Tamil OST

Adada is pedestrian. Ditto for America endralum – painfully banal, while Kaadhalukku, while being somewhat rhythmic, is again rather mundane. Senthamizh pesum is appallingly silly – in the name of...

With sparks of Rahman in Enge nee – harmonious chorus with neat use of guitar in the backgrounds; and shades of Harris Jeyaraj in Kaatrodu solli – the sans-music, male...

With seductive dialogs and a slow, alluring tune, Anaikkindra thaagam works really well, more so due to Bombay Jayashree’s fab vocals. Suthudhey too has a very neat retro sound, but...

Needhaana needhaana is a pleasant and enjoyable hip-hop mix but Raamanaa porandhaalum, while using a hip-hop template again, is pedestrian. Jyothsana and Srinivas’ impressive vocals work well in the slow...

Madhusri’s Tamil mauling notwithstanding, the lilting tune and backgrounds make Eppo nee thoroughly enjoyable. Lucky Ali sings Gutkha lakkadi, a track usually marked for Jassi Gift – completely mindless but...
