Hi, First of all we should think about the movie theme and then only we can expect the songs for the film. Even though its not od Epic or Historic film, its base line is something related to the epic Ramayan and that too the title itself says its about the demon king Ravans side of story.
A.R.Rahman gives the music Only for the film, and the film is not being made for his music. In that view you cant expect the music of ravan and sita playing around trees kind of songs.I really enjoys the songs with Ravans mind and the more earthy songs with tribal touch. If you want peppy songs or hip hop songs try to listen the films with that genre. This is my personnal openion about this film and its songs. > > Heard the songs about 4 times with the Original CD of Raavan today.
