Music Review: Genius (Tamil)

Composer(s): Yuvan Shankar Raja
Listen to the songs online here: Saavn

The mellifluous Silu Silu Silu Sil comes in three different versions, but Al Rufian is no match for the other two, and he sounds far from appealing, but the song comes through beautifully in Sadhana Sargam's splendid singing, backed by a strings-led orchestration. Vilaiyadu Magane's percussive-heavy fusion gains immensely from the vocals of Priya Himesh, Srivardhini and Surmukhi, while Neengalum Oorum is classic YSR, a breezy melody with the guitars leading the way and superbly supported by Srikanth and Priya Mali. There is perhaps nothing ground-breaking about Genius, but Yuvan manages to deliver an engaging, melodious package.
