Kaathalo Kathal Lyrics Meaning L. R. Eswari | T. M. Soundarajan | Thenkinnam

Kumaradevan contrasts care with desire. One lyric asks if flowers should soothe a loved one’s pain. Another directly questions when marital intimacy will occur. Both singers shift from playful teasing to earnest promises.
