Dabangg 2 is probably the most hyped Bollywood movie in recent years thanks to Salman Khan’s brand value and the cult status that Dabangg achieved in 2010. The music of the sequel was released today. Have Sajid and Wajid lived up to the huge hoopla?

Dagabaaz Re...
Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, Shreya Ghoshal, Shadab Faridi


This song is too similar to the ‘Tere Mast’ number from Dabangg; the singers are all the same. Nevertheless, the song is likable thanks to the catchy rhythm that it has and to the use of ‘dhol’ and ‘tabla’. Other traditional instruments like veena and harmonium have also been used to make this a good ‘sufi’ style song.

Pandeyjee Seeti...
Shadab Faridi


This one sounds similar to a band number and this can be expected to get the appreciation of the front benchers. The upbeat tempo is the biggest USP of the number which also has a small reference to the mega hit ‘Munni Badnaam’ number from Dabangg. This number will also feature ‘Munni’ Malaika Arora Khan.

There is a remix version of this song which has a slightly increased tempo and heavy electronic percussions. The production of this remix isn’t up to the mark of other remixes.

Fevicol Se...  
UVIE, Mamta Sharma, Wajid, Keerthi  Sagathia, Shadab Faridi


This is the item song which will feature Kareena Kapoor shaking her legs with Chulbul Pandey. This song has also been targeted at the masses. The rhythm of the song is rustic and infectious while the singing style is sensual and nonchalant. The string sounds in this song make the song livelier.

This number also has a remix that is akin to the ‘you spin my head right round’ number. Electronic percussions are the only difference between this one and the original. Nothing special!

Saanson Ne...
Sonu Nigam, Tulsi Kumar


This one is an earthy melody rendered by the silken Sonu Nigam and Tulsi Kumar. The song has a melodious string and shehnai section but the ‘dhol’ percussions in the song give it a really dated feel.

Dabangg Reloaded...
Shadab Faridi


This is a heroic number which uses the popular ‘Udd Udd Dabangg’ refrain. The tune just seems to be an extension of that song. The impact created by that song is hard to match as this one falls flat almost. The trumpets try to infuse a massy ring to the song.

Remixes for almost every song are becoming sort of an indulgence. Again, just the beats differentiate the remix of this song and the original. The remix fails to deliver anything out of the ordinary.

Verdict: The songs might turn out to be popular among the mainstream mass audience thanks to the brand value that Salman and Dabangg possess. But, the soundtrack doesn’t have anything different or interesting going for it. A flat attempt from Sajid - Wajid
