Whether
it
is
producer
Sajid
Nadiadwala
or
director
Sajid
Khan,
they
have
always
maintained
that
their
films
are
meant
to
entertain.
One
saw
that
in
their
earlier
association
Heyy
Babyy
which
went
on
to
be
a
big
success.
Its
music
too
caught
on
with
masses
with
Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy
coming
up
with
a
few
chartbuster
tracks,
most
notably
'Ishq
Mohabbat'.
Now
as
the
Heyy
Babyy
team
reloads,
as
publicised
by
the
makers,
one
looks
forward
to
see
what
exactly
does
the
team
have
in
store
for
the
audiences
this
time
around.

MUSIC
The
way
'Oh
Girl
You're
Mine'
begins,
you
know
that
it
is
going
to
be
a
fun
outing
ahead.
Though
the
song
has
primary
lyrics
that
go
as
'Tere
Ishq
Mein...
',
it's
the
parallel
sound
of
'Oh
Girl
You're
Mine'
which
is
prevalent
throughout,
something
which
brings
a
constant
rhythm.
Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy
bring
a
new
singer
on
board,
Tarun
Sagar,
who
comes
along
with
Alyssa
Mendonsa
(along
with
Loy
Mendonsa
as
supporting
vocalists)
for
this
foot
tapping
number
that
brings
together
all
the
lead
protagonists
in
the
film.
Featuring
the
much
hyped
sequence
with
all
three
leading
ladies
in
bikinis,
this
instantly
catchy
track
(which
also
appears
later
in
a
faster
'remix
version')
is
bound
to
be
noticed
in
weeks
to
come.
The
fun
continues,
this
time
with
a
'Masti'
effect
to
it
as
one
is
transported
back
to
the
era
of
70s
and
80s
when
lovers
searched
for
those
private
moments
in
the
confines
of
the
house.
Titled
'Papa
Jag
Jayega',
this
'masala'
number
(which
acts
as
an
instant
coffee)
written
by
Amitabh
Bhattacharya
has
Ritu
Pathak,
Neeraj
Sridhar,
Alyssa
Mendonsa
and
Amitabh
Bhattacharya
having
fun
while
ensuring
that
'Pappa'
doesn't
wake
up
due
to
all
the
noise.
A
situational
track
that
should
work
with
the
visuals,
'Pappa'
also
arrives
with
a
'remix
version'.
There
is
huge
fun
in
store
soon
after
with
the
much
awaited
today's
version
of
'Apni
To
Jaise
Taise'.
Titled
'Aapka
Kya
Hoga
-
Dhanno'
(due
to
the
reference
of
'Dhanno'
right
through
the
five
minute
duration
of
the
song),
it
starts
off
as
an
entirely
different
new
number
before
Mika
strikes
after
an
entire
minute
has
gone
by.
While
Sunidhi
Chauhan
leads
the
show
to
begin
with
(and
gets
the
right
sensuality
in),
Mika
gets
a
distinct
North
Indian
flavour
in
his
rendition
while
ensuring
that
he
doesn't
let
the
original
singer
(Kishore
Kumar)
down.
The
musical
team
here
ensures
that
it
doesn't
just
go
about
remixing
the
song
from
the
past.
Instead,
a
fresh
treatment
is
meted
here
and
though
the
germ
is
kept
intact,
everything
from
lyrics
to
most
of
the
tune
has
been
reworked
upon.
An
outright
chartbuster
track
that
has
Shankar
Mahadevan
and
Sajid
Khan
as
the
supporting
vocalists
with
Arun
Ingle,
Mani
Mahadevan,
Rahul
Chitnis,
Kaustubh
D
and
Nitin
Karandhikar
coming
together
for
a
chorus,
'Aapka
Kya
Hoga
-
Dhanno'
brings
back
the
nostalgia
of
the
80s
and
ensures
that
current
generation
also
gets
exposed
to
this
memorable
track
from
Lawaaris.
The
album
continues
to
get
inspired
from
the
past
with
'I
Don't
Know
What
To
Do'
reminding
listener
of
the
kind
of
songs
that
were
heard
in
Manmohan
Desai
and
Prakash
Mehra
films.
The
common
factor
here?
Shabbir
Kumar,
who
returns
after
a
hiatus
and
sounds
just
the
same
as
he
did
in
the
80s.
A
fun
'suhaagraat'
number
where
the
groom
is
completely
clueless
about
what
to
do
and
the
girl
is
trying
to
teach
him
a
lesson
or
two,
'I
Don't
Know
What
To
Do'
is
funny
and
aimed
at
the
gallery.
Of
course
purists
may
scoff
at
what
the
team
of
Housefull
have
to
offer
with
this
track
but
the
fact
remains
that
Sunidhi
Chauhan
along
with
Shabbir
Kumar
have
all
the
fun
behind
the
mike
and
the
same
effect
is
expected
through
visuals
as
well.
The
way
'He's
Such
A
Loser'
begins,
it
appears
like
a
groovy
Bondisque
track
which
would
be
full
on
attitude.
However,
as
one
starts
concentrating
on
lyrics
by
Amitabh
Bhattacharya,
one
realises
that
the
song
has
been
designed
in
a
comic
vein.
Describing
the
central
protagonist
of
the
film
who
is
referred
to
as
'panauti'
and
'manhoos'
by
one
and
all,
the
song
goes
all
out
in
ensuring
that
there
is
nothing
positive
about
him
which
is
brought
to
fore.
Vivienne
Pocha
gets
a
major
song
for
herself
and
along
with
Amitabh
Bhattacharya,
she
does
well
in
making
best
use
of
the
opportunity.
OVERALL
As
expected,
Housefull
is
a
fun
album
and
never
takes
itself
too
seriously
to
turn
into
a
landmark
affair
that
would
be
remembered
for
years
to
come.
The
songs
are
meant
to
be
entertaining
enough
to
fit
in
well
with
the
film's
narrative
and
not
allow
any
full
moment
whatsoever
to
come
in.
This
is
why
there
is
no
conventional
love
song
or
a
'dard-e-judaai'
affair.
Instead,
majority
of
songs
move
at
a
fast
pace
while
ensuring
that
the
fun
element
is
never
lost.
With
Housefull
all
set
to
be
first
major
film
to
hit
the
screens
after
the
conclusion
of
IPL
and
excellent
promotion
of
both
movie
as
well
as
music
ensuring
very
good
visibility
in
weeks
to
come,
this
Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy
soundtrack
should
manage
to
do
well
commercially.
