The makers of the upcoming Tamil horror-comedy film ‘Conjuring Kannapan’ have dropped its latest track ‘Bakkunu Suthureney Aiyo Aiyo’. Composed and sung by Yuvan Shankar Raja, the track is comedically amusing yet groovy, and perfectly captures the tone of the movie, giving off a very danceable party melody vibe.
Yuvan’s own singing is very non-serious, and in an upbeat way it is almost like a cry to run away. The song contrasts itself in the most unique way, and is driven mostly by rhythm and groove, with the melody kicking in very late.
The song primarily is like a mixture of folk, classical, pop, electronic, film music, and even some hip-hop, though not in the typical way. There is no outright rapping or anything like that, rather it is a lot of spoken word with delivery aimed like rapping, so there are some tonal similarities to hip-hop.

The trailer for actor Sathish’s horror-comedy film ‘Conjuring Kannapan’ is out, and it is both terrifying and hilarious. Full of eerie happenings, lurking ghosts, abominable horrors, all the while fused with a lot of rib tickling comedy, the film is both twisted and comical.
The trailer starts off as pure horror, as Satish is always finding himself in one house while he sleeps. An eerie mansion, he always finds a ghost who is never fully revealed but always scares the living daylights out of him.
Confused and sweating with heart palpitations, the trailer then shifts to Naseer who tells him that in this dream an evil bloody thirsty spirit is wondering. In ‘Matrix’ fashion, you die in the dream then you die for real as the ghost will destroy the mind.
Then after a couple of other spooky ‘Conjuring’ style horrors, the trailer adopts a complete change in tone and becomes hilarious.
