One of poet Kannadasan's best songs is featured in the Indian Tamil movie Saradha (1962). The actors S.S. Rajendran (known as S.S.R) and Vijaya Kumari became husband and wife in real life. The entire song consists of a question-and-answer exchange between lovers.
In the beginning of the song, she asks, 'If a woman thinks about a man, what is the name of that relationship?' He replies, 'Love.' Then she asks, 'If that man marries that woman, then what is the name of that right?' He replies, 'Family.' Then she asks, 'If the man who thinks about her forgets her, then what is the end of that situation?' He replies, 'Sadness.' Then she asks, 'If they, who are split, become united again, then what is the state of that womanhood?' He replies, 'Silence.' The song continues like this, making it very interesting, joyful, and memorable.
The singers P. Susheela and P. B. Srinivas have done an excellent job bringing out the emotions of the lovers in their voices. K. V. Mahadevan's music also contributes significantly to this.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bzUv0io7mE&list=RD3bzUv0io7mE&start_radio=1
