Hi! We've made a major addition to newtfmpage, and that is a big song bank. Dhool features thousands of songs for your listening pleasure. This site is a part of the newtfmpage.com - swara.com group. Together with newtfmpage, we wish to make this the best place to listen to tamil film songs online and know about tamil film music.

We value your feedback, and this will help us build the site better. Please post your comments below or mail to comments@newtfmpage.com.

Saravanan,
Look at the irony! K. Veeramani had to be content with 'kalaimaNi' while we see 'kalaimaamaNi' being conferred on people by the dozen!

What a song for today! This song and the movie are my all time favorite. It is very difficult to find equivalent song in TFM eventhough there are many comedy songs. Among all such songs, this song stands first. Once again I would like to state "there is no match to this song in TFM".

Vibuthi Parishidama!Sukshma parishadama!
Chants that never featured in any of the vedas or upanishads but Thengai made it look so genuine that TS Balakrishna SastrigaL must have been left bemused looking for them in vedas!(when his own son was busy,merrily ransacking the Queen's language!).A milestone in TF comedy.
Lakshmi: Enga! Ellaraum enna paithiyamnnu solranga.Neengaluma athai nambarrenga?
Muthuraman spontaneously answers back to say that she has made a silly statement "Chee Paithiyam"!(Naan nambuvena -unsaid)
Manorama: Samiyaarukku naan 5000 rupa donation tharratha irukken.
SuruLi: Inthanga 1 ruva.Ithayum sethu 5001A koduthrunga.
Muthuraman,Srikant,Murthy,Lakshmi too had their moments in the movie. Thengai was adept in both chennai kuppam dialect and Brahmin dialect (aathula Avul irukka ?-BadrakaLi)."Snehidalunga" , a rare usage to denote friends...........Gopu while interviewd in Hari-giri (jaya TV) confirmed that most of the "Sanskrit" were Thengai's own make.
Probably KN,KK ,thillu mullu and MMKR will remain the 4 tamil comedy movies wherein not even one scene was there for "Sentiment" .KN and KK (Gopu had a hand in both) never even had a villain!Utharavindri uLLe vaa,Avvai shanmugi,Mohamad-Bin ThuglaQ,Then Mazhai,MagaLir mattum,Adutha Veetu Penn,Sathu Mirandal,Sabash Meena,Galatta Kalyanam come in the second string.
With NSK,KN Ratinam,VKR,TS Balayya,Sarangapani,Thangavelu,MR Radha,Chandra babu,A Karunanidhi,TS Durairaj,Manorma,Nagesh,Murthy,Thengai,MauLi,SuruLi,Veerappan scripted Kaundamani&Senthil,Delhi Ganesh,SV Shekar,Vivek,oorvashi and Kamal ofcourse TF should have had a longer list of pure full-length comedy movies.
MSV -MayamalavagowLai guitaril ivvalu azhagaga ketkuma?Smart and small inteludes to elevate the comic scenario.
I never knew that Darapuram sunderrajan had sung in MSV's music.K.Veeramani sang the beautiful "Kodhayin Thiruppavai" in MSV-KKD magnum opus "Kirshna Gaanam"."PaLLikattu" i think featured in a dubbed movie "Sabari malai sree dharma sastha".

OISG,
Who can forget Thengai's famous dialogue in Bhadrakali, after drinking the first sip (without sipping!) of coffee from dabara tumbler: 'thanjaavoor maNam theriyaRathu! peaberry thaanE?'
His antics in 'idhayakkani' were also delectable:
'May I come in-naa-- aah?'
Another ThEngai immortal is 'kaliyugak kaNNan', where, with dialogues by Vaali, he keeps on teasing Lord Krishna about his leelaas!!!
In some other film, one dhadiwallah villain holds him to ransom and sends his wife Manorama on an important mission, saying he'll kill thEngai if she doesn't come back by 5:30 PM. ThEngai says " dhadi sir, oru saadhaaraNa gadigaaraththa nambi ennak konnudaadheenga saar! adhu original Seiko illa! en machchinan aminjikkarala paNNinathu! Body vERa parts vERa!!"

Wow, a great song and nice recollections of 'Thengai' ! I think his comedy was different from the mainstream comedy of Tamil films and that was a reason he couldn't sustain himself and had to even act as Villain in quite a few films. By the bye, how did he get the prefix 'Thengai' added to his name?

Da Vinci,
I don't know who gave him the title 'thEngaay'. But, in his last few years, doctors had advised him to avoid thEngaay in his food!

notable Thengai's dialogs in Tik tik tik.. chinni tried to follow thengai's footsteps but was not successful enough..
Thengai - Ennada panre...
Kamal (I guess) - Develop panren sir..
Thengai - Photo-vaya love-ya??

Read somewhere(Hindu Friday Feature?) that the Thengai title came after he acted as a coconut-seller in some movie

who can forget mangaLOm, mangaLOm and sookshma rasathamaha (along with sookshma parishadama)...
chinni jeyanth admits in many interview that forefather for all his jinfansi jilosaas is non other than our tall thengai....
remembering thengai indevertently brings me to the climax scene of thillu mullu. during his introduction monologue when kamal says city-la naan leading lawyer. it becomes the turn of fully shivering (of fear) thengai. he says "im sreeraamachandra moorthy, city-la naan leading industrisss.....sorry pressure-la vaai koLariduchchi....leading industrialist".
jambulingamae, veththala veththala, are one of my right-from-childhood loved songs.
"paambai adikkum aandavanae, madhu kashaayaththai kudiththavanae" really very hillarious.
i still remember my childhood days when my uncle use to tell me -- "dei un paasport aen kayilae" (quoting ullaasa paravaigaL), whenever i turn an urchin. seems these are all punch dialogues of thengai.

I dont like Thengai Srinivasan that much...just a few exception though, as mentioned earlier - Thillu Mullu and ofcourse Kaasethaan Kadavulada!
Thillu Mullu-la my favourite is that interview scene....
Thengai : Unga paeru?
SB : Subramannia Bharathy
Thengai : kavithai ezhuthara pazhakkam unda?
SB : palakkam illeenga!
Thengai : ungalukku intha zha-na varaatha?
SB : varum, aana konjam kastha padum
Thengai : kastha paduma? zha-navum varaatha, sha-naavum varaathu, paeru mattum Subramanya Bharathy
SB : short name Suppy sir! :-)
Kasaethaan Kadavulada!!! ... on of my all time favourites! ... super comedy! ... Kaasiyil Elaneer Prashithama! :-)
The best part is when Srikanth sits down along with Thengai and Venniraadai Moorthy goes "Chi, ezhunthiru da", Thengai stands up alarmed!
And then there is this Manorama's brother who sez "5000 roobaai panam jaakirathai saami, ellam thiruttu pasanga intha veetla"...Srikanth replies "ivara yaarunnu nenachundu pesara nee?"!! :-)
and...Thengai sez to Lakshmi "paal-la malai poattu kondu vaa ma", in typical tead kadaikaaran baashai, in the scene when Lakshmi misses to see the GnanaOli behind his head!
ofcourse there was the hialrious song which Kupps mentioned abt 'paambai adikkum aandavan' and the "Chi Paithiyakaari" dialogue which OISG mentioned ... i dinno which scenes to omit when i recorded it on tape!! :-)

btw there was a song in this film (Kaasethaan Kadavulada) which mentions the names of the singers and the Music Director rite?? ... intha padam thaaney athu? ... it is like as though it is a song being played on the radio and turns out to be Muthuraman-Lakshmi duet ... Indru Vantha Inba Mayakkam paatta athu??

C~P,
subramaniya bharathi kitta sreeraamachchandra moorthy kaekkura last question- ya marandhutiyae baa:
Thengai: "naa solluradha appidiya sollu paakalaam -- oru kattu suLLiyila aendha suLLi kOna suLLi"
SB: "vendaam sir! risk aayidum" :-)

Kupps,
hehe...yes..."vaendam sir, risku!"
the full interview scene is hilarious...
Thengai : athu enna sattayila?
Guy : Poonai Sir!
Thengai : athula enna perumai, get out! :-)
and then Rajni sez "....oru periya mahaan, avara paththi neenga kaelvi pattu irukkeengala?" ... "illaipa, yaar avar" ... "appo avar thaan enga appa!" :-)
