Dil Raju has unveiled a new production house called Matinee Entertainments, under which he said that he will produce only experimental films. The first movie he is producing under this banner is the remake of yesteryear classic Maro Charitra. He has cast Varun Sandesh opposite a newcomer Anitha for this one. It is directed by a debutant Ravi Yadav. Coming to the music side, young sensation Mickey J. Meyer is the music director. The audio was released recently let's see how it turned out.
01 - Prema Prema
Singer: Karthik
Lyrics: Vanamaali
This type of song has become the trademark of Mickey. So far all his albums have had numbers like this. Still it is good number and Karthik once again is very good. The introduction is good and the lyrics are pretty good. The only downside of the song is that the "I Love You" chorus section should have better. But a good start to the album.

02 - Yee Teega Puvvuno (Female)
Singer: Shweta Pandit
Lyrics: Late Acharya Athreya
This an interesting remix. Generally, recent remixes have had the same tune as the original and have slightly adjusted lyrics. For this they have gone with exactly the same lyrics and changed the tune of the song completely. What's more, it is a pretty good tune. Shweta Pandit is very good and has become a regular in Mickey's soundtracks. It is very quite and haunting number, sure to be liked.

03 - Bale Bale Magadivoy
Singer - Shweta Pandit
Lyrics: Late Acharya Athreya & Veturi
Again they have gone with the same lyrics and changed the tune of the song. It more like a disco song now. The original had a lot of English, but interestingly they have left out all the English lyrics in this one and replaced it with humming. In fact if you ignore the lyrics, it is a completely different song. Mickey composition is ver different in this one, he is really bringing a new sound to Telugu music just like Ilaiyaraja did many years ago. I like it.

04 - Ninnu Nannu
Singers: Shweta Pandit & Sri Mathumitha
Lyrics: Vanamaali
This is a slow, soft melody which you expect Mickey to compose. A bit like "Nenani Neevani" from Kotha Bangaru Lokam. This is sure to get in your head after one listening. The whole song gets you into a trance. The only downside is the last charanam when Sri Mathumitha chips in. It is high pitch and there also a lot of music at that point which kind of changes of the whole mood of the song. It would have been better if he had maintained the same quite mood throughout the song. Otherwise, another chartbuster.

05 - We Dont Care
Singers: Ranjith, Smita & Varun Sandesh
Lyrics: Krishna Chaitanya
This a fast beat song. It is bit like "Ye Cheekati" from Happy Days. The tune is pretty catchy and so are the lyrics. I am not sure where Varun Sandesh exactly sings. Ranjith is pretty good and Smitha only comes in a chorus section. Another good number.

06 - Yee Teega Puvvuno (Male)
Singer: Karthik
Lyrics: Late Acharya Athreya
Singer: Karthik
Lyrics: Late Acharya Athreya
The introduction music is the one we heard in the trailor they released earlier. This is a sad version of the Female version. As good as the first one with Karthik doing an excellent job.
Rating: 3.25/5
Overall Rating: 3.3/5 (Very Good)
Last Words:
Mickey J. Meyer is really the new AR Rehman or Ilaiyaraja. He is bringing new sounds in each soundtrack as well as maintaining his trademark style of tunes. Dil Raju should be complemented for letting Mickey compose a predominantly melody soundtrack. The last four audio reviews I have done (Aarya 2, Leader, Ye Maaya Chesave and Maro Charitra) have all been very good soundtracks and I am happy that there is good mix of music in recent films.
My Picks:
Ninnu Nannu
