[Sudarshan C R]

Hello Rajesh,

One more golden song picked up by you from the treasure.
Ratnagiri rahasya(Padmini pictures-B R Panthulu), an age-old folk story made as film during those days of 1957. The hand-some, tall man like a tarzan was Shri Udaya kumar (Michelle, you guessed right!) with jamuna. The film has 9 songs, which are beautifully tuned by T G Lingappa, lyrics by kanagal prabhakara sastry.

List of songs:

1. AnaMda mahadAdanaMda (jikki, rajalakshmi, Rani)
2. anurAgada amarAvati (Leela P,Soundara rajan T M)
3. amarA madhurA prEma (Susheela P)
