Lyrics
Shivan's words bring out all our buried emotions
Composed by Anirudh Ravichander, Naan Pizhai is a feel-good number. The vocals of singers Ravi G and Shashaa Tirupati add soul to the song. However, Shivan's lyrics take the cake. His words illustrate deep thoughts one might have while in a romantic relationship. The backing music with flute and guitar is soothing to the ears, making the listening experience more pleasurable.
Visuals
Video amps up our curiosity about the story
The 4:02-minute-long video starts with Sethupathi staring at the rain and then Nayanthara appears in a vibrant background. It suggests that they both are longing for each other's company. And, the song's visuals have the power to make you feel the story's depth. Especially, the moments Nayanthara and VJS share with the kids increase our curiosity about what the film has to offer.
Verdict
'Naan Pizhai' is a breezy melody with a repeat-listening value
VJS and Nayanthara's chemistry does justice to the efforts the musicians have taken to create this soulful number. It has a repeat value and one will add it to their romantic playlist even after the first listen. I would recommend you to enjoy this number while having a laid-back day with your partner. Verdict: Song and visuals bag 3 and 3.5 stars, respectively.
