Lucky Boy! Raja Hasan’s song from Bachna Ae Haseeno

Posted in Vishal-Shekhar, Bollywood Music, Raja Hasan on July 7th, 2008

While the status of the website still remains undecided for now, I have decided to post this as this is a bit of a BIG news.

Raja Hasan finally made his way to the big stage with his first release for the Yash Raj Banner. YRF have the habit of quietly releasing the music without any fanfare – and thus this news got missed out, when his song for Bachna Ae Haseeno got released.

Well, Raja Hasan sings a few “link lines” in a catchy song composed by Vishal-Shekhar called Lucky Boy. His co-singers are Sunidhi Chauhan (who does the main vocals) and Hard Kaur.

As mentioned earlier, the song isn’t a pure duet (or truet or whatever they call it), but Raja does get to sing a few catchy lines – though it isn’t the typical Raja voice we are used to hear.

Bachna Ae Haseeno is expected to reach the theatres on 15th August.

The one interesting bit in the album is the original voice of Kishore Kumar used in the title track. To share credits with a legend like Kishore Kumar on the same album cover is something Raja or we couldn’t have dreamt! Really a lucky boy!

As always, please buy the original CDs which should be available at a store close to you.

Check out the song:

  16. Manish, on July 7th, 2008 at 5:20 pm Said:

    Priya, the song if you hear carefully has a few bits of Raja’s voice. Or even more. It’s from a telegu to hindi dubbed movie called the (The Real) Don No.1 released back in March. I checked out the credits from the movie to see if it was really Raja’s voice - and yes, his name was mentioned.

  23. Shobha, on July 7th, 2008 at 8:46 pm Said:

    Raja was so so awesome in Lagan Lagi - I loved it. I’m waiting to see it again tonight - it’s going to be telecast again tonight… yeah. What was shown to us by ZeeTV was the bit where Raja praised and thanked the musicians and I loved to see that. Reminded me of the good old days when he used to always remember to mention the 2 background gurus - not only the 4 we saw on TV. Lagan Lagi was amazing - all Raja - enjoying the singing, dancing, so, so cool

  24. Shobha, on July 8th, 2008 at 12:48 am Said:

    I could not figure out the part where Raja sings in this song.. did anyone else figure out??? Can someone point out where exactly… Like the song… just want to know where has Raja’s voice been used.

  25. Shobha, on July 8th, 2008 at 1:15 am Said:

    Thank you very much for posting the Behndi Bazar song - Raja’s voice is distinctive here - he has arrived. So very happy for him.

  26. lavanya, on July 8th, 2008 at 2:27 am Said:

    @ Shobha,

    Raja Hasan`s line is “Nainpari tu dekh ,beh ja beh ja ,karde ren dopahari dil,le ja le ja ,karde nainpari tu dekh.” the very first line in the song.

  27. Yasmin, on July 8th, 2008 at 7:18 am Said:

    Great news Manish. Thank you!

    Raja, jo tumne doosree post pe likha tha ke is dawraan tumhara kuch kharaab waqt chal reha hai to fikr na karo, hum sub log Allah Paak se dua maang rahe hain kee tumharee sub mushkilaatain wo aasaan kare. Aameen.

    Padma, I thoroughly enjoyed reading your description of Raja’s lagan lagi performance on July 5th. Keep it up!

    Found this just now……….

    bachna ae haseeno

    By Riya V. Anandwala
    Radioandmusic.com
    (Published on 8 July 2008)

    Music: Vishal - Shekhar

    Label: Yash Raj

    Our Rating: 3 out of 5

    Music composer duo Vishal-Shekhar have become synonymous with youthful, new flavoured club music. But they deliver more than they seem to promise. With Yash Raj’s new offering, the much hyped Ranbir-Deepika-Bipasha starrer Bachna Ae Haseeno, they explore more styles of sounds and exhibit a uniquely packaged music album. The various permutations and combinations of singers certainly lifts the album from the realm of the ordinary.

    ‘Khuda Jaane’ is a hardcore romantic song with new hearthrobs, Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone. This song will grow on Vishal-Shekhar music lovers. Shilpa Rao’s seductive and sensuous voice complements KK’s powerful vocals on every note. Lyrics penned by Anvita Dutt Guptan seem okay, but they sound exceptional in the singers’ voices. The remix of this track is fairly good, the reason being the original is a class apart itself.

    Lucky Boy is a typical Vishal-Shekhar track. Crooned by Sunidhi Chauhan, Lucky Boy’s lyrics are well-tweaked in her potent voice. The chorus of ‘Lucky boy’ done by new find Raja Hassan, sounds particularly captivating. Hard Kaur’s thanda presence in the song puts one off, though.

    And then you have Lucky Ali singing along with Shreya Ghoshal. Aahista aahista is in many ways like Yuva’s Khuda Hafiz, probably due to the striking resemblance between Ali and A R Rahman’s voice. However, no one can deny that the first-rate music stands out and leaves the listener wanting for more.

    For music lovers who have not heard enough of Shekhar Ravijani, Jogi Mahi is the song! His voice is exploited to the hilt in this particular track and gels well with Sukhwinder’s distinctive voice. Newbie Himani Kapoor lives upto one’s expectations too. She does a fine job of the Punjabi vocals. The lyrics by Guptan are a good blend of Hindi and Punjabi and fit well into the music. The shaadi music doesn’t fall in the same age ol’ slot, rather offers much more!

    ‘Small town girl’ will give a ‘Dil dance maare’ feeling. It’s Shankar Mahadevan’s essense which makes the song rich and colourful. Guptan’s lyrics again have a great impact on the composition. Vishal-Shekhar have put the song together in a unique fashion and this one is sure to be a hit!

    Bachna ae haseeno’s title track, the original Rishi Kapoor song sung by ever melodious legendary Kishore Kumar has been boxed well. Along with Kishore da’s original magical voice, Sumit Kumar’s vocals add to the magic. Vishal Dadlani’s rap in English lyrics too add flavour to the track.

    Minus remixed versions of every track in the album, Bachna ae haseeno has something unique to offer. This one is sure to be a hit amongst the young buds. Vishal-Shekhar continue their reign on young minds
