Inbam Ethirilae...An oddball track that seems outdated, cocktail of Indian & western music...
Indihu Inidhu... Is an poor rehash of yesteryear song from Kallori
Vazhkai Oru.... passable melody, with simplistic tune. A pedestrian track .
Ennangal Vaananoki...Kalyani’s voice is pleasant with predictable simple tune in backgrounds is lilting
Kodi Kanam Kannil... Naresh Iyer voice is letdown by escalating music in the background. Repetitive phrases.
Kallori Thayeh... finally Mickey.J.Meyer( the man behind this album) tries to captivate the listeners with end of happy days. Outdated tunes, orchestrated mildly
An average album by Mickey.J.Meyer , mostly relied upon western flavor…
The combination of AR Rah man and Director Shankar has brought us some unforgettable music over the years…Jeans still continues to be Sangria of them.
So the Magnanimous production house has it here ENDIRAN. Well! The album fits us with all the expectation we could possibly have. Has all the elements of a big budgeted, Sci –fi and solicitation of Super Star. The album that comes from the fabrication unit of AR and his team composes mainly of modern day revitalized music tracks with ethnic touch, grandeur and the magic of the Mozart as well.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Arima Arima by msb.bhuvanesh
Pudhiya Manidha :A Peak introduction about Endiran by the maestro& Khatija Rahman. The Guinness holder’s vocals come late and preempt to create something that is path breaking in welcoming a new avatar.
Arima (def-male lion) a powerful intro/ mass solicitation, with instruments playing thunderous sounds in the background. AR Rah man has opted for Sadhana Sargam to give the feel through seemingly. Hariharan on vocals is exhilarating. A cornucopia of fascinating sounds… all working in brilliant sync. Chorus singers, Bass guitar progressions& Band players add to the grandeur.
Kadal Anukkal is nothing short of a pulsating celebration of sorts – that punchy science words adds cryptic. Vijay Prakash, Shreya Ghoshal’s superb vocals add to the delight, along with pulsating guitar phrases all alluring the listeners with foot tapping tune. (Note the Spanish style interlude, string progressions that blends well within,)
Irumbile Oru Idhaiyam: This musical piece is simply divine .A sweet whopper! Simple and poignant tune from AR Rah man that is surprising. Lovely melody with marvelous arrangements, unfortunately the track is short lived A breezy one.
Boom Boom Robo Da :YoGi B, the name I believe will soon be associated with ARR’s composition. The rapper is the real highlight. Techno style track .Music is a bit frivolous, but has enough of Rahman’s touches stand apart and enthrall.Tanglish lyrics by Kaarki add to the funky , vibrant, stylish and youthful no.
Chitti Dance Showcase: More: A New-age fusion A mere musical piece that blends classic instruments and vocals fused in proportions with heavy strings, too dense in the backgrounds as it progresses. with symphony orchestration in between. A zingy package.
Kilimanjaro :Starts of with African ,( Tanzania ) vocals . Instantly brought to life by some beautiful vocals by Javed Ali . Musically, the arrangements rest on a semi-classical /folkish platform with a range of classical instruments & hard drums, all meticulously crafted for a soothing and pepped up experience.
A fascinating and diverse soundtrack that deserves applaud and appreciation. Has most varied folksy and interesting soundtrack and most importantly lives up to our anticipation. Thematic music that will be best seen not heard. A musical marvel
Single song Review:
I have to say that this song will 100% make it into the list of the most heartfelt Tamil love songs! It’s just so beautiful. The interludes, the romance, lead pair vocals and the pain of distance& the subtle differences in their feelings, overflowing relentlessly. Simply divine.
Astonishing lyrics by N. Muthukumar is so creative that makes you want to listen to this number again and again.
A romantic song that captures the love story before the pre- independence era…
Starts with Hindustani /semi carnatic style humming that occur at regular intervals and gains momentum with alluring lyrics (please read the whole lyrics in English/Tamil with translation).
GV Prakash (Music Director) teases us in between with English lyrics with minimal BGM and gains up immediately that adds splendor.
G.V Prakash has to be given credits for making this song hummable with simple poignant tune that perfectly captures the feel and mood. With Hindustani style musical arrangement (tabla, flute pieces and soft keys) all through… for rightful reasons, is appealing and adds to the grandeur.

Vaarththai thevaiyillai vaazhum kaalamvarai

Yaar endru ariyaamal
perkkooda theriyaamal ivanoadu oru sondham uruvaanathen Without knowing who it is, without even knowing the name, you become his very own relation/kindred?
