Contrary to what Sujata feels, I would rate IR's work "Karaiyellaam Shenbagapoo" as an offbeat , sort of experimental themmaangu cum western fusion works which was unique and markedly different from his own graamiya works in other BR/GA type of movies.

This is one of 53 requests of Rajes. Rajes sent me a neat excel file with a listing of songs she would like to listen in POW. This is one of the few i have with me.
Dasari Narayana Rao remade his telugu superhit 'sivaranjani'(Jaisudha, Hariprasad) as Natchathiram in tamil . I think the film was produced by Sripriyas mother girija. The film had sripriya, hariprasad, subhashini, Mohanbabu and many guest stars including sivaji, kamal and rajini. The film did well in tamil too. SG duo rehashed some of the original tues by Ramesh naidu.
(I prefer the tamil version of 'avaL oru menagai' compared to its original).
'vaigai karaiyinil oru paravai'(SJ) and ponnangani poothu vandhado(PS,SPB) are other good songs.
The film did well in Tamil too ==> I memory says no. Scenes where Sripriya comes home late night and finds no food in the house the whole family sleeping soundly was widely criticized in all Tamil magazines. I think Sripriya will end up drinking water or something. In telugu it was a super hit no doubt.
the project in Telugu was dear that Dasari introduced Sujatha to Telugu as Sivaranjini
Thanks for the song
Ramki, the well of ilangai broadcasting cannot apparently dry up! so many songs coming out from your collections! Thansk
the original of pow is navami naati vennela by PS & SPB is a class
JC sings extremely neat and sweet. I love this song just b'cas of JC. Thanks Ramki.
balaji: Actress Sujatha was introduced in a telugu movie called Girintagu or something like that. Not Sivaranjanai. SR role was played by Jayasudha in Telugu.
"vaanam keezhe" is also mildly based on Sivaranjini raga which is apt for this film. "AvaL oru" is a classical Sivaranjini
