Ippadai Vellum Music Review - Ramesh Kannan 


Ippadai Vellum is an upcoming action comedy film directed by Gaurav with Udhayanidhi Stalin and Manjima Mohan in the lead roles. Imman Joins hands with the director after Sigaram Thodi. Let's check out whether album turns out better or not for this combo.

 

Ippadai Vellum Nichayame: Imman provides the optimistic positive attitude title song for Shreya Goshal and the lady aces it perfectly with minor hiccup during the arousing chorus sections. However, Imman beautifully crafts the background, with the standout Nathan's woodwinds and Saxophone work. Arunraja Kamaraj shines with his aspirational lyrics for this title song.

 

Godfather Kanmaniye: Aadharaa's fangled rendition of Arunraja Kamaraj's verses aside, Godfather Kanmaniye is predictable with very less awe or influencing element in the track. The tune also fails to evoke interest except for the occasional brilliance in the form of Raghavasimhan's solo violin.

 

Thodra Paakalam: Thodra Paakalam verses are tailor-made for Arunraja Kamaraj's vocals but Imman's vocals also work adequately for the pedestrianly composed tune by the composer. Keba Jeremiah's guitar and punchy percussions go well with the energy in the verses but the tune hardly sticks to the listener's mind. The tune reminds some of the Imman's earlier day compositions.

 

Kulebaa Vaa: Kulebaa Vaa rides mainly on the adequately engaging Kaviraj's Arabian Rhythm and the tune standalone doesn't make quite a cut but still, the overseas singers Kumaresh Kamalakannan and Nalini Krishnan make this one a listenable track till it lasts. One wishes Imman could have done a more imaginative track with this rhythm sound.

 

Theme track:  The theme track is the tweaked upbeat version of the title song with a few intriguing sounds added to get the thrilling effect but makes the lesser impact mainly because of the vocal portions.

 

Verdict: Imman continues to be pigeonholed with his stock sounds and Ippadai Vellum is not an outlier either.

 

My Rating: 2.5/5

 

Pick of the Album: Ippadai Vellum Nichayame, Kulebaa Vaa
