Oru chinna doubt...

I was listening to this song "Yaaridamum thondravillai idhupol" from "Thotti Jaya". Of late Harris Jayaraj has been experimenting by using more than 2 voices for the same person in the same song. "Uyire en uyire" from the same movie is an excellent example where Anuradha sriram and bombay Jayashree give their voice to the heroine.

So, coming to the song in question, at approximately 3:46 from the beginning, (the second charanam), I had the doubt. Harini is the one who has been credited for the song. But carefully listen to the song at 3.46 when the word "Munnooraandu ondrai" comes. I am almost sure that "Munnoorandu" is that of Bombay Jayashree's voice. The word "Ondrai" is started by Bombay Jayashree but closes with Harini's voice (excellent belnding by HJ).

Probably HJ had it recorded in different tracks and may be the story was like this.
He first had BJ sing the song and then mixed her track and Ramesh vinayagam's track. Then probably felt it wud be better with Harini's voice...Had Harini sing in a separate track...Superimposed it in the already merged track and probably made a merging error...

Anyways I found this amusing enough. Can you people also listen to it and update me with your analysis...
