All of them are written by Suneeta, with arrangements by NEXUS, consisting of Gino Banks, Sangeet Haldipur and Sheldon D’Silva, plus three tracks arranged by DJ Gaurav Issar. “Sun Zara”, a song for the Girl Child is the first video track in the album. This up tempo and racy song is an appeal to women, to stop the practice of sex selection. It has been supported by UNFPA, and the video has been shot by Jason West and directed by Rachel Reuben. It stars Suneeta along with the actress Suchitra Pillai and will be seen on air this month. The title song, “Waqt”, features the legendary drummer Lenny White and has Carnatic music influences. There is also a Punjabi dance tune with a bump and grind groove that will appeal to all ages. The breezy “Ye Dooriyan” has a hypnotic, lounge feel, while “Lage More Nain” is a soaring ballad inspired by a “Thumri”, about love and longing. The groovy “Aaj Mohe” and peppy “Ye Zameen” are sure to bring the club going crowd to the dance floor.
