Toshi-Shaarib weave magic again with 'Aaj Ro Len De'.
Song: Rootha Kyun
Singers: Shaarib and Toshi Featuring Mohit Chauhan and Payal Dev
Lyrics: Azeem Shirazi
Music: Shaarib and Toshi
Music Label: T-Series
'Rootha Kyun' starts with a piano tune. This is a moderately speedy number when it comes to rhythm. The composition is not-so-catchy but Mohit Chauhan portrays his unique approach all over again in this number along with Sharib and Toshi. Payal Dev, a newcomer, is the female voice for the song. Her icy cold presentation is just suitable for the mood of the song. According to us, this is another hit by Sharib Toshi and definitely an excellent comeback for Mohit Chauhan.

Song: Tujhko Mein
Singers: Shaarib and Toshi Featuring Shaan
Music: Shaarib and Toshi
Lyrics: Azeem Shirazi
Music Label: T-Series
Tujhko Mein is a song where Sharib and Azeem come together once again. This track is an old school, four and a half minute track sung by Shaan. Shaan’s voice suits the track perfectly, but we believe that this song lacks the oomph factor. The composition and the lyrics could have been stronger and the music arrangements could have been much attention-grabbing. It is nothing exceptional.

Song: Aafreen
Singers: KK, Antara Mitra
Composers: Kaushik-Akash for J.A.M.
Lyrics: Prashant Ingole
Music Label: T-Series
Guest composers Kaushik-Akash for J.A.M. composed this number and the lyrics are penned by Prashant Ingole. This number has characteristically Bollywood sound effects. Beautifully sung by KK and Antara Mitra, this song has its notes in place. This will not smash the box office but it fits well with the film’s background.

This is a recreation of an old song ‘Gumnaam hai koi’ from the 1960s movie 'Gumnaam'. This song is considered as one of the most haunting songs of Indian cinema. The new song has been specially reincarnated in this movie '1920 London'. While the old version was slow and a bit scary to boot, the adaptation is quite fast and not so haunting. Though the singers have done a great job, the new arrangements failed to impress us.

Overall we feel that music of 1920 London has a decent sound.
