Song: Roja Poo Ondru
Composer: Kannan
Singer: SPB, Chitra
Lyrics: Karky
Movie: Rendavadhu Padam
This is a retro song tuned by composer Kannan in the Ilaiyaraja genre with the typical instruments that Raja would use for such a duet song. It starts with beautiful male vocal harmonies (quite rare as many vocal harmonies are female ones owing to the mellowness of the female voice) and followed by a strings piece and SPB launches into the song with gusto. The first interlude is primarily saxophone, strings and Veena and Chitra joins SPB in the charanam. The second interlude has wonderful female harmonies, followed by a poignant violin piece followed by an energetic nadhaswaram piece leading into the 2nd charanam where the composer adds a tabla instead of the rhythm programming. This is all-in-all a competent melody song that Kannan can be proud of.
