Review Overview

Prayer
Unnai Kooda Naal Madhal
Avala Nambithan
Mascara Pottu
Ulagam Nee

A middling comeback from VIjay Antony!

Vijay Antony makes a forgettable comeback in an album replete with lifeless, old-fashioned tunes saved by two good numbers in Ulagam Nee and Avala Nambithan.

Cast: Vijay Antony, Aksha Pardasany

Music: Vijay Antony

Label: Saregama

Direction: NV Nirmal Kumar

 

  • Prayer – With lyrics from the Holy Quran and vocals by Yusuf, the song gels adequately with the film’s theme. But, the tune doesn’t make an impact and looks outdated
  • Unnai Kanda Naal Mudhal – Except for Supriya Joshi’s vocals, nothing works well in the song’s favor. A lifeless tune and a middling effort from the composer 
  • Avala Nambithan – Gaana Bala’s enjoyable lyrics, a quirky tune loosely adapted from MSV’s Sambo Siva Sambo and the vocals of Mahalingam make this foot-tapping number an assured hit
  • Mascara Pottu – An old-fashioned tune nearly saved by the vocals of the composer himself and Supriya. A passable number at best
  • Ulagam Nee –  Pitch-perfect singing by Prabhu Pandala and a pulsating tune make for a good listen. Our recommended track of the album
