IR gave a few terrific songs and two of them had Sridevi on-screen :

ஆகாய கங்கை (no intro needed for this classic and both actors are superb on screen):


Interesting bit of info about Aahaya Gangai - Sri Devi had a fractured leg and couldn't even stand let alone dance. So the director made her sit or used clever angles to hide that fact that she could barely stand (she had very few shots where she stands - most of the time she is just sitting and it is not even obvious - Rajni making up for his costar with a lot of moving around!)

If you revisit this song you can identify how well made the song was without making this fact public. Ask anyone to find out what is different in this song and they probably wouldn't find it unless you tell them. Art at its best I would say !

A rare chance of having both Sridevi and Rekha in a Thamizh movie got missed - meeNdum kOkilA (music album in 1980 and the movie release in 1981) had both when the initial stills came out.

Later Deepa (Unni Mary) came in place of Rekha.

Sridevi got 3 wonderful songs from IR in this album.

சின்னஞ்சிறு வயதில் (the most popular one, Sridevi looks typically innocent and beautiful)

ராதா ராதா நீ எங்கே (generic love song)

Unmai....'Engengo Sellum' from Pattakathi Bhairavan and the song 'Kanmalargalin Azhaippidhal' readily come to mind.

But with R.C. Sakthi being the director for Dharma Yuddham, we would have had hope that he would have done decent justification even if Sri was fit.

But nevertheless he did a fabulous job with the picturisation of this song.

The terrific combo of Sridevi-Kamal-Ilayaraja-S Janaki - SPB in one more song from that 1981 from an obscure movie Sankarlal.

The album came out in 1979 with "Ilayaraja-Gangai Amaran" music (that surprised many people). However, the reason for such a thing came to be known to the public only during recent years.

As the director T N Balu (who earlier did sattam en kaiyil with IR-Kamal) died after starting the project, it became an "eduppAr kaippiLLai".  That way, with only one song composed (possibly for the movie inauguration) IR couldn't get involved in the project anymore and GA took over to do the rest of the songs (and later the BGM).

The movie came out after a couple of years, with cameraman N K Viswanathan directing the rest of the movie (and Kamal helping him out, if one goes by some old articles) only to fail at BO.

Regardless, we got one fantastic number, as mentioned in the beginning!

இளங்கிளியே இன்னும் விளங்கலியே (Sridevi is so beautiful & Kamal literally flings her in one shot Shocked )

Many of the recent tributes to Sridevi talked about how she effortlessly overtook many heroes to become a super star and she could pair with anyone and make a movie run.

She got that status pretty quickly in TF field itself (and maintained it when she migrated to Telugu / Hindi fields without much difficulty, as there was no Kamal or Rajini in those fields but far less talented men in those fields Wink )

She had a big hit in 1981, with Sarath Babu paired to her in a ambulimAmA kind of story - bAla nAgammA.

Three songs featured her on screen (interestingly, sankarAbharaNam fame Manju Bhargavi danced for two other numbers, with VJ giving pinnaNi for her).

The three Sridevi songs :

Looks like there are only 3 more TFM albums by IR for Sridevi (2 in 1982 and 1 in 1983) - all 3 are classics.

So, I'll complete this exercise today by covering moonRAm piRai, thanikkAttu rAjA & aduththa vArisu.

One with Kamal and 2 with Rajini.

First the Kamal one of 1982, the classic moonRAm piRai - Sridevi was on-screen was all songs except ponmEni uRugudhE which had silk.

thankikkAttu rAjA (1982) had limited role for Sridevi, as that was a Rajini-centric movie primarily.

(Sridevi is his jOdi only for a brief portion of the movie and then gets married to Jaishankar Laughing Possibly because she became busy in Telugu they modified the story. The song 'mullai arumbE' is not on screen even).

However, in the songs where she appears on screen, she is charming - as always!

The album is available on #IR_Official_YT :

aduththa vArisu (1983) was the last Thamizh film that Sridevi did with Ilayaraja.

(After this there was possibly not many direct Thamizh movies - there could have been some dubbed ones or multi-linguals like english vinglish but not many she did in Thamizh itself).

For a fact, there was this "harE rAdhA harE krishnA" that got dubbed from Telugu (Kamal-Sridevi) but I don't think we should cover it here Embarassed There could have been others (with Chiranjeevi etc. and I'm oblivious to them).

As for aduththa vArisu is concerned, there had been four superb songs featuring Sridevi. (She wasn't in the other two iconic songs, Asai nooRu vagai & pEsakkoodAdhu that had Silk)
