The most ever popular song in Carnatic is Tyagaraja's Vandanamu. One of the best rendition of the song is by Dr.Bala Murali Krishna. I heard it 10 years ago first when one of my friend - KSVS Kumar from Rajamundry - had a cassette filled with Bala Murali's songs and one of it was this gem. The same song I also heard Bombay Jayashree singing 6 years ago.
I have heard few songs in movies that used Sahana like
- Paarthen... Rasithen... from an old movie
- Anbe Sugama... by AR Rehman from the movie Paarthaale Paravasam
You should hear this raaga to appreciate. Try the movie songs in raaga.com or do a search for sahana in musicindiaonline.com and you can hear.
Update: I forgot the famous Papanasam Sivan Kriti on Sahan "Chitham Irangadhadhu Enayya". Great composition!

Hi,
itz
Parthen sirithen pakkam vara frm(Veera Abhimanyu). 1 of ma fav too.
"thenkizhakku cheemayile" from the movie kizhakku chemayile music by AR Rahman is also a very good folk song based on Sahana.
And there is that guitar interlude in the song July Matham VanthAl (Pudhiya Mugam) that's a beauty in Sahana.
