P.SUSHILA SANG FOR SAVITHRI
Actress Savithri was one of the top-most heroines in the Tamil and Telugu film industry. She was one of the stars who retained her position as a heroine for almost 20 years which could be considered as a milestone in any actor’s career. During her time as a performer, she was awarded and honored with many apt titles like “Nadigayar thilakam” in tamil ( Foremost among actresses) and “Maha Nati” in telugu(“Great actress”).She was also one of the heroines who was respected and cherished by one and all in the southern film industry. It is believed that people held her with such awe that they were curious to just touch the chair in which she sat ! Until today, nobody has been able to fill Savithri’s position when it comes to acting skills in the entire south!
Savithri’s contemporaries like Anjali Devi, Bhanumati,Kannamba were a few actresses who found success in both tamil and telugu films. Actresses like Sarojadevi,Jayalalitha,K.R.Vijaya were reigning in the tamil film industry but had fewer films in telugu. Jamuna,Krishnakumari,Vanisree were very popular telugu film actresses but had less opportunity in tamil. However, Savithri’s career was well balanced and she was stable and successful in both the telugu and tamil film industry.
In this article we are going to discuss about “Padagiyar thilakam" P.Susheela (Foremost among singers)-“Nadigayar thilakam” Savithri combination in south Indian films.
In the early stages of Savithri’s career, it was P.Leela,Jikki or Rani who were main playback singers for her. Memorable hits during that period include songs from “Devadas” which was released in early fifties. After that, there was no looking back for Savithri.Other hits include songs from the telugu film “Donga Ramudu” like “chigurakulalo”(Jikki and ghantasala),”Ravoyi maa intiki(Jikki and R.Nageswara Rao). But PS had sung “Anuragamu virisena” for Jamuna the second lead character in the same movie. Savithri was so impressed by this rendition that she wanted PS to lend voice for all her numbers from then onwards and their successful combination continued and flourished for almost two decades or rather until savithri existed .I believe PS first number for savithri (as the main heroine) is for the film “Thodi kodallu” in telugu and also this was the film where PS’s successful transition from singing for second leads to primary heroine happened(if I am right). PS started singing for savithri from 1956 onwards. However, unitl the 1960’s P.Leela (Hits include “Oho megamaala”from Bhale ramudu, Pelli chesi choodu,Mayabazar etc in telugu),Jikki etc were lending their voice to savithri, but after that mostly it has been only PS. It is also believed that Savithri used to request producers to use PS voice in her films. She had such regard and respect for P.Susheela
If we take a look at the songs of PS-Savithri combination, each and every number is a priceless gem! Savithri’s roles in telugu and tamil films were all powerful and heroine centred where almost the whole movie was woven between her and the hero. She was known more for mature roles rather than for glamour - thereby requiring a powerful, dignified voice to suit her temperament and personality! In my opinion, if we consider PL or jikki for Savithri, true thay had a gambeeram in their voice but somehow their voice lacked sweetness and clarity and was less melodious when compared to PS.
PS ‘s voice and Savithri’s acting blended together like -------------------(viewers may imagine their own !). It will actually appear like Savithri has rendered the song herself and every sangathi and bhavas that PS expressed would be understood and emoted by her! What an actress!!!!! What a singer!!!!!!!! Perhaps we can call PS-Savithri - a harmonious fusion of perfect singing and perfect acting!
Let’s talk about a few haunting melodies in tamil and telugu here:
Who can forget the song “then unnum vandu” (PS,A.M.Raja) (1956) and “Kann Moodum vellaiyilum” from MAhadevi(1956). PS voice had a velvet touch and Savithri’s blemishless face(full of purity and peace) and expressions added to the beauty of the song! Even after 58 years, one can still admire the freshness in this song! The telugu version of “Mahadevi” had many songs by PS.”Kaka kaka mai konda, Singara punagai(singaramula nine), “Sevai saivadhe anandam” were all rendered by PS.
( Then unnum vandu - Amara deepam )
Also we cannot forget the wonderful songs composed by “Isai MEdhai”G.Ramanathan for the tamil movie “Vanangamudi”. “Vazhvinile vazhvinile” a gentle breeze like number by PS-A.M.Raja ,and wonderful acting by the two superstars Savithri, Sivaji makes this an evergreen pick! The semi- classic set in todi raga”ennai pol pennalavo” by PS and PS-TMS number “Mohana punnagai” “Paagudan thenum”(an example of G.Ramanathan’s extraordinary composing and quality),”MAlaye Un vilai” by PS-sirkhazi are all some beautiful numbers to recollect! Savithri’s acting prowess and PS’s singing makes these songs ever-watchable and memorable! If you haven’t heard them yet, kindly allot some time to probe these numbers…….
( aagaya veedhilyil - manjal mahimai )
Annaiyin Aanai movie had an excellent dream song “Kanavin Maaya logathile” which would really transport us to magical worlds! Manjal Mahimai(Mangalya balam int elugu) had super hits like “Aagayaveedhiyil”(AAkasa veedhilo”) and “Maaradha sogam thano”(Penucheekati”in telugu),Kodai Marainthal (Vaadina poole vikasinchane) and "idhu enna aanandhamo" under this combination. The 50’-60s era had many wonderful stalwart MD’s like S.Rajeswara Rao, Master Venu, Pendyala, Adi NArayana rao, Ghantasala who were able to deliver hits after hits with PS.
1950’s also had beautiful numbers like “Niraiveruma ennam niraiveruma” from the movie “Kathavarayan” and “Chinnan chiru kann malar (an ever haunting lullaby by PS), “Ambigai muthu mariyamma” “Irai podum manitharuke” from the movie “Pathi bhakthi” all under MD Ramanathan. Who can forget the song “Aha naapelliyanta” sung by PS for the mischevious Savithri (disguise role of ghatokacha ) in the movie “Maya bazar”. Sung in a more lighter vein, this song is a super hit among the masses because of Savithri’s best performance as a comedian.
1960’s can be regarded as a golden era and this period had many successful films of Savithri –PS combination.
Kalathoor kannamma had precious numbers like “Aadatha manamum aaduthe”,”Kangalli vaarthaigal puriyatho” .Paasa malar(Raktha sambandham in telugu) can be considered as a jewel in the crown for this duo. Wow, who can forget “Malarndum malaradha”(" Chanduruni minchu" in telugu),”Mayangugiral oru maadhu”, “yaaryaar yaaral yaaro ”(Neeli kanula needala int elugu (different tune used by ghantasala) and Engallukumm kaalam varum (MAnchi rojulu vachu in telugu) are all masterpieces ! Especially the last number(Savithri-PS purity and innocence ) certainly brings hope and happiness to people who are yet to stabilize their lives. Other songs include numbers from movies like “Anbu magan”,Thooya ullam”,Pataliyin vetri” etc.
1961 had memorable songs like “Kaatruveliyidai kannamma” (PS-PBS) from the movie “Kappal otiya thamizhan”! PS’s melodious voice – her hummings, wow! and Savithri’s brilliant performance makes us totally stupefied! A total treat !!!!!!!!!!! This song is an example of how songs should be made –with certain standard in terms of lyrics, tune(set by Ramanathan) and brilliant acting (Savithri-Gemini).( In order to prove their versatility some singers try to give unwanted and unnecessary expressions (claiming to be bhavam or whatever) which makes it totally irritating for the listeners). But top quality singers know where and how to control their expressions and render it accordingly to make it a pleasant experience!).One more number is “Chinna kuzhandaigal pol vilayadi” from the same movie. Paava Manippu(Paapa pariharam int elugu) had another amazing super- duper hit number “athaan En athaan” which received laurels from notable singers like Lata, Asha,Yesudas etc. 
1962 had songs like “Idhazh mottu virinthida” from the movie “Bandha paasam” (PS,PBS) and “Valarntha kalai maranthu vittal”( song expressed through a messenger kind of situation),”kaatru vanthal thalai saayum”,”Vaa enradhu uruvam” from Kaathurindha kangal which became hits.Paarthal pasi theerum had excellent numbers like “Andru oomai pennalo”(this song had 2 situations-first version has Savithri in a childlike manner learning tamil and for every alphabet she gives a unique expression only known to her!, otherversion is a sad one) . Other hit numbers include “athai magane poi varava”,”Yettuaduku maaligaiyi;”( the whole expression and situation is conveyed in PS’s voice),”Unadhumalar kodiyile” “KAdhal enbadhu edhuvarai” etc from padha kanikai. VAdivukku valaikapu had numbers like “Salai oram puliyamaram”,”Nilladiyo nilladiyo”,"Seerulavum inba nadham", "chillena poothu sirikkintra" etc.
Tidbit: Konjum salangai movie had a song sung by PS (konjum salangai oli kettu")..However the version by PL was used in the movie
Let’s look at the hits between 1963-1974 in tamil: "aayiram iravugal varuvathundu" , "pakkathu veetu paruva machan" from karpagam , ennuyir thozhi (one of the superb hit under PS-MSV combination) and "manjal mugam niram maari "from karnan, Navarathri movie numbers like Navarathi subha rathri "Sollava kadhai sollava", "thanga jarigai selai" (a totally different folk number played on streets( therukoothu), songs from vettaiakaran like “Manjal mugame varuga", "methuvaa methuvaa thodalaama" " en kannaukkethanai koyilo" etc.
Some notable hits are Paarthalum paarthen, aanaka antha madam (aayiram rubai), ilamai koluvirukkum (hello mr zamindar), maiyenthum vizhi aada, unnai oor kodnu azhaikka (poojaikku vantha malar), neela selai kattikkonda, deva mahadeva ( thiruvilaiyaadal), paaradi kanne konjam (vallavanukku vallavan), komatha engal kulamatha (saraswathi sabatham), kalyaana panthal alangaram, oor paadum thalattu (thattungal thirakkappadum), solla solla inikkuthada (kandan karunai), "kaviyathin thalaivan ramanadi" (seetha). aadhi sivan thaaz panindhu (thiruvarut chelvar), Sontham eppodhum, santhanathil nalla vaasam eduthu (praptham) etc..

Let’s have a glance at some of PS-Savithri telugu hits : Savithri was offered a role in ‘Agni Pariksha’ in 1949. Then, she was selected for the lead role in the film Samsaram by the banner ‘Sadhana Chitra’ in 1950. However, she was replaced by Pushpavalli and was given a small role, with Nageswara Rao. She performed a dance in Pathala Bhairavi in 1951. Her first big role was as a second lead actress Pelli Chesi Choodu by L. V. Prasad in 1952. She later acted in Telugu films including Chandra Haram (1953), Devadasu (1953), Ardhangi (1955), Missamma (1955)(PS sang for the second heroine Jamuan in this movie), Donga Ramudu (1955) (PS sang for Jamuna while Jikki was the lead singer), Todikodallu (1957)( PS became the lead singer for Savithri from this movie “Todi kodallu ( “Aaduthu paaduthu” by PS,ghantasala MD: Master Venu), though she sang a few numbers for her in movies like Kanya sulkam, Bhale ammayilu, mayabazar etc.
Mayabazaar (1957)(Aha naa pelliyanta –PS, MD: GS), Abhimanam (1958)(Ooyala oogi naa hrudayam by PS-Ghantasala,MD: GS)), Mangalya Balam (1958) had some memorable hits like “Aakasa veedhilo(PS,GS),Vaadina poole (PS,GS), penu cheekati(PS,GS), "Teliyani aanandham (PS)", Sri Venkateswara Mahatyam (1960) had excellent numbers under PS-Savithri combination like “yevaro thana evaro", "Kalaga kammani kalaga", (Savithri as Padmavathi Devi and NTR as Lord Srinivasa mesmerized the viewers with their dignified performance while PS,GS contributed towards the musical side under MD pendyala making it one of the memorable movies of all times) .
Manchi Manasulu (1961) was one of the musical hits under MD KVM- PS-savithri combination , songs like “Yemandoi srivaru(PS (who can forget savithri in this song ), Nannu vadhali neevu polevu (PS,GS) , Aradhana (1962) had beautiful solo numbers for savithri under MD S.Rajeswara Rao like “Neechelimi”, Vennelaloni vikasame”, Gundamma Katha (1962 was one of the super duper musical hits of all times had wonderful numbers for savithri like “Aligina velane choodali (PS), “Kolo kolo yenna”(PS humming is simply marvellous in this duet with GS) under MD Ghantasala. Another great movie which was a big musical hit Mooga Manasulu (1963) was another PS-KVM-Savithri combination had hits like “Naa paata nee”, Eenati ee bandham(PS,GS), Doctor Chakravarthy (1964),another super hit musical film had several hits like “Neevu leka veena” (PS), Nijamcheppave pilla(PS,Vasantha),Paadamani (PS), Poojaphalam (1964) had classic solo numbers from PS like “Edhi challani vellaina”, “Yendu dagi unnavo”, “Andhena ee chethula” under MD SRR, Devatha (1965) another great musical hit had excellent compositions like ‘tholi valape” (PS,GS), “kannulo missamissalu” (PS,GS) for MD S.P.Kothandapani, Pandava Vanavasam (1965), contains an evergreen classic number “Himagirisogasulu” by PS,Ghantasala (MD: GS), Naadi Aada Janme – AVM movie had wonderful numbers under PS –Savithri combination (who can ever enact her role in this movie – songs like “Kannaiah nallani kannaiah”, “chinnari ponnari puvvu” under MD Sudarsanam Govardhanam), Chaduvukunna ammayilu had great hits like “Vinnipinchani raagale”(PS,GS), “Okate hrudyam kosamu(PS,GS) under MD SRR. Manase Mandiram (remake of nenjil oru aalayam) though a failure at box office had some memorable numbers (like "annadi neevena") of PS for savithri.
PS –Savithri’s combination in the late 70’s include movies like Gorintaaku (“Gorinta poosindhi komma) when Savithri started acting in elderly roles.
When we take a look at the movie lists and the songs which are an outcome of PS –Savithri combination, we can come to a conclusion that this golden era of music (or acting) perhaps could never repeat itself ever in the present or future!
