I believe a herd of actors were in this movie. Was the song picturised on Sivakumar and kumari padmini?

Ramki,
yes, this song is for Sivakumar & Kumari Padmini. I think it is A. Sagunthala and 'kallapart' Natarajan who comes on stage for the western type interludes.
The film had Manorama & Suruli too.

Ramki..

the song starts with the voice of APN.. and continues with SPB and LRE..
Sivakumar and Kumari Padmini as Rathi manmadhan in flower dresses... and KaLLapart Natarajan and A.Sakunthala dancing with small bulbs attached to their dress.. :lol:

suruLi and manorama watching... :P

Another song I can think of from 'kaN kAtchi' is 'kANum kalai ellAm kaN kAtchi' by PBS and MR Vijaya.

Nalla, santhamulla paadal varigaL. thanks Ramki.

I like the way both SPB and LRE said the word "en uyir mannavA" in different type and feelings.

I had the same experience too with Sivakumar.
I've meet him during his few visits to KL.

He mentioned all the APN's dialog before this song. I'm wondering, during our conversation, he talk about all his experience with APN and the movies dialog. not only his but also co-artistes. Great.

I'll attach the wordings by APN and the song lyric on Monday. Can I Ramki Sir?

thenraja...

one more good song..

"kuRavar kulam kaakkum kumarA nee vAzhga"

Ramki.... kindly excuse me for my comment on LRE singing carnatic style song.
Kasappu kadai kaari, kanchipuram pattu sElai kattikittu, aattu kedaa vettina kadhai pOla irukku.... LRE indha classical base song paadinadhu. Kunnakudi could have given a thought before engaging her for this song.
Meendum sorry ramki.

Thanks to everyone for providing more details


Premananth, You sure can.


Vel, enkitte edhukku apology kekkareenga?:)

Sorry for the delay in posting songs.
Can i give you a clue for the next song?:)

The film had a real life pair in the role of aNNi-maithunan. They ended up marrying different persons. The song was picturised on the hero and a punjab beauty(!!). The punjab kiLi and the other heroine are in kutti tv now.
The film had music by a malayalam MD.

Song?

Pick #340

Song: thodu thodu vaa
Movie: Dharma devathai
Singers : SJanaki, KJYesudoss
Lyrics: vaali
MD: Ravindran

A lovely duet by one of the best MD's of India. The song has his favorite singers KJY and SJ, who has sung some very good songs in both tamil and malayalam under his direction.
If i remember right, Ravindran made his debut in 'Hemavin kadhalargaL'. A good film with Anuradha in the lead. The film flopped and the MD went unnoticed.
Thanks to actress Ambika, he resurfaced again in tamil with Rasigan oru rasigai. He did not do many films in Tamil but each of his album had atleast one good song.
'dharma devathai' was produced by AVM studios and had
Vijaykanth, Radika, Sarathbabu and Pallavi in the lead.
I believe this is the only film with Radhika in police role.
I'm not sure if this film did well . Haven't listend to any other song from this film.

Hi Ramki..

yes..Radhika in police roll.. and I think Aruvadai naaL ( debut film of Pallavi ) and this one got released at the same time.. !

Ramki, did you mean Vijaykanth and Radhika as the real life pair? I think they were not married, right? Only koodal pinbu oodal :-)

Radhika acted as aNNi for VK? HaiyahO :-(

Innoru haiyahO for Pallavi... invanga pOyi Punjab kiLiyaa? :lol:

I think Ravindran gave very challenging songs to Chitra also, who did enough justice to her Master.

Vel1970: Kasappu kadaiyila kAran thAna iruppanga... kAri undA? orE smell adikkudhu :-)
