Kahaani - Movie Review

In Aami Shotti Bolchi, Vishal-Shekhar conjure the sights, smells and a feeling of Kolkata within their sounds, driven by Vishal's spunky writing. Light jazz helps reduce into swing music having a simplistic five-note lick playing through Usha Uthup's racy lines for example: Dil ka bazaar hai, thoda bizzare hai...Kolkata khwaaishon, armaano ka aachaar hai. While Usha uses her inimitable zest to create every line her very own, Bollywood's first encounter with new-age metal finally comes through - although inside a special appearance - as Vishwesh Krishnamoorthy, our prime-spirited singer from the indie hardcore metal band Scribe, menacingly growls the chorus amongst a rain storm of altered guitars and thumping drums. For Piya Tu Kaahe Rootha Re, Javed Bashir, ace singer of Pakistan's Mekaal Hasan Band, throws expansive aalaaps against a synth-bass intro which will help remind you from the lead-directly into Bon Jovi's Living On The Prayer. Below is really a recip...
