Aha! I knew Namakame reminded me of one of AR's tunes, but I just couldn't put my finger on it until I read this review....yes....Bombay Theme!

I'm liking it more and more with each listen.....a sure masterpiece! --- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, Gopal Srinivasan <catchg...@...> wrote: > > Komaram Puli (Music review), Telugu A R Rahman > > Posted by: Karthik In: Telugu > OST<http://itwofs.com/milliblog/category/telugu-ost/> > > *Power Star* is that perfectly exhilarating hero-intro track it is racy, > immensely catchy and a cornucopia of fascinating sounds all working in > brilliant sync. *Amma thale* starts of as Swetha Mohan's show as she > skillfully traverses through seemingly tongue-twisting lyrics by > Chandrabose.
