Masti.
Masala.
And
some
'dhamaal'.
That's
exactly
what
one
expects
from
the
music
of
All
The
Best.
Movies
and
music
coming
from
the
house
of
Rohit
Shetty
have
a
certain
template
feel
to
them.
His
films
like
Golmaal,
Golmaal
Returns
and
Sunday
have
been
youthful
entertainers
with
good
music.
This
is
what
one
looks
forward
to
from
All
The
Best
as
well
which,
as
the
title
itself
suggests,
is
a
movie
about
celebration
and
letting
your
hair
down.
With
composer
Pritam
and
lyricist
Kumaar
at
the
helm
of
affairs,
you
know
exactly
what
you
are
getting
into.
MUSIC
Drum
beats
mark
the
beginning
of
'Dil
Kare'
that
have
the
cry
of
All
The
Best
creating
the
much
required
rhythm
all
throughout
the
song's
duration.
A
number
that
is
set
exactly
in
the
manner
of
'Socha
Hai'
[Rock
On],
whether
lyrically,
musically
or
thematically,
'Dil
Kare'
is
a
heavy
duty
rock
track
that
is
mounted
on
a
really
lavish
scale.
Suraj
Jagan
is
a
good
choice
for
a
number
like
this
though
one
feels
that
K.K.
at
the
helm
of
affairs
would
have
further
added
zing
to
'Dil
Kare'.
Roopam
Islam
is
there
as
a
backup
vocalist
in
the
opening
number
of
this
album
that
gets
into
top
gear
from
the
very
onset
and
also
gives
it
a
euphoric
ending
with
a
high
voltage
'remix
version'.
Expect
the
track
to
make
it
to
the
DJ's
list
in
a
matter
of
few
days
from
now.
Well,
wait
for
K.K.
is
over
with
'Haan
Main
Jitni
Martaba'
which
does
have
a
very
strong
rock
beginning
to
it,
especially
with
the
heavy
bass
doing
the
trick.
However,
the
moment
K.K.
comes
behind
the
mike,
the
scene
changes
for
better.
'...
Martaba'
turns
out
to
be
a
love
song
set
in
a
rock
genre
that
has
a
sound
good
enough
to
make
you
root
for
it
after
the
first
listening
itself.
With
newcomer
Yashita
being
the
female
vocalist
bringing
the
perfect
sound
for
a
rock
rendition,
'...
Martaba'
turns
out
to
be
one
of
the
best
songs
to
have
come
out
this
year.
Also,
it
boasts
of
the
kind
of
lyrics
that
Kumaar
has
excelled
in
over
the
last
few
years
that
he
has
been
active.
He
makes
best
use
of
the
platform
made
available
to
him
and
spins
a
romantic
tale
that
is
given
a
'rock
solid'
(pun
intended)
contemporary
treatment
by
Pritam.
A
winner
which
also
makes
an
impression
in
the
'remix
version'.
One
of
the
major
reasons
for
the
promos
of
All
The
Best
to
have
made
the
kind
of
strong
impression
is
the
music
that
plays
along
with
them.
The
beats
of
title
song
'All
The
Best'
are
the
ones
that
catch
your
attention
in
the
promos
and
on
listening
to
it's
full
length
version,
you
know
that
the
funda
of
Rohit
Shetty,
Pritam
and
Kumaar
was
clear
i.e.
to
create
an
instant
impression
amongst
the
youth
by
bringing
in
a
funky
sound
aided
by
some
full-on
orchestra.
Rana,
now
turning
out
to
be
a
regular
with
Pritam,
Soham
(who
recently
created
his
own
What's
Your
Raashee)
and
Antara
come
together
for
'All
The
Best'
that
goes
perfectly
well
with
the
celebration
theme
of
the
film
and
should
again
boast
of
some
wide
spread
choreography
and
eye
catchy
picturisation.
Mood
of
the
album
shifts
again
with
Clinton
Cerejo
getting
a
rock
solo
for
him
in
the
form
of
'Kyon'.
This
time
around
the
proceedings
are
really
soft
and
slow
with
minimal
musical
instruments
aiding
Clinton's
rendition.
Even
though
the
song
has
a
sad
setting
to
it
which
is
about
changing
times
and
drifting
friends,
'Kyon'
is
yet
another
very
good
number
after
'....
Martaba'.
Tailor-made
for
youth
and
boasting
of
the
kind
of
sound
that
worked
so
very
well
for
the
music
of
Life
In
A...Metro,
'Kyon'
is
the
kind
of
number
that
film
maker
of
any
biggie
would
be
glad
to
place
in
his
product.
Over
the
years,
Neeraj
Sridhar
has
been
heard
singing
in
a
particular
style
and
sound
for
many
a
Pritam
hits.
In
case
of
'You
Are
My
Love',
he
does
bring
in
a
definite
change
in
both
the
departments.
Also
Pritam
incorporates
a
certain
child
like
innocence
in
the
making
of
this
song
which
is
high
on
orchestra,
is
quite
urban
and
contemporary
and
yet
boasts
of
simplicity.
An
ensemble
piece
that
also
sees
the
coming
together
of
Kunal
Ganjawala,
Rajesh,
Alisha
Chinoy
and
Megha,
'You
Are
My
Love'
is
a
celebration
track
about
the
coming
together
of
friends
in
happy
times.
OVERALL
One
expected
a
decent
time
pass
score
for
All
The
Best
which
would
make
an
instant
impression
and
ensure
that
audiences
are
entertained
as
they
play
on
screen.
For
this
purpose,
Pritam
does
compose
songs
like
'Dil
Kare',
'All
The
Best'
and
'You
Are
My
Love'.
However,
there
is
a
pleasant
surprise
in
store
with
'...
Martaba'
and
'Kyon'
turning
out
to
be
two
of
the
purest
compositions
by
Pritam
and
Kumaar
that
bring
in
further
quality
to
this
album.
