Song Review: 'Mandaara' ('Bhaagamathie')

  • IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,January 18 2018]

Sreejo's lyrics bring out the thinking of the lover girl in a vividly poetic language. Her blithesome following of her lover's shadow and the sense of wonderment at an unanswered question are profound. 'Oopiri kooda uliki padela' takes the cake for its sheer depth.

Who better than the redoubtable Shreya Ghoshal to render such an unalloyed melody? With her soulful rendition, the talented singer brings the lyrics to life.

SS Thaman employs Veena (by Rajesh Vaidhya) and Nadaswaram (by Tirumoorthi), among others, to enrich the number. We are told that 'Mandaara' was recorded at Ramoji Film City (Hyderabad), Yash Raj Film Studios (Mumbai), Music Lounge and V studios (Chennai).

'Bhaagamathie', starring Anushka, Unni Mukundan, Jayaram, Asha Sarath, Prabhas Srinu, Murali Sharma, Vidyullekha Raman, Dhanraj and others, will hit the screens on Jan 26.
