Dindigul Sarathy - Audio Review

Dindigul Sarathy - When I read this movie's name I thought this might be another Paerarasu film who is well known for "Ooru paera" peyara vaikra director :-) no he is not associated with this movie.

Another comedian Karunas becomes a hero in this movie. This movie is produced by Kalanithi Maran's Sun pictures and the movie is directed by Siva Shunmugan. Music Director Dina is back after a long time.

This audio has 6 tracks, 1 being repeated and 1 being remixed.

1. Dhindukallu
Song is sung by Karunas wife Grace, Chinnaponnu, Anthony. Song is penned by V.IlangO.
A typical folk song for front benchers. Melody mongers, please stay away. This is not your cup of tea. Mass lovers, yes this is your number. This song seems to be a definite hit considering the same type of song had become hit in recent times. Grace voice stands out. Instead of Anthony they should have used karunas himself as I have seen him in TV shows who sings reasonably well. Voice of Anthony looks like karunas is another plus.

2. Paruthikkaadu
This song is sung by Shankar Mahadevan. Penned by director Siva Shunmugam himself. This song stands out and my pick of this album. When i saw shankar mahadevan in the CD jacket, I thought another folk number, no it is not. Shankar has sung this melody number beautifully. This song will be in my Yukebox shortly for listening.

3. Ammadi Aaaththaadi
This song is sung by Kailash Kher and Dhina. Song penned by Nandhanaala. This song is another interesting number and sung well by Kailash Kher. In fact I would say a typical Kailash Kher number. Another voice which will perfectly blend with Karunas when he sings this number in the movie. On repeated hearing this song somehow tempts you to listen to it again.

4. Suttapazhama Sudatha pazhama
This song is sung by Myskin, another Film Director and Sangeetha. Song is penned by Director Siva Shunmugan. Another folk number, fast beats, dandanakka danakanakka song. Song says kuththadi kuthadi sailakka. This song is meant for that.

5. Dindukallu Dindukallu - Remix
Same team. Two additions. Music is Remixed by Paul J.Karunas & Blaze has lent his voice in rap portion. Nothing spectacular. Repeated the original beats with tempo increased. Only noteable point is Blaze has rendered his trade mark rap singing. Last two minutes Blaze takes over.

VIVEK'S PAARVAI:
Overall, Dindigul Sarathy audio tracks are definitely not meant for melody mongers. Full & Full folk numbers. One or two will become mass hit like "nakka mukka". I feel visually it would be interesting to watch these songs. I would rate 2 out of 5 for this album. This "two star" I had rated for two interesting numbers one sung by kailash kher and another one sung by Shankar Mahadevan. Both are well tuned by Dhina.

STAR Rating : * *
