2. The next song is 'Saranam Vijayasaraswathi' (Vijayasaraswathi - Adi). The composer Harikesanallur Muthiah Bhagavathar praises Lord Saraswathi as the bestower of boons and she is the goddess for arts.

3. Yet another Thyagaraja krithi 'Vandanamu' (Sahana - Adi) follows as the next piece. Thyagaraja questions Lord Rama that, is it the effect of his sin that He is not showering the grace upon him.

4. 'Bhajare Manasa' (Abheri - Adi) by Mysore Vasudevacharya is the next krithi in this side.

5. The beginning song is 'Nidhi Tsala' (Kalyani - Misrachapu) is composed by Thyagaraja. He explains that no other god is superior than Lord Rama.
