The album has a range of songs to appeal to all sorts of people. The stand out track is Pehn Di Takki, an upbeat, techno dance number along the lines of Disco Deewane. Vishal Dadlani lends his voice to this one, the Punjabi lyrics & the beats of the song will make this the next dance number!
Mann Bawra is another notable track - the music, the lyrics and the vocals connect straight to the heart. This masterpiece is sung by Shekhar Ravjiani, lovestruck souls are sure to connect to this one.
Another track worth mention is Baby Se Babydoll - it has a strong desi vibe. The lyrics are a mix of Bhojpuri, English & Hindi, paired with the funky music, this one keeps the party going! The blend of desi & contemporary makes this a song that is sure to stick in your mind.
Other tracks like Dil Kaagzi - that has a certain waltz-y feel - and We Are Like This Only - the unapologetically loud and in your face song - round off the album. The subtler beauties - Mann Bawra & Dil Kaagzi are what make the album stand out and take it to a whole other level.
