When you think of Bollywood music we are sure that the fabulous Vishal-Shekhar will be one of the names that comes immediately to your mind. Made up of Vishal Dadlani and Shekhar Ravjiani, they have been the maestros behind some of the biggest hits and best songs to come out of Indian movie music! With each new track for each new film, the duo really works hard to make fresh sounds, novel grooves and to give an innovative flavor to Indian cinema music! On many of the tracks we hear their vocals as well. If you have read any of my music reviews, you know that I always think Vishal’s vocals rock and that Shekhar is one of my favorite singers! I loved his smooth vocals on the acoustic ‘Bin Tere Reprise’ from I Hate Love Storys and his newest ‘Khudayaa’ from Shanghai also was added to my all time favorite song list.

2011 was a great year for music in the Hindi film industry with an eclectic mix of styles, moods, vibes, beats, fresh new sounds and cool grooves. The songs ranged from romantic ballads, to full on rock, to the playful, the funny, the traditional, the internationally flavored ones and everything in-between and even some with the track tinged with a little bit of each. So many of the soundtracks this year were so good that it was not just one song that was killer good, it was most of them. Because so many albums this year were such a good collection of brilliant songs, think Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, Delhi Belly, Rockstar and more, we had a tough time limiting ourselves to 25 Best Songs of the year, so we thought why try and decided to go with 50!

Cast of Aarakshan with director Prakash Jha
Filmmaker Prakash Jha believes that each of the songs from his upcoming film is unique and will appeal to cinema goers
Director Prakash Jha is pretty pleased with the music score for his upcoming social issue centric film Aarakshan. The album packs in four tunes ? Mauka, Seedhe Point Pe, Saans Albeli and Roshanee along with Gandhiji?s favorite devotional hymn Vaishnav Janto. The record will be made available by Sony Music.
This is the second time that the 59 year old Jha has used a classic tune in his film. He used the country?s national song Vande Matram in his 2010 political drama Raajneeti (2010). This time the multi- national award winner has picked the Gujrathi tune, tweeting,? We?ve taken the great Indian melody ?Vaisho jan to taine kahiye?, which goes well with the essence of @Sr Bachchan (Prabhakar Anand?s) character.

At BollySpice.com we have loved the songs that she sings, and fans and critics everywhere love her fabulous voice. Our reviewer raved about Mahalakshmi Iyer's vocal on 'Bol Na Halke Halke' from Jhoom Barabar Jhoom: "Mahalaxkshmi's rendition magically sways with the melodious music. The track stands as a superb example of what a romantic song should offer". We also praised her newest track from I Hate Luv Storys (Ihls), 'Sadka Kiya': "Mahalakshmi Iyer gives gorgeous vocals that are full of depth and feeling." This is the second time I have interviewed Mahalakshmi, (see the first one here) and it was a another wonderful conversation - she is truly one of my favorite people to interview and to listen to. This time she talks about 'Sadka Kiya', the tour with Shankar Ehsaan and Loy, and everything gaane!

I Hate Luv StorysMusic: Vishal-ShekharLyrics: Anvita Dutt, Kumaar, Vishal Dadlani Two tracks immediately stand out. Sadka, sung by Suraj Jagan, of Give me some sunshine (3 Idiots) fame, and Mahalaxmi Iyer, is a slow, trippy, alternative rock-ish love ballad. Jagan owns the song from the word go. Shekhar Ravjiani’s reprise of Bin tere is an elegantly composed unplugged number. It has Ravjiani’s passionate vocals over some magical guitar-playing. Shreya Ghoshal’s Bahara may have given you diabetes, but the song works well because the composers offset Ghoshal’s saccharine-sweetness with Sona Mohapatra’s rustic, earthy vocals (who deserved more ...
