The makers of Secret Soldier have released the film’s audio jukebox, bringing together songs that explore very different shades of the film, from emotion and social satire to patriotism. The jukebox features music by Karthik Rodriguez and is now available on YouTube.
A major highlight of the album is lyricist Rehman, whose writing has previously delivered memorable songs such as “Gelupu Talupule” from Teen Maar, “Gala Gala” from Race Gurram and “Kadalalle” from Dear Comrade.
In Secret Soldier, his lyrics move across distinctly different moods.
“Enno Asalu” brings out the emotional and introspective side of the film, dealing with hopes, pain and the inner journey of its characters.
“Oye Oye” takes a completely different route. Written as a social satire, it humorously questions human hypocrisy, judgement and the tendency to preach to others while overlooking one’s own flaws.
“Bhaga Bhaga” moves into the film’s patriotic space, carrying a more intense and energetic flavour that connects with the larger theme of duty and national identity.
The contrast between these songs gives the Secret Soldier album its character. Rather than staying within one musical mood, the soundtrack reflects the different emotional and thematic layers of the film.
Secret Soldier is set to release in theatres on September 18.
