This review is by a college-going kid. I seriously don't know what kind of music qualification/knowledge this guy has got, to write such a poor review.
I mean look at the ADA review. He is trying to find out similarities in each song instead of reviewing the songs. JTYJN review is equally stupid. looks like this guy doesnt like Rahman, so he purposefully did this.
