Music Review: Samar

Oru Kannil Vaegam is as templatized as a hero introduction track can get, while Azhagho Azhaghu is ear-pleasing and enjoyable in Naresh Iyer's superb rendition. Altered vocals of Yuvan Shankar Raja and an odd assortment of trance sounds work in favor of the quirky Poikkaal Kuthirai. Rajaavin Thoattathil, again, is high on electronic influences but the tune fails to take off. Vellai Maiyil is melodious no doubt, but Udit Narayan's vocals are jarring and seem to be a misfit. Shweta Mohan, however, is in good form as you'd expect. With two mildly interesting tracks, Samar is a middling offering from Yuvan.
