Its not from Roja or Yodha .....

the song "Vellithen kinnam pol" from "Penpada" directed by Crossbelt Mani

Story behind the song :

*On April 2006, on a music program in "Amrutha TV", Baranikkavu Shivakumar
was the guest. He is the one who written the songs for the film
"Penpada"(1975). He started to sing "vellithen kinnam pol" and declared its
ARR's tune.**

When he was working for that film, the music director was R.K.Shekhar(ARR's
father). Totally 4 song to compose. He composed 3 song and take a break.
That time six year old ARR came and play some music bits in Harmonium. All
are surprised and ask him to do the full song. Everyone like it and decided
to use it as the movie's soundtrack. Its titled "Vellithen Kinnam Pol" and
sung by Jayachandran. Whole orchestra is done by his father RK Shekar but
the basic tune is Rahman's.

When ARR came to **trivandrum** (Kerala) for Kairali-Swaralaya award,
KJ.Yesudas confirmed this story and sang this song on stage*
