Kabhi
Alvida
Na
Kehna,
Fanaa
and
Gangster
rules
the
past
weeks
music
charts.
Trailing
in
after
them
comes
the
soundtrack
of
the
Superhero
flick
Krrish.
Himesh
Reshammiya
takes
the
next
with
the
soundtrack
of
Ahista
Ahista
and
then
with
36
China
Town,
tenth
on
the
list.
Rang
De
Basanti
is
fighting
out
strong
followiing
Ahista
Ahista
at
the
sixth
position.
It
is
has
been
the
longest
on
teh
charts
and
seems
to
be
a
keeper.
The
charts
latest
newcomer
Pyaar
Ke
Side
Effects
has
debuted
at
a
good

New
KANK
As
expected,
KANK
tops
the
charts
within
a
week
of
the
official
launch
of
music.
Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy
and
Javed
Akhtar
belt
a
musical
score
that
has
all
the
ingredients
of
a
score
suited
for
a
Karan
Johar
film.
Melodies,
dance
floor
numbers,
situational
tracks
-
it
has
it
all!
Detractors
say
that
the
strength
of
the
music
is
its
weakness
i.e.
the
music
is
highly
predictable
and
follows
the
same
old
routine
of
a
Johar/Chopra
soundtrack.
Well,
global
audience
wanted
exactly
that
and
majority
is
a
satisfied
lot

Fanaa
Just
like
the
box
office
collections,
the
album
sales
of
the
film
also
fall;
though
not
due
to
'Phir
Hera
Pheri'
but
the
arrival
of
'KANK'.
The
biggest
productions
houses
in
Bollywood,
Yash
Raj
Films
and
Dharma
Productions,
continue
to
rule!
Remix
version
if
'Chand
Sifarish',
'Fanaa
For
You'
could
be
better
promoted
with
added
visuals
from
the
film

Gangster
Even
though
Vishesh
Films'
'The
Killer'
has
arrived,
it
is
their
'Gangster'
that
continues
to
be
at
the
Top.
Pritam
has
reasons
to
cheer
since
his
'Pyaar
Ke
Side
Effects'
has
entered
the
charts
as
well
Quality
wise
none!

Krrish
Now
is
the
time
that
could
be
decisive
for
the
album
sales
of
'Krrish'.
The
film
has
released
and
normally
the
sales
show
an
upward
trend.
Will
the
same
hold
good
for
'Krrish'
too?
With
KANK
embarking
on
a
great
start,
new
entry
'Ahista
Ahista'
just
a
being
a
place
down
and
PKSE
showing
promise,
the
place
of
Krrish
is
in
danger.
Meanwhile
upcoming
albums
'Golmaal'
and
'Anthony
Kaun
Hai'
carry
a
chartbuster
appeal
too!

New
Ahista
Ahista
This
Himesh
Reshammiya
album
with
a
relatively
new
cast
and
moderate
publicity
has
made
an
impressive
entry
at
No.
5
on
the
charts.
If
there
is
a
Reshammiya
album
after
'Aksar'
that
has
impressed
most,
it
is
'Ahista
Ahista'.
With
a
great
soundtrack
to
boast,
it
has
only
way
to
go
in
the
charts
-
UP!
None.
And
those
who
don't
swear
by
Reshammiya
even
till
date
are
hardly
enough
in
number
to
be
accounted
for!

Rang
De
Basanti
The
oldest
album
in
the
charts,
it
is
still
going
strong
as
it
works
North
and
South,
East
and
West.
Rehman
comes
up
with
a
universal
score
that
breaks
all
cultural
and
regional
boundaries
None.
It's
as
classy
as
it
gets
within
commercial
boundaries

New
PKSE
Surprise
of
the
week!!
Within
2
days
of
its
release,
it
has
found
a
place
in
the
Top-10
charts,
and
that
too
in
spite
of
a
controlled
publicity.
Pritam
strikes
again,
this
time
with
a
hip-hop
soundtrack
Beyond
2-3
hip-hop
tracks,
there
is
not
much
to
write
home
about.
Now
everything
depends
upon
how
far
these
tracks
go

Reshammiya
dominates
numerous
compilations
of
his
recent
songs
and
'Everybody
on
the
dance
floor-Session
2'
is
one
of
them.
Though
officially
it
is
not
a
Reshammiya
compilation
with
a
few
songs
from
other
films
as
well
but
when
the

reads
'Aksar',
'Tom

'Humko

Second
album
from
Himesh
Reshammiya
[after
Ahista
Ahista]
to
find
a
place
in
the
charts,
it
is
now
looking
down
the
barrel
after
passing
away
of
'Aashique'
wave
The
album
drops
heavily
due
to
release
of
new
albums
and
all
doors
have
now
been
closed
on
its
publicity.
The
album
is
now
breathing
its
last!
