EN VEETU THOTHATHIL is pure Divine Majic. The Music & Arrangement in this song is top of the world. Seriously, TOP OF THE WORLD. I can keep hearing this song non-stop like the heart that beats inside us.
About your question, it is Veena. On top of Veena, I think AR has also used Jalatharangam (music played on bowls & is mostly used in hindustani classical music). Its a marriage of traditional Carnatic Classical & Hindustani Classical Music I would say :). Many Music Directors have used Veena many times but the sound of Veena when it comes from the Studios of AR, will even make every Goddess up there asking for more :). The best Veena piece till date is in the Leo Coffee ad :). Oh man, the ad starts with Veena and blends with tavil during the later parts. The genius who exactly knew how to package sound & tune. The genius who has used traditional instruments in a way that no one ever knew of. BTW, to end on a lighter note, I recently heard that for people who go to heaven is invited with AR's music & for those who go to hell is invited with Vijay Antony's music LOL. Jai HO AR !!!
