IR songs that stood the test of time " On screen"

[Nasc]

the closest thread I saw in this regards was abt song picturisation - by Mappi - that covers song picturisation in general - good /bad etc.

objective of this thread is

1. list only IR(or for that matter of any MD - before the 2000s) songs that are still visually fresh and stood the test of time
2. consider aspects of - choreography , Cinematography , sets , Picturesque , acting , editing , director’s touch, best representation of time period etc (similar lines)
3. Should not be un-intentionally funny -
4. should have a USP in either of the above mentioned i.e not considering the song’s audio/brilliance
5. known ,recognized,attributed to apart from the song's audio/brilliance

the list isnt going to be huge but atleast we will hv a worthfull one

Everything about the movie MOONAMPAKKAM is heart touching!
If Director Padmarajan with Thilakan is not featured in this thread, it's an insult to the art of film making!

When it comes to beauty of the song and its beautiful picturization going hand in hand, "mounamaana neram" from Salangai oli just wins hands down, The romance blosomming between Kamal and Jayapradha after sending the nwly wed couple[Saratbabu and co] to the nuptial , the ravishingly gorgeous Jayapradha immersing in thoughts about Kamal on the dewy dawn when she sees flowers in her balcony garden....all simply too lovely, I say.
