Same lyrics, different song!

Mollywood directors Padma Kumar’s Thiruvambady Thamban and B Unnikrishnan’s Grandmaster may still be under production, but people who have listened to the music of both these films point out that the two have one thing in common.
Both have a song called Aaraanu Nee. While the one in Thiruvambady Thamban is a melodious romantic number, the one in Grandmaster is a rock song.However, both the films — which will hit the screens at around the same time in two months — seem to be banking on their Aaraanu Nee. Taking it one step further is team Thiruvambady Thamban, which has already put up their song online. The number, sung by Swetha Mohan, made it to the virtual world last week and has over 15,000 hits. “It’s a pleasant love song. A good blend of western and Indian,” says Madhu Vasudevan, the lyricist of the song. The film’s music director Ouseppachan adds, “Whichever song is released first is considered as the original. Ours is already released. If the other team wants to avoid confusion, they could consider changing their lyrics.”
Meanwhile, Deepak Dev, music director of the Grandmaster, remains unperturbed. “This is pure coincidence. Ours is a rock number and so it’s quite different in treatment and look. It might be too early to say that the audience may get confused with these two songs. But if there is such a problem, we will probably add a line or two before Aaraanu Nee to ensure there is no room for confusion.”
