'Kadhalil Vizhundhen' fame, director P.V. Prasad is back with a film titled 'Eppadi Manasukkul Vandhai', which has Vishwa, Irfan and Miss India 2008 Tanvi Vyas in lead roles. Music is by A J Daniel, a former associate of Harris Jeyaraj. Does this movie match up to the ‘Nakka Mukka’ sensation created by the director in his earlier film? Read on to find out. 

En Kadhal Neethane…
Singer: Karthik
Lyricist: P.V.Prasad

The song opens with striking string instrumentals and proceeds to be a soulful romance pathos number with steady beats. The instrumentals add to the mellow ‘feeling’ of the song and Karthik is consistent as always. A special mention for the ending of the song where the beats fade away beautifully.

En Kadhal Neethane…
Instrumental

This is the instrumental version of the previous song. The piano dominates with ample accompaniments from the violin. But when the instrumentals become a bit heavy, the serene mood that was created at first is lost and a heroic mood spills over. A nice attempt for sure.

En Thottathu Apple…
Singers: Benny Dayal & Priya Hemesh
Lyricist: P.V.Prasad

Benny Dayal is generally given cheerful songs that have Western influences and this song is no different. There are foot tapping beats and the mood of the song is typically youthful. Priya Hemesh’s humming bits go with the mood of the song and there is a very small rap portion thrown in as well.

Malaipola…
Singer: Priya Hemesh
Lyricist: P.V.Prasad

This is a very short number with minimum instrumental accompaniments and just the refreshing voice of Priya carrying the number through.

Oru Parvaiyile…
Singer: Harish Raghavendra
Lyricist: P.V.Prasad

This ‘love failure’ number takes off from where the previous number ended. This time it’s Harish Raghavendra doing the honors. We know his high pitched style of singing and this song stays true to his style. The instrumentals comprising nadaswaram and violin add value to the song which is a bit dramatic and old fashioned. A decent effort that is high on tempo, nevertheless.

Verdict: Just passable but the composer has an ear for melodies.
