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...

Music review: Sura (Tamil – Manisharma)
Naan nadanthal works only because of its appealing, stylish rhythms even though the lyrics are beyond mundane. Siragadikkum nilavu is archaic Manisharma material, with rudimentary catchiness, while Thamizhan veera thamizhan...
Continue reading...Music review: Maanja Velu (Tamil – Manisharma)
Both the versions of the title song are surprisingly good – the chirpy retro version in particular has the right dose of spoofy fun and is sung delightfully by Mukesh...
Continue reading...Music review: Varudu (Telugu – Manisharma)
Saare jahaan goes overboard on its techno sound that is both outdated and annoying. Aidhurojula pelli, with a host of voices and a calculated mish-mash makes for an interesting listen,...

When you think the man is down and out, Manisharma bounces back and how! Kadile padam carries the confidence and poise of a vintage Ilayaraja song, complete with superbly crafted...

Athiri puthiri is phenomenally outmoded hip-hop styled backgrounds with a silly tune bordering on middle eastern, while the zingy Doctor mappillai okaya, beyond the zing and some interesting interludes, is...

Madhurayathana is a Ilayaraja styled 80s number – sounds like a neat spin off either Dharmavathi or Hamsanaaadham. Malli malli is enjoyable too – simple and enjoyable tune; while the...
Continue reading...Music review: Thoranai (Tamil – Manisharma)
Echoing Thiruvilayaadal Aarambam’s Madura jilla, Manjasela mandakini is catchy time-pass, while Janani and Vijay Yesudas’ Pattucha is dreary and seeped in Manisharma’s Telugu styled structure. Pelican paravaigal is fairly rhythmic...
