Aha Naa Pellanta Audio Review

For an actor who does movie after movie, Allari Naresh doesn't really have the kind of musical hits that most of his other counterparts are proud of. However, Aha Naa Pellanta may just give Naresh his best song so far, and for that he will have to thank music director Raghu Kunche.

1. Subrahmanyam
Singers: Raghu Kunche , Dr. Srihari, Bhaskarabhatla
Lyrics: Bhaskarabhatla

Raghu Kunche's first song in Aha Naa Pellana starts off with his recent hit, Enduke Ramanamma from Bumper Offer. While the former was a song about avoiding marriage, Subrahmanyam is a song that gives all the outworldy reasons to get a man married. It is a complete folk song, with a complete Telangana feel to it. Now, when you have actor Srihari contributing to a song, you'd expect it that way won't you? It's got the beat, it's got the pulse and reminds us of the old song Nizam Sarkaroda. On the whole its a good dance number with catchy lyrics.

2. Nuvve
Singers: Chitra
Lyrics: Sirasri

In quite a contrast from the previous song, Nuvve is a slow love song with easy but well written lyrics. Raghu Kunche keeps the tune and composition completely simple, with works of guitar, flute and violins sprinkled across it. His work on the bass is very much noticeable. However, it is Chitra's voice that takes the song to a completely different level. She brings in all her experience to make it sound the way it does. Definitely interesting.

3.Left Chusthey
Singers: Venu, Simha, Bhargavi Pillai
Lyrics: Bhuvanachandra

Left Chusthey sounds like a typical Telugu movie song, with a mix of English words, sung well by Bhargavi Pillai. Bhuvanachandra's lyrics aren't exciting, but efforts of Raghu Kunche are quite visible, (well audible to be exact!)

4. Vennela Deepam
Singers: Raghu Kunche
Lyrics: Sirasri

Vennela Deepam is the male rendition of Nuvve. The good things about the composition have already been mentioned. However, it is nice to notice that the lyric writer has been consistent in maintaing the 'lovelorn' theme. Raghu Kunche is no Chitra, but he definitely delivers goods with this song.

5.Chinukularali (Remix)
Singers: Raghu Kunche, Anjana Sowmya, Febe Martin, Chaitra, Revanth
Lyrics: Veturi

Original Composer: Sri Rajan Nagendra Chinukularali was a big hit, and Raghu Kunche's remix doesn't destroy its spirit as many others who seem to mess up old songs. He takes the beauty of the song, and gives it a modern feel with the latest percussion and especially the more noticable guitars. No one from the singer tries to out do S.P. Balu or P. Susheela who lent their voices to Late Veturi's fine 'word-work'.

6.Saturday Evening
Singers: Prithvi Chandra, Anudeep, Neol
Lyrics: Ramajogayya Shastri

The final song of this album is a definite timepass number. For its complete western feel the basic tune is too slow, and Ramajogayya's lyrics don't add anything new. Neither the rap, nor the electric guitars give it the necessary push.

Final Point : To summarize it all the music of Aha Naa Pellanta isn't out and out super hit music, but is has its good numbers. The slow numbers Nuvve, Vennela Deepam are good while Subrahmanyam is definitely catchy. It will be interesting to see how the audiences will like the album.
