I make the effort to upgrade myself, says singer Unni Menon

Unni Menon, the singer with the evergreen voice, is on song. He has that zing in his voice while talking about how fruitful 2022 has been for him. Right up there is the groovy, dance track ‘Rathipushpam’ composed by Sushin Shyam in Bheeshmaparvam; ‘Kural Kekkutha’, a breezy Tamil song from Hridayam scored by Hesham Abdul Wahab, was also on the charts . Songs from Avial (‘Manjin thooval’, a duet with KS Chitra) and Karnan Napoleon Bhagat Singh (‘Kathorthu’) were the other songs that got noticed in spite of the films not doing well.

In Tamil, he has four songs ready for release. Of that one is a duet with Bombay Jayashri, composed by Harris Jayaraj for The Legend. “We last sang for him 16 years ago – ‘Partha mudhal’ in Vettayadu Vilayadu. I hope this song will also be loved as much,” says the Chennai-based singer with a four-decade career in the film music industry.
