Song Review: Adiga Adiga ('Ninnu Kori')

  • IndiaGlitz, [Saturday,May 27 2017]

Ninnu Kori's first single doesn't come routinely, but with an act of its male lead. By releasing a song that mirrors the longing of the lover boy in ample measure, the makers must be looking at positioning the film as an out-and-out, serious-minded romantic drama (as against a halting rom-com).

Sid Sriram's vocals are eminently Kollywoodish/Mollywoodish. This style of offbeat singing became many a Tamil director's choice in the last decade. Since Gopi Sunder is the one at the helm, he has brought back the genre. As long as it doesn't seem affected or offbeat for the sake of it, it's fine.

Srijo's lyrics abound in both straightforward meaning as well as profundity. Thanks to the music director's soft tunes and understated composition, the lyrics are properly elevated.
