I'm a new visitor to this website. I couldn't see anyone discussing about Vani Jayaram's songs.
Let me start this one.(It had been there previously pls. forgive me!)
"Ezhu swarangalukkul ethanai paadal..
Ithaya surangathul ethanai kelvi...
Vaazhum manitharukkul ethanai salanam.."
Wow! Beautiful voice!

Yet another devotional album by VJ - go to
http://www.megacinema.com Choose Telugu
Choose the combo box under "search private songs". Select "Vani Jayaram". You get some Ganesh-stuti-bhajans.
And enjoy them !

digression - the PS song Needaya Rada from Pooja is a real favourite of mine. It is on my list of the best 20 PS songs I have heard so far.

vinu :
Spare me, I am a Northie. I am writing here only about what songs of Ps,vj I have heard :-)
Its not as much as other people here at all. Yes, but I have heard whatever songs are available on the websites :-) out of genuine interest.
Anyway please email me a list of Carnatic based Telugu songs by PS at ajit_v_r@yahoo.co.uk

Yes Naaz, sruthilayalu was dubbed as isaikku oru koyil (Sumalatha and Rajashekar). If "azagAnavan sri bAlakrishnan" did not make bAlakrishnan happy nothing else will.

AbAvANan is making another movie "iraNdu kaigaL" or something. He usually favours local singers. I wonder if VJ is singing for this new movie. Any idea?
- From: Naaz (@ 24.76.127.63)
on: Wed Jan 23 20:38:15 EST 2002
Abavanan has not chosen VJ for his other films, has he? I remember Sasirekha singing in OOmai Vizhigal, the music was by Manoj-Gyan?
"Isaiyin Mazhyile Undhan Idhayam Nanaiyave" KJY-VJ duet. Does anyone know the film?

Priya - The Megacinema list for VJ duets includes Vanam Kizhae - from Thoongadhe Thambi Thoongadhe and Neelakuyilgal Rendu...Both are out-and-out SPB solos (the humming in the former sounds like SJ, but it could be anybody, really... and the second song has Chandrabose in a filmi "fisherman" ditty.) Did you really like the list they have there? Is there another solo list of VJ's at the same site? Or - avallavuthana?

Did you know that VJ's full name is Kalaivani...
- From: Neel D (@ 24.98.40.94)
on: Wed Jan 23 22:10:02 EST 2002
Naaz, may be it was Manoj-Gyan who favored a special group of singers. They had TMS/VJ/BSS/SNS/PBS sing for them. Manoj-Gyan directed music for some AbAvANan movies. I may have mixed them up.
Is it true that VJ's full name is Kalaivani? She sure is Kalaivani. Was the short form for Mumbai?
- From: Naaz (@ 24.76.127.63)
on: Wed Jan 23 22:37:15 EST 2002
Manoj-Gyan had VJ sing for them in Chinna Poove Mella Pesu. "Sangitha Vaanil" was a really nice duet with SPB. If you listen to that song again (if have not already noticed this)notice how VJ nuances "un manjam thaane..." - very signature VJ.
Yes, her full name is Kalaivani. I believe the shortening to Vani came about after her marriage, when she was working at a Bank (State Bank of India, I think) in Mumbai and training with Vasant Desai and Jitendra Abisheki. Kalaivani Jairam sounds a bit like a title with a surname...don't you think? Vani Jairam is just right. She also sang the advertising jingle for Brite dish-detergent - her first commercial job!!

on: Wed Jan 23 22:40:15 EST 2002
Sorry about the above factual error. Chinna Poove had music by S A Rajkumar. Manoj-Gyan and VJ had some songs together....but I can't recall the names of the films right now. Might come to me later...that time of day (or night?) I guess!

There is one nadia starter movie where we have a vani's song too. The song is Pathu Pade Vanthen Pathu Kethu Nindren Ghanem padhu kuyile nanum padhugindren.

Nice to see your postings Naaz!!!
Regarding megacinema.com, I did see that SPB solos were included in the list. (Even I felt htat the humming was done by SJ!)
Those VJ duets are not classy but they are rare. We do not find most of those songs in any other site. I used to hear the "vayakka varappu kulla" song in Ceylon radio quite often. Was pretty nostalgic when I heard it after so many years!!!

Priya, M - thanks for the confirmations.
I have not heard the Oru Iniya Udhayam or Poove Ilam Poove songs. Are they available on the net? I would also like a link to Oru Indhiya Kanavu - esp. Yen Peyare Yennakku Marandhu Pona Indha Manantharaththil Yennai Peyar Solli Azhaithathu Yaar...nice duet by VJ/SPB?

Naaz, I don't think Oru Indhiya Kanavu song is available on the net. I have been looking for it since a while. I too used to like this song (though this song had no definitive tune and sounded more like poetry recital at times!!!)

Ramki -
Thanks for your post. Surely, we can all laugh a little...? It was not meant to be racist - I am just as Indian as you are and am aware of racial sensitivities and biases. Even tamizh has phrases like "Karuppu Azhagi" - and people have names referring to their skin colour like Karuthamma and Karuppaiah. Why, Vijayakanth himself was part of a song which ended as "Karuppu Nila" from Nianive Oru Sangeetham. Even Pelican Brief (Julia Roberts and Denzel Washington - in the reveiws (NewYork Post) was referred to as a "black and white movie".
So just chill a bit. I was not being pejoritive in the least. I know what is racist and what is not.

Vinu, many thanks for the links. It is good to get familiar with VJ's Telugu songs all over again. Keep them coming!

on: Thu Jan 24 16:19:40 EST 2002
Priya - you are right. It was a "musical" recitation, that song from Oru Indhiya Kanavu. MSV tried to do a Moondru Mudichchu again - remember how "poetic"ically rendered the songs "Vasantha Kaala Nadhigalile" and "Adi Velli" from that film were...Yen Peyare belongs to that genre of songs. Were the lyrics for that song by Vairamuthu?
Has anyone read Vairamuthu's article on VJ - He spent a day at her home in Chennai and wrote the essay for Savi magazine, I think. It was titled "Kuyilin Kootil Oru Naal" Both the "kavis" - Kannadasan and Vairamuthu have written prose-poem "appraisals" about VJ. Has anybody else perused these essays?

Hi,
VJ has also given her best in dubbing of Agni Nakshatram in Telugu it is Gharshana.
the songs oru brindavanam & Roja poo(sung by SJ in tamil),& one more sung by VJ and SPB are excellently rendered
One shoul;d also listen to Swati Kiranam in Telugu for which VJ bagged the national award.All the songs are great
