Fans of Mani Sharma and Vishal are likely to be entertained. Oherwise, there's nothing much here for the discerning music-lover.

A R Rahman (who else, really?) makes waiting for his music such a worthwhile chore what with one fantastic soundtrack after another. Close on the heels of a deserving Golden Globes wins follows the anticipated score of Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's Dilli 6. Considering its impossible-to-define Chandni Chowk roots, Rahman injects the sounds of this 10-tracked album with an eclectic fusion of various genres. Bottom line: it's a 10 on 10.

Perhaps Yuvan Shankar Raja has spoilt you by his innovative work in his previous albums but in this one, he seems to have careened off after Silambarasan's tastes. He might have ended up satisfying the makers; the duo's track record might help in this album becoming a best-seller. But the collection, barring one or two moments, is nowhere near his best.

Kalaippuli S Thaanu's Sakkarakkati, tuned by A R Rahman falls slightly short of the maestro's classic work -- but it's worth a listen.

If you don't like Akshay Kumar or Bhangra, this isn't your album. Then again, let Pritam's songs sink in -- it's his best work in a while (with no words on 'alternate sources' yet) and some of you might be converts.

Pazhani album is a pot pourri of heavily borrowed tunes and lyrics, some of them from Rahman's compositions.

The soundtrack of Bhool Bhulaiyaa, with a winner title ditty and other silvery moments, is truly enjoyable.

Salim-Sulaiman's music defines the new Bollywood sound.

Not a bad effort by Yuvan Shankar Raja, though nothing extra-ordinary either.

Though Yuvan has steered clear of his favourite cosmetic trappings like rap and remixes, he still managed to bring out a youthful album.

Music director Pritam gives some good numbers and some outdated number in his new album.

This remake of the same name directed by Jeevan of Kaakha Kaakha and Thiruttu Payale fame fails to match up to the musical brilliance of the original.

It is mood music conforming to the sentimental nature of the story that sets the album apart.

Pritam gives good music in this Priyadarshan comedy.

Tina Sugandh becomes the first Indian American to sign major record deal.

Her five trophies tied a record set by Alicia Keys, Norah Jones and Lauryn Hill for the most Grammys won by a female artist.
