01. Yevathive
Vocalists: Karthik
Lyricist: Anantha Sriram
Rating: 5/5

First song is a beautiful romantic Melody. Nivas is just awesome, his orchestration, tune everything is uber cool. Super talented Karthik is a right fit for the song, his mellifluous voice soothes our mind away with peppy instrumentation. The way he renders 'అయ్యో', 'ఆమ్మో' etc kind words shows his prowess that he can fit into any genre. This peppy melody will strike right into the hearts of music lovers. Coming to the lyrics, Anantha Sriram has the habit of changing words for the tune, 'ఏవరితివె' became 'ఏవతివె' & he has brought all those english phrases which too synchronized perfectly. Overall a lovely peppy melody.

02. Hey Yela
Vocalists: Sathyaprakash & Blaze
Lyricist: Anantha Sriram
Rating: 4. 5/5

Second one too is a peppy love ballad but with lot of extravaganza. Orchestration is foot tapping once again , a couple of Thumba beats & some steel drums make up the background & added guitars & percussions sum up to interludes. Nivas 's singer Sathyaprakash is drawn & he does this with flying colors out. This song is just like a cake walk for him, however all the magic is within his romantic voice. Blaze is limited to a rap that is a sure mention, these all elements sum up to the hero's portrayal. Anantha once again brings in those Tenglish words hinting the protagonists' character. Once again the words change as per the tune 'ఉంటుంది' has become 'ఉంటాన్ది' & 'ఓస్తొంది' has become 'ఓస్తాన్ది' . Overall a well made track.

03. Viral Song
Vocalists: Raghu Dixith, Vishnupriya, Ravi, Christopher Stanely & MC Vicky
Lyricist: Anantha Sriram
Rating: 3.5/5

This is that rustic party song with full of exuberance & cherubic vibes. This song suits perfectly to the title of the film. Nivas has mastered all the energy in his tuning. Orchestration is brilliant yet its the same party song. It even features a rap which is foot tapping. All the vocalists did a commendable job. Anantha has written a 'Viral Song' which doesn't have many viral phrases but are simply routine. At the end they even added 'Bangaru Kodipetta's' "hey papa" with a remix kind beats which sounded awful. Credits to Nivas. Overall it's a good song & can definitely make viewers sway their heads in theaters.

04. Hey Yela- (Sad Version)
Vocalists: Chinmayi
Lyricist: Anantha Sriram
Rating: 4.5/5

This is the female version of 'Hey Yela' with husky Chinmayi on the board. Alot of improvisation has been done to the tuning & instrumentation to give it a pathos feel. Nivas aces in orchestration. All the percussions & flute etc will touch the listeners heart. Chinmayi's voice is perfect, but wished she added more expression yet she sounded stupendous. Lyrics too are sublime. If comparisons are dream b/w two versions, both are amazing respectively. But instrumentation wise this version sounds awful. At last Chinmayi sings "సాగరాన్ని తో సిన" instead of "తోసిన" as one, a minute one but wanted to mention.

05. Maar Maar Theenmaar
Vocalists: Ranjith, M.M.Manasi & Nivas
Lyricist: Shreemani
Rating: 3/5

This is the last one in the album which is absolutely zestful in terms of orchestration & rendition. Shreemani gets a single song here, which he slepens from his hand, whole lyric is a cringe, all the phrases appear formulated & routine. Nivas' music is just extraordinary, that's full of energy with Theenmaar kuthu styled beats. Ranjith & Manasi' renditions are frisky but had issues singing Telugu, Ranjith made it "కళ్ళ మున్థ" but actually it's "కల్లు ముంత" & Manasi' accent was fake. If not for that they sounded sonorous. The way the song changes it's pace at last is good. But somewhere song appears like an old RP Patnaiks' song!! Overall, hero seems to be a great dancer, so wait for those graceful steps.
