Pawan Kalyan’s most anticipated music album, Desh Bachao, promoted as a protest album is finally out. While many expected that the music album would offer new songs that would inspire, motivate youth in fighting for their rights including Special Status to AP, what the songs have actually offered is a rehash of Pawan’s classic songs.
Truth be told, even that rehash & remix of Pawan’s old songs were not done well. As the music – err…it’s noise – dominates the song, lyrics go unnoticed leaving fans, music lovers in a tizzy.
Be it “Travelling Soldier” (done in Bhangra Laddoo Mix) or Ye Mera Jaha ( EDM Mix) or Naaraju Gakura Remix, the album has nothing substantial. Though it’s clarified that Desh Bachao album is not for Special Status and it’s about “Opportunistic, Divisive, Criminal politics”, the album doesn’t reflect the ideology and it’s just looked like Pawan trying to cash in on his old hit songs. Simply put, the songs of the album are made with poor taste.
Pawan had a great music taste. Almost all the music albums of his films were hits and his films were called as musical hits irrespective of their performance at the BO.
Music lovers are wondering what has happened to Pawan’s judgement? As the album was originally planned for Feb 5th release, but the songs were released on Jan 24th in a hush hush manner, probably the hurry would have damaged the songs quality.
On the whole, pouring cold water on fans hopes, Pawan Kalyan and DJ Prithvi have failed to deliver a good music album.
