Chennai. Rakshita is the runner-up, while wild-card entrant Malavika has

blockbuster Sivaji. It is followed by Sreekanth ("Oru Naal Podhuma"
song from Thiruvilayadal), Malavika ("Malargale Malargale" song from
Kadhalan), Sakthi ("Ennodu Nee Irundhaal" song from Ai), Rakshita

song).
In the second round, Malavika begun the procedings by singing
"Mannavan Vandanadi Thozhi" song from Thiruvarutchelvar, Anirudh sung
"Eedu Inai Namakku Yaethu" from Lava Kusaa, Sreekanth crooned "Anjali
