viziyE viziyE (Vazhkaichakkaram)
Pick #1076
Song: viziyE viziyE
Film: Vazhkaichakkaram
Music: Shankar-Ganesh
Singers: S.P.Balasubramanyam, K.S.Chitra
Lyrics: ?
Year: 1990
Today's pick is an overlooked song scored by Shankar-Ganesh. Don't know why the song did not become popular. It is beautiful.
Vazhakichakkaram directed by Manivannan was produced by Thirupur Mani who had a record of producing some quality films in the 80s. However, this one may have been a formula film with Satyaraj and Gowthami in the lead.

Pick #1077
Song: kUdaiyila karuvAdu
Film: Oruthalai Ragam
Music: T.Rajendar
Singer: Malaysia Vasudevan
Lyrics: T.Rajendar
Year: 1980
As much as the industry tried to box him into the 'rustic and boisterous' stereotype Malaysia Vasudevan repeatedly proved his versatility. He can be loud and naughty, he can be smooth and romantic, he can be rustic, he can be urban and modern, he can be a sweet lover, he can be a strong and protective brother, he can be mischievous, he can be pensive. All through his various dimensions he exuded masculinity. Smooth and masculine are not mutually exclusive. Romantic and masculine are not mutually exclusive (it better not be). Pensive and masculine are not mutually exclusive. This blend was his uniqueness. Malaysia Vasudevan gave us so many classics in his lifetime. We will pay him tribute this week.
