Janaka, you have already shared that song clip kindly with this network too. Think the song Chrishanthie mentions about is 'Hada Puraa - Rasa Nuraa'. Here is where the clip is.

Please rename the clip by the song name when possible. Many Thanks!

Hello Janaka,

Again I am commenting on the songs of the film "thana giravi " b'coz the film was shown on local TV last Saturday. Having listened to this song I made it a point to watch it. I was in for a very pleasant surprise as there is another amazingly lovely duet in the film, which I had not heard before. I audio recorded it, & will give it to u if u don't have it already. Jothi also acts a small role in the film, with Manik Kurukulasuriya.

Discovering these songs is like discovering glittering gems from the deep gem pits of Jothi's song collections. They are hard to find, invaluable, & will never lose their shine & glamor. I feel like an adventurer in search of ancient artifacts & feel so elated when I find a masterpiece. No one else can replicate them or copy them.

Thank u Janaka for this classical beauty. I've never heard it before. During Jothi's life time, so called veteran singers never recognized him as a singer of any worth, but was labeled as a පීචං ගායකයාNow they are all falling over each other to sing his praises. I wonder whether any other vocalist could have added so much passion & feeling to a song like this.
