Tollywood’s favourite director Puri Jagganath’s next directorial venture is ‘Chirutha’ produced by C Aswanidutt under the banner of Vyjayanti Movies. This film has already created lot of buzz given that its launching Ram Charan Teja, son of the Megastar Dr. Chiranjeevi. Manisharma who is ruling the roost with his compositions composes the soundtrack.

Tippu opens the album with ‘Yamaho Yama’, supposedly a dance track where he modulates his tone to suit the verve. Manisharma employs violin, keyboard, drums and electric guitar to make this track sound groovier. This Sirivennela penned number has interesting mix of symphony and massy tunes going together.

‘Love You Raa’, a duet by Deepu and Rita has country flavor running through it and throaty rendition by the singers just adds to its feel. Mani Sharma couples the song with bass guitar, drumbeat, electric guitar and keyboard. This youthful symphonic melody also has western feel to its effect. Ramajogaiah Sastry pens down the lyrics.

‘Yenduko’ is a run of the mill track that holds nothing unique. Manisharma loads it with acoustic and electric guitar strums coupled with drums and other regular instruments. With nothing much to hold in its account, the only USP of this track is Karunya’s scintillating rendition. Bhaskarabhatla scripts down the lyrics.

‘Chamka Chamka’ is supposedly the title track and is hummed by Ranjith and Gita Madhuri. It has a well blend brew of both Indian classical and western music coupled with sassy drumbeats to give it a mass flavor. Manisharma sticks to his usual bass guitar in nearly all the songs, apart from keyboard. Viswa writes the lines for this track.

‘Maro Maro’ is another high-speed track crooned by Rahul Nambiar and Suchitra. Manisharma endows newness by experimenting with music where he employs trumpets, shehnai, drumbeat, keyboard and jalatarangini coupled with western tunes. Bhaskarabhatla pens the lyrics for this track.

‘Kanniti’ is a tear-jerking song rendered by Mallikarjun with great meticulousness. She succeeds in cramming the song with grief that overwhelms the listeners. Manisharma aptly captivates the sorrowful mood with his stirring music.

Another routine number to churn out is ‘Ivvale’ impregnated with western tunes and lyrics. Rendered by KK and Sunitha in complete sync, this song has dull appeal. This Kandikonda written track surely doesn’t fire.

‘Innala’ is another bit song to find its place in the album. Rendered by Usha, this track sounds similar to the earlier bit track. Manisharma spins out similar kind of music for this song as well.

The music for this important film is somewhat tepid. Manisharma tunes out melodious, soulful as well as massy tracks to add to the appeal of the film. In a nutshell, decent efforts from Manisharma’s troupe.
