Pick #716

Song: isai pAdum paRavai
Film: Sumangali
Music: M.S.Viswanathan
Singer: Vani Jairam
Lyrics: Vaali
Year: 1983

"Sumangali" starred Sivaji Ganesan, Geeta, Sujata, Pushpalata, Prabhu, the absolutely hilarious Y.G.Mahendra and others. The story was borrowed from Hindi. Same old story that has been recycled thousands of times all across India in films of all languages. Don't know why they had to go to Mumbai to buy this tired old story, which I wouldn't bother to narrate. The beautiful and energetic Geeta and today's pick are the only good things in the film.

Today's pick was picturized on Geeta who plays a stage singer and dancer.

I thought it might be Ravi. The only film he scored, yes? (S-Gvidamirindhu Drums set kadan )

Neel D -

Had forgotten this solo...thanks for bringing it back here!

Have you heard this SJ solo:
En Kanngal Endrum Un Meedhu...Un Kanngal Nooru Penn Meedhu, from Thirippura Sundari?
Very operatic!
Woke up this morning with this song in my head:
Poovae Unnai Naesiththaen, Pookkal Kondu Poojiththaen... SPB (with SJ)? Don't recall the film
