My thoughts on Puli

I am doing this ony for Neha Singh, Head of Sony Music, she asked me to write a review.
So im doing a sin, i know, reviewing legend A.R. Rahmans music.


1) Power Star ---- 3.5/5.0
Singers : Vijay Prakash, Tanvi Shah

This song is full of Josh and energy
Lyrics are good ,Catchy. Wonder whether common Telugu listeners understand what Tanvi is singing :-) Phone ringing sound mix is good in the middle
Orchestrisation and vocals dominate more. Vijay Prakash is touching all genres and yea it's a well mixed track.



2) Amma Thale -----4.0 /5.0
Singers: Naresh Iyer, Swethe Mohan

The pronunciation and accent by singers is different and new.
You like the song on repeated hearing. Definitely my favourite song in the album.

3) Maaralente -----3.5/5.0
Singers : A. R. Rahman and KMMC Choir
Conducted by Kavita Baliga

The main Theme of the Album- inspirational
Rahman’s voice suited well. But you dont get that something that you get from Vandemaataram or Aazadi. Cheers to KMMC choir.

4) Maham Maye ------3.0/5.0
Singers : Javed Ali, Suchitra Vocals :Milli Nair

It is a duet and catchy in the first hearing itself, but why Javed Ali?
The song sounds similar to “Raagala Chilaka” of Palnati Porusham.
Good to see Suchi's & Mili's name in the track list.

5) Dochey ------2.5/5.0
Singers : Shreya Ghoshal, Lady Kash 'N' Krissy

You are one Who make the Bad guys cry…..The cheddavallu Cry

The song sounds like an item Number, Vocals and Orchestra make a strong impact.
Shreya Ghoshal adds more sweetness with her voice in the Middle.
Lady Kash 'N' Krissy? Rahman couldn't find any better female rappers i guess.

6) Namakame ------3.0/5.0
Singers : Chitra, Madhushree, Harini

Offering prayers to god- Devotional Bhajan Type ,Similar to Lagan’s “O Paalan haarey”

Rahman Songs make us less bothered about the lyrics any way. Don't blame the lyricist Chandra Bose -because we have heard even more worst lyrics written(literally translated from Tamil) earlier by A.M.Ratnam for Rahman Songs.

Over all a good album .
Like any other Rahman’s recent album this one too is not an instant Hit but slowly gets injected on repeated hearings. But he shouldn't try doing this. 100 songs are releasing everyday and we can't expect people to hear the song everyday to get it injected. We have seen what happened to Ravan songs. Somewhere i feel, he has lost his senses, Is all these attention given by millions forcing him to do crazy stuffs and sound horrible? Need to think.

Audio might be a hit

Overall rating ------- 3.5 / 5
