Unlike Jab We Met, you may not like the songs instantly but listen to them a few times and you will be hooked.

Twist is something we are all addicted to by now. The sapera been tune fits in perfectly. Neeraj Shridhar’s vocal energy is unmatched. The rap vocals are reminiscent of Apache Indian. Pritam is brilliant with hip hop dance numbers and this one is no exception. It will set the dance floor on fire; even make you want to dance in your seat! The lyrics are very Punjabi like rounak-shounak, wicked-shicked, aankh-vaank, daaru-shaaru, etc. the step is easy too and Saif looks super cute in the video. Do the Twist! It’s sure to be a rage at discos.

Chor Bazari has a nice guitar tune. It’s a little like the relatively unknown but lovely Chori Chori Ankhiyaan from Race, also because Sunidhi Chauhan and Neeraj Shridhar are the singers. It’s a chilled out number. You imagine people having a beach or poolside party replete with thatched roofs, beer and summery dresses when you listen to the song.

Main Kya Hoon has KK adding his magical touch to it. The beats are almost electronic, so the song seems out of place on the album and it’s like something you have heard before.

Aahun Aahun is another instant favourite with its guitar prelude (makes it a great ring tone). Love the Punjabi and tu aaja dil janiya bit (what you hear in the promo) throughout the song. It’s a great club track too. It’s a fast track with hip hop and Punjabi flavours. Pritam has done a superb job with this super energetic number you want to listen over and over again. Neeraj Shridhar and the Punjabi singer are excellent.

Aaj Din Chadeya, sung by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan is soothing after the upbeat and exhausting Aahun Aahun. It’s a sweet and pleasant tune that will grow on you. I guess it is part of the ‘Pyaar 1965’ track in the film. It conjures pictures of a turbaned Saif admiring Harleen in the mustard fields of Punjab.

Thoda Thoda Pyaar has the reliable Sunidhi Chauhan on the vocals. It has a nineties feel to it, something Madhuri Dixit would dance to. A typical shaadi ka gaana that’s not an assault to your ears.

Ye Doorian has a serene start with Mohit Chauhan’s calming vocals. The song’s likeable but it isn’t magical like Jab We Met’s Tum Se Hi which practically launched Mohit Chauhan. It’s about lovers missing each other; wanting to erase the distance between them.

The remixes of Aahun Aahun, Twist and Chor Bazari are nice. They are simple, nothing over-elaborate.
