Namakame is about the best song I have heard from ARR in such a long time now. The raagam seems to be Anandha Bhairavi (dont bash me if i am wrong). Remember the Premier ad from ARR from 20 years back...same scale I think. ARR is the only one to compose such wonderful carnatic music based songs. Innisai alapedai from Varalaaru and the recent Omana penne nadhasvaram ending from VTV belong to this class of music from ARR.
Other than these rare offerings from him, his songs have gone down the drain for quite a long time now. With respect to the contradictory taste in this thread, it's obvious choice between extreme classy carnatic stuff versus very ordinary stuff. If someone finds Anandha Bhairavi or a Hindolam "DRAGGY", is it the problem with the scale or with the perceiver ? :-) So so sad that fans like AJ and me loving songs like Namakame need to wait for years to get a golden songs like these from ARR. PLEAD TO ARR - there is no one else who can compose this breed of music. Please pay more attention to fans like us. Your music from your Jingle days and the 90s were purely around the carnatic expertise in you...why dont you come back to this realm???
