Review: The album starts with a pleasant track, Adada Kadhal Vanthathe. Though it is a medium-paced song with standard beats, singer Karthik brings the tune to life and adds colour to the lyrics penned by Na Muthukumar. The music composer has used the flute generously in the interludes that also feature a humming bit by a female vocalist.
For a fast, foot-tapping number, listen to Enga Kaattula Mazhai. A brisk track, the interludes have classical influences with tabla and flute bits. This number, sung by Suchith Suresan, Mukesh and Sukanya, has the run-of-the-mill strategy of introducing female vocals in the interludes to slow down the speed of the song. The composer also brings in Punjabi beats fused with fast drum beats and a piano bit to show some diversity.
Been a while since we heard a woman-bashing song? Here is Ava Oru Loosu, sung by Gana Bala. The song, written by Brahma, is about how the girl has cheated the boy and has moved on in life. How many more of these ���gems��� will Tamil cinema come up with? We assume this one would be a typical TASMAC song. An uninspiring, flat track. Next in line is Oar Muththam Enna Vilai, the pick in this album. A mellifluous song, this one is a duet sung by Haricharan and Sukanya. With romantic lyrics, saxophone and flute bits in the interludes and a smooth flowing tune, the song is quite enjoyable.
Coke-ku Pizzava gets you curious about what this song will be about. It starts with high-voltage beats and suddenly transforms into a kuthu number. This one is a funny number and it highlights the difference between western and Indian cultures through names of food items, language and occupations of the people. The lyrics by Thamizhan Illango are amusing and Ranjith has done justice to the track with his casual approach. The song has a fun feel to it thanks to the interesting chorus and the dialogues that come in between the paragraphs.
