Love Is A Waste Of Time - PK by Shantanu Moitra, Sonu Nigam, Shreya Ghoshal

Some songs are made for a single moment. Love Is A Waste Of Time - PK is made for all of them. Credit goes to Shantanu Moitra for a score that understands exactly what the song needs and nothing more.

The vocal on Love Is A Waste Of Time - PK is among the better performances Shantanu Moitra, Sonu Nigam, Shreya Ghoshal has committed to record. The connection between Aamir Khan, Anushka Sharma, Sushant Singh Rajput, Sanjay Dutt, Boman Irani, Saurabh Shukla and this song is part of what makes it resonate beyond the film itself.

2014 was a strong year for Hindi music, and Love Is A Waste Of Time - PK was among the reasons why. It fits the playlist for almost any occasion, which is rare — most songs have a narrow emotional window. This one does not.

The 4:30 runtime feels perfectly judged — long enough to develop its ideas, short enough to compel a second play. Years from now, Love Is A Waste Of Time - PK will still be the track that plays at the right moment and lands exactly as it did the first time.
