Everything
about 'Jilla' has been creating headlines. From the opening song
involving more than a thousand to the track that Vijay himself sang,
expectations about this album has been high all along. Now with the
album being received in hugely positive opinion, here's a briefing of
the musical magic that Imman has worked on the upcoming Vijay, Mohanlal,
Kajal starrer.
1. Pattu Onnu Listen here
Lyricist : Yugabharathi
Singer : SP. Balasubramaniam, Shankar Mahadevan
'Jilla'
opens on a highly appealing and extremely energetic song, that more
than lives up to the promises about this track. Bringing electric guitar
and traditional chenda beats together in an interesting mix, Imman has
delivered in all grandeur, the opening song to which stalwarts will be
tapping their feet. Shankar opens the song in all zeal, and SPB adds in
later to make it a wholesome joyous listening experience. Apart from the
predominant guitar and chendas, viola is also used to add to the magnum
opus. The song gets very high on energy in the musical experience
between the second and third stanzas. Mohanlal is Siva and Vijay's
screen name is Sakthi in 'Jilla'; that explains part of the lyrics.
Speaking of friendship and an optimistic and mutually encouraging
relationship, 'Pattu Onnu' is a mass song in all respects.
2.Verasa Pogayile Listen here
Lyricist : Parvathy
Singer : D. Imman
The
second one this album is a romantic track high on violins. With typical
Imman touch, this romantic solo uses violins extensively. Starting and
ending in whistles, the song is a beautiful melody with simple lyrics,
apt for a young lad who's just stumbled upon love. The song has strings
of English influence, and it captures the mood of rapture in the right
measure. Signature musical pieces by Imman are always outstanding and
the one here in violins is no exception to the rule.
3.Jingunamani Listen here
Lyricist : Viveka
Singer : Ranjith, Sunidhi Chauhan
Roping
in Sunidhi Chauhan for a folk-style song, this track is quite a
thoroughly unpredictable surprise package. The track starts with air
instruments and opens in Sunidhi's rustic voice on Viveka's raunchy
lyrics. As Ranjith adds to the duet, the song proceeds further at a
foot-tapping pace. Different varieties of guitars are used in this song,
which add depth and volume to the track. The signature music after
first and second stanzas are trademark of Imman, and uplift the overall
listening experience. Beats all along the song are heavy and thumping,
creating an energetic aura about the song.
4. Kandaangi Kandaangi Listen here
Lyricist : Vairamuthu
Singers : Vijay, Shreya Ghoshal
One
of the most awaited songs of 'Jilla' is here. For a change, Vijay has
crooned for a romantic melody in 'Kandangi Kandangi'; it is the actor
who opens the song after the female hum, and he has sung like a pro in
this track. Shreya sings the coy yet taunting repartee to Vijay's lines,
making the duet a lovers' anthem. Vairamuthu's prowess cannot be
measured in words, and it has been captured right in this intelligent
composition. Given the lyricist's complex usage of language, Shreya's
pronunciation deserves a special mention for making the song clean and
hitch-free. This track uses violins in enchanting notes and strings.
5. Yeppa Maama TreatuListen here
Lyricist : Viveka
Singer : D. Imman, AV. Pooja, Snigdha Chandra
'Jilla'
sure is a treat to all the fans, and this song is about it all. There
is almost seldom a reason for treat, but parties are fun unlimited.
'Yeppa Maama Treatu' is a party song in hip-hop style. The track opens
in Pooja's voice and is a foot-tapping number, to which you can get on
the dance floor and start dancing. The party gets a Tamil folk twist
after the second stanza, when the pace slows down to the change in
beats. It quickly transcends to faster beats, and the transitions are
smooth without any glitch. Keys used for this song are a quirky addition
to the party-happy song.
6. Jilla ThemeListen here
Lyricist : Viveka
Singer : Santhosh Hariharan, Deepak, Anand, Shenbagaraj
The
best way to describe this song is to call it the rise of the heroes.
Racy and energetic, the song begins in disco genre. This track is highly
appealing as it is carried in chorus, which carries a certain
positivity about it. Tamil rap after the second stanza speaks of the
fighting spirit and warrior-like brave attitude of the hero. The last 60
seconds of this 3-minute long high-energy song introduces chendas, and
it gets better at every beat, making the song an extraordinary track
full of josh climaxing in a powerful end.
The
nail-biting wait has come to an end, and 'Jilla' has matched up to
expectations to the fullest. Imman has composed some of the finest
tunes, tailor-made for the youthful josh. But it is not restricted one
age-group - the songs are for all, as everyone will enjoy this energy,
without exception. With this, the expectations about the film has risen
up multiple notches, as we gear up for a smashing Pongal this January.
Rating: 3.9/5
