There are some songs that we could never get tired of listening to. "Thaliritta kinakkal than... ," from the film `Moodupadam,' is one of them. An appreciative audience at the Tagore Centenary Hall in Kozhikode listened in rapt attention when Sithara Krishnakumar sang it on Monday night. The local lass did a pretty good job too. The song was one of the highlights of a musical evening presented by the Bankmen's Club as a homage to composers G. Devarajan, M.S. Baburaj, Salil Choudhury, Raveendran, M.B. Sreenivasan, Pukazhenthi, Job, L.P.R. Varma, R.K. Shekhar, A.T. Ummar, K.V. Mahadevan and Noushad Ali, who have left behind them many unforgettable melodies for Malayalis. Besides Sithara, the other singers of the evening were Sudeep Kumar, Elizabeth Raju, Wil Swaraj and Nishad. All of them deserved the loud applause they often got from the audience. "Ujjayiniyile gayika... " (composed by Devarajan for `Kadalpalam'), "Thane thirinjum... '' (Baburaj, `Ambalapravu'), "Alliyambal kadavil... " (Job, `Rosie'), "Upasana... " (L.P.R. Varma, `Thottavadi'), "Thamarapoo... " (R.K. Sekhar, `Taxicar'), "Oru vattom koodi... " (M.B. Sreenivasan, `Chillu') and "Harimuraleeravam... " (`Aram Thampuran', Raveendran) were some of the songs presented on the show. It certainly was an evening to remember, which ended with Sudeep, Nishad, Sithara and Elizabeth coming together to sing one of the many immortal songs created by the combined geniuses of Vayalar, Devarajan and Yesudas - "Chandrakalabham... " (`Kottaram Vilkanundu'). And it was a show the Bankmen's Club could be proud of.
