As we all know AM Rajah, the man who had a melliflous voice,who won the admiration of millions of fans was a versatile composer by himself. His compositions in films like Then Nilavu,Kalyanaparisu,Aadiperukku are just great.

He gave a lot of light music programs all over India with his wife jikki and the Great Maestro Illayaraaja was a guitarist in his troupe for a period of time.

Thanks.

  Hi all,
  
  Am surprised to see an A M Raja thread reappearing like Phoenix rising from the ashes. I thought people in tamil nadu have forgotten this man as raja means only one man now. But AMR was the original raja of TFM. What great compositions has he given! Absolutely wonderful music. And what a melodious voice! Probably his tamil diction could be faulted because he was a telugu, but so too is PS and how good her diction is! I remember seeing AMR in a small-time role in the A Nageswara Rao bilingual starrer Devadas. The last movie of CRS and his photo too appears in the credit. Anyway AMR was underutilised by TFM. Don't really know the reason. And another tidbit. AMR never used TMS when he was MD, though he has used Tiruchi Loganathan and Seergazhi. Neither did he use CS Jayaraman. Any particular reasons for this? Can anyone throw some light on why AMR was put in cold storage at the turn of the 1960s?

  As a matter of fact, AMR did use TMS in the movie `Anbukkor Anni' for the song `Sathiyame Thunayanapothu'. I think he had used him in `Aadiperukku' too, but I cannot recall the song.
  He has used PBS in `Vidivelli' and `Aadiperukku'.

  AA,
  
  I think there is no song for TMS in Aadiperukku. PBS (Puriyaathu Puriyaathu Vaazhaiyin Ragasiyam...) and SGR (Annaiyil Arulee Vaa Vaa ???) were the other singers other than AMR and PS who sung in that movie... I couldnt think of any TMS songs..Please let me know if u r able to recollect!
  
  Thanks
