This one clinches the top spot among the best dance numbers of 2009. Yes, there were a few other strong contenders including Suriya’s Pala Pala number from Ayan, Vijay’s Naan Adicha and a few others (Nagulan’s frenetic songs as well). But, Damakku Damakku beats the rest for its incessant flow of energy, smart (a bit unusual) choice of locations and most importantly some smart choreography with which Suirya excelled on screen. Of course, Benny Dayal’s rendition was the backbone of all the energy that was felt in the song, but that doesn’t take away credit from the team for bringing out a cracking dance number, perfect ‘intro’ song material. If only it was better placed in the movie!
