2. Second Week’s Winner of the Contest: Archana Menon, Bangalore.
About the Song, From the Singer’s desk:
“I first heard this song from the movie ‘Swati Thirunal’ – a Malayalam movie about the life of King Swati Thirunal. In the movie it is sung by Arundhati and KJ Yesudas. I used to love listening to it, especially the part sung by Yesudas. The bhava here is ‘Shringara’. The song always has a soothing effect on me.
Another aspect is the lyrical beauty of the song, which is more like a poem in Sanskritised Malayalam.”
Congratulations Archana Menon!!!!
