1.Dil Dhadakne Do-Priyanka Chopra,Farhan Akhtar

An upbeat track kickstarts this cool urban soundtrack. Being the title song, SEL have taken care to add the right amount of hard rock and keep the listeners glued to their earphones. Priyanka Chopra's exuberant singing matches with Farhan Akhtar's raw vocals. This number is a complete 3:48 minutes of feast to the years!

2.Pehli Baar-Sukriti Kakar,Siddharth Mahadevan

Yet another rock track but this time SEL have made it into a duet. This number is sure to provide breeziness if you are out on a long road trip with your beloved. Though Sukriti Kakar's rendition is effervescent, it is Siddharth Mahadevan's vocals that stand out. There is nothing new in the tune composition but you can enjoy the number just for its simplicity.

3.Gallan Goodiyan-Yashita Sharma,Manish Kumar Tipu,Farhan Akhtar,Shankar Mahadevan,Sukhwinder Singh

A typical Punjabi number is next in this album. This number will surely be a chartbuster just for its Bhangra flavor and the repetitive tune arrangement. The host of singers do a good job in pepping up the number to higher notches. Each and every singer shares equal megaphone space in this track. Enjoyable!

4.Girls Like To Swing-Sunidhi Chauhan,Chorus

The trend of jazz numbers is catching up in Bollywood. This number might be the pinnacle of it as it is completely a fast paced jazz numbet that will make you swing your body. Sunidhi Chauhan croons like a pro jazz singer. She can get away with any kind of song in any kind of genre.

5.Phir Bhi Yeh Zindagi-Farhan Akhtar,Vishal Dadlani,Divya Kumar,Alyssa Mendosa

After some peppy numbers, it is time to lay back and listen to a soothing melody. SEL have finally composed their signature track with this one. The rhythm of the track is breezy and the vocals by an ensemble bunch of singers calm the senses. This number is surely the best of the lot! Expect a lot of emotions in its visuals.

Verdict:

When Bollywood is booming with long soundtracks, SEL have stuck to just 5 songs and delivered a rocking album.
