Getting close with Bharathiraja and his family
http://dailythanthi.com/article.asp?...date=5/15/2007
Raja strikes a close cord to many of us in his description about BR's mom...Apart from his phenomical musical capabilities, his "eeramAna manasu" is probably one reason for the emotional appeal of his music...

Raja starts working with GKV...This is a nice article which shows that initially he couldn't write down even the notes (let alone in notation), though he had a "tape-recorderic" memory. Another aspect in which he can be compared to nadigar thilagam who supposedly had a photographic memory...

An interesting write-up on GKV, with some song links.
As confirmed by the above article, IR didn't do `thEn sindhudhE vAnam'. However, I remember reading in another article, may be on Muthulingam, that IR helped compose the folk number 'thanjAvooru seemaiyilE' in the same movie 'ponnukku thanga manasu'...
(another trivia is the chain of song starter lines used as movie titles:
...lakshmi kalyANam-rAman eththanai rAmanadi-(ammAdi) poNNukkuththanga manasu-thEn sindhudhE vAnam-unnidam mayangukiREn...)
