RE: [arr] Re: Interesting trivia question
Hi, I assumed most of us here would have already known about this, hence i did not elaborate on the old Kannuku. Sorry. And, ya... I was referring to the song that DD kept telecasting so often in the late 80s. Thanx bergin and sam 4 clearing this :) Bergin Roy wrote: Gopal, Guess you know this already... As far as I know, the lyrics was set to tune by MSV for a Mellisai in Doordarshan in those days. If i'm not wrong Jayachandran and Vani Jeyaram used to sing the song.
