Subhash Ghai - A film maker who has never got it wrong when it comes to the music of his films Sangeeth Sivan - A director who gave a surprise teen hit in the form of 'Kya Kool Hain Hum' last year Pritam - A composer who is churning out one hit after another, whether it is urban pop or 'desi' melodies Ritesh Deshmukh, Shreyas Talpde, Celina Jaitley, Koena Mitra, Riya Sen - A team that gives a fresh 'n' young look to the entire project And together they croon what the entire world has to say: APNA SAPNA MONEY MONEY!

 
         
   

An elaborate arrangement is the name of the game for 'Aey Ganpat Baja Na', a 'ganpati' song for which Pritam deserves brownie points for his different treatment. While conventional beats heard during 'ganpati' celebrations are all there, Pritam brings such a high charged Indian-Western fusion mix to his arrangements that one has to admit that this is a much better tune to dance to than 'Moreya Re' in 'Don - The Chase Begins Again'. The track is mainly a musical theme piece with only one line coming in intermittently - 'Aey Ganpat Baja Na' - with rest of it being mainly an amalgamation of different musical instruments.

 
   

Shabbir Ahmed is the lyricist for the soundtrack of this film which begins with homage to one sole factor that runs the world - MONEY! Come; rock the show - that's the call of 'Jai Jai Money.... Apna Sapna Money Money'. A superb item/title song all the way in the way it has been conceptualized, arranged and presented, the entire team behind the track needs to be complimented for coming up with something that doesn't have a single dull moment and is an instant attention grabber.

 
   

Pritam, as we know him from the pop 'n' rap ' reggae world from the days of 'Dhoom', 'Chocolate', 'Ek Khiladi Ek Haseena' etc., is back in his elements with 'Paisa Paisa' which has an international feel to it and it's difficult to imagine that you are hearing a song from a Hindi film. Except for the Hindi lyrics in the middle [which are far and few] that are sung by Suzzanne D' Mello, the song is so Western that you tend to appreciate Pritam's versatility as a composer. Humza croons the words 'Paisa Paisa' in this hip-hop track that has an amazing Middle East flavor to it with a Western theme running throughout. The song is sort of a sequel to 'Apna Sapna Money Money' and turns out to be worthy successor. A point to add - its picturisation is glitzy too with the starcast adding on the glamour quotient. A faster remix version comes next which has Suzzanne much more prominent that the original due to the way she has been placed. Second remix is more innovative due to the 'club' feel it brings along and hence gets an extra point for being more innovative. It starts off purely as an instrumental with the voices being heard quite late in the day. A winner for the dance floor!

 
   

A grand announcement is made for the arrival of one of the most interesting characters of the film - Sania Badnaam [Celina Jaitley]. While Bob does his rap'n'reggae while laying down the red carpet for Sania Badnaam, Sunidhi Chauhan is the voice for the protagonist who has no qualms about herself being the biggest con-woman of all! A rocking track with trademark Pritam feel to it, it is western, it is rhythmic and it is fun. Surprisingly there are traces of 'Dil Tera Badmaash Hai Karta Hai Badmaashian' ['Shart', starring Tushar Kapoor and Amrita Arora] that was composed by Anu Malik, though one may leave it as more of a coincidence since 'Dil Tera' was hardly heard when released and was nowhere near being popular. An item song by all means, this one is again for the youth!

 
 
   

Music of 'Apna Sapna Money Money' can be described in two words - SHEER FUN! It has so much of funk, masti and mazaa to it that you hardly realize when this hour long album began and ended. A non stop mix of 'desi' and 'videsi' tunes that are so catchy, they are high on decibel value but equally high on entertainment quotient too. It's only after hearing the album that one realizes that there has not been a single hero-heroine-pyaar-mohabbat-naach-gaana song coming in, and in spite of that the track is so much fun. One of the rare situational albums that works end-to-end on basis of its item songs, and that too in a big way.
