Kannan thumbi - Kakkothi kavile appooppan thaadikal (1988)
As way leads on to way...
I was reading the comments at eljo when one of the commenters brought up Revathy and her little brother being snatched away in a movie. It reminded me of a movie whose name I eventually dredged up from Google which led me to the youtube video of the song Kannan thumbi. Memories of yesteryear came flooding back I listened to the song with a brimming heart.
Kakkothi kavile appooppan thaadikal was one of those movies where "..the sufferings of the protagonist depicted on screen and the climax of the movie were too tragic for me to watch this movie more than once." It was up for grabs briefly on the malayalam movie streaming sites but I missed the opportunity to watch it again after 15 years. But I have listened to the song umpteen times in the last few days to make an arrangement for piano.
You have the main voice, the bass guitar, flute, violins and synthesiser parts in those three pages. What could be really fun is playing it with two others, one on either side of you playing the main voice. Enjoy this piece as I did : )

That was nice work done. Really appreciate it
This song is something very close to my heart, which i cannot express ...it gives me a feeling of being with my siblings ...
Those music notes are greek and latin but can try the flute score without notes ;)
Thanks shanks_p, a flautist in the fold! It's songs like these which after you hear them make you feel it's not enough just to hear it and hum it a couple of thousand times, but you want more, even after you think you've grown tired of it. It's that emotional attachment I suppose which is the similar to that in friendships, marriage and family.
Actually I got that wrong. It was Ambikas younger sibling who gets kidnapped and ends up with Revathy another kidnapping victim. But this song and that movies is etched in my memory forever!
