Music Review: Joker

Gaurav's sole composition Kaafirana (Sunidhi Chauhan) is an yet another customary Marathi track on the lines of Chikni Chameli (Agneepath) and Mala Jau De (Ferrari Ki Sawaari). The remaining tracks, composed by G. V. Prakash, are largely lacklustre and fall flat, Yeh Joker (Sonu Niigaam, Shweta Pandit) in particular. Sing Raja's (Daler Mehndi, Sonu Kakkar) Rahman'ish feel (mainly Maiyya Yashoda from Jhootha Hi Sahi) notwithstanding, it is fairly enjoyable. The saving grace of the OST is Jugnu, a beautiful song accompanied by imaginative backgrounds and Udit Narayan, who does a remarkable job of the singing, deserves a special mention. G. V. Prakash makes a tepid debut in Bollywood with Joker.
