Sakkarakatti, A.R.Rahman

"I miss u da" and "Chinnamma" , both with Chinamayee's vocals appeals quicker; the latter being the tamil-version of a Meenaxi track. "Taxi taxi" is a rap number which may take time to become a hit and has Blaaze coming over again."Elay" and "Naan eppodhu" reminds me some of Rahman's earlier compositions with more of konjum mainakkale touches in the latter. Again
"Maruthanee" is a good track but I could here some kadhal virus touches in the beginning. The same track reminds me of some Vidyasagar's tracks( Thendral and Gilli). I expected a Karthik track in this..alas got disappointed!! Anyways a hodge-podge attempt from Isaipuyal this time but sure of becoming a chartbuster.

Rating: ***1/2

Best track : Marudhaani

Jeyam Kondaan, Vidyasagar

"Adai mazhai kaalam" is on similar lines to his much recent 'Iru Vizhiyo' from Pirivom Santhippom yet eminently listenable. "Naan Varaindhi Vaitha suriyan" is also a pleasant melody but Madhusree's diction kills in otherwise mellifluous flow of Hariharan's voice. "Sutri varum Bhoomi" is good but not great. "Adhai koodava" is on usual trite. "Ore or" is just passable.
