அபிராமி / ஆண்டாள், used by Kamal

Me back after a while!!! Back from India புது புத்துணர்ச்சியொட.
My father is a major சக்தி பக்தர் and recites அபிராமி அந்தாதி on a daily basis. Incidentally I was listening to it at PB's house when he pointed out this particular slokam as being used by Kamal/Raaja in Guna. My goodness!!! A world of difference between the original recitation and the way Raaja has composed. I have always felt, even without knowing that it belongs to அபிராமி அந்தாதி, that the music did deliver its feel.

அபிராமி அந்தாதி

நாயகி, நான்முகி, நாராயணி,
கை நளின பஞ்ச
சாயகி, சாம்பவி, சன்ங்க்ரி,
சாமளை, சாதி நச்சு
வாய் அகி மாலினி, வாராகி,
சோலினி, மாதங்கி என்று
ஆய கியாதியுடையாள் சரனம் -
அரன் நமக்கெ.


Similarly a rerecording piece in Hey Ram, when Saketh Ram returns to SriRangam, very intelligently thought about. A perfect BGM to play up Arangam and a marraige in the temple town.

நாச்சியார் திருமொழி

வாரணமாயிரம் சூழவலஞ்செய்து
நாரணநம்பி நட்க்கின்றானென்றெதிர்
பூர்ணபொர்க்குடம் வைத்துப் புரமெங்கும்
தோரண்ம் நாட்டக் கானாக்கண்டேன் தோழி

மத்தளம்கொட்ட வரிசங்கம் நின்றூத
முத்துடைத்தாமம் பந்தற்கீழ்
மைத்துனன் நம்பி மதுசூதனன் வன்ந்து என்னை
கைத்தலம் பற்றக் கானாக்கண்டேன் தோழி

To point out the significance, a dialogue that succeeds this scene

"என்னை ஆத்துக்காரியா தான் ஏத்துக்கலை at least, ஆண்டாளாவது ஏத்துக்கோங்கோ"

Each song has a palan in andhadhi, The quoted song is to get darshan of ambal. Padathil kamal antha ponna patha udane "abirami" darsanam kidaicha mathiri santhosa paduran..apt song for that situation. Raja or Kamal oda genius therinjathu.

Varanam aayiram song by andal describes tamizhar thirumana sadangugal. Andal kalathila irunthu inni varai kalyanam kitta thatt appidiye than nadakuthu.
Andal ranganathoda senthalo illaiyo ava oru bayangara prodigy. Ithai ellam padina aandal less tha 14 years old!.
Avaloda alangaram with kili, kondai and kannadi in one hand makes her pathale therium naan solrathu.

Sujan,

A very good information and I never knew this subtlety before.

Definitely the music in Guna & Hey Ram deliver its feel.

And whenever I listen to this particular piece "Nachiyar Thirumozhi" , I get goosebumps all over ! Very engaging ..

Lastly, PB , your comment was informative .

Forgot to ask about this in the last comment. You have any info about " Sanyasa Mantaram " in Hey Ram ? I kinda got addicted to it very much in the recent times. Very mesmerizing ..

yaru intha anonymous. Intha sanyasa manthram nijamave sanyasam pothu solla padum manthrangal. There was a controvorsy then invloving L.Subramanyam, Kanchi MAdam and Kamal. That led LS to leave the team. Then Raja over took.

ofcourse in the paartha vizhi song another anthaadhi comes near the end. It is:


இடம் கொண்டு விம்மி இணை கொண்டு இருகி (2)
இளகி முத்து வடம் கொண்ட கொங்கை மலை கொண்டு இறைவர் வலிய நெஞ்சை
நடன் கொண்ட கொள்கை நலன் கொண்ட நாயகீ
நல் அரவின் படம் கொண்ட அல்குல் பணிமொழி, வேதப் பரிபுரையே!
வேதப் பரிபுரையே !!

Sujan,
You should see this post that is about film guna and Abhirami Andhadhi. I gave this only because of a sheer coincidence :)

Enna maama,

Oru maasam aachu, innum oru blog kooda podaama appdiye okkandrukkele :)

As for "Naayagi, naanmugi" was set to a tune, it was beautiful ! Raja does have a wonderful knack of projecting good lyrics. Sridhar, the piece you were talking about was beautiful too !
