The title song is completely overloaded with zany sounds and excessive vocalizing effects that it becomes hard to even follow the flow, while Naveen Madhav’s Ellamey is a fairly decent...

Music review: Laadam (Tamil – Dharan)
Siru thodudhalile is pure, Dharan-style, free flowing goodness – a lovely melody with an unconventional structure and splendid vocals by Bombay Jayashree and Haricharan. Suchitra’s Atlantic oceanukku has absurd Tanglish,...
Continue reading...Music review: Aanandha Thaandavam (Tamil – GV Prakash Kumar)
With a breezy, instantly engaging tune, Kallil aadum is a complete winner – Benny and Shwetha sound awesome. Megam pola’s gloomy outlook is new to Tamil films, but within the...
Continue reading...Music review: Silambaattam (Tamil – Yuvan Shankar Raja)
Nalandhaana’s kuthu-style retuned, bawdily rewritten version is just incredibly atrocious – Simbu’s vocals adding considerably to the annoyance. But, despite Ilayaraja’s strained singing, Machan machan is endearing in its simple...

Echoing Thozhiya from Kaadhalil Vizhundhen, the pleasant title song is impressive and sing-along’ish while Natta nadu is a trademark Vijay Antony number – interesting thavil-based backgrounds, simple tune and good...

Aegan is the perfect example of an entire crew pandering brazenly to a star, like many other star crews from Tamil Nadu. So, you have a soundtrack which forgets to...
Continue reading...Music review: Seval (Tamil – GV Prakash Kumar)
Strongly reminiscent of Rahman’s rustic scores, Namma ooru and Thaayaramma are strictly temlplatized, with only the engaging, gossippy lyrics making an impact. Odamarathu mullapola is no better – that stock,...
Continue reading...Music review: Vennila Kabadi Kuzhu (Tamil – Selvaganesh)
Karthik and Chinmayi exhibit amazing vocals in the mellifluous Lesa, marred only by the slightly incongruent chorus that punctuates the melody. Haricharan’s solo, Uyiril yedho too is composed beautifully –...
Continue reading...Music review: Abhiyum Naanum (Tamil – Vidyasagar)
Azhagiya kili plays with pathos in a mockingly grand set-up and just sounds weird! Vaa vaa is a Sivaji-styled melody with Madhu Balakrishnan’s vocals that gathers steam mid-way, elegantly –...
