Composer(s): Mickey J. Meyer

S. P. Balasubrahmanyam opens Srinivasa Kalyanam with the serene hymnal-sounding Kalyanam Vaibhogam, even as Mickey J. Meyer layers the melody with soft percussion and wind instruments. Ekkada Nuvvunte, Ithadena Ithadena and Modalaudaam continue the composer's stereotypical breeziness, while Something Something Ga turns out to be a buoyant jazz-contemporary mix in Anurag Kulkarni, Shravana Bhargavi and Raashi Khanna's superlative rendition. Vinavamma Toorupu Chukka closes the album on a pleasant note, its Seethamma Vakitlo Sirimalle Chettu influences aside, superbly backed by Sunitha Upadrashta on the vocals. Mickey sticks to his comfort zone in Srinivasa Kalyanam, yet it's decidedly an improvement over Mahanati.
