One of the most lovable songs that I have heard in times is 'Aval Appadi Ondrum Azhagillai'..This song goes to say how the protaganist thinks his beloved is not so beautiful, is not very fair but how he adores her. Nice lyrics from my favorite Naa. Muthukumar and sung neatly by Karthik. This song is based on Kalyani raaga and is a beautiful melody.

What so stumbled me was that there exists another melody, in hindi though, the theme of which is very similar to 'Aval appadi'. This other song is from 'Papa Kahte hain' that starts with 'Ghar se nikalte hi'..I particularly recollect the lines

"Naa apsara hai, naa woh pari hai", which means "She is not a divine beauty, nor an Angel she is.."

What else can you ask for - this song is based on the raaga Kalyaan (the hindustani equivalent of kalyani) too!
