Musical comedies are a genre that has been ruled by Govinda. After that, it has been Akshay Kumar, who has been hitting the genre constantly with movies like Bhool Bhulaiyaa, Desi Boyz, Heyy Baby, Welcome, Housefull, and more! The most recent film to hitch this list clearly is Welcome To The Jungle. There may be an inherent charm and effortlessness about Akshay Kumar’s musical comedies, which gets reflected within the songs as well! Remember, Insha Allah, from Welcome? Or Bala from Housefull? Even the hooks stick with you!
Musical comedies generally are a tricky nut to crack! You wish high-octane club bangers blended with situational madness, and when it’s a screen stuffed with 30+ actors, this task gets herculean! But music composer Anand Raj Anand, together with lyricists Farhad Shamji and Meggha Bali, has understood the task for Ahmed Khan’s film pretty much!
Is Welcome To The Jungle the most effective album of the 12 months? No? Will you remember these songs for many years? Under no circumstances? But will they rule your list for the following party? Definitely yes! And that’s what one needs at times!
A soundtrack that delivers the utmost amount of trippy energy possible. It’s mad, chaotic, and loud, and the moment Akshay Kumar and Disha Patani showcase their moves and inform you “Aaja Mere Sang Nach Le Zara Zara,” you’ll leave your logic and join the madness!
Till now, the music album has 5 songs, and all of them have a certain type of infectious energy. Allow us to dissect them intimately!
- Song: O Mere Balam
- Lyrics: Farhad Shamji
- Singers: KavyaKriti, Saket Bairoliya
- Choreographer: Adil Shaikh
Anand Raaj Anand brings back that classic, infectious early-2000s Bollywood rhythm that immediately gets your foot tapping. KavyaKriti and Saket Bairoliya deliver an incredibly breezy performance, perfectly complementing Farhad Shamji’s playful, cheeky lyrics. Adil Shaikh’s choreography is slick and colourful.
- Tera Paisa Mera Paisa
- Song Composer: Vikram Montrose
- Singers: Akshay Kumar, Farhad Bhiwandiwala, Rubai, Vikram Montrose
- Lyricist: Meggha Bali
- Choreographer: Prince Gupta
That is where the true madness begins. Vikram Montrose crafts a heavy, hip-hop track that revolves entirely around greed within the funniest way possible! Call it a parallel modern-day version of Sabse Bada Rupaiya! You’ll enjoy it to the core. Meggha Bali’s lyrics are wacky, but absolutely the showstopper here is hearing Akshay Kumar return to his rap roots alongside Farhad Bhiwandiwala. Choreographed by Prince Gupta, this song looks suave and dapper!
- Deewane Hain
- Music Composer & Lyricist: Anand Raaj Anand
- Singers: Amruta Fadnavis, Anand Raaj Anand
- Choreographers: Prince Gupta & Rahul Shetty
An enormous ensemble dance number designed purely for the one screens! The vocals by Amruta Fadnavis add an unexpected, sharp texture to the track. Prince Gupta and Rahul Shetty create a festival of sorts with their moves. It’s chaotic, but in probably the most entertaining Bollywood way possible.
- Ucha Lamba Kad Endlessly
- Original Composer & Lyricist: Anand Raaj Anand
- Song Re-created by: Vikram Montrose
- Singers: Anand Raaj Anand, Rubai (Original: Anand Raaj Anand, Kalpana Patowary)
- Latest Lyricist: Meggha Bali
- Choreographer: Adil Shaikh
You just cannot have a Welcome sequel without its party anthems. Vikram Montrose takes the challenge to recreate this beauty! Thankfully, as a substitute of butchering it he retains the Punjabi core while adding fresh modern beats. A highly energetic rap verse is unquestionably a high!
- Welcome To The Jungle Title Track
- Original Composition: Sajid Wajid (Original Lyrics: Shabbir Ahmed)
- Song Re-Creation: Vikram Montrose
- Singers: Shaan, Priya Patidar & Vikram Montrose (Original: Shaan, Soumya Rao, Wajid)
- Latest Lyrics: Meggha Bali
Re-creating Sajid-Wajid’s iconic Welcome track is a challenge, and Vikram Montrose matches the wildness of the jungle safari and the madness of the forged here! Shaan returns to deliver that nostalgia-heavy, booming vocal performance that immediately connects you to the franchise’s roots. The madness works!
The music of Welcome To The Jungle just isn’t a poet’s dream nor a celebration animal’s rescue! But it surely still works with its madness, and it is unquestionably going to be in your playlist for not less than the following 10 – 12 parties and drives!
