Uchi malai kaadu has an energetic folk outlook, and the interludes makes adept use of world music too; Both versions, by Magizhini Manimaaran, and Vaikom Vijaylakshmi are good. Oororam‘s rustic sound is perfunctory, both versions, by Jayamurthy and Anitha Karthikeyan, while Ettu thikkum has the necessary verve to egg the hero to rebel. The soundtrack belongs to Onna pathi and Uyire, though. The former maintains its serene sound all through so beautifully and Haricharan is fantastic, singing it. Madhu Iyer is impeccable in the latter, breathing life into the gorgeously tuned melody! After Mahabalipuram, another soundtrack where composer K impresses.
