Seithikal Pala Kodi - Athellaam unmai alla
(Offshoot from the following post by Manisekaran in another thread.)
The cinema field is so vast and wide that none of us have all that comprehensive information on the minute details. There are far too many gaps in the cine field, yet to be ironed out. Sometimes even published sources may not be revealing the exact truth. I have quoted before and may want to refresh again. Just look at these published sources:
1. Irukkum Idathai Vittu Illatha Idam Thedi- there is an argument as to who had written this song. Some say it was by Kannadasan, while others say it was by Ka Mu Sherriff. It was the well informed writer Jayakanthan who raised this issue in his book Oru Ilakkiyavaathiyin kalaithurai Anubavangal. In fact both of them have written this song in different forms- Kannadasan in Thiruvarutchelvar and Ka Mu Sheriff in Panam Panthilyie.
2. For a very long time there was a confusion as to who wrote the song Ethanai Kaalamthan Ematruvar intha Naattile-Some argued that it was by Tanjai Ramiah Dass, while others said it was by Namakkal Kavingar. The credit in the film talks of both of them ahving writen songs for the film. Then comes Muthulingam who said that he was the one who wrote it. What was the age of Muthulingam when the film Malaikkallan was produced and what was his profession- asked KUMDAM weekly. Finally it dawned that the song was written by Tanjai Ramaiah Dass.
3. Vizhiye Kathai Ezhuthu- Urimaikkural- Record says Vaali, but actually by Kannadasan.
4. Kan mai Enthum Vizhi Aada- Poojaikku vantha Malar- Record says it was by Vaali, but was written by Kannadasan for Pachai Vilakku. Could not be used there, and MSV used it here.
5. Mayakkum Maalai Pozhuthe Nee Po Po- record says MSV/TKR but was composed by KVM for Koondukkili.
6. Putham Puthu Meni-Balamurali and P. Suseela- Subathinam- record says by KVM, but originally composed by TG Lingappa
7. Kunguma Poove- Maragatham- record says by SM Subbiah Naidu, but composed by TG Lingappa.
8. Vaana Meethil Neenthi Odum Vennilaave and Kongu naattu Chengarumbe Thangachilaye- the version of Sergazhi Govindarajan was composed by G Ramanathan, but GRamanathan was not to be involved when Trichy Loganathan sang and recorded the same songs at Gemini Studios.
9. There are three lyricists for the song Sirippu- Raajaraani, but only the name of Maruthakazi appears.
10. There are two lyricists for the song Kan Vazhi Pugunthu in Thookku Thookki, but only the name of Udumalaiyaar appears.

Nerungi Nerungi Pazhagum Pothu Nenjam Onraagum is in Netru Inru Naalai with MSV as the MD. But this song was composed by KVM for another movie and used here.

'mettu onnu paattu thedi' (kaathal mannan) was composed by MSV (also sung & acted). His name doesn't appear in the credits (as MD).

Hi!
"ethanai kalamthan ematruvar" is really written by two people.. I think. The pallavi and anupallavi were written by namakkal kavignar and the two charanams by thanjai ramaiah das.
just by hearing the song .. u can feel the difference in the lyrics..
the anupallavi is joining with the pallavi again like..."pamara makkaLai valaiyinil mAtti.. ethanai kAlamthAn"... but the other two charanams are totally different.. like "theruvengum paLLigaL kattuvom" and "ALukkoru veedu kattuvom" :P

Though unrelated to TFM, the link shows how much erratic the news agencies can be at times (please check the percentages...)
