It has been two years (July 2nd) since composer/singer M.G. Radhakrishnan passed away.
Here is one of his creations (mrudulE...) from the movie "njaan EkanaaNu"; sung by K.J. Yesudas;
lyrics by Sathyan Anthikkaad.

Wonderful song. Liked it a lot when the film released in 2007. This song and Kattadi thanalum were one of my favourites from the movie.

Here is a rare semi-classical duet from P. Bhaskaran's 1974 comedy film அறக் கள்ளன் முக்கால் கள்ளன்
("arak kaLLan mukkaal kaLLan"). K.J. Yesudas and P. Jayachandran sing this satirical raagamaalika that mocks
the ruler of the day! The lyrics would very well apply to the present bunch of our "democratically" elected leaders too!

The song was composed by V. Dakshinamoorthy (Swami). As I have stated on earlier occasions, Swami thrived on composing
raagamaalikas. The raagas in this song are (I think) kamboji, shanmugapriya, hindOLam and simhendramadhyamam.
[RR: Please feel free to correct the list as appropriate!

The first link is to a youtube version of audio recording of the song. The second link has the original video recording,
but the quality of the video is poor!

Where's the Malayalam film thread? Thought of posting this (great voice over job by Lalettan, who did all the voices, plus as narrator):

Reminds me of the 80s and 90s Malayalam movies which will just get pasted on your hearts. BTW, this guy Bejoy Nambiar who had made this short film is the person who seems to be doing the Hindi Film of David starring Vikram and Jiiva.

Interesting to see a superstar participating in small projects like the ones above (I suppose Mamooty too, Murali-sir?). If only our superstars do the same.
