Jigi bigi is entirely predictable, but sounds sweet enough, with catchy phrases, while the conversational Jaama chettuki is meant for the screen. Nandaamaya is a curious combination of a likeable...

Vedam (Music review), Telugu – MM Keeravani
The angst-ridden Now or never works brilliantly with its booming sound and remarkable guitar accompaniments, while the very folk’ish and stage-song like Egiripote enta baguntundhi is singer Sunita’s show all...
Continue reading...Kothimuka (Music review), Telugu – Manisharma
Manisharma’s new soundtrack in Telugu, Kothimuka, is yet another NW1W material. The remix of the evergreen NT Rama rao song, Oohala gudsa gusa lade is pretty sad, and uses the...

Sunidhi Chauhan puts up her grungy best in Kedigadu, even as Sandeep’s backgrounds pack a phenomenal punch, particularly the imaginative interludes, while Arijit Singh and Neha Kakkar ace the sweet,...

Vellake vellake is generously inspired by the Sean Paul sound, but along with the Nandunni chorus, this is indeed a funky track, while Nee kallalo sounds so very, very like...
