Rajahamsa (Music review), Kannada – Joshua Sridhar
Janaganamana‘s easily catchy pop sound is significantly spruced up by Raghu Dixit’s endearing vocals. Rapper Chandan Shetty’s digitally processed version does a darn good job in Baramma baare‘s electro swing...

Kaatril eri‘s bubblegum-pop is droning, but is catchy nonetheless. Man meedhu is totally Rajesh Krishnan’s show! Rajesh sounds like a younger SPB and holds Joshua’s engaging and lilting melody and...
