For a sci-fi, this romantic song goes the whole hog in sounding quite fashionable. Ramajogayya Sastry's lyrics draw from the world of the lead pair, including their WhatsApping et al. While emojis are meant to reflect our mood, for once, they are transposed onto the real faces! The use of English-language words/phrases like 'so-so' to a meaningful effect is impressive.

Singers Anurag Kulkarni and Sahithi prove they are more than gifted. Their sprightly vocals make the number all the more lively and endearing.

Music-wise, this is Mani Sharma-meets-Sandeep Chowtha at one level. The Melody Brahma's instrumentation is palpably updated.

Set to release on December 28, 'Okka Kshanam' stars Allu Sirish, Surabhi, Seerat Kapoor and Srinivas Avasarala.
