Album Review
Not much to sing about
By Tanuka Chakraverty

J P Dutta's 'Refugee' will have to go through many a litmus test before it finally goes down the annals of the Indian films industry history.

The reason is more than obvious. 'Refugee' showcases the star of the Millenium, Amitabh Bachchan's son Abhishek Bachchan for the first time alongwith Karishma Kapoor's sibling and Babita and Randhir Kapoor's younger daughter, Kareena.

While one has to wait for the film's release to wear the critique's glasses, the music is already in the market doing lukewarm rounds. Probably it’s the initial phase, and sale might pick up later.

''People are not rushing to us for 'Refugee'. The sale of the film's music is not being extraordinary. It may pick up slowly'' says a leading music shop owner in New Delhi.

'Refugee's music scorer may be (in) famous for copying, but this time, Anu Malik has tried to be original. The music is okay. More than the music, it’s the lyrics which touch chords.

Javed Akhtar's penchant for the usual, yet strongly subtle words are best reflected in 'Panchhi, nadiyaan, pawan ke jhokein' rendered by Sonu Nigam and Alka Yagnik and 'Rat ki hatheli par' by Udit Narayan.

'Refugee' could prove to be Sonu Nigam's well-deserved break in films as a playback singer. His renditions speak of his immense talent, if not anything else. Out of the six songs in the film, Sonu has rendered four and the other have been shared by Shankar Mahadevan, Sukhwinder Singh and Udit Narayan. Alka Yagnik as the female playback has done justice to her numbers.

The overall soundtrack of 'Refugee' is hearable but ordinary. Abhishek Bachchan's debut film should have had music for the connoisseur.
