The hypes are something normal when it comes to big personalities in
film and music industries. But many a time it doesn’t stand up to its faith. And
anticipations are high normal when an enormous budget film is on news, comprising
people renowned for their grandeur in filmdom. “Ai” has been in progress for a
long time in filmmaking, under a budget which is ever so high in Tamil film
industry. Don’t anyone will wonder, what would there be in a film to cost so
much? Yet, the film hadn’t released (but
I hope it suppose to be terrific), the audio is out last week, witnessing the
Hollywood and Kollywood superstars – Arnold Schwarzenegger and Rajini Kanth.
The film has actors in best, Vikram, and Emy Jackson of
Madrasapattinam; and directed by ace director Shanker and music by Oscar winner
AR. Rahman. Shanker films always spoke for songs and his way of shooting is
something unique and quite impressive. With ARR music they transport us to a
difference world! Though the audio of Ai is released, I couldn’t go completely
denying the album despite being disappointed with the songs composed which
perhaps could go well on movie front or the film needed so, but I don’t feel
content with the way it was loaded. It was an album blended with various genre
of music.
Let me go first with my favorite in the album, Pookkalae Sattru Oyivedungal. The song is penned very simple, yet
rendered beautiful in the soothing voices of Haricharan and Shreya Ghoshal. The
lyric by Karky has really done justice to the song by relating the title Ai so
well. Simply love the song.
On the line of melody, following Pookkalae, Ennodu Nee Irundhaal is a song with romantic feels thought it sounds
like singing on path of pain and craving to unite. Among the two versions of the
same, the reprise sung by Chinmayi and Sid Sriram was very pleasant and
moderate at flow rather the other version that feels lag between the rhyme and
rhythm.
Ladio is very stylish song defines the beauty of a perfect lady, and according
to Karky’s lyrics the number 32 22 32 seems to be perfect. The song sounds like an intro to the gorgeous
Emy in the film. Initially it felt like
listening to a pop number from a popular English album, but slowly feels
familiar as I find it sound similar to Irumbile oru Idhaiyam from Enthiran.
Nikita Gandhi has a sexy tone and she emits words like delicate tidbits.
Mersalayitten is a fast track and in company of Neeti Mohan, the soup boy Anirudh
has given voice a man who seems mesmerized (what “Meral” sounds like) meeting a
most beautiful woman (of course who other than Emy) and sings a song with words
he was familiar. Kabilan has written lyrics (in fun mode) giving emphasis to
the local madras Tamil, which sure to strike across chennaities. I find my bro have
this song as his ringtone.
Aila Aila sounds like a sort of stage play and Natalie Di Luccio gives a rustic
voice, which seems to provoke agitation, as well something unpredictable
astonishment. This is something offbeat to Tamil audience. But great attempt by ARR, which isn’t new for
him.

Sounds like quite an interesting album Jeevan. Have a great day sir!!
that looks like a really trippy movie I'm going to have to see now
The trailer makes me afraid, I hope the movie is not as gory as the trailer makes it to be!
I listened to one song, it was fine. Should listen to other songs too, now. I think ARR's music grows with time, even if it isn't initially attractive.
Destination Infinity
I can only hope that the movie is as good as the audio seems to be.
