VELAINNU VANTHUTTA VELLAKARAN CAST & CREW

Aaravalli

Singers : Vaikom Vijayalakshmi, Mahalingam

Lyricist : Yugabharathi

 

The rustic album begins on a folksy note with a swift rendition by Vaikom Vijayalakshmi. The riveting percussions takes an inevitable front seat with vigor and pace. However, the song blends to Hip-Hopstyle as well as it progresses in effortless ease. The bass work during the changeover deserves a special mention. Yugabharati’s peppy lyrics also set the ambience perfectly. The composer attempts to strike a balance between sultry folk and Hip-hop and succeeds quite well.

 

Kutheeti

Singer : Sathya Prakash

Lyricist : Yugabharathi

 

The peppiness is retained with a tantalizing melody sung well by Sathya Prakash. The brilliant bass changeovers as the song progresses is another brilliant aspect. The orchestration is quite minimal with impressive usage of electric classical violin in the interludes supported ably by acoustic guitar strums. The song is like a sublime path in rural roads of Tamil Nadu with an interesting Rajasthani folk treatment in the form of saarangi!

 

Papparamittai

Singer : Sreeramachandra

Lyricist : Yugabharathi

 

A racy solo in the vocals of Sreeramchandra arrives next with unlikely usage of brass band instruments blended with electric guitar. The swift presence of trumpets give a festive atmosphere to the track and the Jazzy treatment of Carnatic Raaga Abheri is another impressive attempt.

 

Ayyo Paavam

Singer : Jayamoorthy

Lyricist : Yugabharathi

 

The finale gets the hilarious treatment with another striking attempt to fuse between electric guitar, teasing trumpets and excellent vocals of Jayamoorthy. Surprisingly, the folksy violin follows the song sincerely throughout. Watch out for the cool electric guitar solo followed by contrasting nadaswaram in the first interlude!

Verdict: Velainu Vandhuta Vellaikaaran is an average album from C.Sathya which is high on folk experiments. The album could have fared better with much impressive presentation of the fusion attempts!
