Neel Anna... super shocks you have given thru Maduraikkara thambi.
1. Are you planning for G.Srinivasan vaaaram?
2. Manimala mother of Vijayakumar? kadvuLe..
SPS voice seems to be ok in this song.
If Ramki had shown more effort, he could have become much more popular. In my opinion, he is good in acting besides being handsome.
SN23,
No, not a G.Srinivasan vaaram. :)
Yes, I like Ramki a lot. Much much better than most of the commercial heroes who came after him.

Vinatha - nIngaLum thiruchi-aa? :shock: I remember watching chinna puve mella pesu during mr first year in college... endha theatre-nu gnabagam illai... was it maris?
Ramki was one of my favourite actors... He was good in fight sequences, had a good hair style, was okay acting wise... too bad that he did not stay/ was not allowed to stay.
RC, I also don't remember. My appa chaperoned us :)
I studied at TRICHY- SRC - HOSTEL.
chathiram bus stand, Trichy Junction, Aandar street, Kizha kalkandar kottai, have gone to Srirangam temple, malai kottai, thaila silks, sarada's, vasantha bhavan- yummy! that chathiram bus stand is HEAVEN! :bluejump: :swinghead:

wowwwwwwwwww coooooool song :D :redjump:
thanks to vinatha for bringing me here! :thumbsup: :bluejump:
Sonnadhai seiven song is really good in typcial MSV style.
Wague rememberance of this film. Sujatha and Sivakumar are in love but Sujatha happens to marry Jaiganesh, who ill-treats her. She stays away from him but receives lot of trouble. But gets support from Sivakumar, whose wife Fadafut JL suspects SK. Some aracha maavu goes on like this.
I always gets confused to link this song with Enna thavam seidhen film.
Thanks for sharing this song.

Thanks for the song.
We have discussed Dhanasekaran and Mallika when Ramki hosted the FAMOUS "Malargalin Raaja". Based on the music this song has, it seems to be D. Thyagarajan as well who gave the Malraglai Raaja from Valli Devayanai
Thanks
Bala
bobgalee, you are welcome. Do you have any information about "Pallavi Illaatha Paadal"?
baroque, you are welcome.
balaji, welcome back. Yes, the music does sound similar to "Valli Deivanai". It could be the same MD.
Pick #638
Song: chinna chinna rOjAppU
Film: Poovaasam
Music: Ganesh (of Shankar-Ganesh)
Singers: S.N.Surendar, K.S.Chitra
Lyrics: One of (Vaali, Muthulingam, Ganesh, Sribharathi)
Year: ?
"Poovaasam" is a typical love story in a rural setting. Story, screenplay, dialog and direction by Sribharathi. The film released in 1999, according to another website. But you can take the film and drop it anywhere in the mid to late 80s and it would fit perfectly. May be the film was a long time in the making before it released. The story, actors, singers and songs take you back smoothly into the 80s. The film starred Murali and a new face Ramya in the lead. Looking at Murali one really cannot tell which year or even which decade the film was made. Ramya is of no help either. Never seen her in any other film to make a guess.
Murali is the only son of a policeman (Vinu Chakravarthi), a widower trying very hard to raise his son. But Murali does not go to school or work, simply hangs out with other village kids thavakkaLai, pattu, oththai kOmaNam, tottadoing, daNdanakka, lodakLAs, etc. (okay I made up the last two names...lol... but the first four names are real). The gang steals fruits from farms, snacks from tea shops and generally has a jolly good time. Across the street from Murali's house lives the highschool girl Ramya, the daughter of a school teacher (Pushpalata), a widow trying to raise a disciplined daughter by employing strict rules. Pushpalata's mother lives with her too.
Murali has a crush on Ramya, but she ignores him because he is just a jobless troublemaker. One day Murali burns his own arm because Ramya won't talk to him. Another day he saves Ramya's cousin (muRai payyan) Sekar from a thief. Ramya has a change of heart and develops a liking for Murali. She burns her hand too and goes to meet him in the farm. (And they sing the duet "chinna chinna rOjAppU"). Ramya tells Murali to stop stealing things and start behaving like a responsible adult. Murali stops stealing and gets a job. His father Vinu is very happy about it. One day when Ramya and Murali meet on the farm a snake bites him in the leg. Ramya tears a piece from her half-saree and ties it in his leg above the bite. Murali is brought to his house and Ramya is sitting next to him cyring her eyes out while the medicine man is tending Murali. Pushpalata sees the piece of her daughter's clothing on Murali's leg and suspects that there may be something between Ramya and Murali. Then she brings Ramya home and yells at her for hanging out with a boy. A few days later Ramya goes to meet Murali again in the farm and Pushpalata sees it. When Ramya arrives home Pushpalata slaps her left and right and forbids her to see Murali.
kALaiyan(Jaisankar) is a widower and a do-gooder who helps unite young lovers in the village separated by caste divisions, etc. A young woman in the village is madly in love with Jaisankar and wants to marry him, but he spends his time smoking, drinking and moping around thinking of his dead wife who was killed by the village Pannaiyar. Pannaiyar's friend wanted to marry Jaisankar's wife. But she refuses and marries Jaisankar. Pannaiyar and his men come to kill Jaisankar but his wife interferes to protect Jaisankar and dies when a crowbar plunges through her. Jaisankar overhears Murali and Ramya talking one day and decides to help them get married.
One day when she is coming home from school Murali presents Ramya with a bead necklace. When Pushpalata finds Ramya wearing the necklace she pulls that off her neck, beats her up and scolds her for letting her mind wander instead of focussing on education. Pushpalata's husband died young and it was her education that helped her get a teaching job which now helps her family survive. She wants her daughter to get an education also so that she can stand on her own legs if needed. However, Pushpalata decides that things are getting out of hand and goes to meet her brother. Her brother agrees to have his son Sekar marry Ramya. Pushpalata then comes home and locks Ramya in a room and tells the grandmother to not open the door. Ramya tries to write a letter to Murali. She finds a dried out pen in the room. She pokes her hand and uses her blood as ink to write the letter and tries to send it to Murali through one of his little friends who comes by her window. Pushpalata finds out and tears the letter. Then when Pushpalata heads out to work, the grandmother decides to let Ramya go free. She drops a grinder stone on her foot on purpose and uses that as an excuse to release Ramya and they both head to the hospital. On the way they meet Jaisankar. Ramya tells him that her mother is arranging a forced marriage for her. Jaisankar says he will help her and leaves.
Radharavi is the police inspector under whom Vinu works. They are both very honest policemen and will do anything to uphold the law. Radharavi is also the cousin of Ramya and the older brother of Sekar who is going to marry Ramya. When Vinu finds out about Ramya being forced to marry Sekar he decides to help his son out. He talks to Pushpalata but she refuses and insults him for trying to break up a marriage. Vinu decides to take things into his own hands. He tells Radharavi that he needs to do some things against the law and submits his resignation.
SPOILER ALERT! Skip the next two paragraphs if you do not want to know how the film ends.
Pushpalata anticipates trouble from Murali and Vinu at the wedding and asks the Pannaiyaar to provide protection. The night before the wedding, Murali and Vinu go to stop the wedding and are confronted by the Pannaiyaar and his men. They all fight and Vinu ends up killing the Pannaiyaar. Jaisankar gets informed about the confrontation.
The morning arrives. Wedding ceremonies proceed. Radharavi has a private conversation with Pushpalata in her room. Ramya gets dressed up for the wedding ceremony in her room. When others are not looking she drinks a bottle of poison. Then she heads to the maNavaRai. Ramya is sitting in the maNavaRai and the priest asks the groom to take his seat. Dressed like a groom, Murali walks in. Ramya is pleasantly surprised, and terribly devastated at her haste to drink poison. Murali sits next to her. Vinu attends the wedding in handcuffs. Radharavi wonders why Jaisankar is missing at the wedding. Murali ties the knot. The newlyweds go to Pushpalata, touch her feet and get her blessings. Tears rolling down her face Ramya tells her mother that her decision to allow her to marry Murali was too late and faints. Everybody screams and some people pick Ramya up and rush to the hospital. Radharavi does not panic. He looks at the crying Pushpalata and tells her not to worry. He then says that he heard about Ramya's deep love for Murali, expected Ramya would do something stupid like this, replaced the poison with just a mild sedative and that she should be all right. Jaisankar is at the arrack shop, drinking, now that he has taken care of everything. Well, that was my deduction. If Jaisankar did not tell him how else would have Radharavi known to switch the groom, and the poison? Subam!
SPOILER ENDS!
