Njan Aara, which is a ballad, is another delectable favourite with a very funky and yet subdued bass line, showcasing bassist Naresh Kamath’s undeniable mastery over the instrument. The song’s meaning, once translated for non speakers of Malayalam, is unusually intense, speaking of the questioning of one’s identity. The repetition of the words Njan Aara (who am I), has a haunting effect although what really makes the song a pleasure to listen to are the beautiful vocal harmonies and the perfect string sections.
