Nice song!
Click here to watch the song.
This Malayalam song, picha vecha naal is the one that I have been listening to, for the past 3 days. I have been hooked to a new song after a long time! Though this song, which seems to be based on many raagas, reminds one of so many other songs, yet there is something haunting about it. Soft, soothing & melodious! Shankar Mahadevan’s singing is the biggest plus of it. My most favourite part in the entire song is the humming at 2:38. The female singer, whoever she is, does just the humming in the entire song, yet her humming followed by that haunting dhirana dhirana & the swarams NDPM RMRP NDSNDMP sung by Shankar Mahadevan turns out to be the best part of the song!
The visual is full of vibrant colours and that’s what makes it good too.
P.S.: Thanks to Sreekrishnan for the link!

To me it seemed to have shades of ritigowlai but mixed with other- some abheri/s.dhanyasi Nice. Perhaps it is something like srmpns/sndmpmgrs. The pns with da => abheri/s.dhanyasi and the sndm + pmgrs => r.gowlai.
Thanks!

Its an excellent song. I cant find the raagam because it has a mixture of Reethigoulai and other raagaas. Its starts something like….. SRPMP,PPP. Not very much like reethiguolai. Its very melodious and nice to listen .
Thanks,
Shradha

Sreekrishnan,
Yup
Aravind,
True. But I wish he stops singing all those gaana songs
Ashwin,
Oh. I didn’t even there’s a song like this. This is the first Malayalam song that I am listening to after a looong time.
Arun,
Thanks for the raagas! Reetigowlai was the only raaga I could identify in it.
Shradha,
