Hi venukailash. You seem to be choosing absolute masterpieces of IR.
Heard SPB say in a TV program that at the end of this song recording (in Mumbai) IR recieved a standing ovation from all musicians and members of the orchestra who claimed they seldom get to play such complex pieces!
Original key seems to be G# - according to youtube videos and IR's recent live show.
Your attempt should have been in G.

Sunda(G#)ri Kan(C#)naal Oru Sae(G#)thi
Solla(G#)di In(C#)naal Nalla Thaethi
Ennai(G#)yae Than(C#)dhaen Unakkaa(G#)ga
Jenma(G#)mae Kon(C#)daen Atharkaaga
(C#)Naan Unnai (Bbm)Neenga (Fm)Maattaen
(C#)Neenginaal (Bbm)Thoonga (G#)Maattaen
(Bbm)Saernthathey Naam (G#)Je(Bbm)eva(Eb)nae


(C#)Vaai Mozhintha Vaarthai Yaavum Kaatril Poanaal Nyaayamaa
Paai Virithu Paavai Paartha (C)Kaathal Inbam (Fm)Maayamaa
Aaah (C#)Vaal Pidithu Ninraal Kooda Nenjil Unthan Oorvalam
Poarkkalathil Saainthaal Kooda (C)Jeevan Unnai (Fm)Saernthidum
(C#)Thaenilavu Naan (G#)Vaazha (C#)Aen (C)Intha (C#)Sotha(Bbm)nai
(C#)Vaan Nilavai Nee (G#)Kaelu (C#)Koorum (C)En (C#)Vaethanai
Enai(G#)thaan An(C#)bae Maran(Bbm)thaa(G#)yo..
Mara(G#)ppaen En(C#)rae Ninaithaayo..

In G major it goes like this.
