Murder 2


Murder 2 - Music Review

Murder 27 years down the lane, ‘Bhege Hoth Tere’ still rules the chartbuster and is one of the most foot-tapping numbers of the present day. Music-goers till date croon the song with same passion and is as refreshing as before. So when the sequel to this hit movie hit the market, expectation obviously touches sky.  The Bhatt camp, Mohit Suri and Emraan Hashmi, the combination of this trio never misses to give a hit and electrifying album.
‘Murder 2’ has replaced Mallika Sherawat with Jacqueline Fernandez and the makers promise the sequel to be more erotic and intense thriller compared to the prequel. It brings together composer Harshit Saxena, Sangeet & Siddharth Haldipur, Mithoon to deliver another memorable offering.  As far as music is concern, Bhatt camp always dominates the musical world. Their film hardly misses to deliver a hit chartbuster. The Bhatt camp always give opportunity the new singing sensation from the reality TV shows. In 2008, they offered Toshi to sing ‘Maahi’ from ‘Raaz-The Mystery Continues’ and it rocked. Now they are again giving the huge responsibility of framing the song ‘Haal-E-Dil’ to another TV reality singing talent Harshit Saxena to sing and compose the song.  Let’s see how he has done and what is stored in ‘murder 2’.
The album kick-starts with ‘Haal-E-Dil’ crooned by Harshit Saxena. He has been able to do justice to the film. It is a typical Emraan Hasmi type of song blend of romance and thrill. It is high on instrument and sounds like a rock ballad. Well, he has done a good job and has been able to build up the expectation.
 The second song goes as ‘Aa Zara’ which is a club number. Picturized on Jacqueline Fernandez, the song is high on beats and Sunidhi Chauhan’s scintillating voice could not done wonder this time. Composed by the duo of Sangeet and Siddharth Haldipur and lyrics written by Kumaar, the song is a let down. It lacks the disco factor. The plus point of this track is that it has the sensuous feeling.
The next track is ‘Aye Khuda’ which sounds very ordinary. The track is purely situational. It is not the type of song that you would like to hum or listen again and again. it is a just passable. While the remix version sounds little better. Kshitij Tarey, Saim, Mithoon could not utilize the opportunity.  The lyrics is catchy but the song is too slow.
The fourth track is ‘Phir Mohabbat’ sung by Mohd Irfan, Arijit, Saim. This time Mithoon has again taken the task of composing the song. It is a romantic number where the male protagonist speaks bout his heart. lyrics by Sayeed Quadri has done the maximum job. Very soulful and touchy wording and beautifully sung by the singers.
The fifth offering of the album is ‘Tujhko Bhulana’ is just awful. Music by Sangeet Haldipur, Roshni Baptist is a total let down. The song is not up to the standard of film like ‘Murder’. Sayeed Qadri’s lyrics was also very depressing. Hope, if not the song the picturization might feel the space.
Overall, the music of ‘Murder 2’ is average. If one compares it with the prequel then it would be highly disappointing. It stands nowhere to the original ‘Murder’ track. While ‘Haal-E-Dil’ and ‘’Phir Mohabbat’ will contribute to the film’s success.
