Kiru sir,
ஜெமினியை நமக்கு (அதாவது ஆம்பளைகளுக்குப்) புடிக்குதா இல்லையா என்பது முக்கியமே இல்ல...பெண்களுக்கு அவர் காதல் மன்னன் ஆயாச்சு, ஜெயிச்சாச்சு
ஆனா அவரோட இந்தப்பொண்ணை ஒரே படத்தோட தொரத்திட்டாங்க...தமிழ் சினிமா தப்பிச்சது!
இருந்தாலும், அந்த ஒரே படத்துல 'பனி விழும் மலர்வனம்', 'நீதானே எந்தன் பொன்வசந்தம்', 'ரோஜாவைத் தாலாட்டும் தென்றல்' மாதிரி அல்ட்ரா ஸ்பெஷல் பாட்டெல்லாம் கண்ணை மூடிக்கிட்டு பாக்குற அளவுக்கு சாதனை பண்ணிட்டாங்க.
BTW, என்னுடைய கருத்துப்படி (பானு)ரேகா, அதாவது ஜீஜீயோட அக்கா / பச்சன் காதலி, பூனைக்குப்பிறந்த புலி
கவுதமர் புண்ணியத்துல சில பல ப்ளாக்கர்கள் டாக்டரம்மாவை மறுபடி நினைக்கிறாங்க
Even a regular cine fan, may not instantly recognize the name of , Dr Jaya Sridhar Rajan, and the fact that she was the heroine in a famous film.

On Gemini, an old article in The Hindu :
http://www.hindu.com/mag/2005/04/03/...0300560500.htm
End-digAppa would switch effortlessly between impeccable English, Sanskrit and the pungent vocabulary of Tamil filmdom. He dashed off syrupy English poems with a gusto that made me giggle with embarrassment; yet he had a refined sense of humour that, regretfully, was never exploited by his directors. He loved my mother and quite a few "others" and yet expected us all to love each other too!
p.s. The above hindu article was by one Dr Jaya Sreedhar
I used to have this lady friend who supposedly was sharing my love for 70s/80s IR songs. Her name is Vasantha, and goddamit, most of the songs that she really likes has "Vasantha" or "Vasantham" in it. WTF!!!! Anyway, I cut off the friendship for this and other reasons. Good riddance.

I have started the 90s Raja writeups. So please go there as well

Raja of 90s: http://onlyraja.wordpress.com
I felt like something is missing in the final version of "Saindhu Saindhu" tune after I heard Raja's composing this song with harmonium. While Yuvan is a factor, today I went back and listened to Harmonium version again, and realized that lyrics could have been better.
The basic bhava in the original notes may not be fully expressed in the lyrics. In other words, the drama & story in the notes is missing in the lyrics.
So I took some liberty to experiment with the beginning lyrics. I cannot even write Tamil properly so me writing lyrics is a joke. The idea is to just explore some of the nuances in Raja's composition. Please bare with the quality of lyrics.
Parsing Pallavi
1. There's bit of surprise and disbelieve (of love) in the original tune.
2. Musical notes pose some sort of the questions.
3. Notes climax but doesn't completely resolve the original surprise, disbelieve and love.
I tried to follow this structure.
1. Establish the mood & situation.
2. Raise question, intensify question.
3. Give some reasonable conclusion to questions.
Here's a version, inspired by original lyrics.
Saindhu saindhu nee paarkumbothu.... aada ada...hey..hey.
Vazhaintha imaikal enn manathai vaattaa.... kannee...hey..hey.
Muzhumaiyai inaiyavaa?
Iruvarum Oruvaraa?
Innimel........
Ellam Sorgamaaa?
One more version.
Iravenin Mayakama?
Aasaiyai Anaikavaa?
Sonthame......
Vaa thaa Muthame.
What do you guys think?
Original tune. (0:00 to 0:30)

Senthil, I don't intend to burst the bubble but to be honest, your lyrics somehow doesn't seem to go with the flow of the tune. Your intent is interesting for sure, but lighta vaarthai muttudhu! My thamizh skill's pretty much zilch, but the edhugai mOnai doesn't 'fit' right, me thinks. Guys like Suresh65/P_R/Jai would probably assess it better.
