It has come in a Malayalam daily 14th January 2007 "Malayala Manorama" Sunday edition. Song: Velli then kinnam Film:"Penpada" Director: Cross Belt Mani Music: R.K.Shekar (Arr's Father) Lyrics: Bharanikaavu Shivkumar Singer: Jayachandran Year: 1975 Actors: Vincent & VijayLalitha Transaltion It so happened, 30 years ago one afternoon in kodambakkom at R.K Shekars home were composing for Director's Cross Belt Mani new film "Penpada". They composed three songs and they were working on the fourth song when a.s dileep kumar(arr) came from outside after playing cricket. He was in full dirt wearing nicker and sleeveless baniyan. He straight away went and began to play the harmonium. One tune he played. The lyricist was amazed by his ability. He liked the tune and asked him to play it once more. His father came to hear this .Father asked lyricist to pen the lyrics for this tune. He asked his son whether he could also tune the remaining part; rahman with his little knowledge somehow completed the remaining part as he knows. Later without much changes R.K Shekar with some polishing made the song. Thus the song of RAHMAN was created. Later this song became HIT. Then the sudden demise of the father left the family in poverty. He came to assist M.K Arjunan another leading Music director @ 9 years. Then at 11 he came into the troup of Ilayaraja. The fatal illness of his sister and the recovery from it by the help of Peer Mohamed, a sufi saint made him and family convert to ISLAM. He came into the field of jingles in which he was instant hit. Meeting with Mani Rathnam changed his life in 1991. He got his break in Roja and in the same year Yodha also got released. Then there was no looking back and the rest is History . http://arrahmaniac.blogspot.com --------------------------------- Finding fabulous fares is fun. Let Yahoo!
