nijam.. :shock: 1000% nijam... :rotfl:

but... what a nice song ? :P

Thanks for the kind words Ramki. I am glad I can share all these rare, beautiful songs with tfm fans through you. Thank you for your service.

I thought Vaazhvin Sowbhagiyam Vandhadhu was from Vijay Bhasker. What a fullness and such richness in V.Kumar' compositions. I did not know so far?! Very nostalgic about V.Kumar and VijayBhasker song's more than any other composer's, including my favorite underdogs, Sankar-Ganesh. Their songs were like pillar songs upon which Ungal Viruppam ran other evergreen compositions. What happened to these silent geniuses? Was Ilaiyaraaja the cause that we lost these musical gods? Is this what IR meant by stamina to face the competition?

Dear Natha

V.kumar&vijay bhaskar belonging to 60's&70'S era., i.e when MSV was at his peak. They were not able to make much presence due to MSV factor but they did remarkable songs . Late 70's they dont have any presence at all.

Ramki, aniyAyaththukku kolreenga.. pAvam KRV :lol:

I read some comments about this film from a old magazine. It seems KRV looked like KRV of Ooty varai uravu days :lol:

Songs incl Aandavan bhoomiyil (solo by PS) were good.

Vairamuthu sonnadhu pOla, VJ's singing is like a mayil thEn kudithu vittu pAdiyadhu mAdhiri irukkum indha pAttil :-) Wonderful song and singing (not lyrics 'angangaL...' :lol:)

Ramki ungal comments padithu sirippu adakka mudiyavillai.vayirae punnaahivittathu. :lol:
I have seen this movie and have this song in my collection. & the only thing i remember in this movie is this song.
In the last scene of the movie someone would comment 'nadagame ulagam'
During my childhood I used to like to listen to the 2nd interlude where SPB & VJ sing 'papapa sanisa...' and would increase the volume of the radio just for that time.

Pick #338

http://tfmpage.com/stream/pow06/ninai_ao.rm

Song: ninaithadhai mudippadhu
Movie: aayirathil oruthi
Singers : PSuseela, SPB
Lyrics: vaali ?
MD: VKumar


'AO' is yet another KRV film but in this one KRV was less adventerous and donned her regular traditional look. Long long ago, thanks to DD(or no thanks? :) i watched this boring film.
Film had KRV paired with Balaji,sujatha with srikanth and kamalhassan with Jaisudha. If i remember correctly, KRV played aNNi to sujatha and Jaisudha. Sujatha is a lawyer and her brother balaji(married to KRV) is a drunkard.
Kamal played his usual role of 70s..playboy.
Todays song is picturised on kamal and Jaisudha.

I love the song for the voices of SPB and PS. They sound very good together in this song. This used to be a rare song but i recently saw this in one of SPB duet CDs.

Other songs from AO
'kovil nalla kovil'(PS)
'enakkoru udhavi sei'(SPB,VJ)

Ramki

Sure, sweet voices of SPB and PS.

"Kadavul amaithu vaitha medai" in sayal balamaga ulladhu indha padalil sila idangalil. Arambam vera padali pol ulladhu, but unable to point it

Isn't this movie where KRV would be 'Maavu Atting?'
Remember the poster like this

Bala

You have hosted very very nice songs.

thanks.

I went to overseas so I couldn't joint the forum for last few days.

If i'm not mistaken B.Vasantha got TamilNadu- kalaimAmaNi award recently by JAYA's Gov.

In AO (a typical KRV oriented or heroine dominant story - KRV and sujatha). Pavam balaji, srikanth and kamal. KRV went to prison because of killed a pannaiyar. The case handled by Sujatha. She asked KRV to married her drunker Brother Balaji. Sri kanth was a policeman. Later comes know that Kamal was the killer. (actually some other killed him).

Ramki, actually AO is a boring film but not that boring. I've watched recently in RAJ tv. oklah....

Ayya Ramki, Mayil mosama paadum-naa, kuyil endru vaithu koLLungaL. Andha statement was by VM, therinjukkunga :-)

KRV-ai undu illainnu paNNu mudivaa? Next song must be from Naan vaazha vaippEn (Thiru theril varum silaiyO). KRV comes with boy-cut short hair and pudikka pudikka tight pant and shirt :lol:

AO song is a mix of "edho ninaithadhu" song and Kadavul amaithu vaitha mEdai, but a good duet to listen (me hearing for the 1st time). Nandri Ramki.

BTW, Balaji and KRV paired in a film Gowri (??), a re-make of Chiththi (Padmini - MR Radha film).

"Thiru theril varum silai" - Pattu
"Silai varum ther" - visuals :-)

Ramki

Thanks a lot. Really rare one. somehow resembles AAM THUM from the hindi film bobby. Very nice to hear this song after a long time.

ramesh

Never heard this good song before Ramki.
Yesterday I happened to watch Jaya tv afternoon movie for about 1/2 hr .And lo behold , this was another obscure KRV movie.The moment I saw her in the movie I couldnot control myself laughing ,remembering your comments of Nadagame Ulagam.
THis one was called 'Janaki Sabatham'with KRV,Ravichandran,VA Nirmala& Vijaykumar.There was a very good song though much to my surprise'Ilamai kovil ondru'

Thanks everyone.

Mahesh :)

'iLamai kovil ondru' is a lovely song

Ramki ,rendu naala paatae illai.Enne aayitru? :roll:

Pick #339

http://tfmpage.com/stream/pow06/anangan_kk.rm

Song: anangan angathan
Movie: kaNkaatchi
Singers : SPB, LRE
Lyrics: ?
MD: kunnakudi vaidhyanathan


A tongue twister for sure. The song has some unusual words. I wonder who the lyricisit is. My friend mentioned that actor sivakumar , in one of his interviews, stated that he had a tough time lip syncing to this song.
What is more surprising to me is how close SPBs voice sounds to Sivakumar's . LRE too does a good job.
Bhakthi paadal type of music and weird rock music interludes in the latter part are the downsides of the song.
I believe a herd of actors were in this movie. Was the song picturised on Sivakumar and kumari padmini?


Thanks to Neel D for sending this song.

May be the film was named 'Kankaatchi' after the herd of actors who were cast in the movie.
I have heard this song several times in the past on radio.
The song being like a bhakthi paatu suits it ,due to the sandham in the song.Its the rock music that folows that spoils it.
It reminds me of 'muthai thiru'? by TMS

Ramki,
yes, this song is for Sivakumar & Kumari Padmini. I think it is A. Sagunthala and 'kallapart' Natarajan who comes on stage for the western type interludes.
The film had Manorama & Suruli too.

Ramki..

the song starts with the voice of APN.. and continues with SPB and LRE..
Sivakumar and Kumari Padmini as Rathi manmadhan in flower dresses... and KaLLapart Natarajan and A.Sakunthala dancing with small bulbs attached to their dress.. :lol:

suruLi and manorama watching... :P

Another song I can think of from 'kaN kAtchi' is 'kANum kalai ellAm kaN kAtchi' by PBS and MR Vijaya.

Nalla, santhamulla paadal varigaL. thanks Ramki.

I like the way both SPB and LRE said the word "en uyir mannavA" in different type and feelings.

I had the same experience too with Sivakumar.
I've meet him during his few visits to KL.

He mentioned all the APN's dialog before this song. I'm wondering, during our conversation, he talk about all his experience with APN and the movies dialog. not only his but also co-artistes. Great.

I'll attach the wordings by APN and the song lyric on Monday. Can I Ramki Sir?

thenraja...

one more good song..

"kuRavar kulam kaakkum kumarA nee vAzhga"

Ramki.... kindly excuse me for my comment on LRE singing carnatic style song.
Kasappu kadai kaari, kanchipuram pattu sElai kattikittu, aattu kedaa vettina kadhai pOla irukku.... LRE indha classical base song paadinadhu. Kunnakudi could have given a thought before engaging her for this song.
Meendum sorry ramki.

Thanks to everyone for providing more details


Premananth, You sure can.


Vel, enkitte edhukku apology kekkareenga?:)

Sorry for the delay in posting songs.
Can i give you a clue for the next song?:)

The film had a real life pair in the role of aNNi-maithunan. They ended up marrying different persons. The song was picturised on the hero and a punjab beauty(!!). The punjab kiLi and the other heroine are in kutti tv now.
The film had music by a malayalam MD.

Song?

Pick #340

http://tfmpage.com/stream/pow06/thodu_dd.rm

Song: thodu thodu vaa
Movie: Dharma devathai
Singers : SJanaki, KJYesudoss
Lyrics: vaali
MD: Ravindran

A lovely duet by one of the best MD's of India. The song has his favorite singers KJY and SJ, who has sung some very good songs in both tamil and malayalam under his direction.
If i remember right, Ravindran made his debut in 'Hemavin kadhalargaL'. A good film with Anuradha in the lead. The film flopped and the MD went unnoticed.
Thanks to actress Ambika, he resurfaced again in tamil with Rasigan oru rasigai. He did not do many films in Tamil but each of his album had atleast one good song.
'dharma devathai' was produced by AVM studios and had
Vijaykanth, Radika, Sarathbabu and Pallavi in the lead.
I believe this is the only film with Radhika in police role.
I'm not sure if this film did well . Haven't listend to any other song from this film.

Hi Ramki..

yes..Radhika in police roll.. and I think Aruvadai naaL ( debut film of Pallavi ) and this one got released at the same time.. !

Ramki, did you mean Vijaykanth and Radhika as the real life pair? I think they were not married, right? Only koodal pinbu oodal :-)

Radhika acted as aNNi for VK? HaiyahO :-(

Innoru haiyahO for Pallavi... invanga pOyi Punjab kiLiyaa? :lol:

I think Ravindran gave very challenging songs to Chitra also, who did enough justice to her Master.

Vel1970: Kasappu kadaiyila kAran thAna iruppanga... kAri undA? orE smell adikkudhu :-)

Good song..

Anal thedeernu 'Endhano Mahana Bhavallu' padiduvangalonu bayandhen. Ravindran did not disappoint me, he gave that as an instrumental piece..

Thanks Ramki.
Bala

another interesting song by Raveendran is ' Sri bhuaneswari aruL puri'. The interesting part is "beat"; it changes for every line, I believe :)

There was one more song in this film which used to aired on radio, in addition to this song,cant remember now.
It was an average movie which had a 50 day run.
There was one particular scene in which 'anni beats up 'maithunan'in a public place with a lathi which found positive mention in the vikatan/kumudam vimarsanam.
Thanks Ramki.

Mahesh, i too remember reading that review. But i think aNNi beats up her own husband(sarathbabu), a labor leader and throw him in jail.

Pick #341

http://tfmpage.com/stream/pow06/poovo_py.rm

Song: poovo ponno
Movie: pudhu yugam
Singers : SJanaki, KJYesudoss
Lyrics: Pulamaipithan
MD: Gangai Amaran

'sivakumarum vijaykanthum inaindhu nadikkum mudhal thamizh thiraipadam' was the tagline for this SAChandrasekhar film.
After the successful combo of Rajini and Bakyaraj in 'naan sigappu manithan', SAC tried his hand on 2 hero subject with PY.
But PY came and disappeared like a tiny rain drop on a hot sultry day. I think the song was picturised on sivakumar and Viji. I could be wrong but i think anuradha was VK's jodi
Unlike the film, todays song will remain in the memory of all song lovers for its melody, lyrics and powerful rendition by SJ and KJY.
(But why KJY pronounces deebam as deeppam ? :)

Nice songs Ramki sir.

SN23, ungga Oodal Koodal viLakkam, nalla joke.

********************
vel1970, if you said LRE voice like kasappukkaari for this song, what is your comment for M.R.Vijaya's voice for kAnum kalai ellaam kan kAtchi ?

note: kAnum kalai ellAm by PBS ans Sarala for Sivakumar & kumari bathimini(classic), and M.R.Vijaya and Ponnusamy for sakunthala ans nadarajan (modern).

i love the song 'buvaneswari arulpuri" from the movie thAyE nIyE thuNai. beautiful song by KJY and Cithra.

Ramki: VK had a small role in this movie, I think. VK & SK are good friends; VK goes to jail (I dont know why - may be for Anuradha's murder?). And SK will be out to find out the reason and get VK out of Jail. KalyanKumar & Srividhya played SK's b-i-l and sis and as Viji's Parents, I think.
