There are, not one, but four music directors who have composed music for KC Bokadia's Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam, starring Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan and Madhuri Dixit.
The title track of Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam has nice lyrics and soothing music by Nikhil Vinay.
Sab kuch bhoola diya, yeh wafa ka kaisa sila siya is average. But it is too long and gets boring after a point. It is a mystery as to why Sonu Nigam tries to imitate Mohammad Rafi, when he sounds better in his natural voice. However, the same song has been sung well by Sapna Awasthi. It is composed by Bali Brahmabhatt.
Aagaya aagaya, dil choorane aagaya is a disaster. Lyrics like Life is loveable, dil mera available sound pathetic.
Na na nana is a fast number composed by Daboo Malik. This track has great dance beats.
Another fast number, Dil tod aaya is composed by Sajid-Wajid. This is a good rock number. Wonder why the director preferred different music directors for fast tracks.
Taron ka chamakta ho will put you off when the music director turns on the popular Meri Marzi, featuring Govinda.
Overall, the music is passable.

When a talent like Jatin Lalit is associated with a film, one naturally expects good music. However, the music of the Bobby Deol-Amisha Patel starrer Kranti shatters all such myths.
The album, comprising of six tracks, begins with the mediocre yet hummable Dil mein dard sa, in the voices of Udit Narayan and Alka Yagnik.
Shaan and Sunidhi Chauhan's Mera dil tu follows, leaving you indifferent.
Ishq jaadu ishq tona is at its insipid best. Off late, the otherwise talented Sunidhi appears to be in the danger of sounding monotonous in all her songs.
Asha Bhosle infuses life and spice in the otherwise lusterless Jung ho ya yaar.
Alka Yagnik, along with Udit Narayan, attempts to sound cute with the irksome O naukar sarkari. Not a bit amusing!
The album winds up with the vivacious duo of Sonu Nigam and Kavita Krishnamurthy crooning the upbeat, foot tapping dance track Hai o rabba.
Kranti's music is the kind that can play in the background and you won't even realise when the music begins or ends.
Hard to believe the usually effervescent Jatin Lalit is at the helm of this surprisingly listless album. Evidently his best is reserved only for the Yash Chopras and the Karan Johars.
