    It's quite interesting to see that MGR remade a 1957 / 1958 Shanta Ram movie (dO AnkEn bArA hAth) in 1975!

    Ah At last a thread for this legand been a Fan of his "Devotional songs (esp Murugan songs)" , a "brilliant" Carnatic vocalist, but on the negatives sides, not a versatile singer when it comes to Cinema Songs, and not a singer who can modulate voice or emote well (except sad songs) .

    Some of my Favourites

    1) Vizhiye kathai ezhuthu
    2) Chinnaum chiru vayathil
    3) Amma endralaikatha
    4) Thendral vanthu ennai thodum
    5) Poove poochudava

    more later ....

    Unless any KJY song exists for MGR prior to 1973 (not easy to find, mostly TMS in the post-AM Raja era, occasional SPB), thangaththONiyilE of USV was his first.

    However, because of the bullet-effect on MGR's voice, KJY was preferred to do a lot thereafter.

    The one Plum mentioned, pallANdu vAzhga (1975), had KJY monopoly for MGR with very sweet songs under KVM.

    Ofcourse, the best by KJY for MGR, IMO, came under MSV when Sridhar did a MGR movie.

    I really like All of his Sindhu bhairavi songs, except "thani thotti", that was an Experiment that went "horribly" wrong !

    Param,
    KJY never had problem with ழ.

    It was his Malayali way of pronouncing ள that created some issues. It was his slightly softer way of singing கிளி, which is acceptable in Kerala but not in TN, created irritation.

    It almost sounded like கிலியே கிலியே to our ears

    Interestingly, all three la's - ள ல ழ - are idaiyinam and variations are as many possible as the number of speakers / singers

    That said, therukkOvilE Odi vA was a real comedy

    Yes, I was refering to his song "Poovili vaasalil yaradi vanthathu kiliyE KiliyE instead of KizhiyE KizhiyE. BTW I am no expert in Tamil Literature, I did not study tamil at all, I can only read/speak in tamil, but I can't write in Tamil

    My mum told me that once MSV was "highly irritated" with KJY over this! It is strange that Malayalam is a Close relative to tamil than Telugu, yet KJY had this problem, while SPB's tamil pronounciation was perfect !
