Dhruva Songs - Music Review
Ramesh S Kannan
Dhruva is an upcoming Telugu movie directed by Surendar Reddy with Ram Charan as a lead and the movie is a remake of blockbuster Tamil movie Thani Oruvan. Hip Hop Tamizha is retained as the composer. Let’s check out whether Hip Hop Tamizha delivers fresh tunes or rehashed one from the original.
Dhruva Dhruva: The classy Theemai dhan vellum from Thani Oruvan is tweaked for the Telugu version with ample dosage of trance elements and made it as Telugu audience friendly. Hip Hop Tamizha roped Bollywood singer Amit Mishra for this rousing anthemic title track. Hip Hop Tamizha’s sprightly interludes works effectually throughout the track and clasps the listener till it lasts.
Choosa Choosa: ✔ Choosa Choosa is a pleasant hummable composition where Padmalatha easily scores over the edgy vocals of Sniggy and the charanam tune portion makes up for the slightly tepid start of the song. Though the synthesised sounds in the interludes ends up being bland one, the lead singer vocals and Chandrabose’s simple lyrics makes this one enjoyable.
Pareshanura: ✔ Hip Hop Tamizha delivered stunning Hindustani classical song Kannala Kannala in the tamil version and the composer once again churned out equally enjoyable classical fusion Pareshanura while Padmalatha rendering the vocals for this song also. The classical tune is amped up with the veena and Nadhaswaram interludes and Padmalatha aces the rendition as always.
Neethoney Dance: It’s difficult to comprehend Telugu commercial album without any trendy mass appealing dance track and the composer delivered easily accessible typical Bollywood styled party number and the soundscape screams Punjabi party styled song from the start till end. Overall, hip hop Tamizha ends the soundtrack with mediocre number replete with repetitive lines. The tinge of nadhaswaram solo towards the end being the only respite.
Verdict:
Hip Hop Tamizha’s tollywood debut is refreshing and an enjoyable one among the recently released Telugu albums.
