Produced
by Kalpathi S. Aghoram and directed
by S. Sakthivel (his debut movie),
this film stars Nakulan and
Poorna (‘Muniyandi Vilangiyal
Moonraamandu’) in lead
roles. Nakulan, who had already
lent his voice in ‘Boys’
and ‘Vettaiyaadu Vilaiyadu’,
gets to sing a solo number here.
Dhina scores the music and the
album lists five songs.
Kalakalakkura Kandhakottai...
Vocals: Tippu,
Dhina
Lyrics: Yugabharathi
A typical ‘Nakulan style’
kutthu paattu that advocates
a lively ‘hands-on’
approach to life and warns us
not to stagnate. The zest in
the verses is very well captured
by Tippu’s lovely voice.
Indian rhythms, guitar and keyboard
sangatis add to the speed.
Kaadhal Pambu Unnai...
Vocals: Benny
Dayal, Sowmya Rao, Devprakash

The opening is slightly dramatic and swirling,
so as to reflect the sentiments of the first
line. A peppy number where the man tries
to shy away from falling in love and the
woman urges to give himself over to love
to become a better person! Strong inputs
from the guitar and keyboard, with a tiny
percussive bit before the second charanam.
Could briefly hit the charts.
Eppadi Ennul Kadhal...
Vocals: Nakulan
Lyrics:
Vivega
Nakulan springs a pleasant surprise on us
with this neat and full-throated rendering.
The lyrics are rather amusing with the man
wondering what really made him fall for
his girl! Nice use of violins and mandolin.
The song seems to be based lightly on the
Harikamboji scale. Could hit the charts
for Nakulan’s voice.
Unnai
Kadhali Enru... 
Vocals: Naresh
Iyer, Sadhana Sargam, Dhina
Lyrics: Kabilan
A pleasant melodic duet in what appears
to be Kiravani raga scale. A song of love
and intimacy, it runs on easy rhythms. Good
singing from both, except for the oddly
stressed word ‘cholla’. The
strings add a charming touch.
Dishyum Dishyum...
Vocals: Shankar
Mahadevan, Suchitra
Lyrics: Vivega
Obviously a dance number with suggestive
movements, going by the frenzied pace of
the song. What probably stops it from being
a drag is the lively rendering of Shankar
Mahadevan. Suchitra keeps pace with him.
Verdict:
Except for the novelty of Nakulan’s
voice and the cool duet, this album does
not have much to recommend. |
