Vijay Yesudas gets something different in the rousing Yetellina aranyame; James’s backgrounds are top class! Ikkadinundi is a fantastic melody on the lines of Kangal irandaal, perhaps because of the peekaboo Reetigowlai base – shades below that classic, but still a wonderful listen! Addirabanna works as a raucous song, thanks to the engaging rhythm, while Ekbaar esukora carries a breathless energy along with a slightly modern, appealing sound! Thayya thayya is the only song that fails to connect, partly because of a rambling tune. James Vasanthan’s Telugu debut is a good mix of his trademark style and very-Andhra’ish film music!
