Very nice read on all the Udaya Geetham songs with your wonderful write-up with some great experience of yours. Great Job sir! :clap:
UDHAYA GEETHAM - Stunning stuff, App_eng.
Paadu nilave then kavithai.... is my favorite, I often treat myself multiple times. Tonight is no exception. andha vaasanthi aalap by Januvum, longing-joyous enchantment mood change by Janu & Bala , pouring strings, flute and violin..Wow! Wow!
Vicky has done a good job with the prelude of sangeetha megam.....for Raaja's site.

Dear App,
Lovely write up for Kaathalin Theebam ondru, The youthful, handsome & dashing Rajini , oozing with romantic expressions, has always been my screen favourite. He has looked tht good in only a handful number of songs, as a woman, I have always felt tht love that is flowing in tht song, a true love beautifully confessed by a man to his lady love. And the sweet En Vazhvile Varum Anbe Vaa... :bow:
I have liked tht movie in particular too, Rajini has done pretty good comedy portion. And not forgetting the excellent BGM work, my eyes will lit up for the bgm , aft Rajini giving 'muah' to Madhavi forcefully, and getting punished. so-called tied to the tree outside Madhavi's house, They make an ideal pair too, IMO.

App,
3 Super songs in one go! Would have expected to savour one by one! Still no issues!
Udhya Geetham was released on Tamil New Year's day in April 1985. There were so many releases during that period with the likes of Khakki Sattai, Naa Sigappu Manidhan, Neethiyin Nizhal, Udhya Geetham, Pillai Nila and Kalyana Agathigal hitting the screens at the same time. Myself working at Kerala took 5 days leave combined with Vishu and came down to Madurai as I usually do and my theatre yathra started with right earnest. 11th April Thursday Khakki Sattai was released and I saw the Morning opening show at Madurai Central, next day 12th Naan Sigappu manidhan got released and again I saw Morning opening show at Mathi theatre. 13th Saturday Neethiyin Nizhal released and being a NT film [though he was a guest artist] needless to say it was also an opening show affair this time at Meenakshi theatre in the morning. The same day night show I saw Udhaya Geetham at Sundaram. Next day Sunday night show it was Kalyana Agathigal at Shakthi. Monday afternoon show saw Padikkadha Pannaiyaar [NT - KSG combo] which had been released a month before that in Nadana theatre and finally on Tuesday afternoon it was Pillai Nila at Minipriya. Took the night bus back to Kerala on the same day.[My grand father while I was leaving home for the bus stand said ஊருக்கு வந்த அன்னைக்கு காலையிலே பார்த்தது. மறுபடியும் இப்போதான் பார்க்கிறேன்!]. Well those were the days!
Divine, சங்கீத மேகம் IIRC is by Muthulingam.
App, I think there is some other song by Mu. Metha which preceded Padu Nilave. Talking of lyric writers this was one movie where all the six songs were written by six different writers. Other than Muthulingam and Mu.Metha, Thene thenpandi meene was by Vaali, ennodu paatu paadungal was by M.G.Vallabhan [?], மானே தேனே கட்டிப்பிடி was by Naa.Kamarasan and உதய கீதம் பாடுவேன் was by Vairamuthu.
<Dig
App that reminds me one more thing. You had mentioned Paadum Vanambadi was by VM. But i have my own doubts. In NPP, Paadava in paadalai alone was written by VM [IIRC].

Great going! Keep it coming.

Murali sir,
Your post is quite informative as usual and the statement "ஊருக்கு வந்த அன்னைக்கு காலையிலே பார்த்தது. மறுபடியும் இப்போதான் பார்க்கிறேன்" made me :lol2: What a dedicated movie fan!
#181 என்னோடு பாட்டுப் பாடுங்கள்
(உதயகீதம், 1985 )
We've earlier talked about the 'ennOdu pAdungaL, nalvAzhththuppAdalkaL' in this thread. One gets reminded of that number as both had the same 'sing with me' phrase in the pallavi, apart from the IR-SPB connection.
This is a flash-back song in the movie, featuring the 'dancing son' of a TF field genius, Nagesh. I think Anand Babu got intro'd in a TR movie and continued his disco dances in a number of movies in the mid-80's before trying to take up lead roles and disappearing from the scene. While people may ridicule his dance now, i.e. after watching the likes of Prabhu Deva and his brother, it's a fact that people enjoyed AB during the dhinam dhinam un mugam / ennOdu pAttuppAdungaL time period. (I wasn't among those 'people' BTW but I was a big admirer of his dad's dancing).
The song starts like a reggae (IR indulges in such forms briefly before bringing in his own genre) and then moves on northie-ish, with SPB infusing a lot of life. My favourite parts are the sweet wind instrument sounds and the brief synth sounds (that are like guitar & piano but neither). It was the least preferred song within the movie at the time of arrival but I was generally happy that IR got another movie full of hit songs that reverberated around the state. From that POV, happy for this song :wink: though at times FFed when listening to cassettes holding all songs from this movie.
Plum was talking about Revathy switching from saree to modern in pagal nilavu first but I don't remember which came first - PN or UG. In any case, I didn't watch PN in theater. It was around this time period (late-84 & 85) that the "deck vAdakaikku" culture started in TN. Since we had the solidaire color tv in the hostel common room, quite often guys will collect together some money and rent deckku / cassette and watch movies in the hostel. pagal nilavu belonged to that deckcku-watched-films-list (MR's first film) and I'm not sure about the timing. Per Murali sir, UG is April and so high probability for that to be firsttu...
Another college recall is the badminton (i.e. the ball one, pooppandhu) tournaments that we held on behalf of our hostel. Back then, in REC, each hostel hosted a couple of cups/shields for games / sports and was allotted an indoor and an outdoor tournament. Those inter-hostel ones were like India-Pak matches while there was absolutely no focus on inter-college stuff (where REC was generally a loser...except in cricket I think). Since I had a 'poonthAks' into BB college team in the first year, when we moved into Emerald hostel which was the host of that game, I became the default organizer. It was fun collecting fund from college and also collect from teams and then manage prizes, matches, fixtures, function etc.
Let me tell the most funny part, however. The purchase of items for the tourney! Coming from a village, stricttu dad-mum and total non-exposure to techniques such as "bill adjustments", it was a shocker when some of my hostelmates wanted me to approve of. (i.e. use such funds to buy personal items and inflate the bills for prizes / refreshments etc). Well, while I didn't let it happen, I got educated / seasoned as to what practices people can do in purchase and wasn't too much shocked when such things got caught / people punished etc when working in the industry during later years. Sticking to the "best policy" is always a live-saver. (Ofcourse, I got ridiculed often - for proper use of funds, even returning unused money - but always felt proud in not letting people booze with that).
Actually the seagull incident happened later that year, in Melbourne Test Dec 1985 and it was Border who refused it. And I doubt if Kapil was a veggie :-DQuote:

Shastri just got out slogging and India were 117 in the 32nd over needed 90 more from 108 balls(a challenging task in those times). Kapil just got in as we left and later that night we tuned in to the 9pm AIR news that India made it. The next day's Hindu had Kapil and Vengsarkar congratulating each other after the winning hit(Caption: WE'VE DONE IT AND HOW!). I read in Gavaskar's book One Day Wonder that Kapil smashed 26 off Hadlee's last 2 overs and India got those 90 runs off 11 overs. In fact that Indian innings should be available on Youtube.
App Sir, just sneaked in to read your updates before a dentist visit and it was all worth it....as I could bring your narration to my mind's eye whenever I needed it :-D. I am so excitied that we're crossing into the 2nd half of 80s.
App Sir,
Just before Udaya Geetham's release, there was this Ranji trophy final between Delhi and Bombay which I am sure you and your friends must have followed over AIR(Apr 1-6 1985). More details here: http://thevictortrumpercricketboard.yuku.com/topic/2549
The Rothmans Cup happened Mar 22-29 followed by Ranji final, one week before tamil new year.

In any case, I didn't watch the seagull-kill on TV but only read in hindu but definitely watched those adichchu noRukkal of Hadlee.
What a shouting in our common room!
(It was a great time period when 4 of the all-time-top all-rounders where on cricketing scene. Kapil & Botham were the obviously better batsmen while Imran & Hadlee the slightly better (i.e. only by a small margin) bowlers.
All those four were exciting to watch and were a great inspiration for us in all games behind the hostel (regardless of whether regular cricket ball or tennis ball versions)!
That's why I'm getting reminded of it when writing about UG - thank you for the dates as we can uncover some brain wirings :-)Quote:

App Sir and others,
I have lot of articles/photos/video clips of that WCC 85, plus that Rothmans Cup game vs Pak video highlights,plus a couple from the Ind-Eng series Dec 1984. If you need, I can upload it somewhere and pm you all. That game vs Pak, we were trying very hard to catch it over radio but the transmission was too noisy and we had to abandon it. It was Rajaram in the AIR 7:10pm Maanila Seidhigal who broke the news of the win. If it raises anyone's sense of nostalgia, I will be happy to contribute :D
Yes, it would be nice!Quote:

Based on the info we got from Murali sir, each song of UG got penned by a different lyricist. And, we have the mAnE thEnE thingy in two songs :lol2: So, the statement of 'mAnE / thEnE ellAm pOttukkagna' seems to be the norm of TFM during IR's peak. (May be even before and after that time period).
One imaginary conversation during UG composing (assuming the politician producer was present)...
rAsA to lyricist # 1 : aNNE, indha meterkku oru pAttu
lyricist #1: mAnE thEnE kattippudi
producer : pramAdham, ippadiyE irukkattum
rAsA (thinking - 'illEnnA Auto varum') - AmANNE romba kachchidhamA irukku
rAsA to lyricist # 2: idhu oru menmaiyAna thAlAttu aNNE
lyricist # 2 : thEnE thenpANdi meenE
producer : deiveegam, keep it!
rAsA (thinking - 'eppudi ellArum sathi paNrAngO, hmmm, EdhAchchum instrumentalla shape paNNa vENdiyathu thAn') - nallA irukku saar...
Before next song, during the interval, meets the lyricist # 3 in the rest room, 'sAr, eppadiyAchchum indha mAn thEn illAma ezhudhunga sAr'
Back to composing...
rAsA to L #3 : idhu dhAn tune
L # 3 : pAdu nilAvE thEn kavidhai
rAsA (thalaiyai pichchufying, but thinking of auto)...romba nallArukku sAr
Later asks L #3, 'nAn un kitta enna sonnEn'.
L #3 replies 'neenga sonnadhukkappuRam producer vandhu 'mAn' or 'thEn' illAtti pinneeruvEnnu solleettAr, nAn enna paNNa'
Interesting song, with the sweet mridhangam arrangement. Funny to watch on screen, what a number of ways to make fun of police in movies :lol:
After posting the above, got reminded that the sangeetha mEgham also does 'thEn' sindhal :-)
App, thanks. You are right. Pagal Nilavu came out only in July 1985.
But Plum, if you talk about Modern dress then Revathy was wearing that even in Oru Kaidhiyin diary that came out during Pongal 1985. Remember பொன் மானே கோபம் ஏனோ song sequence?
App, மானே தேனே கட்டிப்புடி had that inimitable SPB touch when after the rendering of the charanam he would sing the pallavi again with the words getting pronounced as மாமன் தோளை தொட்டு கடி.

app :lol: Scenario very plausible. Biggest abuser of "mAnE, tEnE, pon_" has to be Valee. Not sure now who wrote the above ones, but later when Valee was heavily used (post Vairamuthu break-up), those words were everywhere.
App, lovely posts on some real gem of songs. :clap: And that mAnE-thEnE stuff was :lol:. Idhukku sila pEru rAsAva vEra erachchu kottuvAnga. :evil: (of course, we really don’t know what the truth is)
The college fest organizer (especially the main inter-college one) used to be the most sought-after post in my college. This generally led to several inter-dept scuffles, drunken brawls with hockey bats, clubs and stuff. In the first year I quite din’t understand the madness behind it. Then, some days after the fest, I saw the organizer dude riding a brand new bike! “There goes our fest fund” a friend commented. And this could be witnessed every year – upgrading of bikes, phones, watches, etc – ketta pasanga, all nasty vasool rajas. And amidst all this, we guys used to, like ambi pasangals, break our heads to organize the music shows, dumbcharades, quiz, etc., the prizes mostly being invaluable certificates! :lol: . In one of the rock competitions that we’d organized, the winners were gifted 1500 bucks as cash price. The band promptly rejected it saying it wouldn’t even be enough for their drinks that night! :oops: And the fest organizer sported a brand new gold bracelet that year :evil:

IR had used these words for the beginning of the mettu and VM just developed rest of the song. (So there is some truth in what IR told to the press about VM getting national award for this song).
On the same lines, I do not have to think much to guess who wrote "Maane Thene Kattipudi"
That is because Wally, sorry Vaali, learnt English by then.Quote:

Next ball was a replay with Cairns lofting it, Srikkanth reaching out too early and the ball bounced over him and into the fence. Gavaskar was really pissed now and sent Srikkanth marching to fine leg in order to hide him from the ball. However, Cairns swung the next ball high to fine leg and this time Srikkanth finally caught it after a long wait. There were several kgs of relief on his face once he safely caught it.
Maybe you and your collegemates missed this incident as this could have happened in your lunch time :smile2:
#183 உதய கீதம் பாடுவேன், உயிர்களை நான் தொடுவேன்
(உதயகீதம், 1985 )
It sometimes fascinates me that people who don't believe in accountability to a supreme being (and hence no belief in "after life") too indulge in charitable works, as much as their opposite camp :-) Altruism seems to be part of human genome / DNA. While this song's situation is not exactly related to altruism, at the minimum, the singer wants to be beneficial to another human before his life gets terminated. And, is it not a fact that all humans face definite termination - with just the answers to questions such as when / how much time left only being different ? :-)
Well, while not as unselfish as my dad, me too have a humble history in this regard. If we limit to college days / activities, I'm reminded of the NSS stuff. (Though I wanted to become a soldier in the military during middle school days - heavily inspired by seeing dad in the 'home guard' uniform and his close friend, a towering police official, who called me 'anbu marumagan' who later on served as an inspiration to director of gentleman, I switched to 'love your enemies' policy in high school. Ofcourse, did serve as a boy scout in school but in college, NCC was a strict NO and NSS was the alternative).
Interestingly, the name of our hostel's NSS-chief was, "Isai arasan" :-) No wonder we both were like 'eechchai & chakkappazham'. Well, we had planted 1000's of saplings, collected loads of clothes / classified / distributed at times of flood and such things. In addition, we had fun too - in an "adopted" village which was near Padalur in the Trichy-Madras highway. It was an evening of conducting entertainment to the villagers (song / dance / skit). The same "bread" bus taking us there and back. Memorable days!
Very soulful song, excellent singing by SPB and tabla playing havoc to one's heart! The interludes create a very strong emotion as well (flute at the end of first interlude is simply goosebump stuff)! A song that can evoke strong waves of thinking, like, why so much suffering, what is the purpose of life, what do I want to do with the remaining time of my life etc!
App,
Kalakkal post on 'Maane ThEne Kattipudi' :lol:, and totally contrasting yet moving post on the title song! Great to hear about your social/charitable activities. Definitely those are special and unforgettable moments. Well narrated and very true! Only I can salute you! :notworthy: I can now remember you whenever I listen to this song!
