Mohanlal song tops Malayalam charts

Kochi, Aug 22 (IANS) Though some peppy songs from 'Heartbeats' have entered this list, it is 'Adimegha' from Mohanlal starrer 'Alibhai' that tops the charts.

The top five Malayalam songs are:

1. 'Adimegha' - Film: 'Alibhai'; Music: Alex Paul: Lyrics: Gireesh Puthencherry: Singer: M.G. Sreekumar. Director Shaji Kailas always finds a situation to fit a Kavadi song in his films with Mohanlal, irrespective of the backdrop. This is yet another successful example.

2. 'Vakkozhi' - Film: 'Heartbeats'; Music: George Peter; Lyrics: Gireesh Puthencherry; Singers: Jassie Gift, Pradeep Palluruthy, George Peter, Sarina, Shruthi and Kalayani. This is a typical campus song with a group of singers led by Jassie Gift, with almost everyone in the cast getting an opportunity to dance.

3. 'Kadukittu' - Film: 'Hello'; Music: Alex Paul: Lyrics: Sarath Varma: Singers: M.G. Sreekumar and Sangeetha Prabhu. In this song, Mohanlal dances to please his fans.

4. 'Thirike' - Film: 'Arabikatha'; Music: Bijibal; Lyrics: Anil Panachooran; Singer: Yesudas. Lyricist Anil Panachooran has got a lot of mileage from the film.

5. 'Chella thamara' - Film: 'Hello'; Music: Alex Paul; Lyrics: Sarath Varma; Singers: K.S. Chitra and Sangeetha Prabhu. This is a token song giving importance to singer Chitra.
