Hello Balaji...

Using Karnatic based songs in Devotional Movies (Puraana padangal / Bakthi padangal) is no need to discuss, like Thiruvilaiyaadal, Sraswathi Sabatham, Dheivam, Thiruvarul...etc. Because they all based in Karnatic only.

But karnatic based songs in social movies are somewhat interesting. For example:

"Manamey muruganin mayil vaaganam"....by MSV ( Motor Sundaram Pillai)

"Raagavane Ramanaa Ragunaathaa"...Ilaiyaraja (Ilamai kaalangal)

"Kannodu kaanbathellaam"..... ARRahman (Jeans)

I dont which ragas these songs belongs to, I am not that much familer in ragas.
