Composer Vidyasagar's Bollywood debut is commendable.
Maruth and Sudhakar Sharma have jotted the lyrics. Of the two, Sharma does a better job.
`Kal Tak Main... ', the first song, has been sung well by Shaan.
`Thodisi Shararat... ' is an even better melody, sung by Sonu and Sadhana.
This love number, with a good background score, reveals the composer's class.
`Do Dil Humne Tumko... ' and `Hum Aur Tum... ', solos with the same tune, by Sadhana and Hariharan, are the best of the album. Hariharan deserves a firm handshake for infusing pizzazz into the song. Sonu and Hema Sardesai follow a `Mangta hai kya' (`Rangeela') style in singing `Hey Chamma... '. `Karo Karo Salam Karo... ' is a typical street dance number, sung by Kay Kay.
The melody in the background has a combination of drums, and this adds colour to the entire song.
`Barah Se Class Nahin... ' is avoidable.
Gowreeshankaram
(Sivaranjini Audios: Rs. 50)
Praises the glory of the deities of Ernakulam temple.
A few famous hymns have also been included to make the album more appealing.
The lyrics by R. K. Damodaran and P. C. Aravindan have been set to tune by Suresh Menon.
`Ernakulathappan Suprabhatham... ', recited by Madhu Balakrishnan, finds its complete version on Side A.
Side B begins with `Nandi Vahana... ', sung by Jayachandran in a low, yet deep, tone. `Ernakulathoru... ' too features the same singer. `Shambo Mahadeva', sung by Biju Narayanan, is a traditional `Rishinagakulathappan' devotional song. `Nagendra Haraya... ' is a `Shiva Panchakshara Keerthanam', sung by Ganesh Sundaram on a note of high devotion. Madhu Balakrishnan features in the title song of the album too.
