Iddarammayilato - Audio Review

Movie: Iddarammayilatho (Telugu - 2013)
Producer:    Bandla Ganesh
Direction:    Poori Jagannadh
Cast:            Allu Arjun, Amala Paul, Catherine Tresa
Music:          Devi Sri Prasad

Allu arjun's first movie in 2013 is Iddarammayalato, directed by Puri Jagannadh. Both worked togather in 2007 for Desamuduru. Allu Arjun had a decent run at box office with Trivikram Srinivas made Julayi, On contrast Puri is not having a decent run with his last two movies, Cameraman Ganga to Rambabu and Devudu chesina Manushulu bit the dust not being upto the mark movies. Then the movie producer Bandla Ganesh is currently the prime producer working with all Top heros and has a latest hit with Tarak. Obviously the expectations are very high on this movie and the release of this is planned to be with maximum screens. This movie seems like underwent many changes, first with Music Director, Chakri who is thought initially was replaced by DSP. Then Tapsee Pannu was signed as second lead, then replaced by Richa Gangopadhyay and finally Catherine Tresa was finalized as second lead.
DSP-Allu Arju combination was always special. DSP scored music for 1/3 of the movies of Allu Arju and all of them pretty much worked very well. However with changing trends in music and people need to see what this combination is upto. With Bandla Ganesh and Puri Jagannadh at commanding position, we are assured that they dont demand good music as Puri's movies never had consistently great music and with Ganesh's background, he doesnt either.
The total 5 songs ( 1 remix ) sounds good, if music is good, we dont have issues, as we can keep repeating listening to same songs. However if the music is not upto the mark, we have one less song to hear and get a relief. One surprise element in this album is Apache Indian. The Goan, who once was very much popular for his one man army music and rap is almost a forgotten name. For a change DSP brought in Apache for Baba Sehgal, our prayers were answered I guess, but Apache is cool surprise. Need to see what he did in this album. I dont remember he sang any Telugu song till now in his career, which is very surprise how when our Film Industry brought every other Bollywood singer, how come they spared Apache.
Anyway 5 short songs, lets quickly see how DSP/Arjun treated us.
01 - Ganapathi Bappa Moriya
Singer(s): Sooraj Jagan
Lyric(s): Bhaskarabhatla
Starting an album with Song on Ganapathi is always treated as a good sign, but it doesn't happen this time. "Nirvignam kurume deva" was strained and stretched to the core that it is totally a big turn off. Bungee jump was heard as Bajji jump. Sooraj had struggled to sing Telugu. The "Ha Ha" in the middle of the song was way way off. Lately without fusion or sneeking in western music into, no song is made. Seems like Hero's introduction song, as this has some tips on what do with obstacles such as mountain, sea and others, basically what is Ganapathy bappa moria is all about. Totally aimed at youth and fans. Success of this song depends upon them. 
02: Run Run
Singer(s): Apache Indian, Sharmila
Lyrics: Ramajogayya Sastry

If not Baba Sehgal, its Apache, there is no difference songs all sound the same. ఎదురైనా should be pronounced as ద its ఎడురైన. In english,both are written same. This means no one were present at recording. Anyways, what else can Apache sing? Seems like the rap in between is written by Sharmila. Not sure what is this fancy of making songs with these rap song which makes no meaning other than some thing to appeal youth. As rightly said, గజి బిజీ బుర్రలోన సుడోకు puzzle ఉంటాది. Of course this is the puzzle we get when we hear such songs. There are many ways this song can be done better without getting Ayaasam ( as sounded in between the song ). Running makes one get exhausted. Sure people will feel that they need to got to run to win womans heart instead of wasting time on this song.On other hand DSP tried out different to appeal youth and mass in the name of variety all depends on how fans/youth like this song.
03 - Shankara Bharanam Tho
Singer(s): Mano, Suchith Suresh, Ranina
Lyrics: DSP
As the movie backdrop tells, the introduction is done by foreigners, and the movie story says that this is picturized on Brahmanandam. DSP scores a routine song which is presented smoothly by Mano until, DSP let the dogs out  ( kind of music ). And then mixes and matches the song left and right between Mano and Suchith&Co. This song goes up and down as the song progresses.when DSP asks "Do you want some music", we would like to reply back saying why not DSP only if you only can provide some. :)
 
04 - Top Lesi Podi
Singer(s): Sagar, Geeta Madhuri
Lyrics: Bhaskarabhatla
 
Ammayi manasulo abbayi dooresi kita kitale petteste, emaitaadi, manchi beat vastaadi, pichi paata vastaadi.. This is what the words of first line of the song. The chorus made is so different with their fake style and accent, again in the name of the youth. I hate when some one sings with fake accent. However as said in song the good beats didnt come, top lechi poledu, as end result pichi song aithe vachindi. The beats are same old DSP style, the tune is same old same old.

Then Bhaskarbhatla goes with all kinds of comparision all aimed at masses. Sagar is masked by chorus and Geeta Madhuri is different. Purely composed for Allu Arjun's dancing skills and masses, may be some corner for fans. If they enjoy this song makes the mark with them.
05 - Violin
Singer(s): David Simon, Anitha
Lyrics: Viswa, David Simon
  
Complete trade mark tune from DSP who is known for a signature tune in each movie. Glad that he didnt forget what he is capable of. Reminds Ilayaraja type tune. Having said that after the fantastic impressive violin bit rest is business is as usual.The extraa bit end of each "taa" in the name of youth is not very good to listen. Male singer lacks clarity to hear.

Vennello todu avutaa, Varsham lo Needa laaga unta, what kind of imagination it is? Will there be shadow in Rain? Does it mean there is no love existing? Prema anche choopista, means he is going to show the end of the love? Shouldnt the love be endless?  Adding some fancy words doesnt make a song. Not sure what these lyricists are about.

Keeping all these asides, this is a typical trademark song of DSP should be topping charts for a while. Depends upon the how the song goes in the movie.
 
06 - Run Run (Remix)
Singer(s): DSP, Apache Indian
Lyrics: Ramajogayya Sastry

Apache did what he is famous for during the start of the song, his rap, but then DSP with his odd sounding singing messed up the song. It sounded like he is so reckless singing this song with saritical voice, single handedly messed up the song. The beats, chorus and the rap just didnt work at all as they were really running as high paced rap song. DSP should have taken enough care for this song. Totally wasted effort.
Pick(s) of the album: Violin Bit, Run Run ( not remix )
With changing times, music department in movie making has definetely taken back seat. The priorities of film has changed for sure. Most of the film making is targetted towards youth, fans who are major factors for movie collections. So to ensure commercial success of movie, ensuring they are satisfied is a must. These target audience dont understand what a song is all about some sensible lyrics with hidden meaning/message, excellent singing, melodies or fine tunes, good instumentation/orchestration, nice voices that can be heard repeatedly and so on. All they need is some beats they can tap their feet and some catchy phrases to croon. So the movie makers who dont have enough knowledge making movies are just focusing on the target audience to make money and move on. Lyricists are accompanying in this process dancing to the tunes of these movie makers. This is such a sad state the film industry is now. Truth is always bitter.
DSP and Allu Arjun provided the lowest quality album in their combination. They might have met the expectations of youth, fans and movie requirements, but they didnt meet what they are known for, They for sure disappoint the music lovers. The only advantage that DSP has is he is miles ahead compared to other music directors, but if he starts listening to non-value add producers and directors, he will easily catch up with the rest by coming down to their level which he needs to not let it happen.

Thadakha - Audio Review

Movie:         Thadakha(Telugu - 2013)
Producer:    Bellamkonda Suresh
Direction:    Kishore Kumar Pardasani
Cast:            NagaChaitanya, Sunil, Tamanna, Andrea 
Music:          Thaman SS
 
 
Nagachaitanya's latest film directed by Konchem Ishtam Konchem Kashtam fame Kishore kumar Pardasani, stars Sunil, Tamanna and Andrea as co-starts. This film is being produced by Bellamkonda Suresh. This film is said to be remake of Tamil successful film "Vettai" directed by Lingusamy. During Greekuveerudu Audio function, Chaitanya told his fans that 2013 would be a feast with many films lined up. This should be a good start for that statement as the trailers looks fine. With Sunil lending a helping hand and director who was sensible with his earlier film, should make his statement a real.
 
Kishore Kumar proved with his earlier film that he has a very good music taste as that film had tremendously fantastic songs composed by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy, songs written by Sirivennela were feast to listen. However this movie having Thaman is showing that the director deviated from his benchmark by providing a different music. This movie's lyrics department was handled by Bhaskarabhatla and Ramajogayya Sastry. With these two names and Thaman controlling the music, songs will have to beat and mass oriented. We cannot expect melody or classic songs. Thaman has been consistent enough to provide template music and he never deviated from his templates. Lets see how he did though we know expecting any thing from him is not something he would like neither we. Singers are again standard payroll singers except for Neeti Mohan and MM Maanasi. He offered 5 songs only, which is a good relief. Lets not wait much time and get into the details of the songs.
 
1. Nuvvu Nenu Bomma[4:05]
Singer(s): Tippu, Ranjith
Lyricist: Bhaskarabhatla Ravikumar
 
Thaman Sir, how can you be so consistent. No one ever can come close to your consistency. Seems like song on Chaitanya and Sunil. Thaman's favorite instruments are all over the place, yet there is nothing in this song that worth mention other than being reminding us different songs. బాణం not భానం again its చప్పుడు not చ్చప్పుడు. Inspite of singing more than decade, these singers can never improve. This is very disappointing. Tippu and Ranjith are seasoned singers, singing wise they shouldnt have any issues.
 
 

2. Viyyalavaru[4:40]
Singer(s):  Neeti Mohan, Sooraj, MM. Manasi
Lyricist: Ramajogayya Sastry
 
Once again standard beats from Thaman to start his song. The female singer needs to be eliminated from Telugu Industry as soon as possible. They way she broke the words is horrible to listen. Never heard a good song from RJS. I think he became full time lyricist resigning his job, He should have more time to write some meaningful lyrics but he doesnt do that. Atleast once in a while wanted to see some good song from him. Singers disappoint in this song. Thaman doesnt.
 
 
 
3. Subhanallah[3:09]
Singer(s):  Karthik, Priya Hemesh
Lyricist: Ramajogayya Sastry
 
Surprisingly a short song. One more typical template music from Thaman. Not sure why no one is getting bored of hearing same tunes again and again. Since songs are available for free to listen, people are listening. Wonder what if they are for price. I really want to know who would want to buy and listen to these songs. Karthik struggled a lot singing this song. He is not his usual self. Priya Hemesh has nothing to do in this song.
 
 
4. Mara O Mara[3:04]
Singer(s):  Suchith Suresan, MM. Manasi
Lyricist: Ramajogayya Sastry
 
Listening to this song will tell what we are going to listen the entire album. Also we dont need to guess who has written and who made this song. One more template music from Thaman and RJS Sastry. Somehow lately Thaman's songs doesnt appear like songs any more. Singers read the lines with some background music and that music never changes. I think Thaman should have Suchith in his album either suresan or suchitra. Some how this album has very short length songs. Thaman gets inspired from every where for every note he made for this song which is not unusual for him. The singers kill the words in their style. The multilingual lyricist writes whatever he wants. Not sure why the team wasted their energy in making these songs, picturize it and add cost to producer when their is nothing to offer to viewer or listener.
 
5. Gana Gana Bottu[3:54]
Singer(s):  Haricharan, Priyadarshini
Lyricist: Ramajogayya Sastry
 
This song brings lots of questions to everyone associated to this song. What they were thinking making these type of songs which doesnt bring any value to the song or singers or music director. Thaman's capabilities should be known by now. He cannot offer any different. The interludes proves that, the tune proves that. Just to add the movie title they added Thadakha or based on this song, they named the movie is unknown. Thaman is getting money for what ever he is doing so he will not stop. Its upto movie industry to uplift the music department which has stooped all time low. Haricharan and Priyadarshini doesnt offer anything to us either
 
Pick(s) of the album: Strictly for fans of anyone in this movie, rest can easily ignore this album
 
Thaman has decided to remain as one of the low quality music directors in the Telugu film history and be consistent enough in that. Let him do that as long as he is getting money for doing what ever he want. So we cannot do much about that. Telugu music has always been on high time and currently this is the lowest time it can ever see. Things cannot go any lower than this. Music lovers can only hope for the best and keep listening to the best songs that the industry has given in the past and keep ignoring these kind of albums. Everything takes some time. So be patient. Good times will come.

Kaalicharan - Audio Review

Movie:      Kaalicharan (Telugu - 2013)
Producer:    Sri Praveen
Direction:    Sri Praveen
Cast: Caitanyakrsna, Chandni, Pankaj kesri, Rao Ramesh
Music:         Nandan Raaj

 
Gaayam 2 fame Sri Praveen is producing and directing a film which is an action and political film  that is based on a real incident which happened in the 1980s.Without revealing the incident or the plot, the director shot that the film Mahabub Nagar, Gadwal and Kadapa. Chandini is making her debut as an actress in Telugu. Nandan Raj has composed the music and buzz is that a song composed by the music director is going to be unveiled at the event. The film is being produced by Praveen Sri himself on Sri Karunalayam Productions banner. Music director has not done many films in past. He has done two in Tamil and two in Telugu and doesnt have any noted hits. All those movies went un noticed. Since this is a period movie, not sure whether director maintained the current trend of music or he did match the music to the period film. Vanamali I guess is single card lyricist. He messed up with Maniratnam movie kadali where he did not do a great job by translating the songs. However this movie with interesting subject should provide him ample space to prove himself again. Singers are welcome change, mostly are from the singers of reality shows. So lets see how the songs went. There are seven songs, a little more than standard format. If songs are good, it matters to have an additional song, else it will be one more song to ignore. The trailer of this movie is banned for content, which shows that this movie is going to be an intense drama.
 
1. Kurisi Kurisi
Singer(s): Aparna, Srikrishna
 
Song starts with classi piano, then with slow beats, with dristle and rain drops sound as rhythm, the song takes off a good note, But the singer Aparna with feeble and amatuer voice didnt add it to the grandeur. However the instruments keep up their good work. Added by beautiful lyrics, this song gives a mixed feeling. Srikrishna joins the party but he doest add any value to the song though he sings good. His voice is not strong enough to elevate the song. It has been rare to listen such kind of simple songs these days. Intruments are simple, voices are natural, lyrics are simple yet beautiful, not much issues with Telugu. Though singers could have done better, well thats only issue with otherwise feel good song. This album started on a pretty good note with a nice melody.

2. Mella Mellagaa
Singer(s): Vinay
This is a beaten up tune and rhythm, however music director, lyricist makes this song different. Vinay did decent job. Choosakega is one word, not choosa kega.. Once again nice lyrics. Another melody in the album. Nandan Raj adds nice interludes and keeps the rest very simple. Any love/romantic has to end on a whistle tune. Doesnt harm the song. Another decent song so far in the album.

3. Devudanna Peru
Singer(s): Suresh Babu


There are too many singers coming up lately, but none of them are making mark and staying long. Most of the voices are not getting heard again and again. Also with the voices getting tweaked and altered by music directors, the singers voices are loosing identity. So far this album singers voices go untouched, which is a great refreshing change. Suresh Babu sings a pathos on yet another fantastic lyrics. Short duration song, but it makes mark. The songs starts like a tatvam. The  rhythm continues through out the song. Any song that questions GOD is related to when human faces issues or has tragedy. People tend to question the way he does things. This song does the same. Overall a well made song.
 
4. Palike Aa guvvaSinger(s): SriKrishna
 
So far this album is so refreshing to ears after listening to series of albums. Not that tunes are so fresh and singers have done great. Most of the songs are sounding as Telugu songs, Singers are getting their identity, instrumentation is subtle yet making mark, lyrics are decent and simple melodies. Its been so rare to listen to such kind of albums these days. Its been a while having heard guitar so beautifully accompanying Singer. The drum beats sounded like its a periodic movie. Srikrishna's voice is stuck at there. He didnt make much progress becoming more mature singer, that would have helped to take this song more emphatic winner. This song is so far best work in the album. This will haunt people who have an ear for melody. Guitar will make you grow fascination towards this song. The beats in between take you to yesteryears.

5. Naa kallu Choodu
Singer(s): Geeta Madhuri

Wrong placement of this song in the album. This should have been the last song so that it is easy to ignore. There is no issues with the song as such, but Geeta Madhuri messed up the song so much that it will irritate few and finally a song to skip. However this song is purely for Singer's fans. After such a nice melody this song takes away the feeling from the earlier song. Now coming to the song, Telugu Film Industry is very good at stamping persons on face and throw the same thing throughout their careers. Geeta Madhuri makes a hit song singing as drunkard. She gets to sing the same song again. However her start is so horrible. Just irritates one. Then her over expressiveness takes the song away from listeners. These type of songs need to be done rightly any deviation will mess up the whole song. Few parts are good but her voice still has to mature a lot. There is a difference between eyes and kallu which has to be clear enough. She has energy but her singing didnt match energy. Anyways any issues with this song is purely can be assigned to Geeta Madhuri. Music director provides an energetic and foot tapping song. Lyrics are also not multilingual that we hear for these type of songs. Song for masses and they will for sure like it.

6. O Ningey Thulli HoliSinger(s): Ramki, Sahiti

Ramki and Sahiti did a good Holi song. Rare to listen singers pronounce "Chhaya" not "chaya". Another foot tapping song that appeals. Everything is again simple. Sahiti did better than Ramki. His voice could have been assertive. Seems like another family sentiment song with everyone involved. This song should be colorful as song indicates. Words gets elongated or shrunk to fit the tune, but that the least priority issue lately. Another feel good routine song.

7. Naa NinnuSinger(s): Anjana Sowmya
 
Anjana Sowmya is a great find of all singing talent shows. She has all quailities to be one of the top female singers if given right guidence and provided she choses to work hard. Her voice is so unique and versatile that she sings effortlessly. Male singer's name is missing, thats fine as Anjana Sowmya steals the limelight. Her expressions are right, singing is right, voice is right, and everything goes right for this song. This song accompanied by piano does fantastic. Anjana's initial humming is really seductive. The song is another standing out song in the album. Piano is impressive as is the song.





Pick(s) of the albums: Palike Aa guvva, Naa Ninnu, Devudanna Peru, Kurisi Kurisi, Mella Mellaga ( in that order ).




After a long time Telugu Film industry has provided a pure Telugu, Melody based, authentic singing, simple to ears, genuine effort made by the team. This album proves how these can make difference to the movie. The movie team needs to be commended for providing such an album to the listeners. Its really a good change to see. I really hope we get such kind of albums which will clear the ears for a while. Nandan Raj is a welcome change to the industry. His earlier albums went unnoticed, but this will for sure gets him the recognition that he will be due. People are following a trend these days and this album defies that trend and format. This album doesnt belong to so called youthful music, doesnt belong to songs that have tainted voices melody written all over it and comes with that disclaimer. This album will impress music lovers. However the issue of lack of singers is still hurting the industry, hope it finds some good singers soon, Else we will not see good music becoming great.

Greeku Veerudu - Audio Review

Movie:          Greeku Veerudu (Telugu - 2013)
Producer:    D.Siva Prasad Reddy
Cast:            Nagarjuna, Nayanatara, Meera Chopra, Bharat Reddy
Direction:    K. Dasaradh
Music:         SS Thaman
 
South Indian Manmadhudu, Nagarjuna Starrer Greeku Veerudu is an upcoming Indian Telugu film written and directed by K Dasaradh. Dasaradh and Nagarjuna's combination Santosham was run away hit both music and movie wise. This movie had excellent songs both tunes and lyrics. Nagarjuna sports a trendy moustache has become a phenomenon with his fans. Nayanatara plays female lead and supported by Meera Chopra and Bharat Reddy. Nagarjuna's earlier movies Sai baba, Dhamarukam, Rajanna provides a wide range of genres, and he is having great time with movies lately and he is enjoying as if it is his prime time. Dasaradh on the other had is going slow by doing limited movies, had done around 5-6 movies ever since he made Santosham.

On the other hand Thaman is running jet speed high signing and completing movies. If we forget about the quality, variety, melody and class compositions, he is on high. He is the only consistent music director who provides the same exact music every movie and inspite of all quality issues he is having, he is still on the high. That indicates the changing times of Telugu film music. Lets see whether he maintains his consistency or disappoints by providing refreshing quality music. Being master of re-use and inspiration, known for putting less effort making the music, need to see how much effort he had put in this movie.

This movie offers 7 songs. Actually can say 6 1/2 songs as last song length is ~1.5 minutes. Singers are pretty much the same, standard Thaman's troupe except for couple of surprises in the form of SPB and Mallikarjun. Singers like Jaspreet Jasz, Suchitra, Daler Mehndi, Baba Sehgal missing from singers list is a refreshing change. Apart from this Sirivennela has two songs and Anant Sriram has one. I guess that is mainly because of Dasaradh's choice. Sirivennela wrote an excellent song "ne tolisaariga kalagannadi" for Dasaradh in Santosham composed by RP Patnaik remained as the best composition from RP. The rest of lyricists are routine. Let's see whether Dasaradh tried to recreate the magic or Thaman dominated this and made Dasaradh option less.


1. I Hate Love Stories [3:34]   
Artist(s): Naveen Madhav, Ranjith 
Lyricist: Krishna Chaitanya

Heard Naveen in earlier movies, The moment we hear the start of the song, we can exactly tell the music is from Thaman. Thaman doesn't deviate an inch from his template music. His techno singing voices, false high pitch, sounds from keyboards accompanied by different sounds from chorus, high volume background music, rap in interludes everything is pretty standard.  Ranjith doesnt sound like himself and Naveen hardly sings. I think after few movies, Thaman uses his technology avoids all singers and might produce movies with a single voice all sound same avoiding some cost to producer. In earlier days either tape would have weared out or LP record used to get damaged. In this digital world unfortunately nothing such happens so that we can be spared out of this torture.

2. Ne Vinnadhi Nijjamena [3:29]   
Artist(s): Ranjith, Rita 
Lyricist: Balaji 

For a moment I thought the first song is still continuing. Ranjith is all togather different from first song to this song. The variety Thaman offers is the apply the techno effects to Rita instead of Ranjith. Thaman Sir, kudos for your experimentation. This song doesn't appear refreshing, reminds many tunes and songs. The song ends abruptly which is another style by Thaman.

3. O Naadu Washington [4:49]   
Artist(s): SP. Balasubramaniam 
Lyricist: Sahithi 

Thaman is fond of his own music, the starting reminds a slight variation of his own song. SPB Sir proves how a pretty ordinary tune can be elevated by his excellent voice. I thought Thaman would add sound effects to SPB Sir's voice, he disappoints me not doing any tampering to his voice. Instead he makes him sing high pitch here and there. Since it is by SPB we are forced to like this song. Thaman should realize what a singer's original voice could make difference to the song. He leaves pretty much the song as it is just keeping it simple, which makes a lot of difference.

4. Ee Parikshalo Thannaku [3:25]   
Artist(s): Haricharan, Vandana 
Lyricist: Sirivennela Sitarama Sastri 

Thaman doesnt deviate his pattern of music. Not sure why. Seems like he tries to weave music around few things. This song is perfect example of that. Vandana is another singer added to innumerous singers that TFI is getting. Pathos always has to be on high pitch. Haricharan tries his best to sing naturally but didnt succeed much. Vandana's voice lacks clarity and had to work hard to listen Sirivennela's lyrics. On the other hand Haricharan too made the job tough. Thaman's background music is loud, chorus is feeble didnt bring good effect that is required. Overall leaves a mixed feeling about this song.

5. Yevvaru Leranni [4:38]   
Artist(s): Mallikarjuna Rao 
Lyricist: Vanamali 

Seems like Mallikarjun is a forgotten singer in TFI, not sure who remembered and brought him back. He made a Telugu song sound Telugu. However the tune is pretty ordinary. Like reading the song rhythmically and with tempo. Thaman added some music here and there. Vanamali who messed up lyrics of kadali, is much better this time. In the end seems like Thaman forgot to say cut or didnt not edit the song properly ended on a odd note. Not sure why Thaman spared Mallikarjun from his techno voices, keeps his voice untouched.

6. Ossina Bangaram [3:24]   
Artist(s): Hemachandra, MM. Manasi 
Lyricist: Ananth Sriram 

Hemachandra and Manasi are pretty ordinary in this routine song. Thaman again produced template music. Nothing refreshing, no variety, same singing style, Chorus, interludes, beats are pretty much same. Rechipo nichavante has to be single word, Nichavante is tough to understand what it is..

7. Maro Janmae [1:48]   
Artist(s): Rahul Nambiar, Rita, Bindu, Parinka 
Lyricist: Balaji 

Mukka, Mikka, Makka whatever it is , 4 singers hardly do anything other than too much twists and singing turns.

Pick(s) of the album: O naadu washington, Ee parikshalo ( benifit of doubt )

KJ Yesudas once during a stage show, said that it takes a lot of hard work to become a singer or music director and talent. Not every one can think they become singer or music directors. However the way Thaman is creating music makes everyone feel comfortable dreaming that they can too become music directors.  He defies KJ Yesudas statement. 
 
Thaman owes a lot to his grand father who gave life to many artists in the industry and now they in turn are giving offers to him by showing gratitude to his grandfather. Every social networking sites is full of praises for Thaman, its no wonder Thaman is feeling more comfortable doing the same template music. It only proves that Telugu people lost taste of  music and are getting comfortable with whatever is offered to them.

There is no comparision of Dasardh/Nagarjuna combination earlier movie Santosham, this music doesnt offer much for Dasaradh. Its upto him to make his movie hit.
