Musical duo Sajid-Wajid has made a big mark in the biz this year with the release of "Wanted" and the highly anticipated film "Main Aurr Mrs. Khanna." With a movie starring Salman Khan and Kareena Kapoor, you would expect a romantic flick filled with passionate numbers. And whenever you combine the skills of Sajid-Wajid with Salman Khan's talent, you would guess that at least one or two of the tracks will become chartbusters. But since this film is the directing debut of newcomer Prem R Soni, we probably won't be expecting much from the film. But that doesn't stop us from liking the soundtrack. 

What We Think:
When you hear the soundtrack's first song "Don't Say Alvida," you assume that it will soon top the charts. The track is old school and timeless but it works as a contemporary love song with Sonu Niigaam at his best. Shreya Ghoshal joins in a little later while Suzanne D'Mello is primarily a backup vocalist. Still, the two make their presence felt in this song that also exist in a well done remix version and a 90-second slow-n-sad version (Shreya Ghoshal solo). The item song "Happening" is a great foot-tapping number interpreted by Preity Zinta in the remix. If you want some slow-paced romance, you may want to check out Rahat Fateh Ali Khan in "Rabba," a calm and sad track. Wajid takes his singing seriously in "Tum Ne Socha" that has a soft rock feel and marries Shreya Ghoshal's fine voice well. The soundtrack ends in a bang with some dhol beats in the track "Mrs. Khanna" performed by the great Shaan and the musical diva Sunidhi Chauhan.

Best Tracks:
"Don't Say Alvida," "Tum Ne Socha," "Happening"

Final Verdict:
"Main Aurr Mrs. Khanna" is an enjoyable soundtrack and I promise you won't find anything bad to say about it . Listeners should expect at least a couple of chartbusters. All numbers from "Main Aurr Mrs. Khanna" remain consistent and work well in their own way. The best of the bunch though are the romantic tracks "Don't Say Alvida" and "Tum Ne Socha." And "Happening" should easily get the album sales up.
