Pudikkum, Angry Bird and Sayang Ku offer progressively degrading lyrics – it’s only Thaman’s backgrounds that hold the songs together. Mohit Chauhan sings Angry Bird with terrible diction, while in Pudikkum, Thaman keeps it interesting with a veena and nadaswaram layer. Desi girl is typical Thaman kuthu. Oh Madhu would have Crazy Mohan in tears of joy, given the song goes ‘Oh Maadhu’. It’s a lovely tune, though – a digitized Anirudh (Vijay Prakash’s reprise is better) delivers the melody well, propped by vocalized nadaswaram, a reggae-ish backdrop and a peekaboo thavil! Standard Thaman soundtrack, with the occasionally enjoyable sound.
