Masterstroke!

Maniratnam is a legend for many obvious reasons.For me,one reason is strong enough:

"Mandram vandha thendraluku","Thenpandi Cheemayile","Kaatu kuyilu","Raakamma kayya thattu","Raaja raajadhi rajan","Ninnukori varnam","Nee oru kadhal sangeetham","Sundari kannal oru seidhi","Anjali Anjali","Yamunai Aatrile","Chinna thaiyaval","Nilave vaa","Motta maadi","Veetuku veedu","Pallavi anu pallavi theme"-A master keeps coming up with his very best for Mani everytime but what does Mani do?He forsakes Raja for a 25 year old composer known for his ad jingles and the rest is more than mere history!

Thank you Mani sir for a gift worth the weight of 2 Oscar statuettes and a billion hearts!

Happy birthday Mani Sir!
