Dil Laga Na, the sequel's equivalent of the anthemic title track from Dhoom, is nowhere near as instantly addictive as Dhoom Machcha Le. That song had a killer refrain that was instantly addictive -- and that is the very quality this song lacks.
There is, further, a plethora of voices -- Sukhbir, Soham Chakrabarty, Jolly Mukherjee, Mahalaxmi Iyer and Suzanne -- but none of them command the song.
If the five songs thus far are, by a generous estimate, passable, Dhoom Again, is an unmitigated disaster.
Asaf Ali Baig writes lyrics for this largely English reprise of Dhoom Machcha Le -- and between the lyrics and the lukewarm vocalization of Vishal Badlani and Dominique Cerejo, this reprise merely makes you eject the CD from your player and cue up the much-played Dhoom soundtrack.
