Noted in life, unnoticed in death

None can forget the nurse in ‘Thillanna Mohanambal,’ who, with incredible finesse, taught nagaswara vidwan, Sikkil Shanmughasundaram (played by Sivaji Ganesan) a poignant lesson on selfless service! ..............................
..................Very few websites have noted her death and even there you find one with a picture of the multi-faceted Banumathi Ramakrishna erroneously placed alongside the news item!

TMS, voice of Sivaji and MGR, no more

"A versatile singer, he modulated his voice to suit the two stars perfectly; a listener could identify the star in the film through TMS’s songs even without watching the movie!"

தேஞ்சி போன ரெக்கார்டு போல எத்தனை முறைதான் இதையே சொல்வது? அதைவிட்டு வெளியெ வாங்கப்பா! அவரோட குரலின் சாதனைகள் பல இருக்கிறது.

may his soul rest in peace.
