Yeithoa Ninaivugal - Memories of Another Day

[Oldposts]

Ramki and Udhaya: I think I can bolster Udhaya's claim that SP Muthuraman is the director of Kaatrinile varum geedham.
Proof: I was listening to S.Ve.Shekar's "Kaadhula Poo" drama cassette. In one situation Lord Yama is finding a replacement for Shekhar who has been wrongly brought to Naragam. Then Yama says that "Isnt it true that there are 7 looalikes for every body in the human world and didnt somebody make a film about it" for which Chithraguptan answers "Ammaam Prabhu, SP Muthuraman eduthadhu "Kaatrinile Varum Geedham" ". I'avent seen the movie but Iam an ardent fan of S.Ve.Shekhar's dramas and know most of his drama dialogues by heart. So I think Udhaya is right if not then S.Ve.Shekar is.

Correction: "Udhaya is right if not S.Ve.Shekar is wrong" and not what was posted earlier. Sorry guys

Dear NOV,

Thanks a lot for taking back us to those golden days our life. And thanks again for giving the one full line of the song ).

BTW, Re, muLLum malarum,
This movie was Mahendran's effort and brought together Rajani Kanth and Shoba as Mullum Malarum - brother & sister. .

In one of the interviews, director explained that, he actually meant, mottukkaL thaan malarum enbathillai, muLLum kooda malarum

-vElai-vetti illaatha raajaa

NOV: I agree with your rating of Chittukuruvi Vs AnnakkiLi. Talking about Giramaththu Adhiyayam reminds of Director Rudraiya's first movie, (GA was his 2nd one)AVAL APPADITHTHAN. I haven't seen the movie but songs (3 of them) are great.

1. UravugaL thodarkadhai - KJY. Excellent piano throughout the song.
2. Panneer pushpangalae - Kamal. Kannadasan's (I suppose) lyrics are out of the world. (panjali vazhndha paridhaba vazhvai paaratta yarumillai...)
3. Vazhkkai odam sella - SJ. Again excellent lyrics such as
Oorengum medai, RajakkaL vesham, uNmayil rajakkaL illai - ulagaththil peNmai uyarvagavillai, udhavadha puzhpangaL peNgaL..

I don't have these songs in my collection but they are etched in my memory.

Ramki: I'm positive about SPM. Those were my time. Don't mess with me (just kidding).

Ramki:

Just went up this thread, your list brought out a few ones long forgotten. As far as I remember, SPM was the Director of KVG.

[Oldposts]

Rajaraman - Thanks for the info. Kashmir Kaathali sounds like GKV too! )

Udhaya - Mine is a cassette. And it is a three-in-one. I doubt if you can get that now. (

Ramki - Yes you're right .... about Sasirekha. About KVG, I have to go with the rest of them. I don't think it is a Sridhar movie......
BTW, yesterday I watched an old Sivaji movie directed by SPM with music by IR, Vetrikku Oruvan. Both the movie and the music suck. (
So much for this combo. Needless to say, the only male singer was TMS!

raaja_vetti - Very interesting observation. But it still beats me .... Mul eppadi malarum? )

Ravy - There you go again. Panneer pushpangalae has started to haunt me again. )

How about En Magan:
Neengal Athanai perum uthamarthana sollungal -TMS

[Oldposts]

Ramki:

How do you come up with this amazing list?
I think Uththaman song is Padagu, padagu not pazhagu....
pErum pugazhum has another good song - Avalae en kadhali - SPB & VJ(?).

Here is some more memorable songs from various movies.

1. Paalibeshegam seyyavo, unakku thEnabishegam seyyavo - Muththana Muththallavo - SPB & VJ(?) - MSV *ing Jai Ganesh & Sujatha

2. Enna thavam seidhEn unnai maNam koLLa - TMS, PS Movie ??
3.AvaL oru pachchai kuzhandhai paadum paravai paruvam 16 - Nee oru magarani - SPB & PS - MD Sankar Ganesh
4. Mohana punnagai oorvalamae - Uravu Solla oruvan - KJY - MD VijayaBaskar - *ing Muthuraman, SUjatha - A tearjerker but received good reviews. (this is a good varNanai song - nadaiyinil annal kandEn, idiyinil minnal kandEn, thzhuvadha angam thottu uravada vaa ..)

NOV: All songs of Panner PuzhpangaL are good except Vengaya Sambarum ...

How about Pagalili Ore iravu? I haven't seen this movie but there was no leading magazine in TN that didn't carry Sridevi's falls scene still !!

1. ILamai yenum poongatru - SPB - This one needs no intro. The intro. music just lulls you into another world (heaven?)
2. Kalaiyo illai silayo - JC
3. Ponnaram poovaram - SPB. A good, decent song and the zest in SPB's voice is worth mentioning
4. Tham tha theem - SJ and Chorus

A digressive note:

Vikatan film reviews used to carry marks for individual categories besides overall mark. The highest mark for a movie so far is 62.5 for 16 vayadhinilae - kamal got 90 for his performance.
unforunately I don't remeber how much IR got for this movie.
