A romantic track from the upcoming Karan Johar film Dhadak soulfully sung by Ajay Gogavale and Shreya Ghoshal composed by tunesmith duo Ajay-Atul and beautifully written by Amitabh Bhattacharya
Jo meri manzilon ko jaati hai
Tere naam ki koi sadak hai na
Jo mere dil ko dil banaati hai
Tere naam ki koi dhadak hai na!
Music-director brother duo, Ajay-Atul, have been in the news and the music-lover radars for the past many years. For me, the number Abhi mujh mein kahin (Agneepath; 2012) earned them their place in the sun! With scores like Dhadak up their sleeve, they are poised to take a flight and this number will be a big contributing factor methinks. Although not innovative, this one is a soulful melody with some soothing vocals with Ajay Gogavale, the younger of the Ajay-Atul duo and the ‘sweet-as-honey’ Shreya Ghoshal! The track isn’t very breezy and immediately catchy but tends to grow on you. The composer pair use traditional instruments, piano riffs and chorus trying to keep focus on Amitabh Bhattacharya’s words that has some earthy lines like Pyaar se thaamna dor baareek hai, saat janmon ki yeh pehli tareeq hai. A discerning ear may be able to notice a slight similarity of the mukhada at 0:48 – 0:52 with one of the interludes of Ladki badi anjaani hai (Kuch Kuch Hota Hai; 1998; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WlWlGlvN4L4; 1:23 – 1:38s). Experience it, fall in love and let this one grow on you!
