No Entry has fun music

Three guys. Three wives. One sexy 'bone of contention'. Sounds a lot like 2004's runaway hit Masti, doesn't it?

 

Brace yourself for another one of those the-grass-is-always-greener-on-other-side brands of comedy this July.

 

Directed by Anees Bazmee (Pyaar To Hona Hi Tha, Deewangee), No Entry boasts of a star cast that features Anil Kapoor, Salman Khan, Fardeen Khan, Bipasha Basu, Esha Deol, Lara Dutta and Celina Jaitley.

The presence of so many stars could be good enough reason for people to rush to the theatres for a first-day-first-show.

 

Anu Malik's compositions aren't far behind either. Here's a quick look at the eight-tracked album:

 

If you can digest silly lyrics with a pinch of salt, Ishq ki galli mein no entry

is as catchy as it gets. Sonu Nigam and Alisha Chinai seem to be having as much fun crooning this dance track as much as AK and Sallu appear to be while serenading the sexy Bipasha.

 

Just love me tries to recreate the magic of the swinging 1960s music with its breezy rhythm. Though high on style, Just love me isn't meaty enough to cash in. 

 

KK drones on an accented note in the light-hearted Ishq mein. A fairly likable number, this one has hints of the peppy Maine jisko chaha of Fida.

 

Alisha sings, seduces and oozes oomph in her characteristic husky voice in Why why/ Dil chura ke. Nice? Yup! Hot? Nope! This one lacks the fizz and drama of her livewire rendition of Kajrare Kajrare (Bunty Aur Babli).

 

More dumb lyrics are thrown your way in the racy Kalyug ki laila. Sure, it sounds fancy and it's hard not to tap your foot to its beat. But the moment you pay attention to the words, they irk. Try this: Kalyug ki Laila hain hum. Kyun humko aaye sharam. Aapke liye ishq hamara garma garam. When will Bollywood understand that modernism doesn't imply fall from grace?   

 

The melodious voices of Udit Narayan and Kumar Sanu are overshadowed by the crowded music arrangement of Kahan ho tum.

 

Dil paagal hai has a zingy score. Nothing extraordinary but not mundane either.

 

Alisha and Sunidhi Chauhan try to outdo each other in the hotness department in Mera jaisa koi nahin. The two ladies bring the house down and get the temperature soaring in this pulsating ditty.

 

The music of No Entry is aimed at an easy audience, which doesn't demand much except some fun tunes to boogie on. And this soundtrack is fun.
