Kalaivaaniye (Tamizh)
Kalaivaaniye (Tamizh) Lyrics & Chords
Song Name: Kalaivaaniye (Tamizh)
Movie Name: Sindhu Bhairavi (Tamizh)
Music Director: Illayaraja
Director : K Balachander
Original Singer: KJ Yesudas
Sung by: Vishak
Mixing: Vishak
It is probably not an exageration to say that this movie will remain in the hearts of many Tamilians for ever. Who can ever forget the character of JKB beautifully potrayed by Sivakumar and of course Suhasini as Sindhu.
A little known fact about this movie….most of the shooting was done in my picturesque hometown of Visakhapatnam and I have visited almost all the spots covered by this movie.
Coming to the song itself, it is based on my favourite raagam Kalyani and maybe this is why, I made this song a little heavier on the classical at parts. This song is supposed to have purely aroganam based swarams only. I have tried to adhere to this as much as possible, but couldnt contain the avaroganam swarams in a couple of places….this furthur shows how difficult a composition this is and could be sung so wonderfully only by KJY.
A really lovely song to sing during Saraswati Puja and Vijayadashami. Happy Dussehra to one and all.

most impressive pick which i have come across in recent days…vishak…
ur style of singing is awesome…and it would have been fully yours…espeacially when you touch the base shrutis voice automatically goes like KJY…but in high notes…u r totally there…liked the special sanghatis added nicely…rocking performance vishak…& opt selection on this occasion…as u said it is one of the challenges for KJY with IR…and the composition of this song it self was a challenge to IR…
People dont dare to touch this song in concerts…its really a tough song…becasue shruti can slip out at any moment since there is no avaroganam to balance it…highly appreciate your dareness…
hats off to your work…

Awesome man! The only nit to pick is that the kaarvai you give around 1:20 has descending notes….you could have tried otherwise. But nonetheless a great cover.

I never knew that u were capable of attempting a hard core classical like this…Though we thought the initial alapana could have had more weight.In the sense,a certain sense of power was missing.It was less to be precise…:)
the madhyama kaala saahithyam was well attempted, but a little work on the ending phrases in terms of sruti will enhance the beauty of the song and the voice…:)
But to top it all,[at the risk of sounding boring :P] u have one superb voice ya!! To be able to mix various genres is nothing but talent…and a gift from the almighty.
kudos to that!

Hi Vishak….
I am so glad to see you back after few days……Also with such cute number & infact one of the hits of 1985 or 86……I remember the day on which i have gone for watching the movie as a child , at Sreepadmanabha theatre , Trivandrum…….“Paadariye Padippariyen” is stiling haunting me like anything….Those days , i was really feeling fear on the angry “red face” of Sivakumar in the movie….
Now , your cover….“Kalaivaniye…”…So nice of you……A well managed attempt……All the sangathies were perfect……Superb yaar
All the best.

said
Very nice, Vishak. I could imagine you smiling at “sirithaley” :-) Nice song choice for presenting Kalyani in different light – has such a vibrant presentation (perhaps due to the usage of ascending notes?). Mix however doesn’t project the weight in your vocal.
Enjoyed this!

Excellent effort Vishak. Kudos for attempting this toughie. I guess you decided to violate the ‘only ascending notes’ rule :-) in your improvs. Is this pitch lower than the original?

Goosebumps!!! A divine stay for about 3:37 mins and what a control over this tricky composition da… You are really blessed… You are too good at both the apical and bassy notes… Once again, you have comprehensively proclaimed your prowess at classical music… Only quibbling elements in this presentation are the extra stress given to few syllables and some diffident pronunciation of words… But I do know how toilsome it would have been to have control over all the parameters in bringing them intact… You have succeeded… Thanks for reproducing this classic and I request you to share this k-track with me, if possible…
Thanks & Regards,

Brilliant!!! the aalapanai from the first note itself was wonderfully done…. great pitch and voice control…. the gamagams and sangadhis throughout with the pallavi finishes are superb!
A super-challenging song – no avarohanam at all from what I know…. But you’ve handled it so well…. Goes to my faves…. Stunning rendition! Rock on….

Vishak,Excellent cover. One of my fav songs as well.
You could have probably avoided just that one sangathi that has the down threading notes just to keep up with the spirit of the song….:-)
Nevertheless, very well done.
