Pick #607

Song: nIthi thEvan mayanggukiRAn
Film: Neethi Devan Mayakkam
Music: K.V.Mahadevan
Singer: P.Susheela
Lyrics: Kannadasan
Year: 1982

"Neethi Devan Mayakkam" must have been (re)made in Telugu and Tamil at the same time. Directed by Bapu the film starred Madhavi, Bhanuchandar, Devi, Major Sundarrajan, Sowcar Janaki and others. Kamalahasan does a cameo role. Madhavi gives a good performance. Bhanuchandar gives an okay performance and gets away with his good looks. Saw him recently in the film "Thoovaanam". Still looks handsome. Read somewhere that Madhavi, retired from films, is running a beauty salon in Hyderabad.

The film has four songs. Three of them sound very TeFM-ish. And the lyrics sound TeFM-ish too. Today's pick is the fourth song.
The other songs are:
ARiraNdu paniraNdu - PS,SPB
dharma thulAbAram - SPB
oththigai thAnE - PS,SPB,SPS

Hi Neel..

its a good song.
vara vara kadhai ezhudhAma thappichukareenga ! :evil:

BTW... idhu "insaaf kaa tarasu" story-thAnE ? mAdhavi-kku pair-A nadichadhu yaar ?

thalaivar raanuva major a opening le varuvaare antha movie dhaane ithu... madhavi kku pair mike mohan nu ninaikkiren.

madhu & bobgalee,
Yes, it is the remake of Insaaf Ka Tarasu. Kamal plays a military guy in a court scene. Madhavi's boyfriend is not Mohan. His name is Raja or something. Not Kadalora Kavithaigal Raja. Never seen him any other Tamil film.

Pick #608

Song: kanagasabai / vanthALE / chErikkuL
Film: Kann Sivanthal Mann Sivakkum
Music: One or more of (Ilaiyaraja, Guru Dhananjayan, Traditional)
Singers: Ilaiyaraja, S.Rajeswari, A.L.Narayanan, T.V.Gopalakrishnan, Saibaba
Lyrics: Gopalakrishna Bharati, Vairamuthu
Year: 1982

The only full length song from "Kann Sivanthal Mann Sivakkum" that I know of is "manithA manithA ini un". Today's picks are three bit songs and two mirudhangam bits strewn over four scenes of the film. I put them togehter in one file. Do not know if any of these song bits are available in full length. "kanagasabai" is for a short dance recital by Guru Dhananjayan. "vanthALE" is the background song when Vijayamohan and Poornima Jayaram walk and talk together developing their friendship. "chErikkuL" is the background song when the Zamindar uses one of the poor village girls for sex. Not sure about the voices other than Ilaiyaraja and S.Rajeswari. Hence listing few others credited in the film.

The film directed by Sridhar Rajan was the story of a few idealists fighting against the dominance of the powerful in the society. It starred Vijayamohan, Poornima Jayaram, Jaishankar, Rajesh, Calcutta Viswanathan, Jayamala, and others. It was considered a good film in its time. But watching it now makes me think that it is a very tiring story. Poornima Jayaram in her starched cotton sarees, big pottu and the occassional untied long hair representing the urban elite of the 1980s was a breath of fresh air in the film.

vanthaale is classic. Love that whistling finish.
