Music Review: Yuvvraaj

yuvvraaj yuvraj movie music review

Subhash Ghai is one guy who knows how important music is for a Bollywood movie. He makes a good effort to ensure quality to the last bit. His soundtracks sell better than his films sometimes. Remember Taal? A.R Rahman’s music topped the charts for a really long time and the film blew up at the box office. Subhash Ghai is back with another flick titled Yuvvraaj. The film stars Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif, Anil Kapoor and Zayed Khan in lead roles. The music has been composed by A.R Rahman and the lyrics have been penned down by Gulzar. A typical Subhash Ghai menu. Yuvvraaj is slated for a November release. The music is finally out so let’s check it out!

 

Track Listing

01. Yuvvraaj - Main Hoon Yuvvraaj
02. Yuvvraaj - Tu Meri Dost Hain
03. Yuvvraaj - Shano Shano
04. Yuvvraaj - Tu Muskura
05. Yuvvraaj - Mastam Mastam
06. Yuvvraaj - Zindagi
07. Yuvvraaj - Dil Ka Rishta
08. Yuvvraaj - Manmohini Morey
09. Yuvvraaj - Shano Remix

The soundtrack starts with Salman Khan with the fifth of Beethoven trying to introduce his character in the film. As usual he’s more confusing than ever. Skip it and move to the next track Tu Meri Dost Hain (it is actually Hain and not Hai) which starts off really well. Sung by Banny Dayal and Shreya Goshal, the song is a soothing melody. The next track Shano Shano is a surprise from A.R Rahman. It sucks right from the moment it begins. Tu Muskura by Alka Yagnik and Javed Ali is another soft number. Gulzar’s lyrics are not as extraordinary as they usually are. Mastam Mastam is a typical A.R Rahman melody. It will remind you of Saathiya. Zindagi, the next track, reminds me of Hariharan. Rang De Basanti has a track which could easily be blamed for this song. Skip the next track. Manmohini Mere is my favourite track in the entire soundtrack. It has been sung by Vijay Prakash, a dude I have never heard of before, but he managed to make up for the bad music in the album. A slow yet excellent track. The soundtrack ends with a remix of Shano Shano. The remix is actually better than the original version.

On the whole, I really hope the double ‘V’ and ‘A’ work for Yuvvraaj. The soundtrack isn’t worth the money at all. Except for two tracks, the soundtrack is dull. Subhash Ghai and A.R Rahman have managed to disappoint. Finally!

    i dont agree with ure review… (plzz dont think that this is Jaane tu ya jaane na or whatever ure thinking)…n the tracks remind me of taal n all the tracks r very different…maybe if u see songs with visuals u might change ure review…

  2. Gravatar Icon 2 harsh

    you suck big time..you have no knowledge what so ever about music…the album will be a bigger hit than Taal..all the songs are exceptional..its Rahmans music it will grow on you..I bet you will change your review in the coming weeks..you suck big time!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Vijay Prakash is a tamil singer.

  4. Gravatar Icon 4 BharatBoom

    Well Right now 2 songs are dam good and the last track remix is also a AR’s Magic wait and watch other songs will also come good once you see the cinematography

    I think worth spending money on the album

  5. Gravatar Icon 5 mamata

    I have already listened these songs more than 25 times.I can not get enough. I don’t know what are you saying. are you sure your review is of yuvvraaj and not personal agenda with salman, because you are more eager to give your opinion about him rather than listening song. if you are going to review about anything you better listen that carefully.

  6. Gravatar Icon 6 dev

    u must listen 2 the songs of Yuvvraaj again.
    u have already gave the wrong review for Jhodha-akbar, which was full of awesome songs. same u have done with JTYJN.
    the funda is that u create lot of expectations before and after listening u try to compare it with TAAl or etc.
    Rahman always create situational songs means according to the script. so u will like the music better after watching the movie.

  7. Gravatar Icon 7 Vissagan G.

    Okay…
    A.R. Rahman music has DEPTH, something that most other indian music lack. It’s not some superficial piece of crap that simply sounds catchy - it has meat.
    So listen to the songs a couple more times. There have been many ARR albums that I thought were terrible at first and later loved… :)

  8. Gravatar Icon 8 Raheel

    Hey man,

    Dont even think of reviewing another Rahman album. Just get a life for yourself, relax, and listen to the normal crap you are used to alright.

    Probably u r frustrated in life. I know it sucks! so u need help man!

  9. Gravatar Icon 9 Shubhchintak

    arrer naadaan baalak,
    i think u should better go and listen songs of Karzzzzzzzzzzzzz or Aap ka suroooooor …
    and dont think of reviewing Gulzar and A.R.Rahmaan again …

  10. Gravatar Icon 10 Fameeb

    Hey friend , It is unfair to judge a rahman musical with a single hearing . You have not at all made a comment about the kind of music (in depth) involved in the movie. Your review lacks any punch and is not considered seroius. Just that you are now enjoying early bird advantage in terms of review. I suggest , you get used to Yuvvraaj music and please repost your impressions after a while. C ya then.

  11. Gravatar Icon 11 Krish

    I’ll try to put what the others said in a nice way.

    I don’t blame you for not being a Rahman fanatic. Yours truly is one since Yodha. What you’re missing is the newness in the songs, in the melody, in the rhythm, in the number of instruments, the hidden sound bits in each song. But I guess we’ve been spoilt by people like Pritam, Anu Malik and the ilk. This is not a perfect album but not as rotten as you’re making it sound. But again all opinions are subjective. So cheers!

    Please do me a favour…… Write down da crap u’ve written with the heading “Yuvvraaj- Music Review” and paste it somewhere where there is a long line to buy this album…. let me know if u survive the ass-kicking from actual music lovers… till then… please go get a life… u badly need one… and yeah… himesh’s next album might be on da way… please wait for that… dont bother listening to any other “Music”…. u deserve no more than Himesssssh……….!!!!

  15. Gravatar Icon 15 Mangesh

    I dont fully agree with your review, though “Shano” is too electronic and “sucks”! “Tu meri dost” is actually “soothing” as you say. “Zindagi” sounds like a classical number; its good.

    The album is according to me much much better than JTYJN. And of course; it will be a HIT, undoubtedly!

  16. Gravatar Icon 16 Jeffrey Jose

    Get a life, it you are bored with life and doesnt have anything else to do .. go do something else. Please dont review Rahman song unless you are sure about what you are doing.

    I recommend you get this post down, before the flame war begins.

  17. Gravatar Icon 17 Jeffrey

    Did I mention already that you suck ?

  18. Gravatar Icon 18 Jeffrey

    I re-read the review with a neutral mind. I’m listening to the songs as I write this. You really listened to something else.

    OMG OMG OMG, you dared to to review Rahman’s songs with just one hearing. How could you ?. The man spends months perfecting it and you _try_ to downplay it. Good luck.

  19. Gravatar Icon 19 showkath khan

    YOU HAVE NO MUSIC SENSE, PLEASE LISTEN TO BHANGRA AND HIMESH WHo SINGS FROM HIS ASS HOLE. yuvraj is a great album and ar rahman is the best music director we have today. LONG LIVE THE LEGEND.

    hmm……Well the saying goes “The more you hate the songs on the first hearing a ARR album, chances are that they would figure in your list of favourites after few more hearings”. So please leave your ears on lease for few more hearings and then check. I have heard all the songs only 3 times now and i can vouch already that this would turn out to be a landmark album in the history of Bollywood music.

  22. Gravatar Icon 22 anish

    i think this guy was hearing some other songs and doing review for ‘YUVVRAAJ’,man, all the songs are so special, may be the guy is an anti-rahmaniac, or may be he did the review while he was sleeping…..

    yaar just listen to those lyrics, instruments sound…amazing…how can be people so talented…you should give credit to his creativeness, uniueness…

  27. Gravatar Icon 27 Firoz Jehangir

    Dude,
    Give the songs another listen..I rarely love ARR songs at first go but they always grow on me..and there are sufficient incentives in all the songs(I’m speaking of chords and instrumentation which you surely know nothing about)..but I loved this album outright..This is a true epic..And since you think Manmohani is the best song of the album I’m sure you are yet another techno-lover in which you should stick to DJ Music and not DARE judge ARR..

  28. Gravatar Icon 28 Rajiv

    You don’t have any music sense and you are also looking very bais kind of person. Stop reviewing music ASAP. We all be very thankful to you for that Harry!!.

    @All: Lolz…I’m really surprised with these comments. So all you people mean that if I listen to some music and I don’t find it up to the mark and I say it’s not good enough, I am wrong?! Screw you!!! It’s because of people like you that standards remain so low as far as Bollywood music is concerned!

  30. Gravatar Icon 30 Daqu

    Skip the next song after ZINDAGI??? Have U lost ur marbles??? DIL KA RISHTA is a fab song, like it from the first hearing!

    What do you know about the standard? What do you know about music? But it’s sure that you don’t have the good sense of music.

  33. Gravatar Icon 33 mainak

    dude,

    you dare to talk about the standard of music. go listen to the songs of other music directors and a r rahman and then compare. where else rahman like to experiment with new music style, chords and instruments other music director only sticks to repetative style with different rhythm. one who does not have got even that much creativeness, he ends up copying from international music. rahman is one from whom other international star copies from.

  34. Gravatar Icon 34 Daqu

    Yuvvraaj is clearly one of the albums of the year… Harry! Take a break from reviewing… Unless U in BizarroWorld, where everything is the other way round… One thing though, Manmohini Morey is the best song in the album, U are right on that one!

    Are you MAD?
    Why have u given review for A.R.Rahman’s music?
    If there are A.R.Rahman, you don’t need to give review for A.R.Rahman’s music.

    No-One has right to give review for ARR

    Because its a ” A. R. R A H M A N ” (need I say more?)

    wat a crap review is it…go n listen 2 d album 2-3 times more….
    if u still dnt lik it…den i cant help u bro….but a piece of advise for u….dnt review another rahman album ever after…u r nt worth it dude….i mean who r u 2 criticize an album composed by a genius called ar rahman???d soundtrack is mindblowing…..goin 2 top d charts…..dekhke jalta rahiyo…

  48. Gravatar Icon 48 rp9

    the songs really grow on you after u listen to them more than once…try that before writing a review for a A.R.Rahman album…

  49. Gravatar Icon 49 Santy

    Listen HARRY…( first sorry for my english )
    When I was in 2nd standard in my village, Roja movie released and I liked it very much. But that time I didn’t know that who is A R Rahman?.

    Same condition for Humse Hai Muqabula,Rangeela and Jeans I didn’t know who is A.R. Rahman(means I was unknown about ARR).

    when I was 6th standard, listened “Dil se”(on Durdarshan’s Rangoli show)I liked very much and I had recorded cassette from music store…till then I didn’t know who is A R Rahman.( Shame Full)
    But All Movies are my favourite because of only music…
    After sometimes When I realized that all songs are from A.R.Rahman.
    I was shocked…From that point I became VERY BIG FAN of A.R.Rahman (The Boss of music world)

    I don’t know but there is some connection between ARR and Real Music.
    He knows every piece of Music.

    When u will come at my home then you will got only the ARR’s songs on My computer and My mobile.

    Second thing,
    I think you don’t know about he used first Apple laptop for music among the all indian music director. Logic is best music software runs on apple laptop and he uses it for recording. Logic is the best software used by all Hollywood company like Sony Pictures…
    and our other music director doesn’t know hot to use it.

    After all you are Panjabi, You definately have great respect for panjabi music. You have some panjabi music in your mind thats why you are searching panjabi music in every music.

    A.R.Rahman done again good work through Yuvvraaj.

    ——Only with your VICE and MUSIC A.R.Rahman———–

  50. Gravatar Icon 50 Anil

    Hey, It looks like you always judge things much before than you should. First, we normal human being require some time to grasp power of Rahman’s music.

    When I listened to the songs first time, I could not get whole feel and soul behind the songs. Till now I have listened to all songs more than 5-6 times and have started getting soul behind it.

    ARR never does mediocre work, he always does what he feels is right.

    Yuvvraaj songs is not a musical album, it’s a movie and all songs are according the script.

    ARR is not that smart to make only album like songs.

    Listening to songs, gives me feeling that he has worked very hard on those. He must have felt a biggest milestone of his music journey at the launch of music of Yuvvraaj.

    Your review truly sucks. It is A. R. Raman dude. It would be very bad if this post belongs to your blog. Shame on you.

    Btw, if you are fan of cheap songs like some certain music directors, you are then right. As you are from different world.

    Don’t ever try to write a music review ever.

    Thanks.

  51. Gravatar Icon 51 gemm

    well, only two things are true.
    introduction of salman, still the symphony justify by being put it on track list.
    and the second, the remix of shano is better than the original( history tells, the remixes of rahmans, by himself always best!)
    rest of all criticism are 100% crap.i don’t think he can enjoy,criticize,or even understand music!!
    well, am not a big rahaman fan, but i can differentiate the bad work from his good.
    just watch for next few months dear HALLEY PERRY, how this songs gonna rock!!
    DUDES, HOW WE CAN SHUT THIS GUY??? AND HIS WEBSITE TOO..
    IF ANY ONE CAN DO, THAT WILL BE THE BEST FOR ALL INDIANS!

    I’m listening to Yuvvraaj as I type this. I just love the 2nd track ‘Tu Meri Dost Hain’ and didn’t have hope for the rest and thought a review of the album would help.

    Unlike the review the comments for the review helped me a lot more. now I’m undoubtedly sure of the album b’coming a superhit.

    Friends, its not Harry’s Fault.. Techically there is center for music in cerebrum of Brain.unless that is developed properly you cannot appreciate music.

    pls visit http://www.biologyreference.com/Bl-Ce/Brain.html

    “To hear a piece of music, for example, involves the primary auditory cortex, but to recognize that music as Mozart or Elvis Presley involves the auditory association area just below the primary auditory cortex.”

    Honestly,
    I see no point in everyone abusing the life out of this guy. Anyone heard of freedom of speech/expression?
    Harry is completely entitled to like or not like something. So I think we should all let him not like the music, if he does not.

    And btw, from the ‘About me’ Section on Harry’s Own Blog (link on top of this page).

    No I am not being girly here. It’s just that there are some things that are personal. Alright I’m 20. OK 21! Anyways you’ve crash landed on my personal blog. I write crap here. Crap all the time!

    Need I say more? Leave him alone and enjoy the music.

    r u still alive after all of these comments? if i were u i would have commited suicide..u need some serious professional help man..forget about reviewing music.just don’t even bother to go online u piece of crap…YUVVRAAJ is not only Rahman’s best but is a gem for India’s music………

    you right techno phile. to all other guys , leave this kid alone.
    only i am worrying b’coz i lost 15 minitues of my life by reading his review. becoz it’s not worthy, and dont respond to this prview because he may think he wrote somoething precious either good or bad , thats why people keep responding to him.JUST IGNORE HIM.
    get well you soon, kiddo!

    All,

    Please understand Rehmans songs should be listened again and again for atlest 10 times, only then you can understand the flow of the song, i think the person who reviewed this has just heard it once.

    01. Yuvvraaj - Main Hoon Yuvvraaj — “As usual he’s more confusing than ever.” Well, I think u don’t understand Hindi or you have a hearing problem. Get a hearing aid, my friend.

    I suppose this song acts as an introduction to the second song of the album “Tu Meri Dost Hain.”

    02. Yuvvraaj - Tu Meri Dost Hain - Yep, its Hain because Hain is plural of Hai and as you know the song has two male lead singers Benny and ARR, so it must be picturized on the two male lead characters of the film Salman and Anil.

    All i would say is its not a pop album or something of that type…. its a movie soundtrack…music and lyrics are based on the situation of the film story and Yuvraaj’s music is based on western classical like Beethoven Symphony, so one needs to understand these to understand the soundtrack of this film, I suppose. AND THIS IS NOT A COPYCAT ALBUM.

    Oh! by the way, Dil Ka Rishta is one thatz gonna be hit because of its compositions…it has both western classical and hindustani touch to it… a kinda fusion… when u compare to Taal music, “Dil Ka Rishta” is like “Ishq Bina Western” song that Aish sings in the end of the movie with Anil doing the orchestration.

    this is called a review?.. must be joking right? im from france and i loved the music of yuvvraaj though i dont understand the language…its based on western classical music, so i guess its understandable that indians dont get it… a r rahman is a very confident and audacious composer i must say!

    After reading the review I was very upset that how someone could write such a review about may be the best album of 2008. Rahman has touched innumerable souls this time around. I don’t know how many times I have listened to this album in the last two days. Path breaking album I would say. Another Taal. Can’t stop praising Rahman. Harry please remove u r review or stop reviewing. My sincere request. Never before have I seen so many people coming togeather.

    the album was bad and only had 2-3 decent to good songs, but because of the build up and expectations people don’t want to let themselves down by saying it was subpar or mediocre.

    as for those saying “…you have to see the songs to like them…” since when did sight associate itself with hearing music?

    as for those saying “…you need to listen to Rahman songs 4-5 times to like them…” right you force yourself to listen to them the same way a child puts his hands on his ears and says “la la la” i can’t hear you. eventually you adapt and engross yourself in a fantasy world where anything Rahman does is the end all of music.

    as for the backlash and profanities, the review has invaded most peoples emotions, hitting them on a personal level. so denial becomes the perfect defense mechanism.

    please folks stop comparing this to Taal, that was one of the smartest collections of music in modern day India.

    the worst part is all the people trying to over compensate their liking of Rahman by bashing the crap out of the reviewer, making themselves feel better…its rather sad maybe most of them aren’t getting enough punani…i don’t know.

    oh and since when did this thing become about ethnicity?

    “because of u, from now I will not consider any Panjabi’s review…in future.”

    go back to narinder modi land.

    Hi to U all,
    this is one of the worst music review I have ever come across the net. Though I rarely listen most Indian music but I like only AR Rahman, and I never skip his musics. Dear Harry, how you dare to comment below average for this blockbuster musical score? Plz, dont ever comment on music by Rahman…he is an Asian musical legend.

    Wow its great….AR.Rehman s back with a bang..the music is so refreshingly different…Its The great composer who has given a great composition to YUVVRAAJ..The Dreamer and the maestro are back with a great hit..ive already heard more than 20 times and still i9 can get out of it..its too good and what to say..
    Yuvvraaj is another Rehmans feet…..
    Beautiful compositions with the best singers make the music mesmerizing..am sure its going to make every1 addicted..
    Overall a complete package from the Master A.R.Rehman

    Hey Harry..seems u r physically ( deaf ) and psychologically handicapped which provoked u to pass derogatory remarks on A.R.Rahman’s music. He is the living legend of Indian Music.. Dare not to blabber what comes to ur mouth and mind..about ARR..His music transcends all borders,shores, continents..fyi..no other music director..( the so called pritams, maliks ) hv been competent enough to compose music even for Hollywood flicks…

    Come on man…u really make a mockery of urself by giving RedHerrings about ARR’s music..

    Listen to the songs for 2-3 times..before u come to hasty conclusions…

    And I did’nt really mean to hurt u with harsh words but it was inevitable coz Legends like ARR, Sachin..deserve respect and need no one’s guidance,comments in exercising due diligence in their fields..

    guysssssssss please give harry a break….he has his opinion and you guyssss have yours…personally i expected a lot from ar rahman…and even i feel disappointed….too bad a music from someone of the ar rahman calibre…

  76. Gravatar Icon 76 kashif

    mishita go suck harry balls.

    he made a big mistake of life.

    commenting on god of music.

    honestly guys yuvvraaj music is 100% fresh and has a feel of melody.

    I thought u were a fool when I read that the soundtrack was useless. Because there are songs I love. And believe me, they are the same as u said. The Manmohani n all. But I guess the stuff u have talked so badly about is not that bad. It’ll be working with the time n the movie I guess. Anyways, individually, quite fine a review. And extremely precise. Loved ur review. In time, reviews will be like that only.

  78. Gravatar Icon 78 sanika

    I agree with most of my friends here, unless you hear arr’s songs couple of times, you may not like it. His music grows on you.
    I think this guy wants to increase the popularity of his website by writing something like, knowing well how music lovers would respond

  82. Gravatar Icon 82 Sameer

    Yuvvraaj music really good. Harry I read most of above comments and I agree your review suck. You need some break. Take it boy. Do listen to songs again, then try to give update on your review that will help.

  83. Gravatar Icon 83 arjun

    HEY BIG GUY, U REALLY DONT HAVE AN EAR FOR GOOD MUSIC

    U SEEM TO HAVE A TIFF WTH AR RAHMAN

    JST TAKE THE SONGS AS A SIMPLE COMPOSITION AND TRY TO FIND OUT ITS TRUE MEANGING.

    THE BEST WAY TO LISTEN A SONG IS BY CLOSING UR EYES AND LISTENG TO THE MINUTEST BEAST U CAN HEAR.

    THEN U WILL COME TO KNOW ABT THE ORCHESTRISATION OF THE SONGS.
