Music review: Girlz

The promotional campaign of the film banked almost entirely on the boldness and outgoing attitude of girls and most of the songs are on similar lines. Of the four songs, three have been composed by Praful-Swapnil and one by Samir Saptiskar.

The album starts with Aaichya Gavat, sung by Vaishali Samant, Kavita Raam and

Mugdha Karhade

. From dating and cheating to partying letting go, Mandar Cholkar's lyrics pack everything that youngsters would probably discuss about life every once in a while. Like the lyrics, the composition too is a mish-mash of traditional bats and hints of EDM. Not too merciful on the ears, thanks to loud beats, this one could be a preferred party number for many though.

Mugdha and

Swapnil Godbole

sing the next track, Swag Mazya Fatyavar, another party number. The EDM-dhol fusion continues here, albeit a little mildly. The lyrics again are bank on collegians' talk and are filled with references to social media, swag and more. The song is composed like a face-off between boys and girls, and on that front, it scores.

Next up is a remade version of the popular song Chabidar Chabi from 1972 film Pinjara. The original song, composed by Ram Kadam, and sung by Usha Mangeshkar with lyrics from Jagdish Khebudkar, like other songs from Pinjara, has been a favourite with the Marathi audience. In the remade version, Khebudkar's lyrics and Kadam's music get a modern makeover from Jai Atre and Praful-Swapnil respectively. If you are a fan of the original, this one might not strike a chord, but for the younger viewers, it is an aptly created number.

The album ends with Bairagi Mann. Composed by Saptiskar, this one is crooned by Neeti Mohan. It has a serene, yet pacy exploration vibe going on as the protagonists travel and discover new things. This is easily the best song of the album.
