| G.V.Prakash’s
medley mash: Polladhavan music review |
|
| Dhanush
may not be the luckiest of actors in terms of movies but he
has been the luckiest in terms of the music score in his movies.
His movies always boast of a rich music score, and when he
is paired with G.V.Prakash for the first time the expectation
quadruple. And G.V.Prakash comes after completing his hat
trick, as all of his three compositions Veyil, Oram po and
Kreedom were big musical hits. But this album cannot just
be boasted by G.V.Prakash alone as two songs have not been
tuned by the young music director but by Yogi B and Dina.

So
many thoughts go through our mind when we lay hands on the movie’s
CD and let’s see whether this new combination impresses
or not.
Minnal
Koothadum
The opening of this song makes us take a quick peek at the credentials
to see whether the music is scored by G.V or Harris as it does
sound similar to Harris’ style. The use of simple instruments
without overdoing it is something, which Harris has mastered over
years but this three film old protégé has stepped
on this and has come out with flying colors. The song is a slow
and arousing number, which is sure to lure the music lovers. Bombay
Jeyashree and Karthik’s vocal mesmerizes you even further.
After continuous listening, the song is sure to become an anthem
among the youth.
All set for a hit!

Middle Eastern music is slowly becoming the latest trend and
all the music directors are starting to use this. The latest
to join the bandwagon is G.V.Prakash. This song overall is
just in the average league but G.V. gets brownie points for
his innovative usage of instruments in the middle and the
decision of choosing Benni and Sunitha Sarathy to be in front
of the mike. On the whole a good attempt.
Definitely not bad |

It is inevitable for Dhanush’s movies to have a kuthu song
and this peppy song tuned by Dina is sure to lure the masses. The
catchy lyrics and vocals by Shankar Mahadevan are the highlights
of the song. Shankar Mahadevan enjoys his work and woos us all with
his lively rendition. The masses will surely lap up this song and
expect the song to be played over and over again in the music channels.
Dina has proved once again what his specialty is.
All set for a hit!

Remix of yet another yesteryear classic. S.P.Balasubramaniam
who sung the old version comes back for this remix version
along with the hot and famous Yogi B and Sunitha Sarathy.
It’s Yogi B’s first attempt in remixing in films
and he does not disappoint. The English lyrics alongside Kannadasan’s
original work does have its takers but many will probably
stick to the original, as the latest version is a little hard
on one’s ears. Still the song will surely be a dance
floor favorite.
Good genuine efforts.

Thangam
This is the item song, which is also one of the main necessities of
a Dhanush’s movie. This fast number has some interesting lyrics
by Yugabarathy. Suchitra’s voice carries this peppy masala song
with considerable ease but sometimes the music tends to venture into
already known places. The song is sure to be a mass favorite and will
probably make a few people dance in the theatres. Continuous hearing
will propel the listeners to get addicted to the song even more, a
winner for G.V.Prakash.
Will need multiple hearings to grow on you.
Overall, the music of Polladhavan is all what can be expected from
a Dhanush’s movie. Dhanush’s fans surely won’t be
disappointed and G.V.Prakash, along with Yogi B and Dina brings us
an album, which has something for everybody. A good buy.
