Music Review (Telugu): Jai Simha

Music Review (Telugu): Jai Simha
Music Composer: Chirantan Bhatt

Ammakutti Ammakutti is tried and tested Telugu mass number where Geetha Madhuri's modulations in the Charanam portions being the only saving grace and the lyrics are ostensibly deplorable one from Bhaskarabhatla. Jaspreet Jasz infuses much energy to the languishing song with his energetic vocals. Chirantan Bhatt comes back to his form in Anaganaga Anaganaga where Vijay Yesudas sounds like his father and the composer's brilliant pleasant arrangements make this storytelling verses of Srimani works like a charm. Sanjoy Das's flute and Arun Kamath's guitar deserves special mention.

Jai Simha theme is a random outburst of Noel Sean and Vivek Hariharan where the tune and the rap portions hardly work despite lead singers tried to infuse liveliness to the song. The arrangements are predictably too loud and hardly has any catchy stuff from the composer. Priyam Jagame Anandhamayam's techno-laden duet is a tedious listen except for the lead vocals by Revanth and Ramya Behera. The backgrounds and arrangements are typical electronic sound without much to offer and the interludes fall flat along with the tune. Shreya Goshal and Chirantan Bhatt delivered few brilliant songs in their previous work and in this album also they delivered relatively pleasant jingle'ish score in the form of Yevevo Cheppanipisthundhi. Though the track falls below the combo's earlier works, this is the only song works in this weaker album from Chirantan Bhatt.

My rating: 6/10

Verdict: Chirantan Bhatt's first commercial album in Telugu is also the weakest one from the composer without much of his usual novelty or catchiness required for this kind of albums.

Pick of the Album: Yevevo Cheppanipisthundhi,  Anaganaga Anaganaga

P.S You can listen to the songs in Saavn
