J Nandini Arts' Tamil movie Uliyin Osai, written by Kalaignar Karunanidhi and starring Vineeth, begins with promise but fails to deliver.
Coming from a maestro who's delivered classics in his times, the music for this historical romance falls a little flat. It's as though the musician in him had to push really hard for inspiration and the labour is obvious. While it sticks to the classical theme, there's nothing new here; no scintillating compositions, nothing to indicate that it takes place in the 10th century. Kudos for the Carnatic base, but where is vintage Ilaiyaraja?
