digression... isn't Jaane Tu a copy of the Malayalam Niram (*ing Shalini and Boban)? In Tamil it was remade officially as Piriyada Varam Vendum I think?

Jaane tu ya Jaane na soundtrack reviewed
Aadil Bhoja, HRM Jaane tu ya jaane na
Artist: Various
Music Director: AR Rahman
Lyricist: Various
Label: T-Series
Genre: Bollywood
Review:
Unlike the other debutants this year (Sikander Kher, Mimoh), Aamir Khan's nephew Imran Khan is at least guaranteed a refined soundtrack for his new movie Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na. Why? The music department rests on the broad shoulders of A. R. Rahman, that's why. When one has the combination of Aamir Khan (Producer), Abbas Tyrewala, who is making his directorial debut, and A. R. Rahman, half the battle is already won.
Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na is a coming-of-age romantic film. Considering the theme, the music is appropriate, there are a lot of variations and many new voices also feature. None of the three (Aamir, Abbas, Rahman) are known to follow the beaten track so the experimentation with the music was expected.
The first song ‘Kabhie kabhie aditi zindagi’ grows on you after each listening. For a debutante, a fresh voice was required and Rahman has recruited newcomer Rashid Ali. The song sounds new and refreshing, though not because of the vocalist. It has more to do with the trendy beats and the clean sound of the guitar. The Hindi-English lyrics are not mindless and they manage to conjure up images of a cosmopolitan society.
Another newcomer Runa Rizwi sings the song ‘Jaane tu mera kya hai’, while Rahman favourite Sukhwinder Singh lends his voice too. Slightly sad and melancholic, the singers do ample justice to the songs. It is somewhat on the lines of ‘Nahin saamne’ from Taal. The heavy orchestrations work to its advantage.
The only song that has a re-mixed version on the album is the oddly-worded ‘Pappu Can’t Dance’. It is targeted at club-goers and you won’t hear anyone saying this about Rahman’s work very often, but it is slightly disappointing. Though the lyrics make it sound like a situational song, and if picturized well, it might be able to do well with clubbers.
Another typical college song is ‘Nazren milana’, sung by Naresh Iyer (of ‘Roobaru’ fame) along with hordes of newcomers. A little slow in tempo, this song delivers much more than ‘Pappu can’t dance’. With pleasing guitars and an equally-audible harmonica, it will make you want to tap your feet.
The song ‘Tu bole main bolun’ is sort of a first for Rahman, it may even be a first for Bollywood. With a jazz vibe, this one is heavily laced with trumpet solos and soft beats. Sung by Rahman himself, this one won’t make it big with those who are unwilling to listen to it more than a five to six times. It is really great to hear a different genre of music introduced to mainstream Hindi cinema.
The slowest track in terms of tempo is also the best song on the album – ‘Kahin to hogi’. The song excels mainly because of a good melody and great lyrics. Rashid Ali’s vocals are much better here. This soft number manages to alleviate the album.
Because of his willingness to try new things, Rahman comes out on top yet again. Although, as is the case with almost all his albums, there’s too much to analyze and the songs will probably reveal themselves in their full glory much later.
