Engeyum Kadhal Music Review


Engeyum Kadhal - Anytime, Anywhere Lovable

‘Engeyum Kadhal’ is a breezy romance written and directed by Prabhu Deva.

It is produced by Kalpathi S. Agoram.

It stars ‘Jayam’ Ravi and Hansika Motwani.

The film started with the title ‘Ich’ but was finally changed to ‘Engeyum Kadhal’.

Music of the film is by Harris Jayaraj.

The songs were composed as early as the Christmas season in 2009.

Prabhu Deva and Harris Jayaraj had gone to Sydney, Australia for the compositions.

The soundtrack was launched on November 8 exactly ten years after

Harris Jayaraj's first album‘Minnale’ arrived.

‘Engeyum Kadhal’ has seven songs tuned by Harris Jayaraj and there’s no

Bombay Jayashree in it. Otherwise it is a regular Harris magical.

1. Engeyum Kadhal

Singers: Aalaap Raju Devan, Ranina Reddy

Lyrics: Thamarai


The title song is a fabulous beginning to the album.

Though reminds of ‘June Ponaal….the pure romantic elements in Harris’ musical nuances

and Thamarai’s fine words cuddle you and don’t leave you till the end. Close your eyes and

listen to this song, it is a dream you doesn’t want to end.

Simple leisurely rhythms and arrangements held by guitars and drum kit makes this an

important song. An intangible romantic feeling is created by Aalaap Raju's lovely vocals and

the additional vocals by Devan,Ranina Reddy elevates the song to

a blue rock ballad. Must hear Pick of the Pack.



2. Thee Illai…

Singers: Naresh Iyer, Mahathi, Gopal Rao, Ranina Reddy

Lyrics: Vaali

“Theeyillai” is a swiftly made situational number. Harris has made the male and female

singers shift to different scales on and off that is interesting. The interlude choruses are

Harris specialties. Naresh Iyer and Mahathi have done a great job.

A slow romantic duet but should not stay back with the premium classes only.


3. Nangaai…

Singers: Richard, Rahul Nambiar, Naveen Madava

Lyrics: Vaali

Richard screams with Harris turning to Michael Jackson for inspiration.

A peppy hip-hop rock, filled with tricks but is certainly catchy. Loaded western beats

with a sudden kuthu rap bits in between is a new genre. 80 years old Vaali is very young

and you can see that in this song.


4. Lolita…

Singers: Karthik, Prashanthini

Lyrics: Thamarai

Harris assembles good metallic tones for this song. Karthik’s dependable and

Prashanthini’s respectable vocals hold this song in esteem. No great interpretations

tried and that’s not different also. Thamarai’slyric is the magnetism of this regular Harris number.



5. Bathing at Cannes…

Singers: Emcee Jesz, Kash n’ Krissy, Raninia Reddy

Lyrics: Emcee Jesz, Kash

A short techno-rap that must have been kept in the film for a purpose best known

to the film’s director Prabhu Deva. Kash n’ Krissy is noticed better as they have become

very popular with ‘Irumbile Oru Irudhayam’ song from Endhiran.








6. Nenjil Nenjil

Singers: Harish Raghavendra, Chinmayi

Lyrics: Madan Karky

“Nenjil Nenjil” sounds a return to good old serious romantic numbers with a

classical touch. Simmering drums and classy flute at the back gives you the

80s great feelings. Chinmayi has done what Bombay Jayashree does to

Harris songs usually. Madan Karky who electrified with his sci-fi love thoughts

is very rooted to reality in this. A wonderful tune with words immersed in love,

Harish Raghavendra and Chinmayi’s swaying vocals are picks of this great number.



7. Dhimu Dhimu…

Singer: Karthik

Lyrics: Na. Muthukumar

In “Dhimu Dhimu”, Harris’ guitars invite you into the song right at the outset.

It later rides on the shoulders of Karthik. Na. Muthukumar’s lyric as usual is

romantic and persuading. A slight tint of ‘Nenjukkul Peithidum Mamalzhai’ is seen

but that doesn’t stop you from liking this song. Overall, ‘Engeyum Kadhal’ is one of

the best albums of this year. All the songs bear Harris’ stamp and Engeyum Kadhal

and Nenjil Nenjil stand out to be real melodies. Harris has done his job perfectly and

waiting to see how romantic Prabhu Deva has presented the songs on celluloid.

Australia v Sri Lanka, 2nd ODI, Sydney


Sri Lanka break series drought on rainy night

November 5, 2010


Sri Lanka 3 for 213 (Tharanga 86*) beat Australia 210 (Watson 40) by 29 runs on D/L method
Scorecard and ball-by-ball details

Upul Tharanga shows his style with a pull shot, Australia v Sri Lanka, 2nd ODI, Sydney, November 5, 2010
Upul Tharanga set up Sri Lanka's success with a composed 86 not out



Sri Lanka came on this tour with one goal and achieved it with a match to spare. By handing Australia a seventh straight defeat, Kumar Sangakkara's men delivered their maiden series win in Australia in 26 years of trying. When the hosts slipped over for 210 in the greasy conditions it gave Sri Lanka victory by 29 runs - and it had come more easily than expected.

There was much to like about Sri Lanka's play in a match regularly threatened by rain, but there was little to inspire the hosts as they head to Brisbane for Sunday's dead rubber. The only time the visitors struggled was in the first two overs of the match - when they didn't score - but once the openers Upul Tharanga, who held the innings together with 86 not out, and Tillakaratne Dilshan got going there was nothing that could stop them. Not even the weather.

The rain disrupted Sri Lanka's innings twice as it finished early at 3 for 213 in 41.1 overs, but Australia's target was quickly inflated to 244 in 39 overs under the Duckworth Lewis method. The calculations added more difficulty to what was already a tricky pursuit in a seamer-friendly environment, and they began needing more than a run a ball. A short rain break towards the end trimmed another over from the match and reduced the target to 240. It didn't help.

Mistakes came quickly, starting with Brad Haddin's flash at a Nuwan Kulasekara inswinger and the knocking back of his

middle stump. Ricky Ponting (10) fell hooking, just as he did so often last sum

mer, and when Michael Clarke's (25) attempted pull ended up with a lunging Muttiah Muralitharan at third man, Australia were 4 for 80 and the game was heading one way.

Murali then watched Michael Hussey tap a catch to deep mid-off, a wicket which came after Shane Watson had missed a sweep on 40 to be lbw. He finished with 2 for 30 off seven while Thisara Perera, Suraj Randiv and Kulasekara also claimed two victims. Cameron White (35) and Steven Smith (33) could not achieve the miracle, especially when Lasith Malinga was varying his pace superbly.

Sri Lanka were 2 for 161 off 34 overs when the weather intervened for the first time, chopping five overs from their original allocation, and they finished in a rush before the clouds reopened. Tharanga ensured Sri Lanka built on the high gained from their stunning victory in Melbourne on Wednesday as he put on 98 for the first wicket with Dilshan.

The 70-run stand between the captain Kumar Sangakkara and Tharanga was starting to warm up when the rain arrived for the first time. Instead of acceleration, the ground received 90 minutes of saturation. Sangakkara (45) sliced Watson (2 for 45) to Clint McKay at third man before Angelo Mathews, the hero from the first game, provided a timely surge by swinging to 17 off 11.

Tharanga, who was comfortable chipping over the infield, was the slower partner alongside Dilshan, but he ended up in the lead role during his 112-ball stay. His half-century came up with two lofted boundaries to the legside off Nathan Hauritz and there were six fours in his display.

While his innings was highly worthy, Tharanga was dropped on 61 by Haddin and also survived a comical run-out attempt when stranded at the wrong end on 76. Haddin's throw flew over the bowler Watson's head before Clarke backed up and shied at the bowler's end. His on-target effort hit the leg of Watson, who was trying to get out of the way of the stumps, and Tharanga eventually regained his ground. It is a moment that will be replayed often until Australia can show they are a committed, unified and successful unit.

After Australia's bowling troubles in their awful loss in Melbourne, they demoted the spinner Xavier Doherty to 12th man despite his four-wicket debut, and also dropped John Hastings. The replacements didn't create a sudden shift in the team's fortunes.

McKay (0 for 42) came in to take the new ball and was steady, while Hauritz showed some useful signs in picking up 1 for 49 from nine overs. Mitchell Johnson gave away 11 runs in his first over while Peter Siddle was handy without being dangerous.

While there only 11,495 watching at the ground, Australia's seventh consecutive loss in all forms of the game will be noticed by everyone. England are in Perth, having started well in their tour opener, and can see a host of Ashes weaknesses. Over in Colombo there will be celebrations for the Sri Lankan team after their biggest obstacle ended up being the weather.
