Mugangal


Mugangal is a 2002 Tamil-language album performed by Anita Udeep and composed by Mahesh Shankar.

Production

While studying for her master's in the United States, Anita Udeep sang "Kaadhal", which was composed by her college mate Mahesh Shankar, to her parents for their 25th wedding anniversary. Their appreciation for the song prompted Udeep and Shankar to create the album Mugangal.
The album comprises six songs, each relating to a different emotion that you experience throughout life. "Kaadhal" is about a girl lost in the thought of love while "Inbam" is about a girl who finds pleasure in the little things in life. The songs contrasted each other with "Kaadhal" having a Carnatic rhythm with violin and mrindangam while "Pidivatham" appealed to the younger generation.

Reception and legacy

According to Udeep, the album did "pretty well". The song "Inbam" was reused in the first season of The [Family Man (Indian TV series)|The Family Man].
