The album has six songs and all are based on folk tunes. The melodious ‘Kammangaattukkulla', sung by Bhavatharini and Harish Raghavendra and penned by Snehan, is the best of the six. ‘Sonthamellaam' also written by Snehan is sung by Surmugi and then by Haricharan. Both have done justice to the number.

‘Pathooru Petti Varuthu', sung by Velmurugan, and ‘Marikkolunthu Manakkaliye', the last number in the album, sung by Manicka Vinayagam and Chinnaponnu, are passable. Lyrics for these songs are by O. Asaithambi. ‘Nochikaattu Katha Onnu' sung by Sriram Parthasarathi and Surmugi sounds good.
