Ramki,
Thanks for the lovely song "pani nilavE siRu malarE". Listening to it after a million years. A soothing composition by Shankar-Ganesh, rendered with silky softness and clarity by Yesudas.

Song: isai paadi vaazhvinba
Film: anbu
Singer : MLVasanthakumari
Lyrics: ?
Music: TRPappa
Today's song is my mom's request :). When my parents visited us in the summer , i mentioned to her about POW.
You should host 'isaipaadi' she said(and few other songs that im still searching).
'what is so great about that song?' i asked.
'Apart from MLV's great singing the song was also a popular number in 'poNNu paarkum padalam'. Most of the girls sang this song as it was considered a lucky one :)' she replied.
A great fan of Travancore sisters , she mentioned 'anbu had' sivaji, padmini, Lalitha,TRRajakumari, Balaiyya, rushyendramani etc.
Todays pick is picturised on a less known actress whose name my mom did not remember.
Ramki: Good choice! anbu(1953) had a few lyricists- kaa.mu.Sheriff,vindhan,suradhaa, kambadhasan,paapanasam sivan and a couple of others. For those who do not know Travancore sisters, they are Lalitha,Padmini and Ragini who started their career as bharathanatyam dancers and moved on to movies. I think this was a dance piece( not sure). Let me know what MLV songs you are looking for. If I have it I will send you.
Ramki, great melody by MLV. Enakku avar kural romba pidikkum. vazha vazha-nnu oru velvet pOndra voice. vilAngu meen pOla kaiyil pidikka mudiyAdhu. Mei marandhu kEttEn. Thanks a lot.
Is this for Padmini or Lalita? MLV sang many songs for TVKR sisters, esp Padmini. Romba gana kachidhamA porundhum.
Was Adal kANeerO sung by MLV? Can anyone please confirm....?
Yes! In madhurai veeran .Quote:

I again confirmed it with my mom today. The song is not a dance song. Its a ponnu parkum song. Some one comes to 'see' TRRajakumari's sister who sings this song. My mom said that sivaji will walk past the crowd into the another room and padmini will follow him.
She also added that the scene was quite 'forward' for those days because, the girl does not sit on the floor or a mat but she sits on a chair in front of the guy and sings the song.

Song: urvasi menagai
Film: ?
Singer : BSSasirekha or BVasantha?
Lyrics: ?
Music: ?
Thanks to Neel for this rare and cute song. He writes:
"Urvasi Menagai" hit the airwaves through All India Radio some time in the very late 70s. It disappeared very soon afterwards. But for whatever reason this song has stayed on my mind ever since. I came across this song again few months ago.
It is a nice and simple western composition. Very enjoyable. Not sure if it is an original. The singer sounds like B.S.Sasirekha. Not sure if it is her. The film, music director and the lyricist are unknown, to me at least. Please share if you have any information about this song.
