Kuruvi Music Review - Galatta

Padma Iyer [April 19, 2008, 3:18:47 PM]

Kuruvi, directed by Dharani and produced by Udhayanidhi Stalin, has raised a lot of expectations. The hit team of Ghilli, comprising Vijay, Trisha, Dharani and Vidyasagar, is coming together for the romantic action movie. Recently, the audio release of Kuruvi took place in a grand fashion in Chennai. Now, Vidyasagar's rocking numbers have added to the fans' jubilation.'Happy New Year', the first song in the album, bursts with joy and gusto. Sung by Sunidhi Chauhan, Yogi and Dr. Burn, the song has a colourful mood and an infectious energy level. Towards the second part, the tempo picks up and it truly becomes a musical carnival!

The Kuruvi theme track is an interesting blend of different styles of music. One can recognize a bit of folk style here and a hint of western touch there in its tunes. Dr. Burn, Praveen Mani and Ranina render it.

'Mozhamozhannu' begins with Kay Kay and Anuradha Sriram's voices. It is a typical folk song with a traditional folksy touch. Replete with heavy beats and novel lingo, the song is punchy and in Vijay's signature style. Anuradha's voice modulates with an appropriate accent and tempo. Kay Kay's vocal support is a value addition to the song.

Rajalakshmi and Vidyasagar just rejoice while singing 'Palanadhu Palaanadhu'. Based on a pacey tune, its lyrics praise the hero and make every one dance.

'Thaen Thaen Thaen' is in Udit Narayan and Shreya Goshal's honey-sweet voices. A lovely duet, the song is based on a subtle and soothing tune and has very melodious background music.

'Dandaana Darna' is a dapankoothu sung by Sangeet Haldipur. The song's lyrics are a lure and certainly warrant praise. Cheery and motivational, the song celebrates the country's natural wealth and resources.

The Kuruvi album is a collection of peppy dance numbers and caters to listeners' favourite tastes. What more can a Vijay fan ask for?

Kuruvi Music Review - Indiaglitz

Kuruvi - A loud chirp
IndiaGlitz [Saturday, April 19, 2008]

Dharani, Vijay and Vidyasagar share an excellent rapport between them. It was evident in 'Gilli', which had a catchy music and went on to become a blockbuster.

Now the trio comes together again for `Kuruvi'. Obviously expectations are high on the movie. The audio of the movie promises to live up to all the hype and hoopla.

The album has six tracks including theme music. Vidyasagar has managed to come up with songs, which are bundle of energy and foot-tapping. The likes of Yogi, Dr Burn, Anuradha Sreeram, Sangeeth Haldipur and Vidyasagar himself have lent their voice.

Produced by Udhayanidhi Stalin, `Kuruvi' has songs which are foot-tapping and energetic.

Happy New Year ( Sunidhi Chauhan, Yogi, Dr Burn)

Music composer Vidyasagar makes a heady start. A perfect opening in the album, it sets the right mood for the listeners. Acclaimed rap singers Yogi and Dr Burn render the song in the company of Sunidhi Chauhan.

Penned by Na Muthukumar, it has a pacy music with addition rhythm. The rap interludes in between are very catchy.

Dandana Dara (Sangeeth Haldipur)

A perfect 'kuthu' song. Oozing with energy all through, the song has everything a front-bencher would jump and shake his legs in theatres. With Vijay on screen, such high-pitched song is sure to woo audience.

Sangeeth Haldipur is a perfect foil to render the song. A lyric by Kabilan, which glorifies the hero, is adequate.

Thaen Thaen (Udit Narayan, Shreya Ghosal)

It is a soft romantic number. Udit's open-throated voice in the company of Shreya Ghosal's mesmerizing way of rendering of the duet sticks to our hearts immediately.

This song sticks to a pattern. It flows free and smooth from the beginning. The soft beats and good use of guitar in the interludes are good. Yugabharathy's lyrics are noteworthy.

Paalaanadhu Paalaanadhu (Vidyasagar, Rajalakshmi)

Vidyasagar has tried to marry East and the West. The song begins with typical Chennai percussion instruments. However it shifts gears to take a western beat with Vidyasagar and Rajalakshmi, going all guns to render a song which is sure to find a place in all dance floors. In between the Punjabi Bhangra music is used well by Vidyasagar. Pa Vijay has penned the song.

Mozha Mozhanu (KK , Anuradha Sreeram)

It is customary for every Vijay film to have a peppy song which will be laced with fast beats and racy tune. Mozha Mozhannu is one such number which Anuradha Sreeram and KK rendering the number with amazing energy.

Pa Vijay's youthful lyric gets subdued in the heavy music of Vidyasagar. But the use of additional percussion instruments and racy rhythms are the major highlights of the song.

Gilli's magic triumvirate returns!

The film also sees the entry of politician Karunanidhi's grandson and M K Stalin's son, Udhayanidhi Stalin, as the film's producer.
Politicians debuting in Tamil cinema is not a new thing. In the past M Karunanidhi, MGR, Jayalalitha, Vijayakanth and Sarath Kumar have all entered filmdom in a big way.

Dharani has made two hugely successful films, Dhil and Dhool with his classmate Vikram as the hero. Both studied Bachelor of English at Loyola.
Like the audio launches of his earlier films, Dharani also released Kuruvi's album at the Little Flower Convent, a school for the speech and hearing impaired.

Vikram also turned up for the event as also the young action hero Vishal.
Dharani has a penchant for small titles -- Dhool, Dhil and Gilli. Kuruvi follows the same pattern. The film's tag line is 'Where eagles dare. So go figure'.

Music director Vidyasagar who made the smash hit Appadi Podu from Gilli has also done the music for Kuruvi.

'Kuruvi' equals two 'Gilli': Vijay’s hopes

Cinesouth.com
- 17.04.2008 Vijay

'Kuruvi' audio release took a different and simple turn in that the songs were introduced by the press people and a donation was given to the school for the deaf and dumb.

Minister MK Stalin's son Udhayanidhi produces the film 'Kuruvi.' The film that unites Dharani and Vijay for the second time for which Vidyasagar has composed music.

The audio release function was held yesterday at the Little Flower School for the Deaf and Dumb. "I have always held the audio release functions only here. Because I know how I suffered when I had my leg problem. I thought I should make these children happy." Saying this, Dharani made a donation on behalf of the producer to the school authorities.

The five songs featuring in the film were introduced by the media persons as Dharani's close friend Vikram, Vishal, heroine of the film Trisha, Vivek, Ashish Vidhyarthi and London Karuna attended the function. Vikram then released the audio cassette that was received by Vishal.

Three out of all songs in a Vidyasagar composed film would always be melodies. But in 'Kuruvi', except for one song, all other numbers are of fast track. Vidyasagar, has for the first time sang a song in this film.

As he was in a hurry to leave, Vikram spoke first. He said, "There is no doubt that Vijay-Dharani combination has always been a super hit. The chemistry between Vijay and Trisha is also good. I listened to the songs and I liked all of them. My best wishes for the success of the film." Having said that, Vikram took leave.
Vijay, Vishal, Vikram
Vishal said, "In all the parties I take part, I always dance to the songs of Vijay. For another four years, I will be dancing to the tunes of 'Kuruvi' songs".

The last to speak, Vijay said, "The four of us - director Dharani, I, Trisha and Vidyasagar worked in 'Gilli.' I am hopeful that this film would be a success like that film. When I am acting in a film, my inner conscience will tell me that a film will be a success. For this film too, I feel like that. 'Kuruvi' will be twice a success like that of 'Gilli'.

Producer Udhayanidhi spoke first and Dharani gave a vote of thanks.

Kuruvi’s low profile launch!

By Behindwoods News Bureau.
April 16, 2008

Kuruvi’s audio launch was held today at the Little Flower Convent in Chennai sans the usual fanfare despite the buzz surrounding the movie. The low key affair, held in the school for hearing and speech impaired, witnessed minimal star participation.

As a novel attempt, the audio was released to senior journalists from renowned dailies like Daily Thanthi and The Hindu. Gangadaran from Daily Thanthi and S.R. Ashokkumar from The Hindu released the album to the students of the academy. Representatives from other media houses like Sun TV also participated in the event. Vijay and Sangeetha, Vikram, Vishal, Trisha, producer Udhayanithi and his wife, and director Dharani are the other celebrities spotted at the event.
Kuruvi

Addressing the gathering, director Dharani revealed that he has reason to hold the event in a school for physically challenged. “Once, I met with an accident and was immobile for a few months. That was when I realized how tough it was to lead the life of a physically challenged person,” he reminisced.

Dharani also declared that Kuruvi has every aspect to woo the audience. Kuruvi is scored by Vidyasagar and is slated for a May release.

Glitterati Of Stars At ‘Kuruvi’ Audio Launch

IndiaGlitz
[Wednesday, April 16, 2008]

The glittering stars of Kollywood gathered at the Little Flower Convent in Chennai for the audio launch of ‘Kuruvi’ on Wednesday.

Directed by Dharani and produced by Udhayanidhi Stalin, grandson of Chief Minister M Karunanidhi, the movie has musical score by Vidyasagar. Vijay, Trisha, Dharani and Vidyasagar, who formed part of the blockbuster ‘Gilli’ before, exuded confidence that ‘Kuruvi’ too will become a big hit.

Speaking at the audio launch, Udhayanidhi Stalin said, 'I decided to turn a producer after seeing ‘Gilli’. I approached Vijay and he agreed to be part of my maiden production venture'. Heaping laurels on Udhayanidhi, Vijay said, 'He is a commendable producer, who has a penchant for quality entertainers. He knows the nuances of film-making'.

Vikram said, 'Vijay and Dharani share an excellent rapport. ‘Kuruvi’ will be another feather in their cap.' On his part said, Vishal said, 'The songs are catchy and enthusiastic. Vidyasgar's tunes are always catchy'.

Actors Vivek, Ashish Vidyarthi, producer London Karunas, actress Trisha among others were present on the occasion.

Kuruvi - The Audio Review

It is a very well known fact that Vijay's film songs are 50% audio and 50% visuals. Yet another known fact is that songs of Dharani-Vidyasagar combo are strictly for mass, and it has been proved through films like Dhool, Ghilli and Bangaram. That said, the trio of Vijay-Dharani-Vidhyasagar have delivered in "Kuruvi" more than what is expected out of them - An album that satisfies all Vijay fans and a good time pass for neutral fans.
Peppy, loud and full of energy, it is the right mix for Vijay fans if you leave aside senseless comparisions with things of past. Anyone who listens to the album in a low mood is sure to get an high spirit, to say the least. It is definitely a break away from the usual class-melody routine that Vidhyasagar has been through for the past couple of years.

Now over to the songs....

Happy New Year
Singers: Sunidhi Chauhan, Yogi B, Dr.Burn

Lyrics: Na. Muthukumar


The album starts with a loud bang with this number which I call in my terms as "Techno Kuthu". Sunidhi singing Tamil folk is something new and she is brilliant as ever. The Tamil Rap by Yogi B and Dr.Burn is equally enjoyable. The heavy percussions provide the perfect accompaniment for the song.

Rating: 8.5/10

Dandaana Darna
Lyrics: Kabilan

Singers: Sangeeth Haldipur


This is the third time in a row we get to hear Vijay's intro song in a different voice than the usual Shankar Mahadevan/Tippu. Use of new voice renders a fresh feel to the song and Vidhyasagar has rightly taken a note of this aspect. Sangeeth Haldipur, the famous Marathi music composer/singer and part of Channel [V] Pop stars 2, does the honours this time. For a first time non-Tamilian singer, he has managed to do a good job and delivered what is required of him - right feel, energy and heavy throated singing. What Pokkiri Pongal is for Pokkiri, Dandaana Darna is for Kurvi.

Rating: 8.5/10

Thaen Thaen Thaen
Lyrics: Yugabharathi

Singers: Udit Narayanan, Shreya Ghosal


Vidhyasagar's melodies always have a unique feel to it and he is at his usual best here too. The hindustani tune with Arabian style of orchestration gives the song a lilting touch. Shreya Ghosal yet again proves that nothing is sweeter than her voice, while Udit Narayanan too does a good job if you can forgive his awkward diction at a few places. This is one song that has the right elements to attract anyone after first few listenings. A slow poison.

Rating: 9/10

Palaanadhu Palaanadhu
Lyrics: Pa. Vijay

Singers: Vidhyasagar, S. Rajalakshmi


If you loved Thottu Thottu Pesum Sulthana(Edhirum Pudhirum) or Ithunoondu Muthathile(Dhool) of Dharani-Vidhyasagar combo, you will surely love this too. Composed in Bhangra style with lots of techno beats mixed with the Punjabi Dhol, this song will leave you dancing for the exitement it provides is magical. Thankfully, Vidhyasagar has chosen the right song for him to sing and Rajalakshmi of "Kokku Para Para" fame does a good job too.

Rating: 8/10

Theme Music
Lyrics: Na. Muthukumar

Singers: Praveen Mani, Dr Burn, Ranina and Suvi


With varying paces, possibly to be used at various situations in the film, this a rocking music bit filled with lots of mass lyrics, that will leave Vijay fans mesmerised. You may get a feel of Kabadi Kabadi of Ghilli westernised, but this song has more than that to offer. The heavy guitar fused with traditional folk percussions does what it is intended to do - rushing up the adrenaline.

Rating: 8/10

Mozha Mozhanu
Lyrics: Pa. Vijay
Singers: K.K, Anuradha Sriram


The least best is saved for the last. This is a song whose success is heavily dependent on the picturisation because the music has nothing great to talk about. Vidhyasagar-KK-Anuradha combo of the unforgettable Appadi Podu has done a mediocre job here. The disappointment leaves you searching for Srikanth Deva or Dheena as Guest composers in the credits. Completely folk in all aspects, this is clearly targetted for front benchers. Nothing without a reason, visuals will speak on that.

Rating: 6.5/10

Pluses: Fresh voices, simple and neat presentation
Minuses: Lyrics are mediocre, songs are targeted only at the youth

Overall Rating: 8/10

Verdict: Rocking!!!

Vijay is `Singam' now

IndiaGlitz
[Monday, April 14, 2008]


Vijay is eagerly awaiting the release of his next `Kuruvi'. The movie produced by Udhayanidhi Stalin and directed by Dharani, will be a summer special.

Vijay and Trisha have been to New Zealand to shake their legs for a song composed by Vidyasagar.

After completing `Kuruvi', Vijay will once again join hands with Prabhudeva. The duo teamed up to render a hit in `Pokirri'.

Their forthcoming venture tentatively titled `Singam' will go to floors once Prabhudeva completes the Hindi version of `Pokirri'.

Prabhudeva says, 'Quite like `Pokkiri', `Singam' will be a racy entertainer. When I narrated the storyline to Vijay, he immediately expressed his consent to act in it".

Vijay and Prabhu Deva’s Singam

By Behindwoods News Bureau.
April 14, 2008

Director Dharani’s Kuruvi with Vijay and Trisha is nearing completion and all eyes are on Ilaya Thalapathi as to what his next project would be. Well, the announcement was made some days ago that he has signed on the dotted lines to star in a venture that would be directed by Prabhu Deva. Nayanthara has bagged the female lead role in this film.
Vijay
With the story and script ready, the title of the movie has been registered as Singam. As some believe that the title was registered tentatively, an official word on the confirmation of the name Singam is expected anytime soon.

With the Vijay - Prabhu Deva duo’s earlier venture Pokkiri having been declared a hit, Singam is also expected to raise the bar among fans.

Thala Vs Thalapathy & Big Vs Younger brother

Pokkiri is amongst Vijay’s biggest hits and who was the man wielding the mega-phone? The man who is fondly called India’s Michael Jackson – Prabhudeva! His hits in Telugu and the stupendous success of the Tamil Pokkiri have proven he can more than twist his body!

After the wondrous success of Ajith’s Billa, Vijay fans have invested all their hope in his upcoming Kuruvi which is being made by the same crew that gave Vijay’s other super hit Gilli! But news about Singam, Prabhu Deva’s next flick with Vijay has hit the grapevine and is spreading like wild fire. Looks like Vijay has a back-up, just in case!

But there’s one more angle to this. If Prabhu Deva is directing Vijay’s next film and Raju Sundaram is directing Ajith’s next, the competition has changed dimension altogether! It is Thalai Vs Ilayathalpathy and also Big Brother Vs Younger Brother!

But we must remember that most often all the competition is only amidst the fans. Most stars are way above it all!

Oh! No… Not Vijay… says Dhanush

By Behindwoods News Bureau.
April 11, 2008

Dhanush was recently interviewed by a popular Tamil weekly in which the actor answered many questions candidly. Some of the questions were like: Would you act as a villain in a Rajinikanth film? Which of the three actresses do you like the most – Trisha, Asin or Nayanthara?

Though Dhanush did not expect the question – Would you dance with Ilaya Thalapathy Vijay for a song… his apprehension was evident when he replied that he would prefer to appear in guest role rather than dance with Vijay as the latter has mastered the art so well and it would be
impossible to match his performance.

Vijay fans donate wheel chairs to Government Medical College

Courtesy: THE HINDU


















BENEVOLENT: Members of Tiruchi district Vijay Fans’ Association donating wheel chairs and stretchers to K.A.P.Viswanatham Government Medical College Hospital in Tiruchi.


TIRUCHI: Keeping up with the custom of carrying out social welfare activities on special occasions, the members of Tiruchi District Vijay Fans’ Association took up similar initiatives on Sunday, as part of the 16th annual day celebrations of the association.

The fans donated wheel chairs, wheel stretchers and mats to Tiruchi K. A. P. Viswanatham Government Medical College Hospital. Distribution of other welfare assistance, including free saris to the needy and uniforms to poor students, were also a part of the celebrations.

“Vijay always wanted his fans to be socially responsible and lend a helping hand to the poor. Over the years we have been doing our bit,” says association president R.K. Raja.

Similar functions were organised by the members of Thottiyam and Tiruverambur union Vijay fans’ associations.
