Bollywood Bollywood - Chargesheet by Jaydip, Sanjay, Shreya Ghoshal, Sunidhi Chauhan

Few songs from 2011 have held their ground as well as Bollywood Bollywood - Chargesheet, a track that keeps finding new audiences. Jaydip, Sanjay sets the tone from the very first bar — it is clear from the opening notes that this song means business.

The performance by Jaydip, Sanjay, Shreya Ghoshal, Sunidhi Chauhan is the centrepiece here — controlled where it needs to be, open where it counts. Hearing Bollywood Bollywood - Chargesheet without thinking of Dev Anand, Jackie Shroff, Divya Dutta is almost impossible for anyone who has seen Chargesheet.

2011 marked the release of Chargesheet, and Bollywood Bollywood - Chargesheet was the track that ensured the album would be remembered. It is the kind of track that works at full volume with friends and equally well in a quiet room alone — the mood adjusts without the song changing.

The 5:26 runtime feels perfectly judged — long enough to develop its ideas, short enough to compel a second play. It is, at the end of it, a very good song — and sometimes that is the only explanation that matters.
