Magic in Tunes – Manchu Kurise Velalo

For all songs in this series, go here

This song is from 1988 Indian Telugu-language musical romantic film Abhinandana (= Commendation). It was later dubbed into Tamil as Kaadhal Geetham and remade in Kannada as Abhinandane (2005).

Music was composed by Ilayaraaja to the Lyrics penned by Acharya Aatreya. Several of Ilayaraja songs from his previous movies were used in this movie. I love almost every song in this movie. This song was reused from “Andharangam Yaavume” from Tamil movie Aayiram Nilave Vaa (1983). Sung by S. P. Balasubrahmanyam and S. Janaki.
