Usually I don't listen to (old)songs, while listening to this song, created huge curiosity, so I kept searching and figured the story around this song,

A twin sisters who get separated at birth due to poverty. One (♀1) is brought up by a wealthy while the other (♀2) by the mother. A doctor (Gemini) comes to treat the ailing mother, and the mother's daughter falls in love with him, of which the doctor is unaware. On her deathbed, the mother reveals to her daughter the existence of the twin. The young woman goes in search of her sister and by sheer chance, both travel in the same train. The train has an accident and the wealthy sister loses her memory and is presumed dead. Complications arise with the doctor marrying the other twin assuming she’s the wealthy one. A child is born and the wealthy twin turns up.

Very interesting story design. Now I got the meaning of the songs, which was mysterious to me earlier,

  • காதல் சொன்ன பெண்ணை இன்று காணோமே கண்ணா - Meant the ♀1
  • காட்டியவள் மாறிவிட்டாள் - ♀1 -> ♀2
  • காதலி தான் மனைவியென்று கூறடா கண்ணனா - ♀2 says that the original love ultimately became materialized.
  • மனதில் அன்றே எழுதி வைத்தேன் , தெரியுமா கண்ணா , அதை மறுபடியும் எழுத சொன்னால் முடியுமா கண்ணா - ♀2 indirectly says that, oh idiot!, I fell in love with you way back. I can't do that again and again.
  • நினைப்பதெல்லாம் வெளியில் சொல்ல முடியுமா கண்ணா - ♀2 continues to hide the fact that she was in love earlier time, which she is now unable to express. (I see ♀2 struggling between her love and respect with her sister)
  • அவரில்லாது எனக்கு வேறு யாரடா கண்ணா - ♀2 just left the self-ego and removed the ego of Gemini (and the destroyed the audience ) in one word. Very powerful line.

Just a mesmerizing and meaningful song. Basically the song is written along with the story. This pattern is significantly missing now a days.
