MUMBAI: The soundtrack of superstar Rajinikanth-starrer Tamil action-drama ‘Kabali’ was officially unveiled on Sunday.
The Santhosh Narayanan-composed album features five songs, and of them ‘Neruppu Da’ and ‘Ulagam Oruvanukka’ have become instant chartbusters within a few hours of release.
Featuring voices of a host of young and promising singers, ‘Kabali’ is the first Rajinikanth-starrer in over two decades that doesn't feature an S.P. Balasubrahmanyam number.
For many years, it has been a tradition as well as a sentiment to make Balasubrahmanyam sing the title track in a Rajinikanth's film.
However, in ‘Kabali’, the title track ‘Ulagam Oruvanukka’ features voices of Ananthu, Santhosh Narayanan, Gana Bala and Roshan Jamrock.
The album also features two soulful renditions – ‘Maya Nadhi’ and ‘Vaanam Parthen’ -- which are melancholic yet poignant.
The makers had planned to release the second teaser of the film on Sunday. However, the same has been postponed by a few days.
Directed by Pa. Ranjith, ‘Kabali’ features Rajinikanth as a don, and he will be featuring in two different avatars.
The film, which is slated for 15 July release, also features Radhika Apte, Kalaiarasan, Dinesh, Dhansikaa, Kishore and Winston Chao.
