Kalyana Thenilaa - Kumar Sr... Lyrics & Chords

This is a cover of this evergreen hit by Ilayaraja from the movie Mounam Sammadham originally sung by KJY and Chitra. Thanks to Adithi Devarajan for suggesting this song and also singing it with me.
Thanks for your earlier comments and feedback. I have attempted to fix the issues some of you pointed out – thanks for the same. Hope this is better.

Kumar….I dont honestly remember how you sang the earlier version…

But this is AWESOME…. Just too good…Both of you rocked…Kumar you were just sounding like KJY himself with same style of singing and voice quality….Adithi you were also superb. great modulations and harkatein(Sangatis)

All the best…keep posting such masterpieces…

Thanks NVK for your appreciation and encouragement. The earlier version had an issue with sur in one location. Kumaran and Anne pointed it out. Wanted to get that fixed. I ended up singing the whole song again anyhow. Adithi’s vocals are the same as before.

Adithi: You have an unshakable adherence to shruthi which makes this song a pleasant hear.

Kumar: I would say 90% of your rendition is fine except a few shakes (e.g. paarppOme aavala). Good one by you two.

Thanks for the feedback Murali,

Will work on that 10% :-).

Kumar & Adithi, I felt both of you were very slippery in your ending notes (finishing them very fast), but a great attempt. But your sruthi was perfect throughout….looking forward to more duets. God Bless.

Cheers….Gops

Thanks for your feedback Gops. Will watch out for those trailing notes. This track is faster than the original too I believe.

Adithi and Kumar, Brilliant work! A beautiful melody of Ilayaraja sung with all its grace. I have to comment on your voice quality which was superb. Kumar sounded almost like KJY in most places!
There are minor pointers which can be discounted.
A 5/5 to both of you and my fav.
Keep singing!

Wonder, how I missed this ??:((

Awesome pick, wish the track were a little better though!

Kumar, very nice soothing feel you have brought out… barring a few off/wrong notes ( aavalaa , nilaa- mela pogumbodhu specifically)

Adithi, nice one, your sangathis are a treat to listen to, absolutely effortless!

5/5 for sure

Ahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ! Lovely singing !

Very tough song ! every word is associated with a sangathi and wat beautiful singing ! Lovely singing Akka & Kumar !

very minor tempo issues, understandable due the complexity of the song. Kumar, vibratos pottu konjam slow panni padeerthinga na engayo poirukkum. (Very easily said ! )
Cheers,

Just superb !!!! Akka , you have flown with the song upto 101%…….Such a wonderful song , to here from such a beautiful combination , it’s really like a “Vizha”……Kumar , you are just like KJY at some places…….At few places , pitching problems were there with lack of sruthi….Otherwise , a fantastic effort by you with Adhithi akka……

Magical song!! Salikadha pattu. Loved your take Kumar anna and Adithi akka. This is a fantastic cover. Adithi’s parts were fantabulous. Precision of ur sangathis is your biggest plus and this was one of ur best. Kumar Anna. Your portions were fantastic too. Except for a couple of places which sounded a little uncertain. But i felt this is by far the best cover of this song i have heard ever.
