How singers were chosen for the songs

MV did a fine job for Sivaji in mudhal mariyAdhai

It was probably IR's choice...

App....

Probably as TMS was ageing... Malaysia was the only guy whose voice modulation was coming to terms with Shivaji's tone... and he became an automatic choice....

What Balaji told is correct....

After TMS, the fair coincident voice for Sivaji is Malaysia Vasudeavn only. (We can see, even SPB and KJY sung for Sivaji, they are not matching).

Apart from Muthal Mariyaathai songs, another song by MV is very much suit for Sivaji.

That is:

"Sandhana nilavoli.. thandhanam enumbadi
aadadi poomagaley....."

by IR in the movie 'Lakshmi Vandhaachu', for which Jayachitra and Revathi were dancing in a lawn.

I have also heard C.S.Jayaraman..... for Shivaji.... Anbaalay pesiya en arivu selvam..............
and Ka ka ka....

Strange... It was a total mismatch in my opinion....

May be those were the early years of Shivaji and nobody bothered about the voice matching...

Also, I have seen Seerkayi Govindarajan… for Muthuraman…. Its again a mismatch… probably… PBS was a good match for Muthu….
especially for :

1. Raja raja sree rajan vandhaan
2. Mounamay paarvaiyal oru paatu paadavendum
3. Poga poga theriyum

Later, SPB suited Muthu ....

For MGR… after TMS… probably KJY came close to matching….

Dear Balaji...

Before TMS joined with Shivaji, there were toomuch mismatching singers for Shivaji, like

CSJayaraman (you mentioned some songs) and also

"Vinnodum mugilodum"
"Kaaviyamaa...nenjin Oviyama"
"Vanna thamizh pennoruththi"
"Aayiram kan podhaathu vannakiliye"
"Aarambam aavathu pennukkulle"... and so on

also AMRaja:

"Then unnum vandu" (amara deepam)
"Idai kai irandil aadum" (vidi velli)
"Koduthu paar..paar..paar..(same)
"Ullangal ondraagi thullum podhiley" (punar janmam).. and many

and Trichy Loganathan in Kattabomman, Kappalotiya Thamizhan..etc

After TMS joined only, we have the suitable voice with perfect matching for Shivaji.

Lets analyse… Netru Indru Naalai….

How did .. MGR chose… SPB for two lovely songs… Paadumbodhu naal thendral kaatru and for
Angay varuvadhu yaaro….

Eventhough he chose TMS For….. Neen ennenna sonaaalum kavidhai…

And for….. Innoru vaanam… and also for

Naan padithen kaanjiyilay netru…. ( probably for this song. He had no choice but TMS ? )

Can somebody comeup with the facts on this pls..

By the way… this movie is one of the evergreen hits of MSV….. along with Kudiyirundha koil…..

Yes Balaji,

As you menrtioned "Kaanjiyile naan padithen" song was purely of TMS type song, and if somebody (SPB or KJY) handle it, definitely it might not touch our hearts.

For example, one TMS formula song was given to KJY, and was horrible to digest. Do you know which one..?

Yes it is "Naalai ulagai aala vendum uzhaikkum karangaley" from Uzhaikkum karangal.

In 'Maduraiayai meeta sundhara pandiyan'
"Veera magal poraada" and "Thaayagathin sudhandhirame engal selvam" was by TMS.
"Thendralil aadum koondhalil kanden" by Yesudoss, and
"Amudha thamizhil" by Jayachandran.

In Neethikku thalai vanangu, "Kanavugale...aayiram kanavugale" and "Paarka paarka sirippu varudhu" by TMS and "Indha pachai kilikoru" by KJY.

In Shivaji movies also this 'kularupadi' started from Sumadhi en sundhari (in fact SPB's 'Pottu vaitha mugamo' is a good one), it continued in Raja (Irandil ondru..nee ennidam sollu), then it continued in most of the films. KJY started from Dr.Siva "Malarey...kurinji malarey" a master piece for all (MSV, Vaali, KJY, SJ).

Hello Saradhaji,

MGR used the song.. Naan padithen Kaanjiyilay.... for his election campaign in 1977 and won with handsome margin.......

Patti thottee ellaam ketta padal.....

Also the song....Neenga nallaaa irukkanum from Idhaya kanee..

when he was in Brooklyn Hospital... battling for life.........

The mismatch got carried to Shivaji also.. Yes you are correct.....

Pottu vaitha mugamo is one of SPB's all time hits but for Shivaji !!

In kavari maan also..... Poo polay un punnagayil......

When the song got released... I though SPB sang for Rajini !!

**S.Balaji** · 27th August 2005, 04:24 PM

Saradha avargalay,

I have a small doubt ,

TMS probably got missed out on matching for MGR for ....

KANAVUGALAY AAYIRAM KANAVUGALAY ????

does it not sound like he sang for Shivaji ??

Do you also recollect any other song of TMS which was not exactly matching for the hero ??
