Kennedy club is an upcoming Tamil sports drama directed by Suseenthiran with Sasikumar in the lead role. Suseenthiran's regular collaborator, Imman scores music for the film. Imman always manages to deliver few enjoyable melodies for Suseenthiran in all his earlier films with Jeeva being the best from the duo but Kennedy club turns out to be an outlier with hardly any spark in the songs.

Kabbadi Kabbadi: Though Kabbadi Kabbadi screams on the face that Imman is behind the score, the track works largely thanks to Resmi Sateesh who sang the powerful song in the Malayalam film Urumi earlier. Suriya Badrinath and Srinidhi ably support her. The arrangements are typical Imman forte where the punching rhythm which reminds of the composer's earlier songs. The male version of the song is largely the same except for the Deepak's vocal and Viveka's lyrics. Comparatively, the female version works much better because of the superlative singing.

Unnaale Unnaaley Mudiyadhendral: Unnaale Unnaaley Mudiyadhendral's is significantly different from the usual tone one can hear for the motivational track if one goes by the lyrics of Viveka. Vijay Yesudas's earnest singing and the splendid usage of Seenu's stringed instruments in the second interlude are the highlights in an otherwise prosaic tune churned out by Imman.

Mattakku Mattakku: Imman brings in another North Indian singer Keerthi Sagathia to Kollywood and he manages to deliver the tune with the occasional slip up in the diction. The tune is largely pedestrian one rides mainly on the vigorous fast rhythm. The arrangements are overdone which comes across as the loud song and the title hook is so Hindi'ish for the Tamil song.

Vaaraan Unna Vachiseyya Poraan: Vaaraan unna Vachiseyya Poraan is another garish track with the band of singers Santosh Hariharan, Shenbagaraj, Vignesh Narayanan and Deepak. Manoj's solo violin bits got wasted amidst the cacophonous soundscape and Viveka's equally threatening lyrics especially Mavane Mavane part.

Vali Thaangidum Vaazhkai: Imman ends the soundtrack with another motivational track Vali Thaangidum Vaazhkai crooned by Keerthi Sagathia. The short duration of the track and the pretty much functional arrangements doesn't work to its favour.

Bottomline: Imman's latest soundtrack is unwarrantedly loud and filled with largely flashy motivational tracks without any finesse in the tunes.

Rating: 2/5
