Music Review (Telugu): Rakshasudu

Music Review (Telugu):  Rakshasudu
Music Composer: Ghibran

 Chini Chini equivalent of Kadhal Kadal dhaana from the Tamil is a lovely laid back melody where Sid Sriram does wonders with the rendition. Ghibran continues his exquisite layering especially loved the subdued Subramanyam's veenai in the background. The tune turns more beautiful around the Naa Gundello phrase. Naa Chinni Thalli carries the gloomy tone and Kaala Bhairava's earnest rendition complements well with the Ghibran's arrangements. Cheekatlo kamme is an interesting hip hop mix where the tune flows with different paces mixed together with the rap makes this one an engaging listen and Ghibran mixes the lovely haunting sounds in the background amidst the techno affair. Ghibran wonderfully tweaked the Tamil version's Maayangal Naanada in Kalalo Merupu and the Telugu version carries more punch and swag while Tamil version is kind of laid back with the retro-pop feel.

Verdict: It's delightful that Ghibran chooses to create original tunes for the remake and the composer continues to deliver with aplomb consistency. But loved the Tamil version more especially because of lovely Piriyame Piriyame.

My Rating: 7.5/10

Pick of the Album: Chinni Chinni, Cheekatlo Kamme.
