I can't believe all the bad comments reviewers and moviegoers are expressing about that song. Ok, it's not the best composition in the world, but the tune and rhythm is catchy and playful, rustic, folk. It's very situational. This is what the PB reviewer has to say:
"Rehman is OK, although Rehman displays a flair for butchering Urdu words when he sings. The one number which was sheer torture was "Ek lo, ek muft"." (Give Rahman a break dude for his singing.....for a Tamilian who never learned Urdu formally, I'd say Rahman's pronounciations are guite admirable.....and it's a fact that his so called "butchering" has never had an effect on how popular his songs have become or how well they are liked.....cases in point..Yeh Jo Desh.....Dil Se Re......) Anyway, back to my original point. I think Rahman had high hopes for this song to become popular once the film released, but I think the opposite has happened. People are simply hating it, and I'm thinking it's because of the placement of the song in the narrative and how it was picturized more than the actual composition itself. Many thought the song was totally out of synch.
