Kuselan Audio review

Well its been nearly a week since the songs of the much anticipated Kuselan had arrived.....
The music of Superstar Rajnikanth's every film plays a very crucial role in determining the extent of success.......Usually Rajni's films have seasoned music directors who can handle the biggest stage a movie can offer in India.....so i must say that the rather inexperienced,young but talented G.V Prakash does a very decent job. He seems to show sudden similarity in terms of quality like his uncle ARR but only in certain small sections.....on the right track but a long way to go........ needs to improve his consistency.....

1) Cinema Cinema
Not the usual intro song for Rajni....no folkish element.....but interesting chorus pattern and this track will kinda grow on you......sounds a bit like balleillakka in certain portions......the trumpet piece sounds a bit like the Batman theme.......Shankar Mahadevan has sung this track with enormous speed,clarity and enthusiasm.....decent song but might work wonders based on the video featuring Superstar..... RATING:6.5/10

2) Chaara
My favorite track......in fact one of the best songs of GVP till date........very very catchy....the initial arrangements involving the sound of rain, with drop-like notes and the digital frog croaking seems to be very fresh......Shreya Goshal wat can i say......she seems to be improving with every song she sings...her tamil pronunciation has become almost perfect.....The Bass track of this song is fabulous......The orchestra string and Flute interlude are superb.....The tune is gr8 as well......GVP makes use of the children choir excellently just like ARR!!
....... RATING:9/10

3) Om Zaarare
This track had a lot of hype because Daler Mehndi was involved in it......The intro of the song is nice and it has a catchy chorus but i felt that that song was too long......plus there was no need to have Chitra sing this track as well..... the masses will like this song a lot.....i'm waiting for this track's video which promises to be a visual treat filled with grandeur and pomp...The lyrics of this song would make a big impression on all hard core Rajni fans....Kudos to Daler who gives extreme power to the vocals of this track..... RATING:6.5/10

4)Sollamma
A very soothing melody filled with Hariharan's honey-like voice.....based on the musical arrangements it seems to be a village based track probably filmed on Pasupathi and co......
Nothin much to write about this track.........a good song but dont know how much recall value it possesses....It's definitely not a chartbuster..Worth listening though.. RATING:7.8/10

5)Perinba
The most disappointing track for me in this album.......though the lyrics and tune of this track are really nice, GVP has committed a blunder by using the SAME BEATS as in Veiyil (Veiyillodu Vilaiyaadi) with Kailash Kher once again on the vocals....So both the songs sound agonizingly similar.......If GVP tried to be original with this track then i would call it a wasted effort!!
...RATING:3.5/10

OVERALL VERDICT:

• An average album but decent effort by GVP
  
• worthwile expense if you are a hardcore Rajni fan
  
• RATING: 6.8/10
