Development

edit

Vishal–Shekhar composed the film's soundtrack in his second collaboration with Khan and Zafar after Sultan (2016). He replaced Sohail Sen, the original composer of the predecessor Ek Tha Tiger, whereas Julius Packiam, who did the background score for the first film, returned for the sequel. Vishal Dadlani, Atif Aslam, Sukhwinder Singh, Neha Bhasin, Shreya Ghoshal, Jyoti Nooran and Raftaar performed vocals for the songs. Meghdeep Bose produced two of the songs: "Swag Se Swagat" and "Daata Tu" while Abhijit Nalani, produced the remainder of the tracks.[1][2] According to Bose, the song "Swag Se Swagat" took him nine months for the appropriate sound.[1][3] The composing duo arranged Packiam's theme track from the first film as the title track "Zinda Hai" to enhance its appeal.[4] Atif Aslam performed the song "Dil Diyan Gallan", despite the ban imposed on Pakistani artists working in Hindi film industry, in response to the 2016 terrorist attack in Jammu and Kashmir.[5] Initially, the song was offered to Arijit Singh before Khan refused him after a dispute with the singer on an award show, back in 2014.[6]

Release

edit

The song "Swag Se Swagat" was released as a single from the album on 19 November 2017.[7][8] While the song was appreciated for Khan and Kaif's dance, and the composition, it was also accused of being allegedly lifted from the song "The Horns" by DJ Katch.[9] An Arabic version the song was performed by Rabih Baroud and Brigitte Yaghi.[10] The second song "Dil Diyan Gallan" was released on 26 November,[11] with Khan and Kaif appearing at the 11th season of Bigg Boss.[12][13] The album was released under the YRF Music label on 7 December.[14][15]

Reception

Critical

edit

Devarsi Ghosh of Scroll.in wrote "[Vishal–Shekhar] seem to have been on auto-pilot mode in the five original tracks of this shoot-'em-up flick – nothing strikes and nothing lands".[16] Devansh Sharma of Firstpost wrote "the music of Tiger Zinda Hai offers more diversity than that of the first part but its best songs may not end up becoming the most popular of the year."[17] Vipin Nair of The Hindu wrote "Vishal-Shekhar’s only release for the year gives the Tiger series some much needed sonic reprieve."[18] Karthik Srinivasan of Milliblog wrote "This tiger is alive and kicking".[19]

Pramod Gaikwad, writing for International Business Times stated: "To sum up everything, the combination Vishal-Shekhar and Ali Abbas Zafar in Tiger Zinda Hai has once again proved to be a winner after Sultan (2016) in terms of music."[20] Joginder Tuteja of Bollywood Hungama rated three-and-a-half out of five and wrote "The music of Tiger Zinda Hai is primarily situational [...] there is 'Swag Se Swagat' and that should keep the party goers happy till the next Salman Khan film arrives."[21] Ganesh Aaglave of Bollywood Life described the album as "a mixed bag of dancing numbers and soulful melodies."[22]
