– The Statesman – September 2nd 2008
"Overall, in many ways, Shaa'ir and Func are the best thing to happen to Indian rock music in a while. And that's because they aren't Indian, nor are they rock. Their vibe is cosmopolitan and truly 'world' without the limitations of generic considerations cramping their style."
–SPLIT magazine
"It's a very creative record…we're tipping that it's gonna be big!"
- RAVE magazine re. New Day: The Love Album's 4/5 stars
"Shaa'ir and func is a band that is clearly changing how Indian music is perceived to be…"
– Mid-Day News
"Fusing a mélange of poetry, funk, R&B, electronica, and a healthy side of jazz, Shaa'ir and Func live to serve up the unexpected. Their bridging of the gaps between a plethora of genres is reflected in their first record, New Day: The Love Album."
–Nirali Magazine
"They overwhelm you with their rich, frothy music; there's a flushed up energy exploding through every note. There's an underlying sensual pleasure that the electronic explorations bring you, and though you might be tempted to compare them to other international electronic acts, the chemistry that you can dig into while listening to Shaa'ir + Func is unique. "
–The Record
"Her lyrical quirkiness and his equally wacky approach to music aiming to cut across the urban youth has caught on as a frenzy"
- DNA News
"[Shaa'ir] is killing the cynics with hope, and she doesn't even know it."
– The Rock Street Journal
"A promising new sound"
– Mumbai Mirror
"A very creative record…it's gonna be big!"
- RAVE India re. New Day: The Love Album's 4 of 5 stars
