City all ears to mush magic

<div class="section1"><div class="Normal">They might be thumbing down the love tales of Rahul- meeting- Pooja -in- the- snow -capped -Swiss -Alps yet when it comes to music, the ever-discerning audience is crooning <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">dil maange </span>only to <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">pyaar bhare geet</span>. Going by the music charts, the top summer smashers are all romantic flicks- some released and some about to be. <br /><br />Leading the musical tally is the Shah Rukh Khan- Rani Mukherjee starrer <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Chalte Chalte </span>followed by <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Main Prem Ki Diwani Hoon</span>, <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Saathiya</span>, <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Ishq Vishk </span>and <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Armaan</span>. Reaffirming the hit magic of romantic hits, an official of Planet M says, "All top five albums are romantic films. Time and again, its been proved that Indians like their music soft and melodious. Such is the hold of romantic songs that <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Dil Vil Pyaar Vyaar </span>which was released last year is still at No 19 in our national charts while <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Rehna Hai Terre Dil Mein </span>which released two years back is still at No 8. Even <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Jism </span>which has romantic tracks has done so well." <br /><br />About the current top five albums, the Aziz Mirza directed <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Chalte Chalte </span>has music by Jatin- Lalit and Aadesh Shrivastava. Like the earlier Dreamz Unlimited ventures <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Yes Boss</span>, <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani </span>and <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Asoka</span>, <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Chalte Chalte </span>has hit the formula of feel good soft romance, which never goes out of vogue. Songs like <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Tauba Tumhaare Yeh Ishaare </span>and <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Suno Na Suno Na </span>are already chartbusters. Says an official of Planet M,"<span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Chalte Chalte </span>is way ahead from any other new release. There was a definite buzz about the film and we had enquiries landing up days before the album even released." <br /><br />Rajshri''s Main <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Prem Ki Diwani Hoon </span>set to tunes by Anu Malik, is a treat for all KK- Shaan and Chitra fans who have lend vocals for Hrithik, Abhishek and Kareena respectively. The number <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Teri Zindagi Mein Chali Aayi Chali Aayi </span>is a big hit. <br /><br />And what else is left to say about AR Rahman''s musical <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Saathiya</span>, its what you call a grosser! Anu Malik''s youthful music for the teen flick <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Ishq Vishk </span>is already spewing many ‘me too''s while Shankar-Ehsan-Loy''s mature romantic numbers in <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Armaan </span>are already on every Bollywood music lover''s ''must have'' list! Romance in the (musical) air-waves! </div> </div>
