Bijibal gets both the Mappila paattu style songs wonderfully—and rhythmically, obviously—right. Alphons Joseph’s vocals add a distinctive touch to Maanaanivalude, while Meghamani, though sounding rather familiar and templatized, is foot-tapping nonetheless, with fantastic singing by Najeem Arshad. Vineeth Sreenivasan and Sangeetha Sreekanth make the Malayali-Punjabi sound of Ullathu chonnaal a lot more tolerable. Olivile kalikal sounds like a song from another soundtrack and makes an uncomfortable medley of non-descript pop forms and half-hearted theyyam sound. The soundtrack’s easy highlight is Ottathoval, where Ganesh Sundaram and Roopa Revathi breathe life into the possibly Panthuvarali raaga based haunting melody! Prolific@Bijibal, in Rajamma@Yahoo!
