  Dear all, help needed
  
  There was another song, possibly early 90's or late 80's, it had Dr.SPB & KSC, the song starts like this
  
  'I Love you, oru kadalum Malaiyum saatchi,
  semmanile thaneer ena .........'
  
  superb song, it sounded more like a Hindi song than Tamil song :)
  
  can some one tell me the name of the film, please?
  
  thanks

  There is a mindblowing song by Rafi Sahab in the Hindi movie Chitralekha (seems in kalyani raga).
  
  Man Re too kahe..

  "2) Mazhai kaalam vanthaal - Sarath Kumar & Nagma film. "
  
  Is it Ragasiya Police?. MD - Laxmikanth Pyarelal.
  
  
• From: Raghu (@ 193.129.245.198) on: Wed Jun 23 09:51:09 EDT 2004
  
  Magix,
  
  Thanks, I thought, it may be VS :), yes u r right, the song does sound very familiar, like an IR's old melody !
  
  Maverick,
  
  Saravanan sir(from another thread) has confirmed that the song you have mentioned , is indeed from Ragasiya police, but he said that the film is released during 1995, but i thought, Laxmikanth retired in the late 80's!.
  
  pls clarify & tell me if this song is available online some where, thanks!

  do you guys think spb is as good as hariharan or unnikrishnan whilst singing melodies?
  
  Vennilavey from Minsarkanavu or Ennavaley from kadalan would not have reached its heights if SPB has sung it.
  any opinions?
  
  
• From: nirmala (@ 206.123.74.30) on: Wed Jun 23 17:29:41 EDT 2004
  
  I feel KJ yesudas would be even more better than SPB..Hariharan and Unnikrishnan..this is the final opinion I have, what do you all think?
  
  
• From: Balasubbu (@ 61.1.212.233) on: Sun Jun 27 06:13:26 EDT 2004
  
  K.J.J.is certainly a good singer. But he is like Kandasala who never pronounced Tamil words properly. SPB, Hari & Unni never had this problem.

  The Hindu, July 3rd 2004
  
  "SANGEET ISHWAR ka bhasha hai," said Sripathi Panditharadhyula
  Balasubrahmanyam, popularly known as SPB, to a predominantly north Indian audience at the Music Academy recently. He was given a traditional welcome with a Rajasthani `safa' (red turban) and showered with rose petals by the members of Sanskriti, an affiliate of the Rajasthani Association. Sanskriti was celebrating Kadradan Day (thanking well-wishers) and on the occasion conferred the Sanskriti Kalashree title on SPB in recognition of his contribution to music, art and culture.
  
  The women members of the association clad in bright saris and salwar suits, the men in suits and children looked for space to sway to the music.
  
  When SPB began "Sab logon ko sa vinay pranam," he was greeted with resounding applause for speaking in Hindi. He continued, "I can speak in Hindi, but music is my mother tongue." Music is in my blood, he said, remembering his parents and mentor Kothandapani, who gave him his first break in the field, with gratitude.
  
  "Sanskriti is the root of our being. The problem arises when we tend to get away from our Sanskriti," said the veteran singer, emphasising the need to be culturally rooted. "But being a musician has its advantages. You make your bread and butter and make others happy too." His philosophical trip continued when he congratulated the amateur singers who rendered popular SPB numbers in Hindi and English. "The stage is meant to make mistakes and during live performances, mistakes do happen. Life is a learning process, with
  just a comma here and there, but no full stops."
  
  Stressing that successful music is all about team effort, Balasubrahmanyam said, "If I have received the award today, only 10 per cent of it goes to me, while 90 per cent of it goes to the lyricists, composers, the orchestra...."
  
  As if the audience knew what was coming, there was a deafening cheer when the orchestra played the opening tune of "Tere mere beech mein..."(Ek dhuje ke liye). More songs followed. "Roja janeman" and its Tamil version "Kadal rojave" seem to have a soothing effect every time you hear them. SPB concluded the musical fare with his popular breathless number from "Keladi Kanmani", `Mannil indha kadal andri', and a song from "Mere mehboob" as a tribute to Rafisaab.
