Nayagan Movie Video Songs Download

[Magdalen Tibor]

Nayakanis the soundtrack to the 1987 Tamil-language epic crime drama film of the same name directed by Mani Ratnam, starring Kamal Haasan. The film's musical score is composed by Ilaiyaraaja, whose soundtrack features five songs under the lyrics of Pulamaipithan and Ilaiyaraaja himself. The soundtrack, which was released under the Echo label, became popular after the film's release.[1]

The theme song "Thenpandi Cheemayile" plays for most of the film; during the introduction titles, it has the colloquial line "yaar adichaaro" (sung by Ilaiyaraaja), but when it plays later in the film, the line is altered to the more polished "yaar adithaaro" (sung by Haasan). Film critic Baradwaj Rangan asked Ratnam whether this change was an indication to the eventual refinement of Velu. Ratnam said that Ilaiyaraaja's portions were recorded first, and that when they went for recording, they had this rustic version which lacked background music, and was of folk quality. Because the song was going to be repeated throughout the film, they also wanted a more orchestral version, and in this version sung by Haasan, the language became more sophisticated.[10] Though Ratnam liked the original tune Ilaiyaraaja created for "Thenpandi Cheemayile", he felt it did not suit the song's narrative; the original tune was then used for "Nila Adhu Vanathumele".[11]

During the production of this film, Ratnam simultaneously worked Agni Natchathiram (1988) as did Ilaiyaraaja. He recorded string instruments and orchestra for Nayakan during morning hours, and recorded electronic instruments for Agni Natchathiram, as the film featured synth-pop music.[12][13]

Ilaiyaraaja's music was acclaimed by critics for using the periodic instruments set in tune with the storyline.[14][15] Writing for India Today, Madhu Jain wrote that "Illayaraaja's innovative music balances the film's obvious excesses".[16] The News Minute-based critic Ananda Kumar R. S. called Nayagan as "one of his [Ilayaraaja's] best works".[9]

All the songs in the film attained popularity, post-release, especially the song "Thenpandi Cheemayile" which had been referenced and parodied by several filmmakers in Tamil, becoming an integral part in the pop-culture.[17] "Nila Adhu" was remixed by D. Imman for the film Ninaivil Nindraval (2014).[18] During the Rock with Raaja concert on March 2022, Dhanush re-created the tune of "Nila Adhu Vanathumele" as a lullaby, altering the lyrics and performed it on stage, dedicating it to his sons Yatra and Linga.[19]

Govind Vasantha: I would say two songs. One is the Malayalam song 'Thumbi Vaa' from Olangal. I remember listening to the songs on a tape recorder. Me and my brother, we both love bass. This tape recorder had an equaliser and we would always push up the bass knob. But the bass of 'Thumbi Vaa' is legendary. It's another song in itself. It's not the normal pattern of using bass at all.

BR: For me it was the reverse. I could discover Raaja's Telugu film music easier than his Malayalam works. It was a little difficult for me. My first song was 'Thamara Killi Padunnu' from Moonam Pakkam. I was so thrilled because it was filled with the signatures of his works from Tamil. But it was sounding different because when you don't know the language, the language itself starts sounding like music. In Tamil of course, I could follow the meaning, but not in Malayalam.

GV: Even for me in Tamil, I had absolutely no idea what they were singing about. Other than Johnson master in Malayalam, I was more into background scores. But score were mostly available in Tamil for Raaja and Rahman. In Malayalam I wasn't personally impressed with background scores expect for Johnson master, who was legendary. So, I was more into Tamil music back then. Even in Moonam Pakkam, I would just listen without knowing who has composed it. I would even judge it. It's only later I found out who it was. There is a small bit in it, but it gels so perfectly with that song. Its synth, but sounds like a flute. I started exploring his songs and his third line will usually be the best line of the song. Like 'Thendral Vanthu' or 'Illam Kathu Visuthey'. I think he created that forumula of a song going high in the third line. And it will take you higher. And even his instrumentation. I used to hate the use of tabla, especially the way Hindi songs would use it. But Raja and Vidyasagar made me appreciate it again. They both use it so well.
