Nephew overtakes uncle A.R. Rahman

After uncle, it is now the nephew's turn to make the audiences swing to the catchy scores. A.R. Rahman has always created waves with his albums, and now it is his nephew G.V. Prakash whose music has become a craze with youngsters.

Prakash's "Kireedam" tops the charts in Tamil Nadu.

1. "Kireedam" (G.V. Prakash): The album is sure to make one listen to it over and over again. 'Kanavellam' sung by Jayachandran and Karthik is the pick of the songs.

2. "Satham Podaathay" (Yuvan Shankar Raja): Yuvan has assembled the best singers - Shankar Mahadevan, Shreya Ghosal and even Sudha Raghunathan - in the album. This one's definitely worth buying.

3. "Sivaji" (A.R. Rahman): The music of this album has appealed to one and all.

4. "Unnale Unnale" (Harris Jayaraj): With the sad demise of Jeeva, there is a renewed interest for the album and the film in the state.

5. "Chennai 600028" (Yuvan Shankar Raja): The songs of this album are becoming more and more popular with each passing day, "Sivaji" notwithstanding.
