In this reviewer’s humble opinion, there is a fine line between having your own sound and being repetitive.
A R Rahman is one of the few music directors in Bollywood — or for that matter anywhere — who can tread that line.

‘Guru’ leaves quite a classy impression. On one side there are some lovable songs like ‘Barso Re’, ‘Bin Tere’ and ‘Mayya’ while on the other side there is a track like ‘Jaage Hain’. Though ‘Ay Hairathe’ would invite mixed response, ‘Ek Lo Ek Muft and ‘Baazi Laga’ would have to depend a lot on the way they are presented on screen.
