It was so senseless that I had even forgotten that it was by our man. I am no rap fan and Apache Indian's No problem failed in converting me to love it. He rather made me hate it even more. Even Anu Malik had used better rap in Bazigar's Ye Kaali Kaali Aankhen. And all those "come on, come on" and "samba samba" were also quite irritating ones. This would be probably the only ARR album in which I didn't find a single song likeable, not even a single minute or second likeable. Indeed, the worst of ARR. > Khel Khiladi Ka Hmm. Super Police. Another dubbing attempt to cash on ARR's popularity. had cheap sounding "chumma de chumma de" that could have done proud only to a Bappi Lahiri (of course, Bappi had good songs also.) pakka dilbarjani was so odd sounding lyrics. Maybe, ARR was getting used to usage of hindi words. But yeah, must mentino "baabu lo chal gaya" which was repeated in Rangeela as a great song but failed to click here. badly done project. > Tu Hi Mera Dil oh this one. Frankly, I liked its "ai chaandni" and "man dole" a lot and "mohabbat mein teri" and "sun le o janam" also a bit. anjali pushpajanali was also soothing but so many words rhyming with anjali were forcibly coined and that stole the beauty of the song. It ended up sounding alien to ears. Dil Ka Raja was again an uncommon song and remained quite low standard. I would say it was a mixed level of efforts on parts of ARR. > > But I would never tag them as unpopular or failed albums.

Oddly, Thiruda-Thiruda got dubbed as Chor-Chor but its movie was never released in Hindi, still the album came out quite good keeping the beauty of Chandralekha absolutely intact. So, I would say, that those dubbed albums which came out badly in hindi do cast a poor shadow on ARR also, because ARR himself has given good dubbed albums and songs also in Hindi. He just didn't put enough efforts in some of those hastily done dubbings. And the reason could be that he was then new and lacked confidence and some producers or music companies took his soft nature for a ride. Now that he has gained confidence and he can call the shots, such butchering of music has stopped for better. > > I have heard all of them and am proud to have them in my colection. -- Rawat > > */V S Rawat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>/* wrote: > > On 6/3/2008 2:26 PM India Time, _Dastageer_ wrote: > > > Hi, > > > > *Yodha - 1992* > > *Gangmaster - 1994* > > *Mona Lisa - 1997* > > The above were dubbed to hindi from other languages to cash on ARR's > popularity, I think first two movies probably didn't get release in > Hindi and though I had seen video's of third one's songs, i still don't > remember having hearing about the movie.
