Produced

by Manigai, this film has a new music
director Siddharth from Mumbai. We have
Nandha (‘Pugaippadam’ fame)
Shaan (Inidhu Inidhu) and newcomer Yashica
from Bangalore, Nizhalgal Ravi, Srinath
and others starring in this romantic flick.
Vaada Poda...
Vocals: Karthik
Lyrics: Na.Muthukumar
Just when you brace yourself for some
aggressive sounds from guitars, this song
surprises you with its underplayed ‘rock’
effect. A neat song on a simple Natabairavi
raga scale, this could find a place on
‘Friendship Day’ requests.
En Nenjile...
Vocals: Sumesh Babu,
Saranya Easwaran

Built on a simple Karaharapriya scale (reminds you
a tad of ‘June Ponaal’) this dreamy duet
is differently structured in terms of percussive arrangements.
Very soft charanams with only keyboard and violins
make for easy listening.
Piranthom...
Vocals: Malgudi
Shubha
Lyrics: Na.Muthukumar
A rather severe arrangement of Shanmukapriya raga
notes, it does impart the right kind of mood to this
song which hovers between sorrow and hope. Brooding
notes from the flute and strings add small sparkles
here. Could make it to the charts if filmed well.
Nadanthal...
Vocals: Arun
Prabhakar, Harish Kumar, Siddharth
Lyrics: Manikai
Though there is nothing that makes this song stand
out from many such others doing the rounds, the cheery
rap bit adds a bit of ‘dum’ to it.
Nammai
Thaandi...
Vocals: Prasanna, Chinmayee
Lyrics: Yugabharathi
Oh well, Oh well, Anandabairavi raga in a ‘jeans
clad’ avatar here! Quite a natty number where
the deft use of ‘ga’ and ‘ma’
swaras give it a sharp western touch. With alternating
low and high notes that describe the tumbling emotions,
this song flits around like a butterfly. Interesting
percussive arrangement too. Sure to hit the charts
Chennapattanathule...
Vocals: Ceylon Jegani
Lyrics: Snehan
The breezy prelude is a sure indication of what is
to follow- a desi titillation number in a folksy style.
Can be relished for its amusing use of the Chalanata
raga here.
Piranthom...
Theme song
Instrumental: Aah, here we are able to savour the
raga better with the violins and flute. More live
instruments could have enriched it.
Verdict:
Though the limited number of orchestral instruments
gives this album a slightly stiff and edgy feel, some
really ordered thinking has gone into framing the
songs. Certainly an album to listen and ponder over.
Wish the film is equally tightly knit. |
