Shiva (Thiruda Thirudi) and
starring Ameer, Madhumita, Swathi,
Ponvannan, Vincent Asokan, and
Kanjakaruppu along with others,
this film has Yuvan Shankar

There are three songs, two instrumental

penned the lyrics. Ameer turns
actor here.

Heavy Metal? Electronica? Rap?
You get to hear a bit of everything
in this outlandish number by
Yuvan. A bit harsh on the ears,
but surprisingly you get to
like it after you listen to
it a couple of times. With impressive
backing visuals this song could
stand up!
A new attempt.

A
song that that captures the sudden flowering
of softer sentiments in the heart of a hard-hearted
man. The varied feelings rocking him are
suitably portrayed by the delicate sarangi
sounds and the lovely tentative sounding
percussive rhythms. Charukesi raga is indicated,
especially in the flute bit that goes ’rii-ma-ga-sa;
ri-pa; dha-ma-ga-ri---‘. Yuvan sings
with a feel for the lyrics, with the Ustad
doing the humming.
Yogi Theme in Saarangi---
This piece also follows the earlier song
basically, but look how subtly Yuvan has
varied the percussive rhythms and the strings.
The quirky saarangi notes are so poignant.
Tugs at your heart, this.

Oh, golly! This is a percussion lover’s
delight. What starts off like a preamble
to a ‘therukkootthu’ takes off
at a different level from the lines ‘yogyan
yogi naaney’ , reminding you of the
classic street theatre bit from ‘Navarathri’
starring Sivaji Ganesan and Savithri! Certainly
a bit of a parody, its appeal could well
lie in relevant picturization. The fine
use of native percussion instruments deserves
mention.
Yogi
Theme Music---
Though this piece reminds you of ‘vaarai
nee vaarai’, the old Aberi raga hit,
it is still a neat jaunty number. Pleasant
use of strings and flute.
Yogi
Yogi Thaan-Version- 2---
Well, isn’t song no.1 ear-splitting
enough? Do you really need this?
Verdict:
Yuvan’s penchant for percussive effects
is evident again in this album. Funnily,
this album seems to laugh at itself in places—odd!
After Aegan, Yuvan springs a similar surprise
on us here. It all depends on how Ameer
is going to translate it on screen.
