![]() ![]() "Azhagaga Kannukku" is probably the less religous based song on the album and is ok. The title track, "Aathi Parasakthi", is good, it is also sung by my favorite, T. The rest of the songs are ok, but nothing special, I prefer hearing them while watching the film. The song is about how all goddesses are all one and the same (Shakti (Aathi Parasakthi)) whichever name or shape they have. Secondly, " Nan Aatchi" because it was a song I instantly liked from the beginning, it must be because of P. Firstly"Kokku Parakkum" which is supposed to be sung by a small boy poet in the film.
