Devude Ichhadu Vedi Okkati

Dear Music Lovers,
The song that I am playing for you today is probably one of my all time favorites of mine for countless reasons, the movie itself is such a success for "Iyyakunar Sikkaram" Dada Saheb Phalke award winner Director K. Balachander, who has introduced Actors like Kamal Hassan, Superstar Rajinikanth, Jayaprada, Jayasudha, Saritha, Prakash Raj, Nassar, Vivek, Sujatha to name a few, in fact he is the one who has introduced us the Oscar winner A.R. Rahman as music director too. 


But, my real tribute goes to the song writer "Kavi Arasu" Kannadasan, meaning King of poets as he is called in Tamil Nadu who has penned the original lyrics in Tamil. Who has written around 5000 lyrics, 6000 poems and 232 books during his life span.



Tamil Version: Singer: K.J. Yesudas





Telugu Track: Lyricist in Telugu Aathreya does bring out the essence of Kanadasan's writing  in Telugu too.....
