Shamshad Begum in Hindi and Tamil from Dusedoff tribute http://dustedoff.wordpress.com/2013/...gum-a-tribute/
Apparently, the Tamil version was drpped from the film in favour of the one by Rajalakshmi. First the Hindi version

Tamil version by Shamshad Begum

Rajalakshmi version

Perhaps Rajraj and others can tell us the problems with her pronunciation.

Here is a song from Sitamgar, Hindi dubbed version of Uthamaputhiran :

A lilting song from Patanga:

O Dilwalon Dil Ka Lagaanaa....

A Tamil song in the same tune from Digambara Saamiyaar(1950):

oosi pattaase vedikkaiyaa thee vachchaale vedi dabaar dabaar....

oosi pattaase.. was one of my favourite songs during my middle/high school years (early 50s). The song is about fireworks for children during DeepaavaLi !

Rajraj,
The Tamil version is new to me and is a very nice adaptation.

In a short span we lost four stalwarts in music - Shamshad Begum, P.B.Srinivas, T.K.Ramamurti and Laalgudi Jayaraman. But, we will always remember them, thanks to modern technologies.

Here is a song about memories from Dil Ek Mandir, Hindi remake of Nenjil Or Alayam(Tamil):

Yaad na Jaaye....

A song from the original with similar sentiment:

Nenjam Marappadhillai....

M.S.Viswanathan and T.K.Ramamurti were the music directors for the movie.

Lalgudi Jayaraman composed several thillaanaas. Here is one in Desh:

He composed thillaanaas in Hindolam,Bageshri,Yamuna Kalyani and other ragas. I have a 33 RPM record of those thillaanaas somewhere. If I find it I will attempt to post them!
