Thanks to Maverick, else I wouldnt have known about this song. He has put this song as caller tune. And everytime I call him from landline, I get to listen to this. But if I call from mobile, that dog has set a vijayakanth song Amul Baby 
Anyways, coming back to the song. After a long time(Last Kamal movie in which music was good was Thenali) a nice romantic song for Kamalhassan. Nalla paatu. Nice lyrics. BTW it seems padhaagai means anxiety, according to my friend. Before listening to this song, I didnt know of this word. idhukku dhaan aga400 padikkanumgradhu

Nice song but I strongly object to the statement that after ‘Thenali’,no Kamal movie had good music.’Virumaandi’had mindblowing music which also suited the film’s background to a ‘T’.

Cinefan,
Absolutely. And though it was rejected by the public, the MX score was refreshing and great [The old genius Ilaiyaraaja experimenting with jazz!!!]
Infact, i would go one step further and say, Tenali itself had a very average score

dont u think the tune is picked from a christian prayer song
yesu pirandha re …
do u recognise it

Right !! The moment I heard this song thats what came to my mind. Though I couldn’t figure out the exact Christian prayer song, i could easily relate to it.

Btw, ‘paadhagai’ does not mean ‘anxiety’. idha pathi neraya thedi paathu onnum kandupidikka mudiyala. think pannadhula, i think it could be ‘padhagai’ which means kulam (lake) and BJ sings it as ‘paadhagai’ to fit in the tune.

kutti,
Actually if you observe the lyrics are disjointed. Thaamarai’s lyrics are good in bits and pieces. But overall there is no continuity
priya,
Cinefan,
Oops. How can I miss virumandi. Virumandi had amazing music!!!
Bala,
You are joking arent you? Thenali music is way ahead of Mumbai Express. Mumbai Express music was jarring and painful. Poo poothadhu was the only good song in the movie.
Dinesh,
I have never listened to a christian prayer song. But then MD is Harris Jayaraj. Inspiration illama avaraala music compose panna mudiyuma?
Maverick,
Aaandavanukku dhaan veLicham padhaagai appadina enna

i’ve hear it in lots of churches and also in some tamil programmes
ferrari
there is a difference between being inspired and taking it completely, harris picks tunes but changes the instrumentals and goes uncaught, but deva even when he lifts a backstreetboys number, he doesnt deviate even a bit, what sincearity in plagiarising
btw check out itwofs.com this site lists all inspired tamil songs

Padhagai means a Flag, do not know if it has another meaning!
ஓலையும் தூதரும் கண்டுதிண்டாடல் ஒழித்தெனக்குக்
காலையும் மாலையும் முன்னிற்குமே கந்தவேள் மருங்கில்
சேலையும் கட்டிய சீராவும் கையிற் சிவந்த செச்சை
மாலையும் சேவல் பதாகையும் தோகையும் வாகையுமே (கந்தர் அலங்காரம் 27)
– (கந்தன் அணிந்துள்ள செந்நிறமான வெட்சிமலர் மாலையும் சேவல் கொடியும், வெற்றிக்கு அறிகுறியான வேலும் எப்போதும் என் எதிரில் தோன்றிக் காட்சி தந்து நிற்கும்)
