I cant remember the last time I liked an entire Telugu album (it was probably Pokiri). I am so happy for Devisri Prasad for scoring a winner with this album. I was too lazy to write a review for this album but I had to, after I read the pathetic review in milliblog for this movie. I loved the songs when I heard them and was blown away when I saw the videos in the movie (which I also liked).

Baby, he loves you is a simple song which emphasizes the lovely lyrics appropriately. My favorite part is the background vocals sung by the kids. Uppenantha ee premaki is one of those really hard to sing songs (with its incredible high pitch) that KK sings perfectly. I love that it has a soulful prelude which is not actively used in the song. My love is gone is my favourite song of the album with its innovative use of techno music for a sober song. Once again, the visuals for this song will blow you away, but my favourite part about the audio is the techno beat. Ringa Ringa is the first instantly likeable song in this movie, albeit the vulgar lyrics. A mass number that is typical of Devi, with his timely vocals in between; this is sure to add to Devi's mass appeal. Another thing to watch in the video; some mind-blowing dance steps by Allu Arjun. Karige Loga is a Illayaraja-styled song; which is probably the weakest link audio-wise. It however blends excellently in the movie. Mr Perfect is another loveable song with peppy vocals by Baba Sehgal. My favourite part of this song is the interlude with Devisri Prasad describing the bad qualities of "Mr Perfect" and the tabla prelude.

Just like the movie, this album has shades of Arya without being a one-to-one copy. Devi had done this earlier with the two Shankar Dada movies, where he scored a better album in the sequel. I love Devi's energy in this album and hope this kid goes more places. Thanks for making a fan happy!
