iTunes

Gautham Menon's new film with A.R Rahman as the composer... who wouldn't be excited? When the first single of the film "Thalli Pogathey" came out in January, we were all hoping to hear more from this album. Initially, the album was going to be released in February, but it kept on being delayed. After releasing another single "Rasaali" in May, the album was finally released on June 17th.
It contains five songs. Each song is mesmerizing, be it the music, lyrics or the soulful singing. I always believe that A.R Rahman always goes deep into the atmosphere and theme of the film, and this time he does the same!

1) Showkaali
This is the first song on the album. As soon as it starts, your mind is awake. For four minutes and 39 seconds, a song full of continous rap, Aaryan Dinesh Kanagaratnam does a tremendous job. I didn't want the song to end.

2) Idhu Naal
This is a wonderfully composed heart-touching romantic song! I love the scale changes! Aditya Rao and Jonita Gandhi sing it beautifully!

3) Rasaali
This song is a masterpiece! It is very soothing and mesmerizing! Words don't do justice to the composition and lyrics because they are wonderful! I love the classical touch in this song! Sathyaprakash Dharmar and Shaasha Thirupathi sung it so beautifully! This is my pick of the album!

4) Avalum Naanum
Another masterpiece! Very soothing song! It makes you feel so calm and relaxed! Just like his father, Vijay Yesudas sang it very soulfully! The lyrics are so beautiful! My second pick of the album!

5) Thalli Pogathey
This is the first single of the album, a song that I could keep listening on loop, even now! It is very catchy and addictive! Sid Sriram's voice is amazing, and the Aaryan Dinesh Kanagaratnam's amazing rapping and humming by Aparna Narayanan makes the song even better!


Most people keep saying that they miss A.R Rahman's 90's songs and they were much better. But I can say that this album will give you the same feeling as his 90's music! It's fresh, just like most A.R Rahman albums!

After being disappointed by his previous album "24" earlier this year, he's back with a bang with "Achcham Yenbadhu Madamiyada"! So please do listen to this album!

My Rating:- 3.5/5

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
