The songs "Ezhu Swarangalukkul" and "Kelviyin Nayagane" made her popularity soar to heights and she became known as the singer who would always get selected to sing difficult compositions. She was flooded with singing offers from all the top rated music composers including M. S. Viswanathan, [[Kunnakkudi Vaidyanathan]], Sankar Ganesh, [[V. Kumar]], [[K. V. Mahadevan]], [[G. K.
