Music Review: Chintakayala Ravi

I have a strange habit towards writing. If I got hell lot of work to do, my mind would be overflowing with creativity and I would somehow catch some time to put my thoughts in words. And when I actually have time to pursue my hobby, ideas just don’t pop out at all. That is my condition now. Anyway I have been postponing writing this music review of Chintakayala Ravi for a long time now.

If there is any actor I would love to watch in an out and out comedy flick, it is Victory Venkatesh. He is an actor with perfect comedy timing and trademark gestures that would drive the audiences into raptures. He won the hearts of the audience with his superb performance in the almost classic cult movies Nuvvu Naku Nachav, Malleswari and Premante Idera. If he is getting ready for one more comedy flick, it would be worth the watch. This time he introduces Vishal Sekhar duo who are storming the charts in Bollywood to the Telugu audience. Venkatesh declared in his interview to the media that this is the best music album in his career. You may not feel so after listening to it, atleast I did not feel so. It is in no way better than many of his musical hits. How can we rate this album above AMAV, Coolie Number 1 and Vasu? Very few songs can compete with the beautifully composed “Naa Manasuki Pranam Posi” in AMAV. But Vishal Sekhar succeeded well where others like Sandeep Chowta failed. It did not turn out like Sandeep Chowta’s Super or Bujjigadu where you will end up wondering whether the lyrics are Telugu.

“Bagunde Bagunde” is a nice melody worth the try by the new guys from Bollywood, but definitely not in the league of the superb melodies Venkatesh’s movies have.

“Oh Sunita” is a song in which Venkatesh will be teasing Anushka. It is an Okay kind of song. These lyrics that come in the song must have been written keeping the hero’s ability to bring tears from your eyes.

Bore Kotti Film Kelte
Screenu Paina Nenu Vasta
Sceenu Marchi Edipista
Nai Chodunga Rey

“Shava Shava Balle Balle” is a fast beat which you will like and dance while hearing. However, you will be forgetting it as fast as you liked it.

“Merpula” is a song which comes out when Venkatesh and SA Raj Kumar meets together to come up with a tune. If you want to know how this hip twenty something duo came up with same kind of tunes, you should hear to their score for the song “Ajab Si” from Om Shanti Om. This is one of the best songs of the album. The interludes that come “You make my heart go” are good.

“Enduko” is the first song in the movie where Mamta Mohandas in the village and Venky in New York will be singing. It is also a good composition of the album.

“Valla Valla Baby Baby” is the pick of the album. It is a hip fast beat song that would rock the theatres and the dance floors in the coming days. With this song, Vishal Sekhar make their mark and have arrived on the Tollywood Charts.
