Airlift : Hindi

Music by: Amaal Mallik and Ankit Tiwari

1] Soch na sake (2 versions): This song is the highlight of the album. Although the most attractive lines of the song are taken from Hardy Sandhu's song "Soch", Amaal Mallik has made significant contribution in composing rest of melody equally pleasant and also arranging the song beautifully. Arijit Singh's solo version sounds better than the duet version due to Tulsi Kumar's limitations.

2] Mera nachan tu: This is a typical Punjabi-folk derived song. Song is a good listen but fails to make any impression and doesn't seem catchy at all.

3] Tu bhula jise: The patriotic and very well arranged song. KK has rendered the song with required feel. Producers should have thought about including instrumental version of the song.

4] Dil cheez tujhe de di: It is the only song composed by Ankit Tiwari. The song is designed to have a middle-eastern (Arabic) feel with instruments used in song and its arrangement. Song is very much catchy and makes impression very quickly. However, song derives melody for the words 'de di' from Cheb Khaled's very popular song 'dee dee'.

Overall, an impressive album.
