Directed
by’ Mettioli’ Thirumurugan. Produced by
Datho Rena. Duraisingam, K.Karunamurthi.
Starring Bharath, Poorna and Vadivelu. Thirumurugan’s
Em Magan was well received and this movie too is being
looked forward to by filmgoers. Especially with Vidyasagar
scoring the music. The story, set in a possible rural
milieu, deals again with the father-son relationship.
Five songs have been tuned for the movie. What has Vidyasagar
come up with this time? |

Kombu vitta kaalaiyenna
Vocals: Tippu, Lyrics:
Vairamuthu
A song for the college-going youth, obviously. Appears to
be based in Sriraga, with the note’ri pa ma ri ga
ri sa’ adding a lot of charm. Assertive and attractive
articulation by Tippu. Celebrates the fact that today’s
young men are aware of both technology and the demands of
rural life! God Muniyandi is being invoked too.

Pottakkuruviyo
Vocals: Haricharan and Mahati,
Lyrics: Vairamuthu
Lyrics are suggestive of youthful passions and have
been sung with polish by both the singers. Looks like
a western interpretation of Karaharapriya with’pa
saa sa saa ni’ swaras lending gaiety to the
song. The interludes are soft and flowing and the
refrain’Adai mazhai kaattukkulle’ tumbles
along like a brook to the lower octaves making an
interesting diversion.

Kodangi vandirukken
Vocals: Manikkam Vinayagam and Anuradha
Sriram, Lyrics: Vairamuthu
Kodangi means a soothsayer ( or an exorcist too) and
one expects Vadivelu to do the honours here. Manikkam
Vinayagam’s voice has a soothing charm of its
own with its depth. Anuradha Sriram has varied her
sruti slightly and is fun to listen to, as usual!
However, it is the western interludes before her singing
that are very well conceived, possibly in Mayamalavagowla.
Since this is a ‘pei ottum’ song, all
the right percussion instruments salangai, etc; have
been used heavily .Quite nice to listen to, although
it is an old ‘mettu’.
Kattippidikkum karadiyai
Vocals: Jayamurthi, Malathy Laxman,

Vairamuthu is in his element here. The song touches
