1)kiravani
2)thalattum (gopura vasallile)
3)poovoma urgolam

  Poobalam Isaikkum -- Thooral Ninu Pochu
  Chinna Chinna Vannakuyil -- Mouna Ragam
  
  I will say the first one is not pure Gowri Manohari. It does have hints of it though here and there. Same with Chinna Chinna also. It has Kaapi type phrases in between.
  
  But for the purpose of classification, they can be brought under Gowri Manohari.
  
  I have to pay a listen to the other two songs.
  
  Later,
  
  TNA.

  There are two Simmendra Madhyamams in Kakkai Chiraginile (for different situations)
  
  1) Padi thirindha enthan thozhi
  2) Oor oora pogum indha odambu

  Venkatesh, as far as I can remember the tune Oor Oora pogum is in MMGowlai, probably you meant some other song.

  Here are 2 examples of Keeravani used in more than a song in the same film
  Film : Paadum paravaiga
  Songs : Keeravani**2 ,
  nizhalo nijamo idhu poraattamo
  Film : Kaadha oviyam
  Songs : Naadham en jeevane
  Kuyile**2

  Mythila, isn't 'Naadham en Jeevane' Natabhairavi?
  
  btw, IMO, the best piece of Keeravani is 'Malayoram Veesum Kaathu'. I don't think I stated this before.

  "nee thoongum nerathil" - manasellam by Hariharan is the most soothing kiravani I have ever heard.
  I like "oru thulir onru arumbudhu" also from the movie thodarum

  Thalttum poongattru (Gopuravasalile) is based on Simhendramadhyamam and not Keeravani

  A malayalam Keeravani song by IR - Devasangeetham Neeyalle..from the film Guru.
