The film is being called a musical, but the worst part about it is its music!
The title song Balle Balle has a racy start and begins well. But halfway through, it slows down.
You wonder whether it is a Punjabi song or a typical Bollywood number, with Sonu Nigam and Gayatri Iyer pitching in with Punjabi lyrics.
Tumse kahen ya, hum na kahen is a slow number, and much better. The problem is, you may not recollect the song after listening to it.
It's just not catchy enough. The sad version of the song is good, but again, it suffers from the same problem.
But this is the best song in the album, as far as lyrics (by Javed Akhtar) are concerned.

No life without wife
is a peppy and youthful song. It arises from a situation about what kind of a man or woman would need a spouse to settle down. It is passable.Payal bajake, sung by Gayatri Iyer and written by Dev Kohli and Gurinder's husband Paul Mayeda Berges, is not worth a mention.
Lo shaadi aayi is sung by Kunal Ganjawala, Anu Malik, Alka Yagnik, Sunidhi Chauhan and Gayatri Iyer. I wonder why there is bhangra, interspersed with slow and fast tunes. It seems to be a mix of everything.
Dola dola is a Navratri song, but the music is too loud. The lyrics are simply Barse sawan, aaja sajan. Why was this song made? And why, among all, did Anu Malik write the lyrics for this song?
Overall, the music of Balle Balle! Amritsar to LA disappoints.
