Movie: Sammohanam ( సమ్మోహనం )- 2018

Director: Mohana Krishna Indraganti

Producer: Sivalenka Krishna Prasad

Cast: Sudheer Babu & Aditi Hydari

Music: Vivek Sagar

Music Label: Aditya Music

Sammohanam is a recent romantic-comedy entertainer directed by Mohan Krishna and produced by Sivalenka. Sammohanam is a decent picture with slow pacing story and gripping music flowing at all the phases of movie. If this movie is a watch out , then its surely for Mohan Krishna's typical styled direction, Cast's amazing performance, Aditi's graceful beauty and Sagar's spell bounding music.

Vivek Sagar, the Pellichoopulu fame, has been roped for composing music for this breezy story. If one observes keenly into the film, we will understand why Vivek has been roped for music in this film. This film actually requires a good footage from music director which should have some breezy melodies, so that music keeps engaging the audience at all the phases. Music should'nt be rich nor dull, it should take pace when ever audience feel boredom. And Vivek perfectly nailed it with uber cool tunes and BGM. He composed 4 songs for the film, which play a pivotal role in the film.

01. Oohalu Oorege

Singers: Haricharan & Keerthana

Lyrics: Sirivennala Seetharama Sastry

Rating: 5/5

This is the first song in the film, which is a breezy duet b/w the leads. This song comes in when the Heroin comes for a 20 days stay in hero's house. This tune is actually amazingly mellifluous, strikes at first hearing, that guitar which takes too many loops gives a great feeling at the end. That flute, electric guitar, drums everything strike the right chord engaging the listener's attention to the tee. It starts on a light note ends on a blissful experience. When there's nothing to write about, one will gradually bring Sastry garu to write something great like this. Sastry garu does'nt need any situation to write something great, he just writes something that makes the situation great. This song is a treat for music lovers, feast for language lovers and masterpiece for the audience. The words just flow like waves in some clear waters. Hats off Sastry garu. Haricharan and Keerthana are absolutely perfect & simply great, elevated the song!! 

The phrases " నేనేదో భ్రమలో ఉన్నానేమో నీ చిరునవ్వు ఎదో చెబుతోందిఅని, అది నిజమే ఐన నాతో అనకు నమ్మలేనంతగా ", " పరవశమా మరి ఇంతగా పరిచేయము అంత లేదుగా, పొరబడిపోకు అంతలా ముందర నన్ను అడిగావా ?", "తగదు సుమ అంటే తలపు దూమారం ఆగదే" stand as a highlight. Every phrase is like a pearl, IDK how is it possible for him to write like this everytime!!

-Sirivennala Seetharama Sastry                     

02. Manasinadedo

Singers: Vivek Sagar

Lyrics: Indraganti Srikanth Sarma

Rating: 4/5

This is one more cute romantic solo which elevates the situations pace and improves the connectivity in the story. That humming in prelude comes evry now and then giving goosebumps and its composed so well that the listeners wait for it to come again. Again a few notes of electronic guitar and drums sums up to the instrumentation. Nothing to speak about this song, a cool lite hearted melody. Lyrics are fine. The singing by Vivek Sagar is fine but it must be more effective.

-Vivek Sagar                                          

03. O Cheli Thaara

Singers: Haricharan

Lyrics: Ramjogayya Sastry

Rating: 5/5

Now we come across the best song in the album. This song is very rich and composed in a typical style. This composition loots away all the music lovers hearts. Vivek Sagar nailed the instrumentation, those guitars, violins, flute everything rocked giving goosebumps. This song is too blissful, that everyone utters 'Wahh!! What a song?!!' . If composition itself is a treat, Ramjogayya Sastry and Haricharan act like icing on a cake. RJS's words are  a feast. Sir, took a bow for your words, they are like honey, loved every phrase. "ఓ చెలి తార నా మనసారా " is enough to make the listeners go bonkers. A great lyric from RJS garu.

                                                                                                                                 -Ramjogayya Sastry     

Haricharan, what a rendition & what an expression!! loved him singing like this. He is the highlight of the song.

04. Kannulalo Thadiga

Singers: Chaitra Ambadipudi

Lyrics: Ramjogayya Sastry

Rating: 3/5

This is the last song in the film which is situational and melancholic . The time has nothing so deep and is kept very simple with inducing Some classic notes , which is very contemporary nowadays. RJS plays safe with lyrics, nothing great nor nothing creepy. Vivek sagar's tune is simple and dull, takes us no where. Chaitra sounded fine, but had fine tuning issues here and there with few errors in spelling the words,which is OK for present gen.

 Picks of the album: O Cheli Thara & Oohalu Orege

OVERALL RATING: 8.5/10

Remarks: Vivek got a great chance to prove his talent , hope that's not gone in vain. Inspite of dripping narration music has its own pace. Rest all is seen at critics reviews and ratings about the film, I need not speak about it. A film which is sure watch out for variety and feel good music.
