    Thank you Murali sir, for details on NPP

    So, that part is very similar between NPP & sAjan as well. (In sAjan, Sanjay Dutt is a poet whose writings make M Dixit fall in love with the unseen poet, Mr.sAgar. Because of the hero's disability, he doesn't want to reveal himself to her but befriends her telling that the poet is "known" to him and will introduce him someday...)

    Like you mentioned, R S has a few more movies to his credit, with some melodious numbers. Surprisingly, such a big "musical" director, doesn't seem to have much admirers on the web...even his wiki page is hopeless...

    Jai,
    Are you sure ninaivE oru sangeetham is RS? This page has a picture that credits K Rengaraj as director

    If you had been to Trichy recently, can you please post about the current details of "highways" around the city...I was sending off the f-i-l of a distant relative yesterday (took off from Metro airport)...he used to live in Mannarpuram and said the Tanjore road tollgate etc are all bye-passed by huge flyovers now...

    App, fantastic, fantastic, fantastic!! Don't know what else to say. To have attracted Murali-sir himself, those posts got to be awesome. Murali-sir, your contribution is like dessert to the main course by app (in addition to excellent side dish V_S, and not to be missed tottukka Jai).

    nanRi, groucho!

    I was when reading your pudhukkavidhai review.

    Especially the Vijayakanth diary part.

    Felt like reading one of those early-day Ganesh-Vasanth conversations which are among the best I've ever read

    kiru,

    mikka nanRinga!

    I was there in 2010 Jan. The highway was still under construction. Was about 75% done I would say. The idea is to connect, the madurai, thanjai, pudhukkottai highways. The bridge starts from the Madurai membaalam (buses that go towards edamalaipattipudhur/viraalimalai), paal pannai (Thanjai/REC route). Our house is about 1.5 Kms away from TVS tollgate near the Anna stadium. My parents still live there.

    On the mukkombu thingi, didnt want to spoil your experiences and the imagery etched in your mind but could not resist. It was actually quite decent when I used to go there often in the mid-late 90s. But when I went there in late 2005 (one of my bestest friends lives in Pettavaaithalai) I can not believe what a mess that place was. Enga paaththaalum kuppai, pazhaiya iththuppOna slides for the kids, naduvila periya saakkadai, paththaadhadhukku kaadhalargaL imsai vera. And that still remains as the *only* suttrulaa/pozhuthupokku sthalam for Trichyites. The new mayorammaa (yaaraaga irundhaalum) has promised that it will change

    But the iyarkal maruthanila azhagu is still there if you make an attempt and take one of those equisite ottraiyadi paadhais a good 5-10 Kms away from Mukkombu. The 5 KM radius surronding Mukkombu has already been urbanized (Trichy rangekku). And yes the railway gate you talked about, still there and you certainly can hear the same old 'paLam/vaaLappalam/rasthaali/poovampalam/malaippalam' even today.

    Looks like it's curtains for 1984. The movie 'veLLaippuRA onRu' that had a sweet MV-SJ number 'iLam kAdhal veeNai' did have a SPB-SJ duet 'thinasari kalaraippArkka' which cannot be called a hit and so cannot make it to this listing.

    Same with the northie sounding anbirukkum uLLangaLE from vAzhkkai where 'kAlam mARumA' got posted about. Ofcourse 'mella mella' from this movie is well-known to any who admires IR music (PS with Raj Seetharaman).

    Interestingly, this was the year when a Motherland Pictures film seems to have a movie without SPB song (unnai nAn sandhiththEn, with K Rangaraj as director - the 'hEy I love you', 'thAlAttu mARippOnadhE', 'dEvan thandha veeNai', 'unnaikkANum' movie). Did this movie from that production house gave mike to Mohan without giving mike to SPB?

    Wait a minute...thiraippadal may not have that SPB song, but I remember listening to SPB sing for mike Mohan that 'dEvan thanda veeNai' :confusion:

    AhA, rAkkammA says there's this SPB number (Prof.Sivakumar suspects his wife Sujatha who sings on stage with Mohan, hides under the kattil to 'kaiyum kaLavumA' catch her)

    Well, there is still one more hit song for SPB this year, from unnai nAn sandhiththEn...let me google to find a link and post tomorrow...
