Music director Rajesh Murugesan tackles Premam's nuanced theme of the different stages of love with a deft touch. Murugesan's style—experimental and trippy with a touch of retro—works perfectly with the coming-of-age story. Watch out for Shabareesh's Malayalam rap in "Scene Contra", while "Aluva Puzha" dexterously blends acoustic guitar, flute and tabla. Murugesan's found the sweet spot with this record, steering clear of the sentimental—and that makes Premam an absolute treat.
