Hai Jithin/Group, I second him for what he said... Yodha is one of the Classic Soundtracks ever created in Malayalam - in the sense - malayalam film music started to be viewed in a different manner. AGAIN!!! Rahman ji was the one to do it... The songs and the movie was not at all underrated as both were blockbusters. The only thing is its tamil and hindi versions were vulgarised in the best possible way by directors who didnt know what soul and story the orignal movie was trying to impart. It was after the release of Yodha that people heard a completely different style of music making, with extraordinary beats, blends, fusions which was hitherto unheard or untried at all... It virtually gave a breath of fresh air to Malayalam Filmdom and YODHA's music is still reigned as a Classic Score. If someone is a Keralite, then he is a fan of Yodha Songs. After this Rahman-ji couldnt continue with his inventions & Vidyasagar came and took over malayam in one of the grandest forms ever done by a MD [sorry, but truths should be accepted and respected, as i respect both of them in the rightfull manner]. So this is the pre and post of YODHA Soundtrack. One more interesting thing:- Shyama Sundara Track (by AR Rahman) for Asianet is still considered to be one of the Classic Theme Track ever created in Malayalam TV. So see Rahman-ji is not without a mark in every language in India ;-) LuV B|H

This film being malayalam might have went unnoticed in tamil and hindi and The dubbed version was very vulgar to.But in kerala this is an all time classic soundtrack. regards .tc (not sure if anybody else had clarified this before) Unlimited freedom, unlimited storage.
