Typically,
from
a
film
with
an
Army
background,
one
expects
a
theme
soundtrack.
In
addition,
when
the
film
has
a
Court
Martial
forming
a
major
part
of
the
narrative,
one
wonders
if
there
would
be
any
scope
for
music.
However,
Shaurya
is
a
six
track
album
and
has
Adnan
Sami
and
Javed
Akhtar
saab
roped
in
as
composer
and
lyricist
respectively
which
makes
one
look
forward
to
this
album.
There
is
a
surprise
in
store
at
the
very
beginning
of
the
album
as
Adnan
Sami
successfully
creates
an
atmosphere,
which
would
have
befitted
the
stature
of
someone
like
R.D.
Burman
at
the
helm
of
affairs.
Reminding
of
the
kind
of
romantic
numbers
that
Pancham
would
have
loved
to
compose,
'Dheere
Dheere'
is
a
smooth
sailing
track,
which
truly
manages
to
have
a
smooth
sailing
feel
to
it.
Whether
it
is
the
'mukhda'
or
the
'antara'
portions,
both
Adnan
Sami
and
Sunidhi
Chauhan
bring
on
such
beautiful
rendition
that
makes
one
fall
for
the
song
in
the
very
first
listening.
Sung
at
a
low
pitch,
'Dheere
Dheere'
has
it's
composition
in
complete
sync
with
the
lyrics
and
moves
quite
'dheere
dheere'!
And
yes,
thank
goodness
there
are
no
remixes
this
time
around
to
kill
the
impact
of
such
a
beautiful
number.
A
similar
smooth
sailing
feel
is
prevalent
even
in
'Dosti
Kya
Hai'.
Instead
of
falling
in
the
trap
of
'Yeh
Dosti
Hum
Nahi
Chodenge'
kind
of
setting,
'Dosti
Kya
Hai'
is
almost
a
romantic
number
if
one
closely
observes
the
way
it
has
been
composed.
Since
the
film
is
set
in
hills
and
mountains,
the
ice
cold
effect
can
be
witnessed
even
in
the
way
Udit
Narayan
and
Abhijeet
go
about
singing
the
number.
Going
as
per
the
mood
of
the
film,
this
song,
which
is
supposedly
picturized
on
Rahul
Bose
and
Javed
Jaffrey,
should
make
for
a
pleasant
watch.
Special
mention
again
for
the
music
arrangements,
which
manage
to
sustain
the
quality
quotient
of
the
album.
A
complete
turnaround
happens
in
the
proceedings
as
'Jaane
Kyun
Jaaneman'
arrives
next.
A
club
track
with
all
around
Western
mode
and
styling,
this
appears
to
be
an
item
number
in
the
offering.
However,
what
one
gets
to
hear
is
hardly
something
which
one
would
love
to
play
on
in
a
repeat
mode.
More
than
the
sudden
change
in
proceedings
which
surprise,
it
is
the
composition
and
singing
(by
Adnan
Sami
and
Sunidhi
Chauhan)
which
makes
one
look
the
other
way
round.
An
average
track
which
is
all
sound
and
fury
and
nothing
more!
