Much of Vachinde‘s buoyancy is from Madhu Priya’s fantastic singing. Shakthikanth’s folksy backgrounds include lovely dollops of sitar and harmonium. Edo jaruguthondi is equally spirited, with its easy-on-the-ears dance-pop sound, and involved singing by Renuka and Aravind Srinivas. There’s a generous dose of A R Rahman in Hey pillagaada, and Shakthikanth’s melody, on a jaunty folk rhythm, is excellent. Hemachandra does well in Oosupodu, with a pensive, engaging melody, though the title song is largely standard-issue. In Hey Mister, riding on Martin’s sax and Godfrey Emmanuel’s guitar, Deepak delivers a cool, catchy song. Shakthikanth delivers mighty well for Sekhar Kammula!

PS: As Karthikeya Sharma mentions in the comments, Hey Pillagada seems to be a creatively rehashed version of Malliswari’s , composed by S. Rajeswara Rao.
