Netrikann and Mouna ragam

Through some friend or when i searched internet, i found one link* which says there is a similarity between BGM of Netrikann (1981) scene ( where son rajini challenges father rajini) and Mouna ragam (1986) theme BGM and I do find similarity between those two. Also some says that there is some english song from which Ilayaraja had inspired these BGMs.

In netrikann i guess, people have only seen the superstar and story, not the BGMs. Isaigynai is great from those days !!! Though netrikann is a hit, this theme music became so popular only after Mouna ragam. Dont know what made maestro to use the BGM of that scene (which he had composed 5 years prior to mounaragam) as the theme music of Mounaragam. Anyways, thanks to him, it didnt get lost some where and we have got a wonderful music.

Netrikann - Father & Son Rajini



Mounaragam - Revathy & Karthick (It has two themes, me talking about the first one, not the karthick BGM)



* am not able to find that link now :( and also thanks to that unkown person who had posted this details in that link
