Music Review: Oka Ammayi Thappa

Movie: Oka Ammayi Thappa
Music Director: Mickey J Meyer
Label: Aditya Music
Rating: 3.5
Review: Mickey J Meyer is on a roll right now, scoring songs for movies by the dozen.This album, he starts off with Kotta Kadalay sung by Ramya Behara. Featuring a beautiful shehnai intro, the track excels with its dreamy vibe perfectly complemented by Ramya's melodious voice.Kaav Kaav sung by Abhay Jodhpurkar and Haricharan is an upbeat number that starts with a mix of desi beats and EDM sounds. A foot tapper, this song also features quirky lyrics and is sure to be fan favourite. Ramya and Abhay team up for Yegirenay Yegirenay, a romantic track with equally romantic lyrics, but the song tends to get a bit monotonous as it goes on. Sarihaddu Lopala sung by Aditya has a rocking start with the electric guitar starting out and the lyrics being sung in hard hitting fashion.The final song Druvam Druvam sung by Karthik and Sri Krishna is almost like a magnum opus. Starting off with chants that are almost war-like, the beats for the song also add to its intimidating ambience.The albums excels and keeps things interesting throughout. -Deepu.Joseph@timesgroup.com
