Review:
With the title track, Dhaani already promising to be the next big hit from Strings after Sar Kiye Yeh Pahar, Duur, Anjaane, Hai Koi Hum Jaisa, things are looking up for the band. This album also ensures that their following will continue to grow.
The album, penned by writer Anwar Maqsood and poet Zehra Nigah comprises 10 tracks. The lyrics are there but one feels that its the melody that sets this album apart from their previous efforts. Their music has definately matured a lot since their last album (Duur) and one feels that both Bilal and Faisal are now totally committed to Strings and have finally decided that music is their forte and that they will stick with it.
Herald (Sept., 2003): "[The album's] high points include Bolo Bolo, a blend of semi-classical and contemporary music where vocalist Faisal Kapadia croons with India's Hari Haran and Chaaye Chaaye".
Bilal Maqsood on Dhaani: (The News interview, 31st Aug, 2003)
"This time around we have experimented as far as arrangements are concerned. Musically there are a lot of experimentations. The album has a very groove-oriented feel. We are more active on the rhythm front in Dhaani. After Duur we realized that though melodically our songs are good, but people want something foot tapping. Keeping that in mind, we made our songs groovier."
After listening to the album we can confirm that they have done just that.
Note: Now this CD is available in a hard paper cover but it is packed very carefully to avoid any damages.
