2. "Munna" - Composer Harris Jayaraj has given his best in this album. "Baga baga" and "Chamakuro" are topping countdown shows.

3. "Aata" - The combo of producer M.S. Raju and his favourite composer Devisri Prasad yields a promising album. "Vela yela" and "Muddulata" are racy numbers. 

5. "Veduka" - Up-and-coming composer Anoop's humable tunes "Syra syra" and "Mallela mancham" may help this album move up the charts. 
 
Aduvari Matalaku Arthale Verule at first
 
The top five Telugu films are:

1. "Adavari Matalaku Ardhale Verule" - Venkatesh's all-round performance is the USP of this not-so-unique love story. Tamil director Sri Raghava's racy screenplay has also helped to make a winner out of a wafer-thin plot. 

2. "Dhee": At last Vishnuvardhan finds a much-needed hit with this love story laced with action. Director Srinu Vytla's flair for comedy has enhanced the film's entertainment value. 

4. "Athili Sathi Babu LKG" - Director E.V.V. Satyanarayana delivers another moderate hit with his son and actor Naresh to keep his banner floating yet again. Despite an overdose of slapstick comedy, the message of neglected parents finds its audience.

5. "Bharani" - The film has perhaps a message for hat-trick hero Vishal - he should stick to action films rather than risk his career by dabbling in other genres. This family drama has only diluted his image of a daredevil youth acquired with "Pandem Kodi".
