Sudha sang this as a ragamalika based on pre-concert requests. I could identify kunthalavarali. Could anyone please tell me the other ragams?

Here is the original version - Smt MLV's from the movie kula deivam with an absolutely phenomenal dance by Smt. Kamala (Kumari Kamala as she was then) choreographed by her guru, vazhuvUr Sri Ramaih Pillai: http://www.musicindiaonline.com/p/x/cJC ... As1NMvHdW/

I sensed these in Sudha's MMU piece.

thAye - kuntalavarali
kAlinil silambu konja - kApi
bAlanenru - ??
munda nAl andi nEram - sindhu bhairavi

Corrections welcome.

naarayanan: Thanks for pitching in.

I definitely do not have a good grasp of Brindavana Saranga but the limited concept I have does not seem to match with what she sings for 'bAlanenru'. Did you get to it through swara break down or through overall feel?

Thanks all. I am still dependent of raga alapana (even brief) to identify. Words trip me up especially for the 'not sure' ragas.
