PRITAM does it again in APKGK!
Ajab PREM Ki Ghazab Kahani, produced by Ramesh Taurani and directed by Rajkumar Santoshi, is a forthcoming romantic comedy starring Ranbir Kapoor, Katrina Kaif and Upen Patel in the lead roles.
The album has 14 songs in total including remixes.
Tera Hone Laga Hoon, written beautifully by Ashish Pandit and sung amazingly by Atif Aslam and Alisha Chinoy (one of my personal favourites), is a soft romantic number that has SUPERHIT written all over it. And for the first time, I felt that Neeraj Shridhar singing the English lyrics at parts in a Pritam song sounds nice. Mohit Chauhan would’ve been as appropriate as Atif Aslam for this song. In fact I found the feel of this song similar to that of Kahin Na Lage Mann from Kismat Konnection. Everything is just so beautiful about this song…be it lyrics, music, vocals, chorus singing those nice things in the background. A fabulous song! =D> – 4.5/5
There is also a remix version of Tera Hone Laga Hoon by DJ Suketu, which is really good as well. – 4/5
Next comes Tu Jaane Na, a romantic track which is very Indian and has a classical feel. Atif Aslam’s vocals and Irshad Kamil’s lyrics both are absolutely amazing. Tabla beats sound nice in the background. – 4/5
Tu Jaane Na – Reprise has vocals by Soham (who sang Pritam’s Khudaya Khair), Rana Mazumdar and Ashish Pandit. Soham has done full justice to the song and sounds as good as Atif’s version. – 4/5
There is also a remix version of Tu Jaane Na which has a completely different feel than the original song. This remix has a western feel. – 4/5
Oh By God, a fast paced number sung by Mika Singh and Sunidhi Chauhan will just make you say WTF! Moreover, I cannot imagine Katrina Kaif who has a British accent singing things like 'by god' in a pure desi way Sunidhi sings it. Cannot really blame Irshad Kamil for WTF lyrics since he would’ve just written as per the film maker’s demands. – 1/5
Javed Ali and Jojo come together for a romantic song with modern feel, Aa Jao Meri Tamanna. Irshad’s lyrics and Pritam’s music both are good. Overall, a decent number! I can already imagine frandshippers singing Aa Jao Meri Tamanna to Tammy! – 3/5
The remix version of Aa Jao Meri Tamanna has an electro feel and the tempo has been raised. I found this remixed version slightly better than the original. – 3/5
Hard Kaur starts off Main Tera Dhadkan Teri with some rap. KK and Sunidhi Chauhan have sung this foot tapping peppy dance number. The way kuch yaar nazar nahi aata, ghar-baar nazar nahi aata, sansar nazar nahi aata jab pyaar hota hai part goes sounds familiar…any plagiarism/inspirations here? Or is it just me?? And I wonder who else has rapped in the song apart from Hard Kaur. Anyway, a decent track! – 3/5
Extra beats in the remix version of Main Tera Dhadkan Teri makes it sound more energetic than the original track. The remix has an electro feel. – 3/5
Prem Ki Naiyya also has a remix version, which unfortunately also fails to impress. – 1.5/5
Finally, there is Follow Me, a 2:52 min short rap song written and sung by Hard Kaur. I personally found it to be an average track but people into Desi-Rap and Hard Kaur fans would definitely like it. – 2.5/5
---
Overall, this album has some AMAZING songs, some average songs and some bad songs. I don’t know if Pritam has plagiarised anything this time or not. I don’t give a hoot about plagiarism if Pritam can come up with extraordinary tracks like Tu Jaane Na and Tera Hone Laga Hoon.
The best tracks of the album are Tera Hone Laga Hoon (both versions) and Tu Jaane Na (all four versions) and Aa Jao Meri Tamanna.
Rating for the Album – 3/5

Lyre, is a stringed musical instrument, where the two arms jut out on one side of the instrument's body and at their tips support a yoke or crossbar to which gut strings are attached. The strings run to the body, across the belly or soundboard, over a bridge, and to a stringholder at the lower end of the belly.
In the case of box lyres, the body and belly form a hollow wooden box adn the image of thebox lyre is shown below
But in the bowl lyres, the body may be a tortoise shell or carved bowl, and the belly is usually of animal skin. Box lyres with asymetrical arms were known in ancient Sumeria by 2800 bc and this western Asian lyre was also played in ancient Egypt, as was a smaller symmetrical lyre. Lyres were extremely popular in Greece and were associated with the god ApolloTh epicture of the bowl lyres is shown below
Two main varieties were made. The kithara, played by professional musicians, was a box lyre with thick, symmetrical, hollow arms; it was plucked with a plectrum, or pick. The lyra, played by amateurs and plucked with the fingers, was a bowl lyre, typically a tortoise shell with a belly of bull's hide.
The kinnor of the ancient Hebrews, the instrument of King David, was like the kithara. In modern times similar lyres, with or without a bridge, are played in East Africa. They include the beganna, which was also like the kithara, and the lyra-like krar, both of Ethiopia. In African and ancient lyres the strings are wound around the crossbar and tightened by adjusting the windings or by inserting small wooden wedges in the windings.
The left-hand fingers are typically used to damp the unwanted strings, while the right-hand fingers are used to sweep across all the strings, either directly or with a plectrum. In the Middle Ages box lyres were widely used in northern Europe until about ad 1000. These lyres usually had crossbars carved of the same piece of wood as the body and arms; they also had tuning pegs.
Bismillah Khan
Early Life
Born on March21, 1916 Bismillah Khan belonged to a family of professional shehnai players. At the age of 6, he moved to Banaras where his material uncle Ali Bux introduced him to the nuances of playing the simple reed instrument, the shehnai. For years to comethe temple Balaji and Mangla Maiya and the banks of Ganga became the young apprentice's favourite haunt where he could practice for hours in solitude. The flowing water of Ganga inspired him to improvise and invent 'ragas' that were earlier considered to be beyond the range of shehnai
