Hopefully the testing times will pass and we’ll be able to bring the film to you guys soon..

Vineeth, who started his career making music albums with composer Shaan Rahman, announced a few days ago that Hridayam’s audio tracks will also be released in cassettes and CDs, the old fashioned way.

The list of audio tracks was released on June 21, World Music Day.
Vineeth began directing films more than 10 years ago with Malarvadi Arts Club, which launched the acting careers of popular actors like Nivin Pauly and Aju Varghese. He later directed the romantic comedy Thattathin Marayathu, a family drama called Jacobinte Swargarajyam based on a true story and Thira, a take on sex racketing starring Shobana. Vineeth has acted in a number of films in between, singing in a few and writing lyrics for tracks in his brother Dhyan Sreenivasan’s debut directorial Love Action Drama. He also turned producer for movies like Helen, starring Anna Ben.
