Echoes of the Maestro

Echoes of the Maestro – Song 77 – Thumbi Vaa Thumbakudathin

Thumbi Vaa is yet another popular song that became so popular and loved by Balu Mahendra that he used the tune in his Hindi film Auk Ek Prem Kahani, and his Telugu film Nireekshana. Director Balki re-used the song in his Hindi film Paa. I’ll add all the different variations of the song. It is such a beautiful song that I love Janaki Amma’s version even though Sangathil Paadadha Kavidhai is the version I first listened to.
