A riveting solo sung by the legendary playback singer K.S.Chitra thrills the listener with its chord progression and changeovers.

Singer: Shankar Mahadevan
The high voltage playback singer Shankar Mahadevan joins the party with amazing energy levels and heavily laden riffs. However, there are less changeovers in the composition to rejoice. The song has an eeriness associated with it and at the same time leaves the listener pondering for more. The interludes are feisty with nadaswaram and rhythms section.
Sirukki Vaasam

Singer: Anand Aravindakshan, Swetha Mohan
The finale arrives in contemporary style with a trance melody sung by the ever sweet Shwetha Mohan and supported greatly by Anand’s brisk vocals. The song makes an ideal listening for a road trip for its mild strings, delicate treble and acoustic guitar. The live drumming gives the composition an easy listening tag.
