Trust Imaan to come up with utter nonsense – that Raja rajaadhi rajan (Agni Natchathiram) remix is an absolute mess and is completely unwarranted. To attempt a remix of a...

Gandhi nottu has Kailash Kher singing uncomfortably a ridiculous bhangra-styled tune while Indha payanathil is straight out of an ad jingle, just that it’s dragged beyond its lifespan! Kannamoochi turns...

After loyally sticking to Pravin Mani, director Sanjay Ram moves on to Peter John in Poova Thalaya. Maipoosum is a reasonably engaging folk melody but with predictable musical phrases while...

‘Speed of Sound’ contribute to the trite bhangra version of the title song and an even more boring Tera woh pyar. Sameeruddin’s version of the title song is considerably better...
