In this Margazhi Special episode of Oru Naal Podhuma, we explore the timeless classic "Chinnanjiru Vayadhil" from the 1981 film Meendum Kokila. Composed by Isaignani Ilaiyaraaja and penned by Kaviyarasar Kannadasan, this song is much more than a melody; it is a masterclass in realistic storytelling through music. In this episode, we dive into: The "Pen Paarkkum Padalam" Nostalgia: How this song perfectly captures the essence of a traditional South Indian arranged marriage meet. Abheri vs. Kaapi: A technical look at how Ilaiyaraaja uses the Abheri scale but subtly veers into Raga Kaapi with the N3 (Kakali Nishadam) note. Revolutionary Sound Design: How everyday household sounds—a grandmother cracking betel nuts, the clinking of stainless steel coffee glasses, and a grandfather chewing tobacco—were integrated into the song’s rhythm as part of the musical score. The Acting Masterclass: Analyzing Sridevi’s incredibly accurate Veena fingering and Kamal Haasan’s unique character mannerisms. The "Forgotten Lyric" Trope: How the script cleverly uses a character forgetting their lines to spark a romantic connection between the lead pair.

In this Margazhi Special episode of "Oru Naal Podhuma," we dive deep into one of the most intellectually stimulating songs in Tamil cinema – "Deviyar Iruvar Muruganukku" from the 1964 film Kalai Kovil. Is it a solo or a duet? While technically a female solo, the interplay between P. Suseela's voice and the Veena is nothing short of a duet. We explore why the Veena is the true "Hero" of this song and the fascinating story behind the legendary fingers that played it. In this video, we discuss: The Raga Shree: How to identify it and what makes it different from Madhyamavati. Actor vs. Instrument: Why Muthuraman’s performance is considered one of the best "Veena-playing" portrayals in cinema. Behind the Scenes: Why the great S. Balachander refused this project and how Vidwan Chitti Babu stepped in. Musical Genius: The collaboration of Viswanathan-Ramamoorthy, Kannadasan, and P. Suseela. Bonus: A hidden A.R.
