Kandupidithen and Inge‘s lyrics decide the tune and they barely pass muster. Remember Duet? Chitra’s Enna tholaithai does an encore! Hitler penne and Iyakkunare hold decent tunes but bland orchestration...

Thiruttu Payale

Thaiyatha’s Charukesi is tantalizing, though Sadhana seems stressed in the higher pitches. There’s Aqua-sound in Poi sollaporen, coupled with some reasonably interesting lyrics, but the song hardly registers. Thippamma’s middle...

Paarijaatham

Bhagyaraj chooses debutant Dharan for his comeback starring his daughter! Ennil has adequately mod orchestration with an average tune. The vocals leave a lot to be desired though. Things improve...
