The main Jathis were sung by Thumba Raja. He mentioned this in a recent interview in Rahmania show. ARR's voice may be there in the song, but "Raja" referred to in the cassettes is Thumba Raja. Rahman's name doesnt appear in the casettes if it is just small bits of backing vocals (like he sang a small bit on Oruvan oruvan interlude, but his name wasn't in the casettes). This song must be a similar case.

We are talking about 10+ yrs before, unless they carried wrong information.
