The Mahashay Paean (Bham Bham Siva) starts off with Murali Gopi’s frenzied devotional call and blazes off in a grand mix of pulsating rhythms, a chant-like structure, and Sivaranjani raaga. Murali’s diction strikes an odd note, though. Naiharva (credited as Nayee harvaa) is the complete opposite, with an ambient, minimal sound – apt for Kabir’s iconic Nirguni bhajan. Bindu handles the somber piece with her vocals beautifully. And despite the occasional, energetic electric guitar, Nethi nethi—in both versions, by Murali Gopi and Vijay Yesudas—plays out faithfully like an incantation. Gopi Sundar’s soundtrack for Tiyaan strictly sticks to the film’s theme.
