Music Review: Ordinary

Enthinee Mizhi Rendum is vintage Vidyasagar, a super-rhythmic melodious tune with its catchy flute-whistle-filled interludes (the bus conductor connection may be?) and Karthik and Shreya Ghoshal's superb vocals making it all the more appealing. The folky Sun Sun Sundhari, complemented wonderfully by Karthik and Madhu Balakrishnan, is a gorgeous listen and is easily the pick of the soundtrack. Suryasalabham rides on a more sombre orchestration, gaining purchase from K. J. Yesudas's plaintive singing, while Thechippoo, reminiscent of Vidyasagar's Sundariye Sundariye (Oru Maravathoor Kanavu), is enjoyable as is the kids chorus Chenthamara. Kanju Poyenteyee and Karutha Munthiri, both sung stupendously by Vidhyadharan, have a rustic charm and are very much listen-worthy. Vidyasagar is back in the reckoning with an extra-Ordinary soundtrack.
