As you have aired duets among PS, VJ and SJ, my guess your next will be the one and only Triplet combination of PS+VJ+SJ from pondAtti Sonna kEttukkaNum (VandhaLe....)

---

The theme seems to be jOdi maatram. In that case, the next has to be a SJ duet.
SJ+Jikki -> manjaLum thanthaaL ?
with SPS -> all seem to be popular songs
with dont-know-who -> varave varaatha (a popular song in Mars) ?
any with LRE? UR?

RR, it all started with PS+SJ (bandha paasam), then PS+VJ (Naam pirandha mann) and SJ+VJ (Manidharil....). So, i guess the next might be a combo all these 3 great kuyilgaL :)

enna Ramki, seekiram mudichai avizhunga :wink:

Dear Ramki,
Nalla song!!!! Radiovil ketta ninaivu..Morning school kelambum podhu,time therindhu kolla ovvoru stationaga,change panni kondae irupom.Schoolku time anal, piditha song enralum , school ku oda vendiyadhu dhan!!!, Indha songai first timeaga vaitha podhu, muzhudhum ketka mudiyamal schoolku pona ninaivu!!!
The song 'Orae mugam,nila mugam'
is in the film 'Oppandham' by Srikanth and Sripriya.MD is IR.
Last month i have watched this movie
in Raj tv.

With Love,
Usha Sankar.

I never knew the duet in 24 mani neram.

Yes its my post :)

Usha shankar, thanks for the info on 'ore mugam'

jn, FM :)

Pick #222

http://tfmpage.com/stream/songs/vandhaaLe_psk.rm

Song: vandhaaLe therkku seemaiyile
Film: poNdatti sonna kettukanum
Singers : PSuseela, SJanaki, VaniJairam
Lyrics: Vairamuthu
Music: Chandrabose

The only song that brought the 3 TFM kuyils together. The song was picturised on Banupriya, Kovai SaraLa and Devisree. There was one more girl in the scene..Bala??? something.
I think chandrasekhar was one of the heroes.

Is it sivakumar or Nasar?

I think the movie had Charlie - kovai sarala, sivakumar-banupriya, chinni jayanth(??) - Devishree and vetri with the other heroine as the cast.. Koundamani paired with manorama as the parents of these 3 brothers.. I remember this song pretty well.. Its a typical V. sekar movie on dowry and family problems...

Ramki thanks for this song. Though not very great tune, 3 legends singing together is really an wonder. I am very sure that all 3 would have sung separately via track recording to avoid ladAi :lol:

Somehow I am comfortable watching films of medium budget directors like Visu, V.Sekhar. Even KB was pioneer in that category :-)

V.Sekhar's padaippugaL ( :lol: ) pin varumAru :

NeengaLum HerOdhAn (1990) with Nizhalgal Ravi
Pondatti Sonna KEttukkanum (1991) with Chandrasekar & Bhanupriya, Chinni Jayanth & Devisri, Charlie & Kovaia sarala, Gowndamani & Manorama
NAn Pudicha MAppiLLai (1991) with Nizhalgal Ravi & Aishwarya, Janakaraj
Parvathi Ennai Paradi (1993) with Saravanan & Sriparvathi
Porandha VeedA Pugandha VeedA (1993) with Sivakumar & Bhanupriya (BP with aged Siva; kaduppachu)
Varavu EttaNa Selavu PathaNa (1994) with Nazar & Radhika, Vadivelu & Kovai Sarala
NAn Petha MaganE (1995) with Nizhalgal Ravi & Radhika, Oorvasi (who was her pair??)
KAlam MAripOchu (1996) with Pandiarajan & Sangeetha
EllamE En PondAttithan (1998) with Ramki & Sangavi
ViralukkEththa Veekkam (2000) with Nazar & Kushboo (akkramam)
Koodi VazhndhAl KOdi Nanmai (2000) Nazar & Kushboo (again akkramam)

Out of all above, I rate nAn pudicha mApiLLai a different one, giving heavy character to Janakaraj.

Suddenly VS went out of his track and directed Aei (Sarthkumar & Namitha). Hopeless switch-over for VS with SK looking very tired throughout the movie except in those wet scenes with Namitha.

Look at the interview of Sekhar in the Hindu, sometime back.
http://www.hindu.com/thehindu/mp/200...2201120300.htm

On this PoW, I find PS’voice sounded leading though it was getting aged. Unfortunately this VVVVVV.Rare song was not picturised properly. PS as well as SJ singing for both Sarala & Bhanupriya.... :-(

Ramki, continue with series to keep up the expectation of us :-)

SN23,
Aei was directed by Venlatesh (masala mannan). V.Sekar also directed namma veettu kalyanam, aalukkoru aasai - both were big flops. 'viralukketha veekkam', 'koodi vaazhthaal kodi nanmai' range-il, I heard next he wants to take up 'aathi choodi', so next movie may be 'aram seyya virumbu' (or aRam seyya virumbu), aaruvathu sinam, etc..

RR, you are correct. Venkatesh directed Aei, but Sekhar produced the film. The article by Hindu says that too.

// 'aram seyya virumbu' (or aRam seyya virumbu), aaruvathu sinam, etc..//

:rotfl:

RR/SN, one of these had IR's music - which was that one, do you remember?

SN23
in naan petha magane oorvasi was NR's pair. Radhika played the other woman. Manoram was the mamiyaar.

rajdes,
'pugundha veeda porandha veeda' had music by IR

there is one more movie, pongalO pongaL with viknesh, sangeetha etc.

who directed 'peNkaL veetin kaNkaL?' ?

PengaL veetin KaNgaL was directed by TP Gajendran, I think.
Wasnt oNNa irukka kathukkanum also by V.Sekar with Sivakumar, Nazar(?), Manorama in the cast?

Yes..onna irukka athukkanum was by V. Sekar... Varavu Ettana selavu pathana was the biggest hit of his career.. There was another movie, kaalam maari pochu starring Pandiyarajan, R.sundarrajan and vadivelu which was also by V. sekar

what about poranthaalum aampiLaa porakka koodaathu?

SN23: I agree with you on the better voice in this song. PS had that pride. But SJ was given more prominence than PS & VJ. In second para PS had just one line. Say is there "go with the mass". Since SJ was still singing more in early 90's than other, she was given lead singing by Chandrabose.

Picks #223 and 234

http://raretfm.mayyam.com/stream/pow06/nenjil_em.rm
http://raretfm.mayyam.com/stream/pow06/achamillai_em.rm


Songs: nenjil uramumindri\achamillai achamillai
Film: ezhavadhu manidhan
Singers : Rajkumar Bharathi\SPB
Lyrics: Mahakavi Bharathiar
Music: Lvaidhyanathan

Two songs to remember the mahakavi on his birth date. When we speak of 'ezhavadhu manidhan' only songs by KJY come to our mind. Todays pick are not commonly heard songs. "achamillai" is a very different attempt by LV and RB shines in 'nenjil uramumindri'. RB also sang the nalladhor veenai song in this film.
I think 'ezhavadhu manidhan' was the first tamil film by Malayalam film director Hariharan. A very thin looking Raghuvaran made his debut too. Unfortunately the film did not very well. It had the artsy film look and feel and you know how much our folks hate such films.

The songs were outstanding..'kakkai chiraginile' and 'veenaiyadi nee enakku' are two wonderful songs. LV, unfortunately, did not not do many films. I remember the wonderful songs he did in 'kavidhai paada neramillai' . His other tamil films are 'vaazhthungaL', 'lottery ticket' 'Dasarathan'.
His bgm for 'pesum padam', 'sandhya raagam' ,'marupakkam' etc won him critical acclamation

Bandha Paasam movie is something like this. SG and GG are brothers and SVR is the father who is a rich person.Devika is a writer and Savithri helps her financially for education etc. GG-Savithri are lovers at college.
SVR loses all money and becomes poor. SG and GG try to recover. Misunderstanding between Savithri and GG comes up when she realises that GG has lied her that he is rich (before he became poor). Devika is helped financially by Savithri and Devika loves SG but SG does not respond. They both sing this song then..

In one of the interviews of Kamal, I heard that Indian was inspired from NPM.

tvs raju - are you the yesteryear MD, by any chance?
Sure I have seen this name as MD in some movie title.
Ramki/RR, thanks for the reply. I remember PEP, that one which had a clone of, of all people, Captain, in the lead as a romantic hero :-). Moondru scenegalukku appuram velinadappu seidhom.(Avvalavu neram thaanginadhe persusu!)

RR, now, do you know the movie which had TVS Raju as MD. I am pretty sure there was one, which I saw in DD and he also had a weird looking adaimozhi which too I have forgotten.

Ramki,

there is one more movie by LV, 'ninaivE ennai nerungaathE'. One popular song ?? (at least in Mars) is 'sangamam nam sangamam' by KJY & KS.Chitra. The other songs in that movie are so so

Which year did Ezhavadhu Manithan get the National Award?

Are you thinking of T.V. Raju who was the MD for "kanimuththu paappa"?

Ramki: Nice songs for remembering the bday of the great poet, esp the ones sung by his great grandson himself though we have different versions of the some of Barathi's songs by other singers.

Ramki -

Thanks for unearthing these rare ones. I had not heard both in a very long time. The SPB solo is quite inventive, and one can imagine a hip current MD singing it himself with loads of auto-tuner help. :)

Thank you all

* according to Tamilcinema.com, EM came out in 1972

Picks #225

http://raretfm.mayyam.com/stream/pow06/poo_kn.rm

Songs: poo poothathai yaar paarthadhu
Film: kadhanayagan
Singer : KJYesudoss
Lyrics: Vairamuthu
Music: Chandrabose

Chandrabose can get inspired very easily. 'kaNNan enge' song from his very first film 'madhura geetham' was a direct lift of 'sapna mera toot gaya'.
We have see other instances of his 'inspirations' in POW and other threads.
So can he resist 'flicking' when the film itself is 'copied'? 'kadhanyagan' is tamil remake of 'nadodikattu' (mohanlal). The beautiful 'vaishaga sandhye' tuned by Shyam became 'poo poothadhai'. 'Vaishaga sandhye' is the first malayalam song i learnt completely(every word) just for its beauty.
I was just happy when its tamil version was released (But not very happy with the interludes, CB should have copied the whole song).
Vairamuthu did a good job with the lyrics but somehow i feel KJY is better in the original.
(http://www.musicindiaonline.com/l/20/s/movie_name.3627/)


Btw 'kadhanayagan' is an hilarious film. The comedy was so good.Pandiarajan and SVsekar had a good on screen chemistry.
I loved the film. Havent seen the original though. Click here for details on nadodikattu

Ramki,
It was 1982 and the movie got state award.

thenraja, bang on. Yeah, it was TV Raju. My mistake. Now, for the tough one - what was that weird looking adaimozhi he had :-)

Thanks raj for catching the typo

Pick #226

http://raretfm.mayyam.com/stream/pow06/annai_anv.rm

Song: annai thalattu paada
Film: ambigai neril vandhaaL
Singer : PSuseela
Lyrics: Panju Arunachalam
Music: iLaiyaraja


A rare melody by PSuseela .
'kalyaana selai' and 'kaNNithene' are the popular numbers from ANV.
'annai' was mostly deisred by rare song seekers like us.
I did not watch the film but i believe the song is picturised on Radha. If i remember correctly from the reviews i read this the story line: Mohan, a playboy, is a regular 'client' of Uma. One day he lays eyes on Uma's sister Radha, who is not into the profession. He pursues her in name of love , gets her pregnant and walks out. Rest of the film deals with Radha entering Mohans family and marrying him.
Manivannan was the director.
IR rarely used PS for Radha . I remember very few songs in this combination.

'azhage unnai',
'un nenje thottu sollu'
'vaaLai paruvathile'
'pothikittu oothudhadi'
'aapakada annakiLi'

are some of the numbers i can recollect in IR-PS-Radha combo.

Ramki -

Thanks for this PS solo. I had all but forgotten it, but now the melody just won't go away. A lovely effort by PS and IR. This brings to mind the SJ/IR "Thalaattu Maari Ponadhae" and (SPB)"Thaenae Thenpaadi Meenae" which were also from the same period? (mid 80s?)
Ambigai Naeril Vandhaal also starred Ambika? Or was that some other film?

Ramki, 'un nenja thottu sollu' was not included in the movie, so you can't say :)
