The Shahrukh Khan and Jaideep Sahni magic has worked big time with both
their films, Chak de India and Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, casting their spell on
the audience. On both the occasions, the songs wrote by Jaideep and
picturised on Shahrukh Khan went on to become an anthem for the music
lovers. Be it the title track of Chak de India or the most recent
phenomenon, "Haule Haule", the songs have gripped the nation and have
contributed in no uncertain terms to the super success of the films.

Much in a similar manner, Shahrukh Khan's colleague, the perfectionist Aamir
Khan shares a fruitful relationship with lyricist Prasoon Joshi. Their
association has yielded bountiful results in the form of memorable songs of
Fanaa, Rang De Basanti and Taare Zameen Par. Music buffs still love "Chand
Sifarish", the title track of Rang De Basanti and of course, the award
winning "Maa".

However, the songs and the lyrics of Ghajini (barring "Guzarish") have not
received universal acclaim, as was the norm for an Aamir Khan, A R Rahman
and Prasoon Joshi combo. This was once again a much similar reaction to SRK
and Jiadeep's RNDBJ album received when it released. But SRK and Jaideep
have proved the skeptics wrong and the response to all the songs in the
theatres is a live proof of the fact that it's not the critics but the
paying audience who decides.
So, let's wait and watch whether the Aamir-Prasoon jodi will be able to
emulate the success of the SRK-Jaideep jodi. And for that we do not have to
wait long as Ghajini has already arrived in the theatres to a super
response.
