The roMa(hadeva)ntics were certainly pleased

Shankar Mahadevan – in collaboration with Ehsaan Noorani and Loy Mendonsa – aimed at giving a twist to the serenade and succeeded at it.

That was evident from Mann Ko Ati Bhavey Saiyyan, which was five minutes and 14 seconds long.

The London Dreams track, which was comical, couldn’t have been picturised on anyone but Salman Khan.

Prasoon Joshi deserved kudos for his use of shuddh Hindi words (which were strikingly incongruent with the backdrop*), as did Mahadevan for the nasal voice in which he rendered it.

(*Note: It was set against the Eiffel Tower in Paris.)
