puRA reNdu (Kuppaththu Ponnu)
Pick #478
Song: puRA reNdu
Film: Kuppaththu Ponnu
Singers: S.P.Balasubramanyam, S.Janaki
Lyrics: ?
MD: Shyam
Year: 1982
This is a pick by Neel. He writes:
A modern and light love duet, very typical of Shyam's many other duets.
Short little hummings sprinkled throughout the song, chorus bits, the
bongos that softly embrace the song all the way through, and the
violins that provide the base for the entire song, beautiful lyrics
saying the usual things in a whole new style, SPB and SJ at their best
- altogether this is one of my favorite songs.
"Kuppaththu Ponnu" apparently had Prem (Krodham fame?) and Rani Padmini
in the lead. Not the first time some obscure film had the privilege of featuring such a wonderful song.

tfmlover writes: I briefly watched the movie. Father dies devastated family financially too. Big bro avm rajan studies ruined , sis luxhmi , little bro all taking refuge in their aunt's house. Wicked wicked sundaribai. Little bro 's legs gets paralyzed by polio. Avm rajan too ends up joining mob. At last bomb kills him too with connection to the mob. Why make such a worrisome movie..? Yaen?
