Review:
Film-maker Linguswamy is well known for making films that have just the right mix of romance and action. Followed by the grand success of Sandakozhi, Linguswamy and Yuvan Shankar Raja have collaborated once more for Paiyya, and the result is a bunch of commendable tunes.
Staring Karthi, Thamannah and Milind Soman, the action-packed entertainer has highway and travel as a backdrop. Paiyya is all about the protagonist meeting his love – and object of hatred – on his journey.

The opening track is ‘Thuli Thuli’ which starts with a melodic prelude over guitar and simple beats followed by Haricharan taking off with his splendid vocals. Yuvan persistently keeps blending more fill-ins on accompaniment. Although Haricharan does a great job, Karthik could’ve been a better choice, as the song required more of a throaty voice.

Benny Dayal has to work on modulating his vocals, as the young singer keeps intonating every song in the same style. The beats of ‘Poongatre Poongatre’ are pretty similar to Harris Jayaraj’s score of ‘Oh Aayi Ye’ in Surya’s Ayan. A few lines in the song (from the line ‘Nenjodu Veesum’ onwards) sound like Sukhwinder Singh’s yesteryear album, Nasha Hi Nasha Hai.

Sure to etch its presence as this year’s chartbuster, ‘Adada Mazhaida’ showcases the perfect duet of Rahul Nambiar and Saindhavi that falls smoothly with simple beats and excellent interludes. Kudos to Yuvan for roping in the best singers for the track. However, it’s Na Muthukumar’s lyrics that stand out in this excellently laid track and make it sound splendid.

‘Sutthudhe Sutthudhe’, sung by Karthik and Sunitha Saarathy, is disappointing with its flat notes over the beginning lines. But latter verses are better with their catchy tunes. As mentioned earlier, Karthik should’ve been offered to croon the first song and Rahul Nambiar should have sung this one. Sunitha Saararthy doesn’t stand out and has no prominence in this song.

‘En Kadhal Solla’ is a mediocre song in terms of voices, but it excels with the instrumentation. Nonetheless, Yuvan’s Midas-touch may likely make it big on the music charts. Over here again, it’s a stunning show by Na Muthukumar, as he enchants us with his fascinating lyrics.

Finally, Paiyya has a couple of songs like ‘Adada’ and ‘Thuli’, which have already become a sensational hit while it would take some more time for rest of the songs to make it big. Preferably, vigorous promotions over the radio stations will surely yield best results for the songs.

Who’s making it big in audio markets?

- R. Richard Mahesh, Sampurn Media
It’s turning out be a fest for aficionados of music, as they are treated to a slick slew of audio releases in the past couple of months. With the market bombarded with audio of Tamil films the listener has options more than one to choose from.

So, who’s making it big in the audio markets? At present, its Yuvan Shankar Raja’s Paiyya and Ilaiyaraaja’s Hindi film Paa that are selling like hot cakes.

The store manager of a leading music store in Chennai says, “Previously, A.R. Rahman’s Blue had great sales. But now, Ilaiyaraaja’s Paa and his son Yuvan Shankar Raja’s Paiyya is witnessing grand sales. Since the stocks are getting over soon, we have already ordered more than 500 copies of both the albums.”

Speaking about more releases in December, our source adds, “We are really excited, since December will have three big audio releases –Goa, Theeradha Vilayattu Pillai and A.R. Rahman’s Vinnaithandi Varuvaaya (both Tamil and Telugu). As well we’re expecting Surya’s Singam by the yearend or precisely by the first week of January.”
