"Paadhi Kaadhal" - Refreshing song

My first music post in a while. And this song from Modhi Vilaiyaadu (Music by Hari and Leslie) is really worth it. Strikingly similar in its core and interestingly even in part of its orchestration to "PorkkaLamaa, thee kuLamaa" a.k.a Oneness by RR - (Subbu will remember it as one of the songs of our PGP1 days in IIMB. ), this song is intriguing, catchy, classy and involved at once. Sunitha Sarathy and Jayashree in one song was the USP which led me to download the song uninitiated, and man - are they a combination or what! Jayashree is seen singing full throated for a change - after the irritatingly monotonous usage by Harris Jayaraj. The percussions of the thavul when Sunitha is crooning away is really a novelty... What an exciting song, that keeps changing till its end... Enough to make this the most interesting song of the year so far. It's interesting how both singers stick to their strengths in the same song and make it click!
I dont want to post MP3 links here - but check the song out. Its available everywhere.
