Jalsa Music Review

Jalsa Music Review

It is the much awaited audio release for his fans. Three of the film’s songs were released on the Net nearly a week before the audio launch. But that did not whet the audience’s excitement. Instead, it made them more desperate to listen to the entire album consisting nine songs. Geeta Arts specially chose Devisri Prasad to come up with some really sensational music and as always, Devisri does not disappoint. He has what Pawan Kalyan’s fans would love to hear in his film. Read on…

Jalsa

Singers: Baba Sehgal, Rita
Lyricist: Sirivennela

He is the Jackie Chan… he is the king of Andhra… sings Baba Sehgal in this opening track of the album. Baba had sung a song for megastar Chiranjeevi 12 years back for Rickshaavaadu. Then, he crooned Roop tera mastana for his item number. This time around, it is a rap mix about the leading man. Apparently, the rap bits were written by Baba himself and so they fit in perfectly with the song. It is an ideal number to get a feel of what can be expected from the album. Fast and peppy, it is surely going to top the charts for a very, very long time.

My Heart is Beating

Singers: Kay Kay
Lyricist: Sirivennela

This is another experimental number that is highly Westernised. Like quite a few songs in Pawan Kalyan’s films, it is sprinkled with English and Telugu lyrics. Kay Kay gives the playback and he is simply superb as his Telugu diction is perfect, not to forget his English pronunciation. A romantic number, it stands out by not being melodious. Devisri Prasad comes up with something that will get the younger audience grooving.

You & I

Singers: Devi Sri Prasad
Lyricist: Sirivennela

This one has Hindi and English lyrics for a change. Devisri Prasad sings Let’s do Balle Balle for another item number which will be ideal for Saturday night dancing at clubs. The lyrics are thought-provoking, but Devisri gives them a wonderful twist by setting them to funky beats. Hakuna Matata (Don’t worry, be happy)!!

Chalo chalo re

Singers: Ranjith
Lyricist: Sirivennela

Devisri uses Ranjith for this number. A solo number, this one’s a super fast song despite the lyrics.

Jennifer Lopez

Singers: Benny, Priya
Lyricist: Rama Jogaiah Sastry

A perfect item song, this one has Benny and Priya giving the playback. The lyricists move past Ramyakrishna and Rambha and go international with this one. So we have the girl being compared to Jennifer Lopez, Beyonce and Shakira in keeping with the times. Another song that will take you to the dance floor within seconds, it is bound to bounce to the top of the charts within no time.

Gallo thelinattunde

Singers: Tippu, Gopika Poornima
Lyricist: Bhaskar Bhatla

Tippu, who is fast becoming the hot choice for fast songs, sings this one along with Gopika Poornima. This is another number that is bound to go really with both the urban and rustic masses. Just don’t forget to put on your dancing shoes on before listening to this one!

Chalo chalo re (Hindi)

Singers: Devi Sri Prasad
Lyricist: Raquib Alam

It is essentially a Hindi version of the earlier song. Raquib Alam pens the lyrics for this one though.

My Heart is Beating (Remix)

Singers: Kay Kay
Lyricist: Sirivennela

This is a much softer version of the earlier jazzy version, sung again by Kay Kay. It is wonderful to hear him singing both the versions.

Jalsa (The Devi Mix)

Singers: Baba Sehgal, Devi Sri Prasad
Lyricist: Bhaskar Bhatla

It is a club mix of the title track! Devisri Prasad and Baba Sehgal sing this DJ mix in perfect tandem.

It is an album that you must add to your basket as it is peppy and just perfect to get you into the boogie woogie mode. Yes, Devisri Prasad, does it again!!
