After the first listen I was like wtf! But the songs really grow on you. Very haunting. Hooked on to the fantastic "Celebration of life" (Naveen - Rahman's flautist?) and the superb "The King arrives". PenmaaNE, Oh Eesa composers's mix are superb as well. Thaai thinRa mannE needs a few more listens. Vijay Yesudas struggles, IMO. Yesduas himself would have been much better. GVP guitar-la pugundhu viLaiyaaduRaar in the melodies. Selva is a freakin' genius I say! Now I can't wait to see the visuals. He seems to be huge fan of PBS. idhu enna maayam from 7G, now two songs in this and the veteran has done remarkably well
