அந்த யூட்யூப் லிங்க் தொட்டதும் "shame shame" ஆகிப்போச்சு...saw that movie in college audi many years back and don't remember much...all that I remember is the hero character had fire-related-mental-condition because his first love suffered fire...Unni Mary on screen for 'deiveega rAgam', like in the case of Johny's seno ritA
Deiveega raagam is indeed 'Deiveega Raagam'. Super song! only IR possible, BTW it was sung by Jency madam right ?

Not as big a hit as other songs of this movie but had some air-time / bus-time etc thanks to the pull of others. Raja has done 100's of such numbers in his career (comical + themmAngu melody + shenoy and associated typicals).
However, a song that has to be included here for two significant reasons : 1. First one with MV in our series (i.e. SPB hits under IR), they had a number of interesting numbers together later on as well 2. Very interesting mimicry by SPB as Suruli Rajan :-)
MV -though in my personal preference ranking he comes many notches below SPB, definitely had a significant contribution during IR's prime period. And, in comparison to SPB, he was a "pioneer" at least on two counts in the TF context (though not so significant) - 1. His sAmanthippoo was earlier than thudikkum karangaL 2. arithAram poosal
And SuruLi, not seen him much and neither a big admirer but the mention of his name triggers at least a few things from memory. One, his villuppAttu / kathA kAlatchEbam kind of song (not by IR) that had this "மாட்டக்கறந்தா மசாலாப்பாலு" :lol2: two, his not-too-irritating role in Johny & three - a movie called 'mAnthOppukkiLiyE' (not seen, only heard olichchithiram) becoming a big hit mainly because of his 'kanjan' role. In any case, that he could get a SPB-mimicried-song in a Kamal movie talks something about his clout at some point of time in TN.
The other person on screen IIRC is white color dress -brrrr- (who gets torn apart by the foreign lady) .
An interesting fun song, without a doubt.

With 1980 done, would like to give the shortcuts here (will continue to do for each year of 80's, as the numbers are much more per year than earlier) :

From dhool / tfmpage archive :
BTW, check out that archive page for some interesting comments on germanyin by Saravanan / Vijay / bb...Quote:

Saravanan, "Enggengum Kandenamaa" - this used to be played in Ceylon radio regularly.....
App, correction.
Enggenggum Kandenamma, SPB was singing for Tenggai. Kamal recalled this in an interview. Song was recorded and Tenggai pulled out last minute, despite Kamal pleading and pointing out that SPB did Tenggai mimicry for that song. Too bad, Tenggai never joined them. He was replaced by VA Moorthy. So, the voice was for VAM in the film, still kinda suited.
OhO, there is such a historical background :-) Thanks for the correction.
Now, doubttu (as my memory on the movie is so faded):
1. Who does the joLLu and gets thrashed by the EU girl? Is it VAM or Suruli?
2. Accordingly, 'pOittALA avaL enru' line is for who, VAM or Suruli - it sounds like MV singing to me
3. Finally, if SPB is not singing for Suruli, is it MV for him?
ok, while the correction on engengum is pending to be done (will do after my doubts get cleared), let me move on to 1981 with a phenomenal song...
#56 ஆயிரம் தாமரை மொட்டுக்களே
வந்து ஆனந்தக்கும்மிகள் கொட்டுங்களேன்
(அலைகள் ஓய்வதில்லை, 1981 , ஜானகியுடன்)
Not for nothing BR calls IR as 'ennuyir thOzhan'.
After his phenomenal run of the first four jubilee movies, NMP took some shine off despite being a moderate success. 'kallukkuL eeram' (nadippu+dir mERpArvai) and 'nizhalgaL' disasters followed and people were quickly writing off BR. Some kisu kisoos were even talking as if K Backiaraj were the main reason for his prior successes. BR must have been feeling really low while his sishyan had already started tasting successes...
Well, IR didn't think the waves of BR were ending. His first movie production got launched - with who else but BR as the director! (It was RDB's company in their eldest brother's name, but generally understood to be a Raja prod). Friend in need indeed.
It was summer of 1981, I had just finished the +2 exams when the AO songs hit us. Though the brothers saved some money by singing quite a bit (all 3 in kappakkezhangu), SPB got one great number with SJ. Even before the movie's release, the songs started hitting the loudspeakers like a storm! (It was and is still a pleasure to listen to the broom-broom prelude of 'puththam puthukkAlai' in big woofers).
The real stunner portion of Ayiram thAmarai is the start of the 1st interlude - what a magnificient, powerful sound!
Add some Vairamuthu novelties (kAdhal thozhukai, kaL vadiyum pookkaL etc), delightful percussion sounds and great singing by SPB / SJ ('O-O-O koththu malarE amudham kottu malarE', 'Ayiram thAmarai-thana nana -Ayiram thAmarai -thana nana nAnana nAnana' delicious portions) to a stunner kummi melody. The result is a song that can take one out of any depressing mood just like that!
One of my college yearmates has acted in this movie (as a companion of Karthik) and he was such a multi-talented person and great to have in the college! (Mainstay of Festember each year and was the cultural coordinator in final year, great singer, could play almost any instrument / play any game, terrific skit writer etc).
The other pleasant memory related to 1000 lotus is watching it in Chennai B&W tholaikkAtchi oliyum oLiyum when visiting my cousin (mentioned earlier in another post - for the Guindy interview). Radha came into the scene with AO when I finished +2 and did that phenomenal 'mudhal mariyAdhai' when I was finishing up engg - a nice actress.
Excellent post again App!. Yes, trendsetter song in TFM. Very innovative and unusual composition from Thalaivar, especially the mridangam. Added to the first interlude masterpice as you mentioned, I would bet on the extra-ordinary prelude and for the most unusual thinking in the history of film music. Mridangam for the love song.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8fVGq-OxxU
You might have watched this video which is quite old, but hear what his mridangist (don't know his name) have to say about the prelude. 'Aniyaama Akaramama use panninaru' and see SPB's face when he says this. What a proud moment for anyone, when someone speaks high of his best friend. Kannu kalagirichu, a moment of pride for all Raja fans.
Thank you groucho for the clarifications - I need to edit my original post properly - rework -weekend'la thAn :-)
Nice post V_S! Very interesting youtube :-)
#57 ஒரு குங்குமச்செங்கமலம்
(ஆராதனை, 1981 , ஜானகி ஹம்மிங் உடன் )
Sweet song from another obscure film that came and went without anyone paying attention. Still gets its name recalled after decades because of the couple of nice songs (this one and 'iLam pani thuLi vizhum nEram' sung by Plum's relative).
It was a radio hit during my +2 days and may be the recording center culture had already picked up in a big way. Or may not. I don't remember the time of arrival of Aradhanai but remember listening to it mostly on radio and occasionally on buses. (I know for sure that when alaigaL Oyvathillai disk arrived, it got feverishly recorded by any who had a cassette player. That was an LP record, the first one by Polydor company for a Thamizh film - and the f/o Prasanth, who worked for Polydor, his connection with IR - can't place Aradhanai relative to AO's timing ).
The short and sweet flute prelude, excellent tabla / Janaki second interlude and overall soft feeling makes this song evergreen. Many songs that had male vocals and female humming had some mild sOgam or eeriness but this one is simply a fun song with absolutely no trace of sOgam or eeriness ...
2 beautiful songs - Kunguma Chenkamalam and Ilam Pani Thuli Vizhum. You just made my day, Thanks App. I have "always" known these songs, but never knew other details like movie name, year etc... Is this Telugu dubbing movie?
Kunguma has simple yet beautiful lyrics. Soft singing by SPB makes me to think, this song belonged to KJY. Ilam Pani Thuli is such a musical treat. It has Mahendran feel to the song.
From dhool.com :
So, it's nizhalkaL Ravi and possibly straight Thamizh movie. BTW, the video seems to be available on youtube (I can't view now)...Quote:
I don't know too much about this movie. The video of this song can be found here. It features a thinner version of Nizhalgal Ravi with a slightly older version of Sumalatha :). I wouldn't be surprised if this movie sank without a trace. A very soft song, and very easy to listen to.
BTW, from the above link, this song is based on 'keeravANi' rAgam.
My comment there : keeravAni + IR = "keer" :-)
Definitely, kungumachchengamalam is bAdhAm keer!
Found out that there's also Thamizh unicode version of thiraippadal...
