Aruvi - Anbin Kodi
Composed by Bindhu Malini and Vedanth Bharadwaj
Lyrics Kutti Revathi
Illustration: Nivedita Sivaprakash
Animation: Somashekar Pushparaj
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EVQJN6ATm5U
Anbin Kodi from Aruvi is one of the rare song teaser used for a promotion of a film that put a smile on my face. An excellent spiral graphics work using a high-end texture that creates a physical illusion and continues to play a leading role in modeling of all types of visual elements. In this competitive world where everyone carries a propaganda flag above their film advertisements, Aruvi flows like a stream of fresh water as a musical mind-reading. The moving images portray the reality as well as the dream of a child growing into a woman - sketching the dissimilarities between a thought and a feeling. The journey she takes inside her mind is expressed within the graphic animation coupled together with words enchanting the entire dream-like sequence. The acoustic guitar riffs & licks follow the entire song developing a mood essential for creativity, expression and liberation.

Rathina Katti from Meyaadha Maan
Music : Santhosh Narayanan
Singer: Dhee
Lyrics : Vivek
Solo violins: Phil Hartl
Piano: Santhosh Narayanan
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z01wXbI6JVc
Ey Sandakara from Irudhi Sutru has flirty violins accompanying the vocal and joined by the flute, together exploring the cinematic fondness of a student on her coach. Rathina Katti sounds more like a duet between the violin and the piano accompanied by the vocal. Dhee’s voice articulates emotion. Hats off Dhee.
Santosh Narayanan carries forward his unique style of blues minus soul music. He elegantly replaces it with our native folk (& classical) music emphasizing on the accent and picking up quintessential lyrics. With Rathina Katti, he explores ragtime piano.
This song took me straight back to Ben E. King's 'Stand by me' :
