An extended sound of flute takes you to the 70s just when 'Jiya Dhadak Dhadak Jaye' begins. Composed by Rohail Hyat and Faisal Rafi and sung by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan it has a great nostalgic value.

Next comes 'Aadat', a track by Atif that has music by Goher Mumtaz. A painful track, but it is undoubtedly a brilliant song. The song appears twice again in the album, once sung by 'Jal The Band' and the second time being remixed by DJ Suketu, and sounds good all the time.

A seductive song that appears to have been shot at a pornographic hub, 'Dheere Dheere' by Anu Malik is on low pitch throughout with Alisha Chinai attempting an air of seduction throughout.

Not a bad hear but then one may want to hang on to 'Jiya Dhadak' and 'Aadat'! After Abhijeet Sawant (Aashique Banaya Aapne) and Rahul Vaidya (Shaadi No.1), it is the turn of yet another Indian Idol finalist Amit Sana to get his first song for playback singing in a Bollywood movie.

'Thi Meri Dastan' is a duet between the youngest new entrant and veteran Anuradha Paudwal and is based on melody. Weakest song of the album, 'Ye Pal', comes up towards the end.

Quite average, it tries to be a happy-go-lucky youthful track about living every moment in life but doesn't sound too vibrant.

Coming across as a track belonging to one of those numerous non-film albums that hit the stands every second week, it has just some passable singing by Nazam Sheraz.

In the end, it is primarily 'Aadat' and 'Jiya Dhadak Dhadak' that stay with you once the album is over.
