Rank	Last week	Film	Plusses	Minuses
1	1	Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Naa	Imran Khan couldn't have asked for better. His film is getting a mega release, he has none other than Aamir Khan to back him up, there is good buzz about his debut and quite importantly he has A.R Rahman delivering a superb soundtrack. All that's required now is to see how good the film turns out to be when it releases this Friday!	None
2	2	Jannat	Even as the film is looking at celebrating a 50 days run at the box office soon, this Pritam soundtrack has been around for much longer than that. Bhatts can celebrate one more addition to their catalogue of timeless albums.	None
3	New	Kismat Konnection	Now that's what one terms as a truly smash hit entry into the charts! After 'Race' and 'Jannat', Pritam has now made it three in a row with 'Kismat Konnection' too hitting the bull's eye. With the album breaking into Top-3 in just a week of it's release, it would have to do quite well over the period of time to sustain itself at this position.	The sole track composed by Sajid-Wajid, 'Soniye Ve' isn't as impressive as the rest of the album that has songs by Pritam.
4	3	Race	Dropping out of Top-3 due to TIPS/Pritam's own 'Kismat Konnection' taking a flying start at the music stands, 'Race' moves a step down. Still, 'Race' has done good enough to gain such high numbers for itself that any other newer album would have to do exceedingly well to emerge as the best seller before the end of year.	None
5	4	Love Story 2050	Hovering around the middle of the charts and not really proving to be challenging enough to be a contender for the top spot, 'Love Story 2050' is now reaching it's theatrical release date.	Latest number to have arrived on the music channels is the title song but with the film's theme being it's USP rather than the music, one waits to see if there is any escalation in sales after 4th July!
6	5	Ada	If one has to really draw comparisons between musical successes of 'Ada' with that of a film, 'Bheja Fry' is the one that comes in mind. Just like the film which went on to be a success just on the basis of word of mouth, even this soundtrack by A.R. Rahman is also following suit!	Except for the songs that are managing to hold on well, there is absolutely no buzz about the overall project, it's cast, theme etc.
7	8	Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic	'Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic' has turned out to be an overall 'thanda' affair for Shankar Ehsaan Loy. However, with the release of the film, one still would look forward to the next fortnight and then ascertain if the situational theme tracks help any sales!	As can be seen from the reviews and the audience word of mouth, music has turned out to be one of the most ignored aspects of 'Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic'
8	10	Ugly Aur Pagli	Anu Malik has a reason to smile as his 'Ugly Aur Pagli' is fetching a decent response amongst the club hoppers! Moving up by a couple of spots, the music is catching up well with the youngsters with the second track currently on the music channels - 'Karle Gunaah' - turning out to be an interesting composed and shot number too!	A few listeners may scoff at the idea that 'Uglu Aur Pagli' carries a standard club-sound album that may not necessarily enjoy a long shelf life
9	7	Khuda Kay Liye	'Khuda Kay Liye has been seeing a sharp decline since last 2-3 weeks. Now at the verge of being almost out of the charts, the album seems to have been picked by all who had been making a queue for it after a strong word of mouth!	None
10	9	De Taali	At the bottom of the barrel and not really making much progress, 'De Taali' may soon be history once 'Singh Is Kinng', 'Rock On' and a couple of other major albums arrive in next fortnight! This Vishal-Shekhar album would be remembered most for it's title song and 'Maari Teetri'.	The film is showing exit signs in a week or two it would be off from theaters. This would strongly impact 'De Taali', just like it did for Vishal-Shekhar's last - 'Tashan'!
