Writer from the days of ‘Heart Beats’ Thangali Nagaraj returns after a small gap to cinema lyrics from ‘Aa Karaala Raathri’.

A humble and simple writer with over 50 songs to his credit is unsung hero. He does not ask for chance with anyone. Some of the film lyrics he had written reached the heights in the music chart. In a changeover he is back with beard and looks like a ‘Yogi’.

For the film ‘Aa Karaala Rathri’ Thangali Nagaraj has written four songs for Ganesh Narayan music direction. The lines of Mankuthimmana Kagga of DVG are part of the one of the songs that Thangali Nagaraj has written. Director Dayal Padmanabhan has thrown a challenge to beat the level of DVG for Thangali Nagaraj. He humbly says he is not such a genius in writing.

Kalasipalya, Kaverinagara, Channa, Yogi, Nanda Nanditha, Sri Naga Shakthi, Thimma, Premnagar, Agraja and a few other popular films Thangali Nagaraj contributed lyrics. He has the habit of sitting for story and screenplay discussion. He has given many useful tips to various films from his perception.

Fifteen years in cinema field at lyricist, Thangali Nagaraj deserves more films and his sensitive writing deserves accolades.
