Vandha Mala
Singers: Gaana Bala, Karunaas, Arun Raja Kamaraj
Lyrics: Arun Raja Kamaraj
It’s quite an enjoyable Gana number that comes with funny lines like Vandha Mala, Pona mudi katti ilu Darling. Gaana Bala and Karunaas together make the song more emblazoning and it should pep up with more intensity on the screens.
Unnale
Singers: Shankar Mahadevan & Shreya Ghoshal
Lyrics: Na. Muthukumar
It’s been a very long time we heard such melodies from GV Prakash and yes, the song sways into our senses. Soul stirring vocalism by Shreya Ghoshal and it sweeps us completely into sleep mode. So much pleasing and a compelling pleasant sweet poison could be the best words to describe this track.
Sattena Idi Mazhai
Singers: GV Prakash & Megha
Lyrics: Na. Muthukumar
In simple words, it’s slightly passable and doesn’t evoke the right senses of feeling as it happens with rest of the songs. Not an appealing one.
A Vizhigalil
Singer: Harini
Lyrics: Na. Muthukumar
So melodic and soft killing tracks that has a tranquilising power by Harini. She leaves us spellbound and transfixed with our senses. She had earlier made a tremendous impact with Pookal Pookkum from Madarasapattinam. Now she sweeps with an impeccable impact.
Anbe Anbe
Singer: GV Prakash Kumar
Lyrics: Na. Muthukumar
Apart from just claiming this to be a melodious treat, this sounds like a soul communicating with the other one. So appealing and fantabulous with instrumentals on mild notes enhancing the feel of this track.
The Dead are back
Darling theme music
Every horror begins with a door opening and this track doesn’t miss to offer such effects followed by clock sound and scaring yelling of a ghost lady. Let us see how it works with the visuals.
On the whole, Darling album has some commendable numbers. With fast-track ones not appealing to the senses, the melodious tunes keeps us addicted to hear it over and again.
Verdict: After a long time, it’s a melodious treat from GVP
