Produced
by Prakash Raj’s Duet Movies and Moserbaer Int;
and directed by Radha Mohan. Starring Trisha as Abhirami,
Prakash Raj as her father and Aishwarya as her mother
with Prithviraj doing a cameo role. The movie is supposed
to have a critically acclaimed storyline and revolves
around the ever-special father-daughter relationship.
After Mozhi’s success, naturally, this film is
being eagerly looked forward to by discerning fans,
because Prakash Raj has a natural

passion for good cinema. Vidyasagar has scored the music
for this movie tuning four regular songs and three ‘songlets’(
so to speak). How has the melody man expressed himself here?
Let us have a dekko!
Ore Oru Oorile---
Vocals: Kailash Kher
Lyrics: Vairamuthu
As the title reveals, a song in the storytelling mode, introducing
the main characters in a nutshell( in a dramatic tradition).
Carefree folksy beats with minimum use of instrumental music
like flute, keys etc; sung in a slightly high pitch by Kailash
like a wandering minstrel of those days! His voice reminds
one of Narendra Chanchal of yesteryears. But his pronounciation
needs huge workouts! We have a doting dad, rock solid mom
and of course an ideal daughter here.

Vaa En Dhevadhaye---
Vocals: Madhu Balakrishnan
Lyrics: Vairamuthu
A very melodious number sung oh so delightfully by
Madhu Balakrishnan. Though the song itself recalls
snatches of ‘ boomiyile aadavanda’ of
Vidyasagar and a wee bit of ‘malarndum malaradha’
an old hit, Vairamuthu’s lyrics really lift
up the song. Unhurried beats and some soft interludes
of flute and dilruba. Reflects a father’s proud
enjoyment of each stage of his daughter’s growing
up. The mettu itself is like the tripping of a young
girl.

Pachai
Kaatre---
Vocals: Sadhana Sargam
Lyrics: Vairamuthu
Again Vairamuthu scores—especially in the line’Pergalai
maatri nee azhaitthalum kadalgalukkul suvarillai’.
A song that just embraces humanity with warmth. And
sung equally warmly by Sadhana. Vidyasagar has brought
in a distinct hindi-belt feel to this song, be it
the flute or the suggestive shehnai and ‘jalatarangam’-
like effects in the interludes. A few snatches of
Bhangra blend well with the song.
