This song and its picturisation was a topic of debate 16 years back :) But lyrics … Man, JUST AWESOME LYRICS…

If Kannadhasan is a genius, Vaali is a genius too. Only that with Vaali, you should be careful what you ask, for you might get it:)

Vaali is the wal-mart of Tamil lyricists.

Hey , just wanted to give some good romantic lyrics for the holiday season:)

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL OF YOU!

    PK,
    Yeah, Vaali is an awesome poet, who rules even today.!

    My tamil knowledge is limited..but my brother Ganesh came back from India recently with a big load of books by Vaali.!!

    Whenever I talk to him..he mentions stories from those books…some of which are fascinating.

    The song that you’ve written about ed is a great example of ‘Vaali’s’ undebatable poetic skills.!

    But…IMHO..he is not a Wal-Mart..!! He is a Macy’s among today’s K-Marts and Wal-Marts!!
