Music: Mani Sharma Lyrics: Chandrabose Singers: K.K, S P B Charan, Sujatha, Sivardhini, Karthik, Hanumantha Rao, Harini, Pawan Kalyan
The cumulative rating of Mani Sharma has always shown an upward swing. The ace music director has little to prove when it comes to composing some landmark music. Gudumba Shankar is also out there to emphasis this point. There is melody but are the songs likely to become popular in the charts?
‘Le Le Le Le’ rendered in the enthusiastic voice of KK, is a fabulous start. The composition has a style, Manisharma’s instrumentaion is undaunted, and Chandrabose lyrics have a wonderful mode. KK is convincing with his part of act.
‘Chigurakuchatu Chilaka’ by S P B Charan and Sujatha feel good after a couple of listening. The song has nothing new to offer but good tune and lyrics helps to hold it in place. S P B Charan and Sujatha once again prove that they are effective and reliable. ‘Chilakamma Mukkuki’ is zippy enough for the unfussy listener. But the song doesn’t go over the territory because of the over-used tune and redundant lyrics. It stirs with Carnatic style but soon gives away to drumbeat rhythm, making it sound uncanny. If there is something positive to be said about the number then it is the singing by Sivardhini, Karthik and Hanumantha Rao.
‘Chitti Nadumune’ is a temporary swinger. With the fusion of unbalanced rap and melody, the number doesn’t strike. This one is nothing novel and is barely catchy with Mallikharjuna Rao and Premji doing a good job.
‘Emantaro’ is the one that sets the chord right for the album. It has the strength of Mani Sharma’s instrumentation and the goodness of the voices of S P B Charan and Harini. The simple and striking tune has a fine heart felt rendition.
‘ Killi Killi’ begins with Pawan Kalyan doing some lines himself. The song is no stranger to its genre. Mallikharjuna Rao taking over from Pawan Kalyan does the remaining part with fine etiquette. Mani Sharma proves effective.
The album doesn’t offer great shakes. The run-of the-mill tracks won’t go heady as a ready reckoner.
