Roshan,
Pachai nirame is an artistic brilliance, a rare breed for its genre to die for eh' to live and love for.. The idea of ascribing varnam's to love (kaadhalil (..3) niram undu) and the visual transformation is like chasing rainbows. Totally outstripping thoughts from the combo to have a male solo in this fashion . A very simple, gorgeously self-coloured tune and the lyrical beauty never fades out of my memory. Hariharan is equally appealing, vivid and an enhancing artist to limning these varnam's. Like Manjal.. Manjal... my fav part is the beauty of black tune/lyrically illustrated in a feministic positivism unlike red "iravin nirame... iravin nirame" see the modulation of the same words and "ooho.." filler is celestial.
