His faithful son, played by Mahesh, doesn't waste an 'avakasham' to break into a dance. Sathyaraj plays a rich businessman whose 'dharma' in life is to celebrate with everyone. Later, they take a stroll down a CG-enabled Vijayawada barrage, only to creatively talk about updations in the mentalities of boys and girls of today's generation. In this one-half-of-an-idea-thanklessly-stretched-into-a-modestly-over-indulgent-feature-film called 'Brahmotsavam', there is this heroine who asks the guy what if she gets excited in the presence of this ever-smiling hunk during a night's outing. Such is the wittiness of Srikanth Addala's narration. The lyrics are a cause of celebration for the language lovers.There is this irony called Mahesh Babu (his character has no specific name, but he is allegorically Tirumala Srinivasudu) who claims to not think too much, but who puts up loaded stares one too many times. It's Mickey all the way, helped by a range of singers. Verdict: An album with a pronounced traditional (and in one place, even folkish) sound and patois.
BRAHMOTSAVAM 2016 REVIEW FULL
The lyrics are full of positivity, something that is there all throughout the album. Kudos to her for bringing pep to the proceedings. Shravana Bhargavi's knack for pulling off songs like this needs no introduction. Again, it depends mostly on the context that the song comes in. In an album essentially traditional in tone and tenor, this song is the odd man out. All in all, one ought to wait for the picturization to make the song more appealing.Īrtists: Shravana Bhargavi, Mickey J Meyer Rahul Nambiar's sharp vocals here give way to some mildness. However, the lyrics are entertaining and come with large doses of playfulness. One feels there is nothing worthy of humming. The album's only full-fledged romantic song is a mild disappointment. Mickey resorts to a soft melodic influence and laces folkish music with it. The lyrics are faithful to folkish traditions. Their vocals are striking and bring to the song much-needed zing, without sounding too rustic. Anjana and Ramya Behara choruse with aplomb. In the Telugu countryside where such songs are commonplace, family names are invoked in a light-veined manner. The song is in the mould of those folk songs sung by the village belles. Mickey's music only complements the excellent work done by the lyricist and the singer. Meaning-laden lyrics ensure that the song makes a profound sense. One also feels the song will be that much more elevated on the big screen when we see it as part of the story. The lyrics mirror the protagonist's optimism and, it goes without saying, Karthik's vocals that come with youthfulness and purity are apt for this number. The song is themed around the film's story. All in all, an electrifying song in the sense of a family number. The lyrics get poetic as well as metaphysical when the protagonist wonders if he has to discover something that spans lives.
Sreeram Chandra has that charming voice that eminently suits the song, which is about a youngster rediscovering his roots. But over here, he improvises upon it and ensures the celebratory mood is well carried throughout.
Mickey has that unmistakable Happy Days hangover.
Mickey's music makes an impact because he mixes the traditional with the modern, especially through instrumentation. The lyrics are an agglomeration of a few purely Telugu words. Padma and Sridevi choruse in the traditional mould their vocals come with that pristine Carnatic touch. The song serves the purpose of glorifying the hero as that idea one. The song is in the typical Srikanth Addala mould, complete with celebratory mood, lively faces, inspiring lyrics, and a family get-together. Peppered with a good number of English words/phrases (a new for a family song, for example, ABCD is given the acronym of Anybody can dance), the song exhorts one and all to "live for the moment" and shoo away the worries. Lyrics by Sirivennela Seetharama Sastry are markedly everyday in terms of the language used. Mickey J Meyer's music is inspired from his own previous works, with a pronounced Happy Days hangover seen. The singer has a baritone that is exhilarating in its sound, so it's more than apt for a song of this genre. Abhay Jodhpurkar, Padma, Sridevi, Sriram Chandra, Karthik, Anjana Sowmya, Ramya Behra, Rahul Nambiar, Shravana Bhargavi, Mickey J Meyer are the singers.Ībhay Jodhpurkar, who has sung 'Ya Ya' in the recently-released A Aa, has rendered this number. The album comes with lyrics from Sirivennela Seetharama Sastry, Srikanth Addala and Krishna Chaitanya, besides two folklore songs.
