Soundtrack Review: Money Hai Toh Honey Hai

I had my time to get used to the songs, so here’s what I think.

01. Money Hai Toh Honey Hai (Nitz'N'Sony & Harshdeep Kaur)
This song is really giving me a hard time, I am no fan of all the new style music mixed with English and all. The vocals are good though, it’s something different for a start. Nevertheless the title does not convince me at all. 1,5/5 points

02. Awaara Dil (Adnan Sami, Shruti Pathak, Nitz'N'Sony, Arya, Bob, Ishq & Shantanu Hudlikar)
The beat of this song is nice but again the beat is too strong and I can’t stand those “non-sense” lyrics at all. Adnan’s voice is wasted on this title and the rap close to the end of the track is just too much. 1,5/5 points

03. Chhuriyaan (Labh Jhanjua & Sunidhi Chauhan)
The sole idea of Labh Jhanjua singing playback for Govinda is thrilling. In contrary to the first tracks this one sounds likeable. Sunidhi does a good job. The song is missing a chorus you could cling to, the rest is fine. 2,5/5 points

04. Ta Na Na (Kunal Ganjawala, Rekha Bhardwaj, Nitz'N'Sony, Earl E D & Arya)
Again there are these terrible rap lyrics somewhere in-between. Kunal singing for Govinda is just as cool as seeing Labh Jhanjua in the singer’s list. And getting Earl for this track was a good idea as well. I like Ta Na Na but it’s not convincing enough. 2,5/5 points

05. Rangeeli Raat (Daler Mehndi, Master Saleem, Sunidhi Chauhan & Arya)
By far the best track of the whole album, I can’t listen to Rangeeli Raat without standing up or at least do some finger tapping on the table – you just have to move to it! There’s something in this song that drives you to get into action. Wonderful song. 4,5/5 points

06. No Big Deal (Suraj Jagan)
The title is not forecasting the result, I like this one. It’s nice to see a quiet title on this album as well and this Suraj Jagan has an interesting voice. If only they stayed with Hindi... who needs the English lyrics? Actually, nobody does. 4/5 points

07. Dance Master (Shaan & Shivamani)
These days there needs to be a Shaan track on every album, isn’t it? Dance Master is a good track, I liked it right away. Nice style, good music and a chorus you can cling to. 3,5/5 points

08. Hope (Instrumental)
Instrumentals are something I never really like without seeing the scene they are used in. It’s a calm track, very contrary to all the others and even quiter than No Big Deal. I am curious how they will use it in the movie. 3,5/5 points

On the whole the music of MHTHH sounds better than last year’s Partner soundtrack, there are strong titles like No Big Deal and Rangeeli Raat and, on the other hand, also titles that I can’t really stand, like Awaara Dil. Average soundtrack, gets 3/5 points overall.
