Idly Kadai Music Review – A Soulful Rural Treat from GV Prakash
Dhanush’s directorial Idly Kadai gears up for its worldwide theatrical release on October 1, and GV Prakash Kumar’s soundtrack sets the stage with a blend of rustic charm and contemporary appeal. Here’s our Idly Kadai Music Review..
Enna Sugam
Vocals: Dhanush, Shweta Mohan | Lyrics: Dhanush
A soul-stirring duet elevated by the graceful voices of Dhanush and Shweta Mohan. GV Prakash Kumar weaves a mellifluous melody with lyrical lines that flow seamlessly with the rhythm. The interludes, rich in strings and flutes, lend a distinct rural texture.
Enjaami Thandhaane
Vocals: Dhanush, Arivu | Additional Vocals: Subhlashini | Lyrics: Dhanush
Simple in rhythm yet lyrically strong, this number thrives on its earthy presentation. The chorus embellishes the song beautifully, enhancing its folk-inspired character.
En Paattan Saami Varum
Vocals: Anthony Daasan | Lyrics: Dhanush
Minimalist in instrumentation, this song relies on subtle birdsong and hauntingly simple lyrics. Likely to gain greater resonance with visuals, it recalls the understated poignancy of Poren Na Poren from Meiyazhagan.
Ethana Saami
Vocals: Pushpavanam Kuppusamy | Lyrics: Raju Murugan
A standout track, blending Qawwali-inspired rhythm with Pushpavanam Kuppusamy’s captivating voice. The interplay between vocals and flute creates a delightful conversational effect, while the chorus adds further richness.
Kulasamy Kaaval Kaaka
Vocals & Lyrics: Arivu
Despite its energy, this track lacks freshness. Arivu’s familiar rap style feels repetitive, though the song may gain impact once paired with the film’s visuals.
My Heartu Spinning
Vocals: A.R. Ameen, Subhlashini | Lyrics: Falcon
A breezy, youthful number designed for the teen audience. With Bollywood-esque flair, A.R. Ameen and Subhlashini deliver vibrance, complemented by Falcon’s catchy lyrics. Likely to be a pictorial highlight with Dhanush and Shalini Pandey.
Idly Kadai offers a soundtrack that celebrates nativity with sincerity and soul. GV Prakash Kumar keeps the presentation simple yet effective, resulting in an album that balances rural authenticity with modern appeal.
