Vaaranam Aayiram (soundtrack)

[11] This song featured in the first trailer was raved by audiences, which also led a popular distributor in North India to fetch the film rights for the highest bid.

"Ava Enna", sung by Karthik and backing vocals by V. V. Prasanna, was picturised during Surya's grief over the loss of Meghana, and started drugs and alcoholism to ease his pain.

[16] "Annal Mele Panithuli" is played at Surya's first meet with Priya (Divya Spandana) after his army training and was sung by prominent Carnatic musician Sudha Raghunathan.

[19] The audio was released in Sathyam Cinemas in Chennai, with the film's cast and crew in attendance, and a live performance from Harris Jayaraj and his musical team.

A reviewer from Indiaglitz stated the album is "one of the best soundtracks from Harris Jeyaraj and Gautham Menon's collaboration", further calling it as "energetic" and "entertaining".

[22] Pavithra Srinivasan from Rediff gave a 3.5 out of 5 rating and called that "Harris Jayaraj has set out to provide quality music with a difference".

[23] Karthik Srinivasan of Milliblog called that "the soundtrack is a fantastic example of a set of mesmerizing tunes used with the right vocals and appropriate backgrounds, making a solid impact".

[31] Similarly, the Silambarasan-starrer Achcham Yenbadhu Madamaiyada directed by Menon himself was earlier titled Sattendru Maarudhu Vaanilai, adapted from one of the verses from the song "Nenjukkul Peidhidum", but was later renamed due to copyright issues.
