NOV, Jack & thyagu, those are the two film titles I got from my sources too. I think for now I will leave it blank.

Pick #535

Song: janaganin magaLai
Film: Rojavin Raja
Music: M.S.Viswanathan
Singer: P.Susheela
Lyrics: Kannadasan
Year: 1976

Great music by MSV. Beautiful lyrics by Kannadasan that tells a story with mythological analogies. Sweet voice of PS. Altogether a classic creation. I know it is a popular song. But I thought once in a while we can indulge in a popular song too.

The film starred Sivaji Ganesan and Vanisri. Probably another sentimental drama with some masala forced into it. One more really good song from the film is "alanggAram kalaiyAtha" a duet by TMS & PS.

Sivaji and AVM Rajan are close friends). As usual
Sivaji and AVM rendu perume ore pennai
kaadhalikkirargal(Vanisree).But vanisreeyo
Sivajiyai mattumae love pannugiraar. Panakkararaana AVM vanisreeyai penparkka
varugiraar(kooda sivajiyum undu).Appodhu varum
paadal dhan idhu. Lyrics are very apt for the situation. En manadhil nirkkum varigal

Vanisree explains the after effects of 'annalum nokkinaal avalum nokkinal'situation before the
seethai suyamvaram.

raaman oru puram
seethai maruppuram
aval nilamai thirippuram

mannavarellam suyamvaram kaana
mandrathil vandhu vittar
adhil mannavan oruvan villinai
edukka janaki kalangivittal

indha lineudan paadal nindruvidum. We will be left to wonder whether in this 'Ramayanam'
villedutha andha mannan villai odithana ?
Inda Seethai raamanai manamudithaala???
