Shruthi Neevu Gathi Neevu (Telugu) - Cover by Latha Ganti & Sarada

Shruthi Neevu Gathi Neevu (... Lyrics & Chords

The period since the mid 70s, Telugu film music rose to new heights when legends like film director K.Vishwanath and music director K.V.Mahadevan worked together. This dream team created a rich musical treasure in Telugu that stood the test of time. In many ways, the film Shankarabharanam marked the new renaissance in Telugu film music and became the new barometer to measure good music. K.Vishwanath is well known for turning into gold whatever he touches. He brings out the best talents in artists by his relentless hard work and grace. He has keen sense for music and demonstrated that through all his films. K.V.Mahadevan a musical Mahatma himself, in collaboration with K.Vishwanath is bound to create magic. This song from the film, Swatikiranam, is a product of one such collaborations where Vani Jayaram and K.S.Chitra vocalized splendidly. The song also has extremely wonderful lyrics penned by Dr.C.Narayana Reddy, another legendary figure in his own right in Telugu literature.

I am extremely honored to join Latha to sing this song. Latha has an unmistakably sweet voice and her musical talents are now well known to this forum. Working on this project, I have also learnt how knowledgeable, humble and graceful Latha is. She has keen focus to get things done and was instrumental in getting this song mixed so quickly and wonderfully. She has laser sharp ears which she uses intensely to listen and spot issues. She did a magical job in singing Vani Jayaram’s lines sounding truly like a 12 year old in this. Thank you Latha :)

Some background on picturization:
In the movie, there is a 12 year old boy (master Manjunath) that goes and lives with a great music pandit (Mammutty) to serve him and his wife (Radhika) and to learn music in the process. The boy is a gifted child prodigy and here in this song, he composes a song and coaches his guru’s wife who is also musically knowledgeable. The guru’s wife( playback by K.S.Chitra) is completely mesmerized with the boy’s (playback by Vani Jayaram) talent. The song is sung praising the Godess of Sangeetam and Sahityam (music and literature), Saraswathi.

Please take a listen and enjoy. Also thanks so much for listening.

What a Song & what a performance , Hats off
to Sarada & Lata for reproducing as close to
as possible the voice of Vani Jayaram
& Chithra . I am sure if you two had sung
under the Baton of Sri Mahadevan You would
have made waves in the Telugu Film song arena .The beauty lies in your wonderful practice
& bringing out excellent Harmony in your singing Sometimes in such sites the initial enthusiasm is very high & then dwindles . I do hope you two would maintain this Tempo for not only you to enjoy & explore further But also provide members this great joy of listening . My Heartiest congratulations for your superlative performance & Best Wishes For many more

Have no understanding of Telugu, but what a beautifully crafted melody! Latha and Sarada, both of you sang so beautifully as you enacted the characters emotions too, and you were so much in sync that I could not tell your voices apart either…
Keep sharing such gems,

Latha – sweetesttttt voice on muziboo :) first few lines you stole the show with such innocence in your voice… specially liked ‘sharanaagathi neevu’ lines. some rhythm issue at 2:01, I thought

Sarada – Effortless singing… specially liked 3:06 – 3:16

Next song I wish to hear – Pranathi Pranathi :)

Sardha u r always cute in singing and love yr songs, of course Telugu from u is very endearing.
