Favorite Scenes/Songs from THALAIVAR Rajini films #3

I like Mano too. Just that he sounded horrible in this particular film.

The fact that Mano always tries to immitate SPB (& ends up pathetically) must be the reason PS hates him this much.

That aside, Mano did have some very good numbers.

Muqala Muqabala is his 'OWN' voice the rest is all SPB wannabe :rotfl3:

BTW , I met him in restaurant in London,, not many recognised him... he seemed friendly ,... may that was the 'Jack Daniel' he was drinking :lol2:

No No, I dont hate him at all ... he makes a mockery out of him self doing that, remember arunmozhi tried this one but he stopped straight away knowing it doesn't work out..

any one remember 'Kovai' Soundararajan... he tried to imitate TMS, and he was a good imitator, he knew his limits and stuck to it.

look at unnimenon another Dr.KJY wannabe :lol2:

Thanks to Dr.IR and Dr.SPB.... During Anjali film time SPB sir had throat operationn and was unable to sing for months and months, Mano use to work in IR troop as a helping hand... and he was big fan of SPB and a imitator,so IR gave him chance, then we all know what happend :rotfl:

mano is not just another imitator...he has sung lots of great songs ..one of the prominent singers of his time singers..prolly next to spb and jesudas.

he imitates spb..right..but he is unique in his own way

Ada adhu anjali illabA. Idhayaththai thirudaadhE. Mano sang all the songs which were sung by SPB in the Telugu version. Meesicals can confirm.

Another dig - I think ARR used him extremely well. I like all Mano-ARR songs.

But seriously, the songs were awesome and I am talking also about the smaller ones:
Aatula Annakili,
Munti Munthi vinayagaree
Kannai Thirantha.

Then the other big ones.

Fun and folksy
Vadi Vettalai pakka
Adi Panthalilee.

Naughty
Madattile Kanni Madatile (that Shankar/Harris stole for Anniyan)

Romantic, with tinge of sadness:
Konji Konji Alaigalooda.

And of course, the most majestic of it all (that probably inspired the picturisation of all the dance songs in Muthu later).
Malai Kovil Vasalil.....

Then, of course, Rajini. There is still the performer in him in this film, may it be comedy scene (Govinda scene had my wife laughing till she teared) or somber ones. Too bad, this film is sandwiched between the Baashas and the Padaiyappas that it might be forgotten. I hope not.

---

Agree with each and every word. There are around 10 songs in the film and I love all of them (Mano's gruff voice not withstanding). And Rajini was so natural in the 2nd half. Reminds you of Guru Sishyan :D

---

Ivangala yellam yaarappa paada vachathu, karumum

His songs to credit are Muqala Muqabala, the rest are all Pathetic!

---

SPB illaina... maththavanga ellorum pathetic'ah :lol:

I like most of Mano's songs :)

---

Yopv umaku kanNen nollaiya :rotfl:, mathavengalariyum pathetic nu sonNena.... read what I write b4 jumping up and down..

BTW umakuk than VK vitta mathvangaellarum Jujubi..

o papa lali(mano) in tamil is such a great song...and I havent listened to the telugu version(spb) until recent past.

SPB - :notworthy: ..taking nothing away from mano.... SPB was just awesome...showed the difference between good singer and a great singer...he just carried the mood of the song to completely different level..
