The Golden Era of Dr.IR and Dr.SPB

Avadi, no wonder. After neRRikaNN, he religiously applied the Golden rule - sons are trouble. In real life and reel life

App anna

Come on Eagerly waiting for your views on "Radha Radha nee engE" :)

Jai, lovely imagery; poetic and profound writing. :clap:

#63 ராதா ராதா நீ எங்கே?
கண்ணன் எங்கே நான் அங்கே!
(மீண்டும் கோகிலா, 1981 , ஜானகியுடன்)

When Sujatha wrote about some details of filming Vikram, he mentioned Kamal's irritation in not getting what he wanted. "நொறுக்கறதுக்கு மாருதி கேட்டா டால்ஃபின் தான் கொடுக்குறாங்க" (Some may remember that Dolphin 2 door car that was considered "poor-man's-maruthi" in 80's).

That statement kind of summarizes Kamal's history in TF :-( A similar case in the 80's take of (i.e. portions of) silappathikAram too. Kamal wanted (which was in news continuously) Gemini's daughter - the one gossipped to have got wedded in Tirupati to AB, north indies confirm whether it happened. Instead all that the producers could get (to do the mAdhavi role) was Unni Mary. I've not seen the movie and so don't know the story, just hearsay and also the title suggests "meeNdum" kaNNaki.

Don't know which girl was featured in this sweet number on screen - was it chEra nAttuppeN or kuzhandhai natchaththiram?

What starts with a sweet vocal harmony between SPB-SJ, my top pair, gets instrumental ornamentation of high class levels. Not a "running" melody but a stop-and-walk-kind IMO. Enjoyed the arrangements of this song more those days but now can appreciate the beauty in the melody. Actually even made fun of the pallavi (i.e. internally to myself) as 'what is this prose order thingy' but thEththified telling 'saraNam is great' :oops: Untrained ears :-)

This movie was continuously in gossip columns - Sridevi couldn't do madisAr and the costume guy made 'madisAr pant' which she simply mAttified like a pant etc. BO was average I think but songs were big hits and regulars on radio :-)

I would say KJY outdid SPB in this movie with his "chinnanchiru vayadhil". The playful touches of Raaja and kamal shall make the movie to be remembered forever more than this stunner of a song..

ab - அவர் தாத்தா ஆகப்போறோம் என்கிற சந்தோஷத்தில் இருக்கிறார் நீங்க என்னடான்ன பழைய காதலியை பற்றி பேசிக் கொண்டு இருக்கிறீர்கள்.

பொதுவா கண்ணகி என்ற பெயர் ராசி இல்லாததால் கண்ணகி கோகிலாவாக மாறினார?

Jai,
Amazing imagination and wonderful perspective on Poo Vanathil song. You have given a whole new dimension to the song. You have to write frequently, why are you not?:(

புல்லரிப்பு! மும்பை மாநகர 28 வது மாடியில் கடலும், மழை மேகமும், ராஜ இசையும்! வேலை செய்யலாம் என்ற அத்தனை எண்ணங்களையும் நிர்மூலமாக்கி, நினைவலைகளின் மெல்லிய தாலாட்டிலே, மீண்டும் பள்ளி நாட்களுக்கு பின்னோக்கி சென்று எந்நாளும் மறவா கானமழையில் நனைந்து கடந்த 4 மணி நேரங்களை ஒரு வித பரவசத்துடன் அணு அணுவாய் அனுபவித்து வருகிறேன். A E உங்களுக்கு கோடி வந்தனம்! மற்றும் சுரேஷ்(65), plum , groucho , VS , ஜெய், ஏனைய பல நண்பர்களின் சிறப்பான பங்களிப்புடன் இந்த திரி ஒரு மகா சுகானுபவம். இத்தனை சந்தோஷங்களை நமக்களித்த ராஜாவுக்கும் பாலுவுக்கும், அதை இங்ஙனம் ரசித்து, பகிர்ந்து, கொண்டாடி மகிழ்ந்து திளைக்கும் நம்மனைவருக்கும் சேர்த்து உங்கள் சார்பாக சில பல single malt திரவங்களை காணிக்கையாக்குகிறேன்!

இன்னைக்கு வேலை காலி!
