[karthikalokesh]

Those who disliked this song must be deaf listening to music haha !! What a song OMFG !! Its like " WOW "

[gmkraj]

can anybody tell the swaram of the last part

[subha3002]

Ajith did a great job to Music lovers, thanks alot.i didnt realise this song sung by Janaki Amma. wow.

[alexvinpaul]

songs those days were so divine and out of the world!!! S Janaki is a legend. She deserves a bharat ratna! Just listen to these kannada songs Shiva shiva enneda nalige yeke(Hemavathi) Bhuvaneshwariya nenemanasave(Mareyada Haadu) Jayagowri jagadeeshwari(Swarna Gowri) Nagisalu neenu (Gaalimaathu) Omme ninnanu(Gaalimaathu) Nambithe ninna naadhadevathe(Sandhya raga) All difficult songs to sing.... But S Janaki has rendered so beautifully

[Shanth4u]

who knows that this song composed female voice separately and they added nadhaswaram tune later ?

[saransang]

@Shanth4u no! that kinds of facilities were not available during those days !

[Shanth4u]

@saransang no buddy,am sure,i heared this news from ilankai vanoli in my school days.

[saransang]

@Shanth4u is it so? strange for me! anyways...thank you for information!

[bbsarav]

@Shanth4u I have heard about it too that it was mixed and not recorded at the same time.

gut!!!



[Harronjam]

yay

[kalpathypathy]

a melodious one from janaki and nadaswaram by karaikurichi arunachalam

dr pathy

[raja1b2c3]

this is sung by living legend janakiamma

[TheAmaaa]

who are those 9 idiots man

[sksaralelemutt]

Superb classical rendition by Janakiamma. She is Fabulous,Fantastic and in real meaning VERSATILE.

[thelabadabada]

why is the ATHItalam incorrect on the last part?

[vishuragz]

Superb song

[Aparrnahere]

excellent janaki . I seriously don't have words to explain how i reacted after listening to your rendition. Genius born on earth , Noone can match upto you Lovely <3

[govindarajanns]

Very conveniently people have ignored the genius of the maestro,the great Karukurichi P.Arunachalam-they have all showered praises on all others but this one. It will take years for someone like him to come before we reach the heavenly abode.

[krishnankumar9]

Quarter million viewings for Tamil Song speaks for itself

[gurpra]

one thing i know for sure is that there are at least 8 morons in this world..

[nsksaieshwar]

This song is simply great .50 YEARS after the film is released we listen to this song becuase of the superb singing by madam s.janaki, divine nadhaswaram by karukurchi arunachalam, music by s.m.subbiah naidu and of course good acting by actress savithri and gemini ganesan in this movie.

[suryvemagal]

great song

[rpalaniswamy1]

Very Nice Song. I like the very much.

Karur R.Palaniswamy

[somaskhan]

heavenly song....

[ramaraksha01]

I am a little disappointed to see the highest rated comment for praising the star's lip movements. I am a big fan of Savithri - She is the greatest actor of all time - but let's give praise where it is due - credit goes to S. Janaki and to the even more wonderful Nadaswaram

[rdhinakar]

Konjum Salangai - 1962

[Yamuneswari]

சிங்கார வேலனே தேவா - அருள்

சீராடும் மார்போடு வாவா - திருச்

செந்தூரில் நின்றாடும் தேவா - முல்லைச்

சிரிப்போடும் முகத்தோடும் வாவா

செந்தமிழ்த் தேவனே சீலா - விண்ணோர்

சிறைமீட்டுக் குறை தீர்த்த வேலா

சிங்கார வேலனே தேவா - அருள்

சீராடும் மார்போடு வாவா

[Bluesdirections]

I am near tears. So is the wife.

[bennyagp]

@Bluesdirections lol you must be listening to this song after a looong time?

[Bluesdirections]

@bennyagp

This was a song I used to hear near dawn as my mother got us ready for school. Talking about circa 1961. I relate this song to dawn. The percussionist was brilliant feeding the main instrument.

[babysbabu]

Complete close up shots for this song.No actress dare to do this these days.

Very difficult to sync the lip for this difficult song sung by some one with no/little music knowledge. Savithri amma is perhaps the greatest actress in India.

I could feel and realise the hard work they put in and their dedication. Absolutely no gimmicks. Pure class. I am blessed to see/hear this . Absolutely brilliant.

Thanks a lot everyone.

[babysbabu]

No/little technology those days. But still this song mesmerizes us. I salute and bow in front of these the legends Karukuruchi Sri Arunachalam, Savithri amma, S. Janaki amma, Gemini Ganesan.

No retakes for recordings those days. So greats are Karukuruchi Sri Arunachalam and S. Janaki amma.

[ranganathanism]

very fentastic old song for me

[siva82kb]

Brilliant!!! Incuding the acting... The lip sync by Savithri is excellent.

[rdhinakar]

abheri ragam. First mono track system. Technicolor

[bennyagp]

captivates the soul... the deep inside of you. 

[JaganPasumarti]

it is very good song and very melodious

[JaganPasumarti]

This song is very interesting and melodious,each and every nadaswara artist tried to leaarn and play in every concert,like marriage functions etc., This song is in Telugu also started like Neeleela padeda deva ,thanks to keep it in this video.

[deepasahni]

If any one have the Telugu version of this song please upload it...lookingforward for this song from long time

[westmambalam1]

it is an amazing song,............. and recently i visited karukurichi village and located a statue of karukurichi arunachalam in a small corner of that tiny village ( and for decades nobody bothered about the statue)

[alkariyazh786]

This song is done alkaaaaa

[sturdyrocks]

we'll never get a song like this from anybody ....

[manimariner]

fantastic music and voice i love this song so muchhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[rdhinakar]

Nadhaswaram by Karukkurichi P Arunachalam

Output: Mono with 4 track

Colour: Techni colour

Year: 1962

Thavil, Janaki, Nadaswaram and Jalra were single track each

[ChrisLawNZ]

An actress who was called Nadigayar Thilakam by Tamilians and Maha Nathi by her native Aandhra people. Very fitting that even other yester year actresses referred to her as Savithri amma. Did not live to be even 50

[sravi8888]

wowwwwwwwwwww.... She syncs her lips to the playback with absolute elan!!

[rajaarp]

for ur information ,nadhaswaram not played T.N.R,it was by Karakurichi P.Arunachalam

[mohanbuvan]

Indian government does not recognise south indian talents.

[shivramkrishnank]

Amazing Classics.....

[rmadhu1979]

Aabheri is the raaga

[MrPeriya]

Golden song.....God gifted voice...Excellent music.....

தேன் இசை என்பது இது தானோ... ...........வாழ்க தமிழ்

[bhuvananz]

The musical genius in this song is simply great. Ever Green Song. My goodness, simply superb.

[nimmipournami]

a nice song by Janakiyamma sang in Aarabhi raagam

[payirtrust]

Aarabhi kaathamma.. Aabheri.

[manivannanst]

One of the best songs ever made in Tamil movies in the last century. Great master piece . Even for S.Janaki, to repeat this might be difficult. RE MIX culture now a days, in movies, has set-in. They should try this song , in one of the new movies, so that it gives an opportunity ,for the younger generation, to hear and appreciate this music. In my view, this song is equal to, if not better than Jai ho ! !

[rsrekharaj]

golden words can not repeated. அதுபோலவே இது போன்ற இன்னொரு பாடல் வருவது மிகக் கடினம். ஜானகி அவர்களின் குரலும், T.N.Raajarathinam pillai அவர்களின் நாகஸ்வரமும்.....அப்பப்பா......­மெய் சிலிர்க்க வைக்கும் பாடலல்லவா?.....!!!!!

[maniparthi]

I Justt lovee the sonqq too much. Any suggestions where ii can dwnload this song from ?! I will hear it everysingle dayy (:

[svaranpoovan]

very nice song... i started love this song once alka sang. Thanks to Alka!!

[Koonalish]

@svaranpoovan

The Same here.. !

[rooze3]

Only after hearing on airtel supersinger show, I came to know how sweeeeeet this song is

[narasimharajuveera]

S. Janaki's one of her Best song!

[moodgard]

For those of you listening to this after hearing it on Airtel and too young to have known the original song in its heydays, check out some similar and equally beautiful songs, especially Paattum Naane Bhaavamum Naane and other songs from Thiruvilayadal. You'll really appreciate the raaga alapana and instrument blending towards the end of the songs, not to mention the incredible singing, like in this one. Please ignore what may seem as weird acting!

[cganesan87]

i first heard this song in airtel super singer 2 .its sung by alka.i'm really thankful for her.i would have missed a greatest song in my life if she wouldnt have sung it . wat a song.within this short period i have heard this song more than a thousand times. a pristine voice of janaki combined with the nathashvaram is really amazing. i'm sure a song like this one can not be composed anymore. also the acting is incomparable. today's actress should watch this song and learn.thanks for uploading

[janakan1000]

enna alagiya paadal!!!!!!!

[krishnankn]

இந்த பாட்டு கந்தனுக்கு அலங்காரமாக இருக்கும் ஒரு பாமாலை 

[blackbanners]

Stunning.... hav to salute for singer and nathaswara

[shenoysumathi]

I like this siong very much, Please send me the lyrics of this song

[hannahfanna789]

alka ajith sang this song in airtel super singer junior 2 finals

[jalagam80]

This is a devotional song on Tamil deity Lord Murugan at Thiruchendur, a coastal temple (Bay of Bengal). Magnum opus of south singer S.Janagi and the major instruments are nadhaswaram and davil. It will lingering in the minds of all Tamils as long as this Universe exists.N.Sivanesan, Vellore

[jawaharriyas]

I love this song very much.........

All must hear this song and know the power of Tamil and classical music

[ambimadavan]

i like this song very much................

[manmaravan]

very nice song....

by Nightingale of south India....

[sellapa786]

janaki is great

[jacobzach1]

i am 49 years old i hear this song when i am 8 years old on gramaphone and until today i was searching for this song, resonly on asianet idea starsinger anju sung this song and i got the movie name and heard today fully, while hearing my eyes were shedding tears , no comparison for this song, jacob zachariah from kuwait.

[vvijay7758]

The song is about Lord Muruga and his beauty. The song has been sung praising his outlook and his abilities as a Lord of the tamil language. The song comes from the movie "Konjum Salangai" sung by Mrs. S.Janaki.

[balajirajan007]

OMG ppl ! ! ! y'all should see Alka Ajith's performance of this song . . .

[TheVishal0007]

A great evergreen song

[MrParthy123]

stunning song by janaki madam... and rcking acting by saavithiri madam...

[kothai1001]

Savithri is not acting just living in this song.Anyhow credit shared by all artists .

[kothai1001]

I think Janaki hit from here itself along with Karaikudi Arunachalam Nathaswaram'

[sada2705]

Even though their mother tongue is telugu, janaki's tamil and savitri's lip movements are awesome.... so only she was called Nadigayar thilagam... even we have a replacement for nadigar thilagam, the space left out after savitri remain vacant in indian film industry.....

[abhiljanaki]

Dr.S.Janakiyammakke eeh ganam paaduvan sadhiku...enthokke avismaraneeya sambavanakal thanna eeh vanamabadiye arhikunna reethiyil aadharikkan rashtram ethu vare thayyarayilla ennathu khedhakaram aanu....i mean Padhma Awards

[deepasahni]

WOW Super rendition by S.Janaki.. and the music director SM. Suubbayya naidu

[krishnankumar9]

I forgot to add- The one shown blowing Nadhaswaram is biological father of famous actress Rekha who being in Hindi filmworld you would be familiar

[krishnankumar9]

You ARE mistaken It is by not much known SM Subbiah Naidu

[krishnankumar9]

@goodboyla This song is prayer song in Tamil to Lord Muruga taken in Sanctum sactoram of a temple with master piece with legendary Nagaswaram-long pipe like flutelike organ by Karukkurichi Arunachalam Music by SM Subbia Naidu sung by S Janaki a superlative team.

[anayagan]

Karukkuruchi's Naathasvaram is the easy part because he is Karukkuruchi Arunachalam. But imagine Janaki singing to his accompaniment even at her young inexperienced age.

[govindarajanns]

An Excellent song.Can any one post with the song :Orumayudan a Thiruppugazh sung by Soolamangalam and Karukurichi duo in the Raga Bilahari in the same film?

[nzpers]

KIndles nostalgia!

It was an inevitable item in Tamil weddings in the 60s and 70s.

The mellifluous meshing of Janaki's voice and Karukurichi's Nadswaram is to be savoured and cherished.

I did not see the film but heard the song played over the radio countless times. Thanks for enabling me to see the video.

[msel04]

wonderful, wonderful. It shows the quality of those days film, music directors and singers

[vjkrishn82]

yet another feather in the cap for the raga abheri..

[sudhar10C]

get me the goosebumps each time i listen!

[gramanuajm]

thank u for the great song!we should not forget the music director S.V .Subbiahnaidu

[Townwestkutty]

I think the music director is T R Paapa if I am not mistaken.

[vinvinu1984]

please dont build enemity in singers, Janaki and susheela are too close to each others. Janaki is a such simple and good singer and good by heart that no one will hate her.

[deccanheart]

I am a fan of Susheela and I usually dislike Janaki. But, this number is so greatly sung by Ms. Janaki. Fantastic!!!

[irajaraam]

who is lucky..?

music director..

singer janaki..

karukurichi arunachalam..(nadaswara vidvan) no these guys..

we ( the fans) are very lucky to hear such a song in our generation..

[vinvinu1984]

actually the music director tried for so many singers, none of them were able to sing. even P leela, P susheela, they were not able to sing. finally it was the only S. JANAKI. no one can sing this like this

[MullaiCanada]

the true story of this song...the music director tried even lata mangeshkar to sing this...no one couldnt but janaki amma. the reason is they all got struggled to sing the swarams in that kaalam. u r the one janaki amma...

[crebillonfils]

yep...and Jaanaki also has a carnatic background :)

[shreemahesh]

Its so stunning voice... But if you notice, its even more stunning how effeciently Savithri does her lip movement... Grrrr these dumb heroines these days!!!

[deepasahni]

@shreemahesh True!:) they cant even talk well, how could you expext it:) them to do.. hehe they only know how to display thier body like a doll in show case:)

[morpheusnape]

@shreemahesh Savithri was trained in music.. even in Saraswati Sabatham her fingers on veena would be in sync with the music..

[ktap12345]

@shreemahesh I really Accept You

[aramuskguy]

S.Janaki ammagaru- words fail to describe your unbelievable vocal talent. You are a super woman, so to say. No other female playback singer can perhaps sing such difficult songs with so much ease...Calling you "Great" is far too inadequate. When is the Govt of India going to honour you with a suitable Padma award?

[kgvdoss]

S. JANAKI, a versatile singer. Also, S. JANAKI is my all time favourite singer.

[sathyasayee]

its really a fight between the vocal brilliance of Janaki with that of Nadaswaram brilliance of Arunachalam...but the winner is both of them....

[vinvinu1984]

S janaki is the melody queen, karikuruchi aranachalam has done a great job

[palakizh]

Fantastic.....I was searching for this song for a very long time. Thanks....Thank u very much

[konekpiah]

awesome music and S.Janaki at her best.

[manuv700]

Credit goes to S .Janaki...........Hats off

[shansnrmp]

Um...how do we distinguish one raaga from another?

[horshodg]

based on the musical notes in the composition

[mughaleazamfan]

Is it like western music whereby we have C major, D minor etc etc?

[horshodg]

yes..they have different names though..and there may b some other differences...i dont kno much abt western music

[mughaleazamfan]

Ow...okay, thanks for the help...have a nice day... :-)

[kanank4242]

[tamilvengai]

Idhu paatu....

Tamil Vengai..

[ranjidxb]

my name is raj and working in dubai, in fact, this video has given a warmth for my feelings and passinations. Thank you all concerned to make the video a grand success

[Janaricious]

I agree with you:) which idiot disapproved this comment?

[bingutata]

old is gold , when i hearing i will fly over the sky

[narendran84]

Thank you very much for posting such a wonderful song! The song combines with the voice of Janaki in her early days and The Nadhaswara (Nagaswara) vidhwan the great Karukurichi Arunachalam! It is very sad that our country has forgotten the great artist!

[anandaamec]

nice one.

Keep post old and gold songs

[omsak1953]

sing song voice of janaki at its best in this song clip

[deccanheart]

God Bless you for posting this fantastic epic musical composition.

Never expected to be able to ever hear this since I left my beloved county.

[gopigopal]

goodboyla, the song is in praise of Velan, the south Indian manifestation of Karthikeya. The lyrics essentially wants the God to come and bless her. The invocations, meaning more or less the same, are stated in different ways.

The song is arguably the toughest film song to sing, specially when Janaki throws some extremely difficult octaves to match with the wind instrument (nagaswaram, an instrument usually used on auspicious occasions).

[MAN13101987]

I am cannot express my gratitude on hearing of this song this is life time wondering song i thank youtube on displaying this song old is gold the ever brilliant

[goodboyla]

I am a 56 years old Sikh and a Punjabi in Malaysia. i used to hear this song on my neighbours radio when i was young. its been imbedded in my unconscius memory ....until today i hum it unconsciously...its a simply great musical piece ...tho i dont understand a word of the lyrics.can anyone tell me what is it all about

[bennyagp]

@goodboyla They used to play this song in the temple near my home everyday when I was a small kid. Now i'm 26, I wanted to listen to this song for a long time.. now I searched it here and its feeling amazing to hear it again. I think our case is very similar. :)

[deepasahni]

@goodboyla Hi " even though i dont know much.. will try to make it..

One Fine and holy day oh Lord muruga i will sung about your leela.

you are the one who created us and ruling us...

[ganeshkasiraj]

@goodboyla respect.....

[kothai1001]

@goodboyla A DEVOTIONAL SONG ON THE PRAISE OF beauty of lORD MURUGA and Nathaswaram has follow up with tune as a challenge.

[madhanraven]

Hello sir ,

Its a Song depicts about lord Muruga (subramaniam), second son of Shiva . This song was sung by s.janaki a veteran singer many languages . The lyrics meant the lord to come to the world . I am really glad you liked the song .... As we do not have language for music.

regards

-Madhan

[venkateshrk]

@goodboyla Its a song, adressed to Lord Muruga (Subramaniya), called Singaravelane Deva.

[ThePbs77]

@goodb

[decsro]

Hi, I cannot express my gratitude to you for putting up this song. I have been searching high and low for stunning song by Janakiamma. I am in awe of her. I thank YouTube for this brilliant forum and you for making this gem available to fans like me. Again thank you a million times.

[inapcha]

i m blessed :)

[mohamedmydeen]

Janaki is the best. She sang very few old songs and all of them are jewels!!!

[Nadarajah9805]

When I watched Singara velane deva in the sixties, I would have never even dreamt of having this wonderful oppertaunity to listen to this clip at home. Nathaswaram and the voice never left my mind since then. I am fortunate to have found this clip. Thank you.

[rinkster]

Apparently, Konjum Salangai was Savitri's 100th movie.

[rinkster]

'Un isai yendra inba vellathile neendhuvatharku ododi vandha ennai yematradhe shanta' LMAO! But I lub the song thou, S.Janaki at her best :) I thought Savitri did an ace job in the song, its difficult to lip sync such songs without the knowledge of music - pallai odaikira swarangal! :D

[shyamrug]

Combination of Karukurichi's Nadaswaram & S.Janaki's melodious voice make this song all time hit of Tamil film Society.Kudos to all those involved.Best regards from Shyamala Ramakrishnan,Toronto,Ontario, Canada.

[WYCHWOOD18]

Singara velane deva indeed-thanks ever so much for sharing.Brings to mind all those glorious years of my childhood and adolescence.

[iseeking]

Wasn't the nadaswaram by S M Subbayya Naidu?

[SriRaj32]

no karacuruchi arunachalam

[SriRaj32]

no karacuruchi arunchalam

[yaanai]

yes, the incomparable nadaswara chakravarti Karukurichhi Arunachalam. The voice and nadaswaram were separately recorded and combined. In early 1960s that was considered amazing!

[buma999]

fine

[nesan6]

superrr thanks

[equinox9]

Was a long time off being born when this film came out but this is a great song.

[vigneshac]

Savi ma is so divine and graceful in this song.... Janaki's voice aptly suits her....

[netanand]

thanks a lot bbsarav for uploading this song i have heard this song manytimes but this is the first time i am able to watch it .thanks again karukurichi arunachalam's nathaswaram is really immortal as well as janaki amma's voice

Who is Kamala Lakshman in this movie?
