Song: bhuvaneswari aruLpuri aadhari
Film: Thaiye neeye thunai
Singers : KJY, Chitra
Lyrics: Vaalee
Music : Raveendran
-What a song. I watched the movie just for this song. I need not mention that i was totally disappointed ..it was picturised on Pandian and Srividya(soninlaw -mother inlaw). This film had 'ungaL abimaana nakshathirangaL' which included amman films mandatory artistes KRVijaya, NaLini etc. The only redeeming factor were the songs.
Valee has done an excellent job with lyrics(difficult sandhams)
Mrs charumathi writes:
"Bhuvaneswari aruL puri" is beautifully composed by Raveendran and soulfully rendered by KJY and KSC.
It is based on raaga, Revathi and set to 'Eka ThaaLam'. It has the following aaro and avrokanam and swarasthanam:
S R1 M1 P N1 S
S N1 P M1 R1 S
Revathi can be said janyam of Mela's 2, 8 and 14.
In the song, beat starts before the humming.
Normally KSC makes hardly any pronunciation mistake, however KJY and KSC made pronunciation mistakes in this song. May be it is a deliberate attempt. Example:
Bhuvaneshwary - Buvaneswary (actual)
Shankari - Sankari (actual)
Sharanam/charanam - saranam (actual).
This song can be only sung by well known singer because of the following reasons:
1) Pallavi has brighas in the following line: 'soolini maadhavan sridharan sOdhariyE'
2) Low and High stayi (pitch) used in the song. For example, in saraNam 1,
Low - High
paavamO - vinaiyin
thaapamO - unathu
kOpamO - viLaintha
saapamO - karunai
3) the song is composed in ascending order and this adds the classical beauty to the song. For example:
S - vazhiyum punalil undhan thiruvadi nanaiyatum
M - nanaintha piraku undhan thiruvuLLam kaniyattum
P - kanintha kanivil undhan kadaikaNkaL oLiratum
N - iruNdu kidakkum engaL pozhuthukaL pularatum
The Music director used fantastic rhythm through out the song. For example:
1. tha ki ta thaam - tha ki ta
bha va mo - vinaiyin
2. tha ki ta - tha ki ta - tha ka - tha ka di mi - tha ka ja nu
vazhiyum - puna lil - undhan - thi ru va di na nai yatum
The composition touches high "Pa" at the end of charaNam 1 & 2. Raveendran has used mirudhangam, Tabla and veena really well in the song, specially he used 'urumi' to express the emotional devotional (bhakthi paravasam) feeling.
It is a duet 'devotional' song which is not common in music.
