Produced
by G. Dhanalakshmi, directed
by B. Raja and starring Avitej,
Thirinath, Vivek, Vainavi and
Parvathi, this movie has Vidyasagar
scoring music for it. Both his
recent albums ‘Peraanmai’
and ‘Kandein Kadhalai’
have some fresh original music
in them and his fans must be
surely anticipating another
bright album from him. Let us
see how he has fared this time.
There are six songs in the album.
Naalu Suvarum---
Vocals: Benny
Dayal, Rahul Nambiar, Timmy.
Lyrics: Karky
This song could right away strike
a chord in the hearts of youngsters
for its cute sentiments (Hola,
Amigo), fun lyrics and the jaunty
Spanish beats we hear on and
off. But can it make it to the
charts?
Vaanam Puthidhu---
Vocals: Vijay
Yesudas, Sainthavi.

This song draws much of its color from the
background music that has been so lovingly
piled on to the lyrics. Well done, Karky
– such sensitive lyrics! Very pleasing
inputs from the keys, flute and rhythms.
Vijay sounds so much like his father that
it almost brings a lump to your throat.
The song appears to be on the Sankarabaranam
scale.
Kulukki
Kulukki---
Vocals: Karthik, Ajay,
Maya, Prasanthini.
Lyrics: Karky
A joyful, noisy celebration of the process
of falling in love, to the accompaniment
of thundering guitar sounds and assertive
keys! Pretty lyrics again. The tune somehow
has a ‘heard before’ feel to
it. Could make a brief visit to the charts.
Kadhal---
Vocals: Sujatha.
Lyrics: N. Jeyantha
Again the tune sounds somewhat familiar.
Sujatha’s rendering is as faultless
as ever. The keyboards and strings offer
fine support. Is it the raga Kalyani that
we hear in this song?
Angadhai---
Vocals: Karthik, Sricharan.
Lyrics: Karky
A short bit with guitars. Just listen to
the quaint names (all denoting women) that
roll out. Does ‘Angadhai’ also
mean ‘woman’? The Tamil Agaradhi
does not seem to list it. Could be liked
for its feel.
Kuthu
Paattu---
Vocals: Rehan Khan, Srilekha
Parthasaradhy.
Lyrics: Pa. Vijay
Oh, Ho, here we have Vidyasagar doing a
Deva! Whatever prompted him to come up with
such an odd piece, we don’t know.
Rehan Khan’s voice leaves a lot to
be desired. The way the rap bit slides into
the native rhythms at the start is funny.
Verdict:
Mmmm…Vidyasagar fans could be in for
a bit of disappointment here. The album
does have its bright moments—especially
the keyboard bits, but the distinctive touch
so special to the Melody Maker goes missing
this time.
