews across Social Media.
The song has been composed by Himesh Reshammiya, with lyrics by Irshad Kamil and has main vocals by playback singer Aman Trikha and Vineet Singh. Aman has done an exceptional job with the vocals and sings for Salman for the second time (he also sang the very popular song ‘PoPo’ from Son of Sardaar). Himesh has definitely gone back to his roots with this album and has given it a very traditional sound; a sound that many think has been missing from Bollywood for a very long time. The very catchy music features traditional festive beats and...

Action Jackson is an upcoming action/comedy starring Ajay Devgn, Sonakshi Sinha, Yami Gautam and Kunal Roy Kapoor in the leading roles. Directed by the great Prabhudeva, the film is scheduled for release on 5 December and promises to be an adrenaline-pumping action caper. The music to the film has been composed by Himesh Reshammiya, with lyrics from Shabbir Ahmed. So does the music to Action Jackson offer us anything interesting? Read on to check out our thoughts on it!
To kick start the album, we have Keeda sung by Himesh Reshammiya and Neeti Mohan. The song sounds strange to me and I think this is due to poorly produced music by Himesh, as well as bad lyrics too. It just does not spark your interest in any way and I found it difficult to engage with the song overall. A disappointing effort on Himesh’s part who I feel could...

A soundtrack that is currently making waves in Bollywood, is the music of Prabhu Dheva’s Action Jackson. An album that has music by the extremely talented composer Himesh Reshammiya, has recently released its second song promo Punjabi Mast.
After giving the music for Son of Sardar and Bol Bachchan, this is the third time that Himesh is working with Ajay Devgn. The Son of Sardar title track (sung by Himesh and popular singer Aman Trikha) had become so famous, that it was the ringtone of nearly all in Punjab. Now Himesh is back with a new Punjabi anthem in the form of Punjabi Mast.
The promo sees a vibrant and energetic Ajay Devgn and Sonakshi Sinha. The song is extremely catchy and features a host of singers (Himesh, Vineet Singh, Alam Gir Khan, Ankit Tiwari & Neeti Mohan )
This is also, not the first time where Himesh has created a...
