MCA Audio Review

Movie:              MCA ( మిడిల్ క్లాస్ అబ్బాయి )
Producer(s):    Raju, Shirish, Laxman
Cast:                 Nani, Sai Pallavi, Bhumika
Direction:         Sriram Venu
Music:              Devi Sri Prasad

Nani probably is the only Telugu Hero who is running on a high success note. Most of this recent films did very well at box office and also few of them are critically acclaimed. His latest project paired up with Dil Raju's team obviously has created a lot of buzz among the Telugu audience. Directed by Venu Sriram, this movie casts Bhoomika and Fida fame Sai Pallavi. Venu Sriram's earlier movie was with Sidharth, Oh my friend. After that he didnt have any movie, and Dil Raju producing a movie with him is something to note. This movie is slated to be released on 21st December, followed by Nagarjuna's Hello starring Akhil. So this movie has to be really good to sustain at box office. 

DSP was roped to compose music for this movie. This album consists of 5 songs. Srimani gets major pie writing 3 songs and the rest shared by Chandrabose and Balaji. Singers are standard from DSP's team, making no mistake, Sagar sings one song. Shravana Bhargavi gets to sing probably after a long break. Lets see how the songs are from DSP.

1. MCA 
Singer(s): Nakash Aziz
Lyrics: Chandrabose


The album starts with title song, Chandrabose starts the song with explanation of what Middle class abbayilu is about. Its a routine fare for DSP. Nakash Aziz's expressions could have been better at times. These kind of songs demands expressions, but Naakash just goes flat. Chandrabose brought in Middle class families issues rather than middle class abbayila issues. Few things what he wrote doesn't fit for abbayilu, its for families. As usual he was more on praasa. The song doesn't impress on first hearing, as DSP goes on template mode. Naakash doesn't provide any add on to the song. So probably this will be impress when seen on the screen or repeated hearings. 


2. KOTTHAGA KOTTHAGA 
Singer(s)s: Sagar & Priya Hemesh
Lyrics: Srimani


Sagar needs to get a song in DSP's albums. Seems like DSP again goes out in template mode, takes one out of his standard templates and provides variations to make this song. Kshanam oka nimisham, nimisham ganta is beaten phrase that Srimani uses. Interludes are better in this song. The song if a little bit slower tempo would have been more pleasant I guess. Somehow this song too doesnt impress on first hearing. Probably the already heard feeling might be the reason. Sagar and Priya did their job. Priya could have focused on pronunciation a little bit more.


3. FAMILY PARTY 
Singer(s): Jaspreet Jasz 
Lyrics:  Srimani


Its a family party song, also seems like out of DSP's standard routine fare of song. Srimani tries to provide situational lyrics which describes the scenes in the movie. Something to do with party at home in replacement of going outside and partying. Not sure whats the song about, but the words gets lost in singing and tune. Ille was sounding like Illai.. The beats create energy for sure. 


4. YEMAINDHO TELIYADU NAAKU
Singer(s)s: Karthik & Deepika V
Lyrics:  Srimani

Srimani like DSP tries to reuse standard phrases of expressing love. Peru paata, prati varsham chinuku, Deepika doesn't sound like a right combination to Karthik. DSP who tries to provide melody in his albums struggles to get the right one so far. The beats accompanying the song intermittently also doesn't suit well. It sounds alien to the song. Except for Karthik, there is nothing much to get from this song. Srimani writes routine song, so is DSP. Deepika was not fit for this song in combination with Karthik. So far its not upto DSP's standards of songs. All appear routine songs including lyrics.


5. YEVANDOI NANI GARU
Singer(s)s: Divya Kumar & Shravana Bhargavi 
Lyrics:  Balaji


Its been a while that Shravana Bhargavi sang in Telugu. Seems like another situational song. Once again played safe by DSP. Singers expressions also doesn't help the song, could have been better. Nothing much to say about this song. As seen in the teasers, Nani is also called as Nani in the movie. So this song goes on Nani obviously. However what is this song about should be seen on the screen. 

Pick(s) of the album: Not sure what to pick, nothing really impresses.

Seems like DSP played safe by providing template songs. Not sure whether the movie didn't demand different tunes or the situations in the movie didn't require different songs. Not the DSP who gives at-least 3 out of 5/6 good songs and rest as routine songs. Here he didn't do that even. Not sure whats the reason, normally he helps the movie with his songs, but probably first time, he needs help from the movie. These songs if movie is hit should get noticed. Hope DSP will be back next movie/year.
