Produced
by John Max and directed by Prabhu Solomon,
this movie is the story of a driver who
faces hardships in the hilly terrain in
which he operates. Vidarth is the hero
and Anaka (of Sindhu Samaveli’)
the heroine. D. Imman scores the music
and all lyrics except for song no.3, are
by Yugabarathy.
Mynaa Mynaa...
Vocals: Shaan
Though the Sankarabaranam scale-song itself
is an old mettu, Shaan’s enjoyable
singing and a neat background score (with
the glockenspiel, woodwinds, harp and
strings just making their presence felt)
can take this song up in the charts.

A sharp little kids’ number in what appears
to be Brindavani Saranga raga. Don’t miss the
raga essay on strings (sarangi?) and in the background
humming. Is a must-listen for its newness.

Vocals: Benny
Dayal, Shreya Ghosal
What a creative blend of the east and west here! Just
look at the use of nagaswaram in this song! By locating
this Harikamboji-scale piece on the ‘ma’
swara of the 3-kattai scale, Imman has been able to
add Karaharapriya touches to the song too. Very well
sung. Will hit the charts with vigour.

This number transports you to lush green fields and
quaint muddy village roads. Interestingly again, Imman’s
use of 1-kattai ‘pa’ swara as base note
here on the Natabairavi scale brings a light Todi
raga touch here and there. Neat rhythms and neater
singing. Is that the veena that has been put to trendy
use here?

Aha, some lovely violins we have here! Hmmm, Imman
again goes for the 1-kattai ‘pa’ of Karaharapriya
raga as base note and so we get to hear some Sankarabaranam
touches too. Very well put together with an accent
on softness, even in the top register.
Verdict:
Though a couple of mettu-s sound familiar, there is
a definite musical maturity about this album where
you have the eastern and western aspects of music
entwining with one another. There is enough breathing
space for the lyrics too. |
