Song Review: Sainikaa ('Na Peru Surya')
- IndiaGlitz, [Friday,January 26 2018]
Vishal Dadlani and his partner Shekhar Ravjiani introduce the Telugu audience to a fresh sound. For once, a tribute to the soldier doesn't smack of a music that seeks to melodramatize. It's free from old-fashioned influences, although the lyrics don't entirely break with the past.
Ramajogayya Sastry pens such rousing phrases as 'Poratam neeko veduka' and 'Dehamtho velipodhee katha, Deshamlaa migiluntundhigaa'. 'Bathuke vandemaataram' takes the cake. The soldier is a soldier not because he couldn't find some other job, we are told for good.
If he is electrifying as a musician, Vishal is booming as the song's renderer. The passionate singing is yet another plus of the patriotic number. The voice also serves the purpose of making it a non-hero number. It's about many heroes and their heroism.
'Na Peru Surya' will hit the screens on April 27. This Allu Arjun-starrer is directed by Vakkantham Vamsi.
