The music has a distinctly late eighties feel, reminding you of Mouna Raagam days. Madhu retains the gentle sorrow that's the flavour of the whole song, making this one a pleasant listen.ДЄmma Un Pillai picks up where Madha Un KovililВ left off, this time in Sadhana Sargam's nasal voice.В Vaali has penned the lyrics. Madhu Balakrishnan starts off with characteristic depth, and the pace changes briefly, before returning to the original, steady rhythm. It's a tune you've heard before, used very well in movies like Pithamagan but its still effective here. Ilaiyaraja has penned Pichai Pathiram and the opening segment is an ominous mixture of suppressed emotion, with flutes aiding the feeling. Madha Un Kovilil rendered by Madumitha seems a simple, straightforward tune, written by Vaali, and is the shortest track in the album. The lyrics are touching, aided effectively by the notes, which do sound familiar and rather contrived at times - but you're able to overlook those, as the maestro's touch adds a different feel to them. There's a distinct North Indian flavour to the tune, and some segments remind you of eighties' Ilaiyaraja hits. TheВ medley of violins combining angst and sorrow, and Shreya Ghoshal's voice suits the melody. Up next is Vaali's Kannil Paarvai which begins in an intriguing fashion. The tagline Aham Brahmasmi makes an appearance as well. A brief percussion segment follows ending with a clash of cymbals. To those who're familiar with the composer's predilection for mantras, this will come as no surprise. Vaali's lyrics are interspersed with Sanskrit chants, both intertwining to create a hypnotic effect. V ijay Prakash makes an impressive beginning, his voice properly emotional, projecting a certain religious fervour.

The clash of urumi and pampai reverberate in your ears as Om Sivo Ham begins with a ritual Sanskrit chant on Shiva, makingВ you sit up eagerly in anticipation. Maestro Ilaiyaraja is the music director of Bala's most awaited Tamil movie, Naan Kadavul (I am God), produced by Vasans Visual Ventures.В Lets find out how it fares:
