Pick of the week: 1 Mar to 5 Aug 2006

Very mediocre songs, Ramki :)

S.Balaji, the song 'nenje unnasai enna' is by TL Maharajan.

enakku pidithathu driyo driyo thaan :lol: , maduraiyil chinthamani thiraiarangil 100 naatkalukku mel odiyathu

Interprter thanks for being honest. I know they are mediocre but at the same time they are not nonlistenable either :)

Others thanks for the details.

Song: kaNkanda deivame
Movie: keezhvaanam sivakkum
Singers : TMSoundararajan, PSuseela
Lyrics: kaNNadasan
MD: MSViswanathan

Magazines often referred saritha as peN sivaji. When these aaN/PeN sivajis came together for this brilliant film, the combination was nothing but volatile. Their powerful performances enriched the story and made this film a memorable one. Their
wordly duals was fascinating to watch(credit should also be given to the dialogue writer). I know KVS was adapted from a stage drama with poornam and anandhi in the roles of sivaji/saritha. Anandhi, actress with a unique voice, also did a small role in the film.
Im sure many of us aware of the storyline so im not going to waste time talking about it. The film also had Sarathbabu, Menaka, Jaishankar etc.
MSV too came out with good songs. 'kadavul ninaithaan maNanaaL koduthaan' is of my favorite TMS solos from 80s era.

I vaguely remember a VJ solo for Menaka or am I hallucinating?


Todays song has lovely wordplay by kavignar. The slightly aged voice of TMS suits the character played by NT to the T and im glad MSV did not use singers like MV for the song.

Another excellent song from KVS is enakkoru vidiveLLi en vaaninlE by MSV. Its a background song for Jai & Menaka. Did MV sing for Sivaji during that time frame? I'm not sure! arumayaana padam!

Ramki

Nalla song (You have been too kind to TMS, sorry he is worst part of this song!)

There was a ok duet by SPB-SPS for SB and Menaka.

This was one of the few films reviewed by Cho in Tuklak. Showered praises heavily.

However Saritha and NT did over act in many scenes. The movie ran close to 150 days in Shanthi Theatre.

Thanks for the song, KD has done a great job

Bala

This one is a good selection, Ramki :)

Like you, kadavul ninaithan is my fav. too. Saritha and Sivaji acted very well. The Sarthbabu-Menaka duet is ponnana ulagam.

bala,

But TMS brings Sivaji image to my mind immediately, right? Something MV didn't quite succeed that much. Aged voice seems to help also. :) I see your point though.

I think this song is one of the beautiful sindhu bairavi's of that time. What a start to set the stage for rest of the song..!

A song good in different levels!

Haven't heard this song for too damned long!!!

Thanks RR for reminding us at the NT thread. I have missed a lot, looks like.

I think you guys are right, MV would not have pulled off well, especially the climax part of the song where sparring is required. Thanks again.

PS sings perfect while TMS struggles at Paranjothiye .. but overall a nice song
