Santhosh Narayanan tweeted, 'Entire albums of the biggest artists have leaked before.It won't change the love we have for our favourites.#keepcalmandlovekabali :)'
Here is a quick review of the Kabali audio:
1) Ulagam Oruvanukka (Ananthu, Santhosh and Gana Bala) A woinderful harmony. The trio of Ananthu, Santhosh and Gana Bala rocks. Their voices blend in style. The Kabali swag and the rap verses by Roshan Jamrock elevates the song. A brisk one in typical Santosh Narayanan style.
2) Veera Thurandhara (Gana Bala, Lawrence and Pradeep Kumar) Distinctly different from regular Gana Bala songs. He adds more emotion to the lyrics rendering it in Western style. Good use of guitar and percussion instruments, the song is more peppy. The rap interlude is catchy. Back up vocals by Lawrence and Pradeep Kumar are good.
3) Maya Nadhi (Ananthu, Pradeep Kumar & Swetha Mohan) Santosh Narayanan and his romance for guitar is well known. In Maya Nadhi, he brings a wonderful blend between guitar and strings to make it a lively number. Santosh's sweet rendition and Swetha Mohan's good support are the highligts. An unusual tune that keeps gaining strength with new sounds.
4) Vaanam Paarthen (Pradeep Kumar) A soft and a sombre number, it is a nice wedding between guitar and flute. A melodious chorus and Pradeep's soft rendition go hand-in-hand. Santosh Narayanan strikes it rich.
5) Neruppu Da (Arunraja Kamaraj) The best for the last. A super effort by Santosh Narayanan. A scorching theme song with the catchy vocals of Arunraja Kamaraj that completely rocks. Jhanu Chantar’s electric guitar and Tapass Naresh’s drums are mesmerising. A number that will be cherished and celebarted by Rajinikanth fans. And it couse comes with powerful dialogues by the actor himself in the interlude.
