Thanks to Pakistani singer <strong>Shafqat Amanat Ali<\/strong>, who has churned out catchy tunes by fusing Pakistani and Indian classical music. <\/p>\n<p>If music lovers fell for &#8220;It&#8217;s the time to disco&#8221; from &#8220;Kal Ho Naa Ho&#8221;, they will also love &#8220;<strong>Where&#8217;s the party tonight<\/strong>&#8220;. The romantic and sentimental track sung by Shaan and Vasundhara Das is also a blend of Indian and Western music. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<strong>Tumhi dekho naa<\/strong>&#8220;, sung by Alka and Sonu, is the <strong>best <\/strong>song of the album. It has the feel of &#8220;Suraj hua maddham&#8221; and &#8220;Kuch to hua hai&#8221; and is a feast for the ears. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mitwa Revisited&#8221; is the remix version of the song &#8220;Mitwa&#8221; which sounds quite trendy and cool. <\/p>\n<p>Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy once again have Amitabh Bachchan jiving to their tunes in &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<strong>Rock &#8216;n roll soniye<\/strong>&#8220;. Shankar&#8217;s voice modulation may have many thinking that Amitabh himself has sung the number. <\/p>\n<p>The last track, &#8220;<strong>Farewell trance<\/strong>&#8220;, is an instrumental number and is worth listening. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After the huge musical hits &#8220;Kuch Kuch Hota Hai&#8221;, &#8220;Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham&#8221; and &#8220;Kal Ho Naa Ho&#8220;, Karan Johar has hit the right notes again with &#8220;Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna&#8220;, which is already a chartbuster.
