Lyrics

Produced
by K. Vaithialinga Udayar and directed
by Arvindraj, this action-comedy has Sathyaraj,
Karan, Anu Haasan, Anika, Suhani and others
in its star cast. Bharadwaj, who turned
out some uncharacteristically trendy music
for Asal recently, handles the music department.
Five tracks are listed in the album.
Kannum Kannum...
Vocals: Karthik, Surmukhi
This pleasant duet starts off with a Kalyani
raga touch and later on the composer gives
it a Hamsavinodhini raga touch with the
suddha ‘ma’ swara. The instrumental
pieces are soft and crisp.
Minsaram Medhuvai...
Vocals: Sathyan, Sunitha

Obviously a dance number, but what pleases
you here is the tight leash exercised on the musical
instruments. No matter what the decibel level is,
this song won’t hurt your ears. Neat!
Yaanai Katti...
Vocals: Ananthu, Mukesh, Karthikeyan,
Surmukhi & Chorus.
Another dance number, with a strong ethnic touch to
it. Again, we have feathery percussive touches that
don’t hurt your ears.
Penn
Nenjam...
Vocals: Bharadwaj
& Chorus
The composer’s sonorous voice comes across as
a pleasant relief. With the song pitched on the 3-kattai
madhyama sruti, we wonder whether the raga is Kapi
or Peelu. Bharadwaj’s familiarity with the Hindustani
music idiom reflects in this song which is all about
pining for lost love.
Aasa
Vachaen...
Vocals: Sunitha
Menon
A mournful number, whose effect is amplified by the
brooding rhythm work in the background. An odd use
of Kuntalavarali raga notes, it appears. Sung very
expressively too.
Verdict:
The music is very businesslike here. Not many instruments,
just those necessary for invoking the mood of the
song. A bit of a surprise and disappointment for Bharadwaj
fans. |
