Oli padaiththa kanninaai

Post by HarishankarK »

Request the ragas used in the ragamalika version sung by M S Subbulakshmi?

I know there is Kapi somewhere in between but don't know the others ragas. Pl help.

Thanks for responding but I'm sure the song doesn't begin in jonpuri.
Hope someone can help me here. I need to teach this song to my daughter
Thanks

It starts with Mand, switches to Kapi from 'Ilaiya Bharathathinai '

Are both the third and fourth verse Kapi?
Third verse sounds 100% Kapi but don't get the Kapi feeling in the fourth verse.

Yes, third and fourth are in Kapi, not necessarily the good filter Kapi.

I have been under the impression that the first stanza is is kalyani. ..the second also same ragam.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
third and fourth stanzas are same ragam but which? I am yet to decide...may be Kapi.
mand does not occur here. Nor jonpuri

Of the 4 stanzas, the first two are in Kalyani and the third and fourth in Kapi.

There is absolutely no Maand or Jonpuri here. Certain.

arasi, I am told, is related to famous carnatic vocalist AnathaLakshmi Sadagopan, of the 1959-1960 period. I am really surprised that she could go so very wrong in ragam identification for this song, despite that illustrious background.
