The Suprabaadham start to the title song clearly masks an uptempo, catchy track, effortlessly sung by Ranjit and Sri Charan. Are idhi asalu has a kind of energy that is...

Vastadu Naa Raju (Music review), Telugu – Mani Sharma
Hello Everybody opens with music strangely similar to Band Baaja Baaraat’s Tarkeebein, but goes on to become a standard, catchy hero-intro song. Padha padha goes massy, and even its hook...

Reppapaatu ee kshanam starts off great, but the coarse rap’ish pieces jar; still, Naresh Iyer’s main portions and some innovative interludes make this track a good listen. Javed Ali’s solo,...

Adigora choodu is all glitzy packaging with little tune or flow, while Thaman gets everything right in Vaishali and Silaka, a couple of sophisticated kuthu numbers, as he hits all...

Sada siva starts the soundtrack nicely – a simple, hummable tune backed by ambient, world music’ish backgrounds. Ranjith aces Taxi, an underground’ish track with groovy sounds, while Sunday Monday‘s highlight...

Remo’s Yuvakula is at best a poorly-sung, noisy mess. But the composer works up a catchy, bombastic techno-folk number in Eyi raja, while Karthik and Suchitra’s Nijamena is what Manisharma’s...
