Solla solla enna perumai is a mix of carnatic raga ( hindolam ) and western . IR experimented like this earlier with many songs . Another one was Sridevi en vazvil arul seyya vaa

IMHO, IR was the guy who craftily mixed western with carnatic

I am not sure if it was supposed to be a crafty mix of western and carnatic. IR was/is what he is due to all his influences which included western, traditional folk and Indian classical both Carnatic and Hindustani. I think this song was just his take on western dance music catering to the Tamil film audience, in which many of his influences played a part.
