Naan Kattil Maele- with Sriram Srinivasan
Naan Kattil Maele- with Sri... Lyrics & Chords
Place: Taramani Film City
Year: 1999 December
Event: Shooting for Raj TV’s Pongal episode of Tamil film music quiz
I was one of the participants and was doing reasonably well when breaktime was announced. Shrikala Bharath, the producer of the show, casually requested a song from the compere and asked me to sing with him. No rehearsals, we didn’t even check if we knew lyrics etc and we started singing “Sippi Irukkuthu”. There was pindrop silence in the auditorium till we finished when they burst out into a thundering applause! Such spellbinding performance by this brilliant singer/ MC! Later, I got introduced to him and his beautiful wife. The time that we spoke was short yet enough to know that this man had some high taste in music!
It was after nearly 10 years that I recollected all of the above when I met Sriram Srinivasan in Muziboo :) It is a small world indeed!
Sriram suggested this beautiful song from the 80s and I happily agreed. The opening tune reminds me of a Hindi song(which one-still slips my mind!). Although it is not our first duet together, it is the first in my space!
Please do let us have your valuable comments and suggestions. And thanks for listening! :)
Movie: Neeyaa

Adithi madam, I am not sure how this was recorded but you are louder than Sriram sir in this duet that is the only blemish in your effort. I will sure download it to itunes and listen to it in my Nano and will sure give you a feedback if it was my speakers.
Sriram sir you fit like a glove to this song. This sure is your forte. You rule!
At any rate you both should feel very proud of this song and I liked it.

Good performance by both … Esp Sriram you bring the bhavam quite easily.

Hey Sriram, man you have not changed yaar…. your picks are always unique…. good one….
Maruthi said
nila kayuthu ….neram nalla neram is somthing similar to this one……to my listening ( sagala kala vallavan ) but those innovative parts (kaalamellam kanna naan kaathirundhaen….and yengae un thaen kinnam parts are discribing much about the composers capabilities……wwwahh what a composition this is……(honestly i cant believe this from shankar ganesh ) like I couldnt beleive neela vaana odayil from gangai amaran……
Adithi there is a bit of nadukkam in your voice 2:09 otherwise its very nice Adithi. Sriram is nice too but a bit of manliness missing on your vocals ….konjam kuzhaivu adigamayiduchu….otherwise very beutiful detail rendition .

Adithi ka/ Sriram, The write-up was interesting :D
Sriram, I am a big fan your song-picks ! As akka pointed out about your taste of music and i completely concur, you ve been posting some really good ones with all the intricate portions intact in it and a lot of times it is a rare song. I ve never known a lot songs you posted but when i hear to that i used to like the song the first time i hear to that. so i never used to miss your postings. I may not comment on them, as i ve been guilty of not knowing the song :D Never heard this one before and been hearing this for sometime now till the tune sinked. SPB touch obviously miss pannave mudiyathu and Sooper enjoyed this. Keep posting Sri anna.
Akka, Loved it as always. Especially those giggling variations (Kaathirunthen). Konjam strong throw inrunthu some places (Enge en then kinnam … ), apdi than varuma ? neenga kandippa oru situational explanation vechuruppenga nu nenaikaren. But seamless as always. Love this passion of yours ! keep doing songs almost every 3 days ! Tired agama, priortize panama full involvement in all the songs you do. Commendable !
Cheers,
Balaji S
