Sarigamapadanee works more for SPB’s vocal play than for its conventional tune, but the sonorous, lullaby-like Laali paaduthunnadi is absolutely brilliant! SPB’s vocals are fabulous, while Geetha Madhuri’s intentionally mod voice helps as a contrast. Govinda‘s simple, lilting tune is its strength, while Yem sakkagunnavro and Balamani are rhythmic and foot-tapping; the latter works a shade better, thanks to Karthik. Sannayi mogindi and Deshamante both use conventional filmy templates, but the former, with its traditional base is very listenable. Nigraham, despite zingy orchestration, falls short, but Entha entha works for its conversational style. Very tuneful, very Telugu and very Keeravani!
