S.I.D.H.U, sung by Kailash-Paresh-Naresh is a funny number that sketches out the lead character of the film, who is named Sidhu. The song is entertaining with a dash of tabla and sitar thrown in. This is a kind of narrative number of the album and introduction to Akshay Kumar.

The title song “Chandni Chowk To China” by Neeraj Shridhar, Anushka Manchanda and Shankar Mahadevan is another fun song composed with chunks of western, Indian and Chinese elements. You might have heard the song during the promos of the film. The lead stars praise themselves and this track might just gel well with the movie’s script. A faster paced remixed version by DJ Amyth is also present.

One more version of the same track, composed and sung by musician Bohemia and Akshay Kumar, is different from the original version. It is also a better listen, evoking memories of “Singh Is Kinng”.

India Se Aaya Tera Dost, borrowed from the 80’s film “Aap Ki Khatir” (that had Rekha and Vinod Khanna) mouthing “Bumbai Se Aaya Meraa Dost”. This is another track with strange Chinese elements that and more or less chugs along.

Tere Naina is a romantic number sung by the honey sweet Shreya Ghoshal and talented Shankar Mahadevan. I don’t need to tell you about the recurring Chinese jingles, but the lyrics by Rajat Arora stand out. Easily the best number of the album.

Chak Lein De has been composed, written and sung by Kailash Kher with a bit of help by brothers Paresh and Naresh. This track is a wannabe inspirational number aiming to juice up the screen. Kailash improvised on amalgamating some sufi tunes and western sounds. A remixed version again by DJ Amyth is also present, but its nothing to write home about.
