This one is no Tere Naam!

Vaada - The Deadly PromiseThe soundtrack of Vaada – The Deadly Promise fails to live up to the promise.

Coming from the team (director Satish Kaushik and Reshammiya) that gave us the immensely popular Tere Naam last year, it is disappointing to say the least.

The title track of the Arjun Rampal-Amisha Patel-Zayed Khan starrer is a lifeless composition rendered by Kumar Sanu, Udit Narayan and Alka Yagnik.

And it has three versions!

Don't Miss!


This time, it's a ship!


Main Ishq Uska (Babul Supriyo, Alka Yagnik) continues from where the title track leaves off. And the lyrics don't help one bit: Main ishq uska, woh ashiqui meri, woh ladki nahin, zindagi hai meri…

When Teri Kurty Sexy (Shaan, Anuradha Sriram) starts playing, one expects to hear Dholna from Dil To Pagal Hai. Listen carefully: it will remind you of Tere Sang Ek from Zameen.

Udit Narayan and Alka Yagnik also sound very average on Main Deewana. 

But, let's be fair. Allah Ke Bande singer Kailash Kher's rendition of Ud ud ud jaye with Sunidhi Chauhan is a redeeming factor. Himesh Reshammiya's composition compliments the singer's Sufi style of rendition, making it the best song of the album.

On second thought, Maula, by Kavita Seth, is interesting as well. Although rendered like a ghazal, the composition is upbeat. And one doesn't mind the two versions of the song either.

Verdict: The music of Vaada Fails to impress.
