Information's getting locked in pockets here. Grave injustice in this age of open/free source.

Ayiram pookkaL malarattum - not by IR, may be L-P or RDB (there were a few movies by these bigwig Hindi MDs - e.g. uyirE unakkAga was by L-P)

Aayiram pookkal malarattum = VS Narasimhan

Venu Nagavally, Asha Kelunni, Udhaya Chandrika - இந்த பெயரை எல்லாம் நான் இதுக்கு முன்னாடி கேட்டதேயில்லை. 80களின் மலையாள கிசு கிசு என்று தனியா திரி ஆரம்பிச்சு பேசுங்க!!

பாட்டு போடறேன் பாட்டு போடறேன் என்று சொல்லி கிட்டே இருக்கீங்க - பாட்டு எங்கேப்பா?? (தங்கமகன் பாட்டு போட்டி - லூஸ் மோகன் ஸ்டைலில் படிக்கவும் ) - At about 57s

App, which one was the bigger hit those days? In the 90s/00s the most played song in TV/AM/FM was Kodai kaala kaatre very closely followed by Aaanandha raagam. Poonthalir aada was extremely famous too but definitely behind the other two biggies.

Nerd,
IIRC, Anandha rAgam got max appreciation from every quarter. On the 'bigger hit' question, it's very difficult to tell...as each had its share of radio time, bus time, teakkadai time etc. Since compact cassettes were already getting commonplace, most people recorded all three together. ('vengAya sAmbAru' was disliked by most and it was also written about as a plagiarized number from some western song).

Personally, I listened to poonthaLirAda more times than others overall (i.e. 80's till now) but that doesn't make it a bigger hit.
