Nila Kaigirathu Neram Theigirathu

This wonderfully melodious Hariharan song from the film Indira is one of my favorite song. Though the movie itself wasn't commercially successful, most of the songs in this movie were good; particularly this one was a topper. I guess AR Rehman liked his creation so much he made this song in both male and female versions and honestly both were very pleasing. One other song I just love from this movie is "Thoda Thoda Malarndhadhena Poove", maybe if I get a good karaoke track I can attempt it later.

I couldn't get a good karaoke track of this song; nevertheless, given the melody of this song which is very compelling, I just did with what I had. Hope you like it.

Enough said, enjoy the song.

Behati Hawa Sa Tha Woh

My next song is from the award winning Hindi movie liked by folks from across the Indian sub-continent "3 Idiots". This movie adapted from the novel Five Point Someone by Chetan Bhagat starred Aamir Khan, R. Madhavan, Sharman Joshi & Kareena Kapoor. Within short span of its release this movie broke all box-office records for collections which of course was later out performed by our Thalaivar Rajni's Enthiran.

With some outstanding songs and background musical score, the songs from this movie was at the top of the charts at its time. Its worth mentioning here that Swanand Kirkire lyricist for "Behti Hawa Sa Tha Wo" won a National Award for this song. A very pleasant melody originally sung by Shaan and music directed by Shantanu Moitra.

As always, I have tried to reproduce the onscreen magic with some of my own imagination and I hope you like it.

Netru Illada Matram Ennadu

This next song was a super hit from the film Pudhiya Mugam. Revathi was at her peak of acting career; and I should say, though this movie was a box office disaster, she pretty much carried the weight of this movie on her shoulders. While the awesome combo Vairamuthu & AR Rehman created this magical song, local radio stations never stopped playing this number for a long time. This song some what had a velvette & smooth feel. The music was crisp and sharp and the recording of this song had a fresh touch to it.

The songs from this movie were later reused in the Hindi movie Vishwavidhaata & the soundtrack was also released in Telugu as Padmavyuham. The film was directed by Suresh Menon (who also played the lead role), one time husband of Revathi.

While the original song was sung by Sujatha for Revathi on screen, I liked its lyrics therefore made a karaoke. I am sure you'll enjoy this song as well.
