Yen Aasai..Yen Aasai.. Naana Solven..? Yen Aasai Naana Solven.?
Yen Aasai Neeye Sonnaal..... Kannaale Aamam Yenbene....

Thank You Shreya Goshal!!!

Another ARR magic!!!! 
Another Maniratnam Signature Song!!! Well picturised, in a simply much better way to say " Absence makes the Heart grow fonder".
Another Diamond from Kaviperarasu. Vairamuthu!!!! I give it to you Vairamuthu Sir!!! 
How subtle? Only you can do it. Passion!!! Passion at its best, can't be brought into words better than this in this context. 
Ummai Enni Ummai Enni Oomai kangal thoongaathu!
Oomai Kangal- The Dumb Eyes won't sleep thinking about you... Wow!!! Vairamuthu Sir!!! I'll vouch it anywhere. Perfect usage of words. 
The lyricist/poet still adds beauty to this, when he says, ie., when the character says, 
Yen Aasai..Yen Aasai.. Naana Solven..? Yen Aasai Naana Solven.?
Yen Aasai Neeye Sonnaal..... Kannaale Aamam Yenbene....

Will I say my desire? or
How can I say my desire?
If you say my desire
I'll say Yes by my eyes...

Lovely!!! Thats too good Vairamuthu Sir!!!

Eyes remaining dumb/unspoken and sleepless at one place and Saying Yes at another. Thats the beauty of a language and the inspiration you gain after reading lots and lots of literature in your language. The song still gets polished and goes near to the feel of the character at its pinnacle, when she says,.   
Vaaram thorum azhagin baaram koodum koodum kuraiyaathu!!! 
......Azhagin Baaram...OMG!!! 
How better to describe the pain of separation ? 
Simply mesmerising in a much much more mesmerising voice of Shreya Goshal....
Can't move on to the next song....

Had a curiosity to know, how best it is delivered in Hindi. It's of a different genre. Different similes used. May be, its not my cup of tea after listening to Vairamuthu Sir. The Hindi version is focussed describing more of her, like.. Khile re.. the jasmine is blooming it says... A different metaphor. Gulzarji's lyrics. I am not superior to comment on his. But, How you perceive the song situation in the movie; the version of the movie as such, matters. What I personally felt after listening to both the versions is, there is a lot of difference between, saying, "Come" and asking "Will you ?". That's where Vairamuthu Sir overpowers/take over Gulzarji. Yes! Even, Vairamuthu Sir has written certain intimate lines like Kai kondu paareero, but immediately he compensated it with " Kan kondu sereero". Thats where your mastering the subject/language is known. Thats really amazing. The way Vairamuthu Sir expressed it in such a subtle manner....God!!! Its awesome!!!! Just loved the way, he handled the lines .....Kalaiveero and.....Aniveero. The song is so delicate that at any point, it may slip from the hand, but the way he handled the minute line that demarcates passion, Hats off! Vairamuthu Sir!!!
His way of starting a question taking the language to his assistance at " Vali migum idangal; Vali migaa idangal Thamizhukku therigirathey" is... only he can do that. Language and Passion going hand in hand. Language substituting Passion in a beautiful manner.  Let many more lyricists come every day, Still, You're outstanding Vairamuthu Sir. 

Special Thanks to Shreaya Goshal for the perfect pronunciation. Thank You Shreya for the ThamiZHUkku therigirathey and ThangaLUkku therigirathaa.  For using all "la, La, Zha" in one line without any confusion. Special appreciation for learning Tamil very sincerely and singing very properly. Vairamuthu Sir would have been very happy after lsitening to this. Thanks yaar. You've justified your role. Great rendition!!!

And Not to forget mentioning the first interlude that gets you offguard. That humming is just amazing Rahman Sir!!! Just love this song.....!!! Just another great song makes us yearn for the much missing soul in Rahman Sir's songs nowadays.

Finally, I love the song also for the way it begins with, Kalvare! Kalvare! Kan pugum Kalvare! Calling a Police man as a respected thief...love it!!!

Ash n Prithvi!!!! The Bold n Beautiful N' the Hot n Handsome!!! Before watching the song, I always had a doubt that whether Prithvi will appear too young for Ash, as it is. But the onscreen chemistry is...great as the actors are!!!
