Sakkarakatti Audio Review

Its always a special feeling listening to many of ARR's songs and it is one, even to review one of his albums.

'Chinamma' is a great track with beautiful music and good singing. A Special mention about Chinmayee who was simply amazing in the song. Its such a treat hearing her sing.

'Elay' is without doubt the best track of the album. At first listen this track seems very ordinary which gives Most people a 'heard-that-before' feeling. But this is where the true talent of ARR is brought about. He has literally transformed a song with a very ordinary tune, to a superb foot-tapping number with some spell-binding music!! If you want to know what i mean, try singing this song without its music and see how plain and unattractive it sounds. Thats the greatness of ARR's music. The intense detail of music in this song calls for numerous listens.

'I Miss You Da' fails to maintain the standard set by the first two songs with experimentation which did not exactly create a great listen. But nevertheless we now know about Chinmayee's versatility too.

'Marudhaani' and 'Naan Epoudhu' (which I've already heard numerous times through the hindi version in 'Meenaxi') are two more good tracks which maintain your interest in the album but don't have anything which make them extraordinary.

And finally, the most talked about song of this album is far from the best. The popularity of 'Taxi Taxi' dwells on the simple fact that its very catchy and has a simple but attractive tune. It is a truly commercial track with ordinary music. Throughout the song you hear the same beats and does not possess a great recall value. Few months from now you will not find 'Taxi' half as appealing as it is, now.


In comparison this album is way better than the average score in 'Sivaji: The Boss' but does not match upto his previous release 'Azhagiya Tamil Magan' IMHO.


Chinamma - 8/10
Elay - 8.5/10
I Miss You Da - 6.5/10
Marudhaani - 7.5/10
Naan Epoudhu - 7/10
Taxi Taxi - 7/10

Overall Album Rating :- 7/10 "GOOD"
