Albums

Debut Album: Lagi Lagan
Released: 08-08-08
Released by: Royant Music & Big Music
Music by: Robby Badal

Songlist:
  1. Piya Lagi Laganiya
  2. Lagi Lagi
  3. Manat Nahi
  4. Aye Na Balam
  5. Jabse Shyam Sidhare
  6. Babul Mora
  7. Piya Lagi laganiya (Video Edit)
  8. Lagi Lagi (House Remix)
  9. Barsan Lagi


In a music review published on PlanetBollywood.com, Amanda Sodhi comments, “It is great that finally someone has attempted to come out with an album that fuses thumri and world music genres—Lagi Lagan is an album worth listening to especially in a year when the music industry has continuously been disappointing…Aye Na Balam, Jabse Shyam Sidhare and Babul Mora are definitely the best tracks in the album. The rest of the songs do take more than one listen to get into, but are also enjoyable.”
