The wait for seeing the dazzling couple of Abhishek
Bachchan and Karisma Kapoor on screen is finally over
with curiously titled 'Haan...Maine Bhi Pyaar Kiya'
(HMBPK). Akhsay Kumar forms the third side of this
love triangle directed by Dharmesh Darshan after
Dhadkan. Expectations from the director-actress are
high after record breaking Raja Hindustani in this
musical love story. HMBPK is produced by Suneel
Darshan, who has earlier given two hits - Jaanwar and
Ek Rishta with Akshay Kumar. After Raja Hindustani and
Dhadkan, Nadeem Shravan and Sameer are roped in again
for HMBPK.
The composers rely mainly on the experience of trio of
Udit Narayan, Alka Yagnik and Kumar Sanu to deliver
the goods. The album starts with 'Hum Yaar Hai
Tumhare' - a melodious love song by Udit Narayan and
Alka Yagnik. Another version of the same number is
'Hum Pyaar Hai Tumhare' where Kumar Sanu gives company
to Alka Yagnik this time around. The song is once
filmed on Abhishek Bachchan and Karishma Kapoor and
the other time it is Akshay Kumar who expresses his
love for the blue eyed girl. Lyrics by Sameer are more
on the poetry side rather than being plain simple.
'Har Kisike Dil Mein' is a lively duet by Udit Narayan
and Alka Yagnik. The arrangement of the song is
typically Nadeem Shravan. Another duet by the same
pair 'Teri Aankhon Ka Andaz' is a better composition
music wise. Though the arrangement is still the same
and there isn't anything new to offer, it still turns
out to be a hummable number, primarily due to the
tried and tested style of song making. An instrumental
of the same is also included in the album.
'Zindagi Ko Bina Pyaar' is a very common song and
despite the presence of Kumar Sanu is just a drag.
Sarika Kapoor who is being mentored by Nadeem Shravan
in their projects isn't utilized much in this number
and is reduced to giving background vocals for this.
Another version is sung by Alka Yagnik but not of much
use as the results are still the same.
'Mubarak Mubarak' by Udit Narayan is a congratulatory
song on the occasion of a marriage. It is all about 'I
WANT YOU TO BE HAPPY TODAY AND FOREVER' kind of a
song. The song picks up in the end with the intense
rendering of 'Haan...maine bhi pyaar kiya hai' from
'Hum Yaar Hai Tumhare'.
There isn't much to say about this album as first of
all there are just five unique numbers out of eight
with 'Hum Yaar Hai Tumhare' and 'Zindagi Ko Bina
Pyaar' having two versions each and an instrumental
for 'Teri Aankhon Ka Andaz'. Having a stamp of one's
style over a musical score is no doubt appreciable but
at least there should be some kind of different
arrangements for a few numbers. Nothing new about the
music of HMBPK. In fact the music of 'Yeh Dil
Aashiqanaa' and 'Raaz' by the same composer duo have
much better content and variety and are far
entertaining. It is surprising to have such a 'COME
AND GO' kind of average score in a Dharmesh Darshan's
movie who has such a good ear for music which was so
evident in his earlier flicks.
