Beautiful Tamil son (a short glance)

Weekly there would be an audio release of some films, but sometimes only their were huge fans waiting(like me) and that album was expected in a manner. Azhagiya Tamilzh Magan is the year’s best songs holder. Curious is the Vijay, Rahman combination to a beautifully named film where listeners can sing for sure. It’s A.R.Rahman’s second attempt in Tamil this year, after the grand success of Shivaji. After listing the album I felt the release must be done near pongal times where it has something related to Tamils famous and traditions. This film has VIJAY and SHRIYA as Tamil magan and magal (hero and heroine). Here we look short things about the album.

Ellappugazhum… an unusual open song for Vijay. "Munnal Munnal vaada unnal Mudiyum thozhaa (Come forward, you can do it friend); Ellapugazum oruvankea ne nathipola odikonderu (all praise are for one, u just run continuously like river); anbu thalaiva vetri nameke azhagiya tamil magan neethane (dear leader, victory for us, you are the beautiful tamil son)" where some inspiring lines from Vaali is a attracting song for the film. Rahman singed it, where it was the vaali`s song he is singed after New York nagaram and Athiradi kaaran. Especially this song doesn’t carry the useless and stupid lyrics what disappoint in all Vijay’s intro song.

Ponmagal Vandaal... is an remix, but I feel its recreation. Because only taking the lyrics, they used a fabulous vocal from aslam a new singer. I kept listening to his section much and the rap track in between was too good, if it comes alone could well attract, but I feel it didn’t combine with the super hit classic. I like more the beats behind the classic ponmagal vandal porul codi thanthaal….

There are some stylish lyrics by na.muthukumar! in Nee Marilyn Monroe cloning ha…. Jenifer lopes Oda scanning’a... In first time listening itself we can guess it`s a hot song by actress namitha and I thought it was sung by rahman through the song trailer in some place, but really it was singed by benny dayal and ujjayinee, a rocking voice. More cool and colorful the lines came out where it goes like ”Can u come as my girlfriend for a day, Saturday night, can we go to a party are u coming; women’s are the cricket, men`s are the wicket.”

To add beauty to the album Valayappatti tavilla... has a traditional touch. It’s totally opposite to nee Marilyn Monroe... from na.muthukumar. "Nee nathaswaram pola vantha navikkamalam nana, nee yealu swaram pola vantha etta swaram nana...; un kangal erandum kalyani,un sirippo sindhu bhairavi ..." it fully mixes with varies instruments and classic ragas. Vocal is simple excellent Naresh Iyer, madhumitha makes the song adorable. "Peasumbothea chillunuthea unga Oru enna Cherrapunjiya, Nee nerungum pothea current earuthea unga Oru Kalpakkama, nee harmoniya kattaiemma, en hormone seaiethu seataiemma…" those are some lifts the song.

Kelamal kaiyile… in Thamarai lyrics and by Sriram parthasarathy, saindhavi’s voice. It somehow sound like a familiar old song was remixed. Saindhavi sounds sweet in some places, where she improved well from Andankakka and Ippo ilatti eppo. "Malugai melugai naan irunthean, miga ealithai en mun nadanthean indru unnai nenjil sumantheana naan nadanthean nadanthathum vilunthean , Kunthal ennum yeani yeari mutham mida asaigal undu…" an affection on these lines, but so speed to catch.

Maduraiku Pogadhadi... the lyrics of pa.vijay start with praising Shriya. Beginning with the city of growing Tamil, where the lines go like "Maduraiku Pogadhadi anga Mallippoo kanavaikum (don’t go to Madurai, where jasmines may put eyes); Thanjavur Pogadhadi Thalayatum Bommai Nikkum(don’t go to Tanjavur, where head shaking dolls will stand); enkum pogamatten un munnalathan nipen munnal vanthu nenu en kanala sokka vaipen (I won’t go any where, will stand before you, stand and faint you with my eyes)." Really a wonderful folk song! I don’t, but it was the first song I used to listen in the whole album. I think it must be a welcome song for the newly marred hero and heroine. About the singers, I feel enthusiastic in there performance. It was benny dayal, archith, dharshana very new arrival with beautiful voices.

Festival therefore

Those days or some years back, I used to wait for the day Ayutha puja, which was earlier to Vijayadashami. It would be something fun filled day; we start to look for the preparation of the festival a couple of days before in our uncle’s mechanical shop. It’s since 1991 our uncle own a Maruti mechanical shop below in the grown floor of our resident in which I lived two years back. To becoming weaker in health it wasn’t possible to participate in the cleaning, decorating and chatting with workers whom where my friends on the sleepless night. For over last 7 years and after my uncle pass away I did not (actually couldn’t) present at the movement of celebration where all my family people get down to worship and give sweets, fried grain(pori) to workers, but I was spending inside home or standing on the balcony.

This time I was able to attend the Ayudha puja at workshop. They where painted, decorate with color papers, flowers for vehicles, banana tree and festoon tied, but even though it wasn’t bright, some feel of missing in happiness. It was wheel chair that takes me around, I helped myself to meet some of my worker friends, some of them are absent where they are left the job. Keeping my uncle photo with tools and god photos, all showed burning camphor and prayed, where grandpa give away the sweets, fried grains and invigorate sum to the workers that could make them enthusiasm. I was stayed the day at the workshop, spending with cousins, aunties, staying with memories, eating much ice-cream, playing with balloons, loveable kids everything would stay along till for long. Actually it was celebrated simple after my uncle’s loss, but it was an opportunity to get together for this festival after some long time.

It was the night before my grandma went into so sick and fainted because of low sugar. It was good time we admitted her in hospital before anything series, the next day she was brought to normal and doing well now. I am very busy these days in finishing my work, as I was look for a new home based job and we were in enquiring which could suit me. The weather was supposed to get in touch with monsoon and it was kept tomorrow, day after tomorrow by metrologies. Last day it was cool, clouds surrounded and it was drizzling from morning that I feel a sign of monsoon arrive. Just too visible the movement of the Ayudha puja, here are some pictures from my cam:

Learned Tamil (must see)

A person’s anger on society and himself is a line story of Learned Tamil (Kattradhu Tamil). Much of the life of Prabakar(Jeeva’s character name) was told in flashback to a media’s camera, then was to be followed. In the name itself we can understand this is a film about Tamil’s stand in today’s world, where the character was made to be in love on Tamil who took a carrier in Tamil language. Strike again strike in his life, in where he was emotionally hurt by then uncontrollable of his emotions makes he so harsh. The harsh person has a soft side in; it was her childhood sweetheart Anandi. It was a girl who may comes across in a life, everyone’s life a feel between love and friend. The acting was to be praised; there was a scene where waiting to get her father body from mortuary is innate and the continuing faces are loveable as well tiredness.

In this film the hero not talked, his character spoken, then u may know the actor’s performance. The small age prabakar was done fantastic acting; this small boy carries the fear in eyes, love in heart. His practice with Tamil teacher, and the continue of the song Para para pattaampoochi… get an envy that we dint get a teacher like him, the whole thing of that was like flying butterflies. Music by Yuvan has little shadow of Raam’s feel, but the picturesque are new to eyes. The dance on the foot level water in river, the landslide of droughty hills and the ride on curve roads, the breezy green hill top are break giving (a brake from usual). If you smile ones, it’s the meaning of my life… I adore this song and lines, the happiness in small movements. The Director Ram has come to tell in emotion the love, error and practice of living. The accident scene is one that taken from real life of hitting the standing vehicle that we hear often.

I concern the concept more in the character’s distress where the computer related graduates gain more money and value in society and other fields of Tamil, History, (Agriculture is too my opinion) are looked value less. The film describes the disgrace on a Tamil educator who takes it on his wish against that high scored must do only engineering and medical. And what about the low grade students and who lack to support higher studies doing today are running behind values. I am not going to support the attack on the specific area of computers, call centers or anything, but the truth is those areas are more valued in world other than a degree holder. Where one of my friend finished B.sc last year in a poor situation of his family and looked for the job on his education to lift the family, who was also do computer better was forced to work in a vest and brief garment factory in Tirupur.

I am not truly agreed on the concept that computers are only developed area, but computers occupied on every area, the technology well prepared for every one to use. What ever we say, the money values more than the wish. I was put on thought on my area of agriculture, where most of today’s computer fields like, IT, BPO, Call Centers, Engineering collages are on the lands of agriculture, for today’s value we lose the future value. And the film has a side of slope is, getting anger on the impossibility. I feel it’s a bad signal for society, because every ones life was decided by their own desire and none pushes. It was a subject that we are not like others, enjoying the life on multi complex, cellular, flying aboard earning more… it was the mental attitude that one experience of getting no respect and price for a degree course. I feel the people select there field not on the wish, but on the value. Once there was the time where working in government had a value and states, but today software engineer has a value in specific. I am not talking against the IT’s, but we need all areas to be specific. I remember that line, “only one part of our body grows is not the growth, it should be on whole body.” I don’t know how the director left the real estate area that is more money flowing place…

Way to go...

I missed to wish my new physiotherapist on his second visit on Sunday that was his birthday. I met him on Saturday at home, where he tested and inquired about my medical reports to make aware before giving treatments. He is a graduate in naturopathy and was practicing in hospitals for over six months. When in search of a therapist we was introducing from our neighbor grandpa to offer him, who was the son of our street Ganesh temple’s priest. Dad and the priest well knew for a year some, in a talk we know his son was a therapist without knowing any other information, where the time our neighbor grandpa was close to the priest and urged him to do therapy for me. Except physiotherapy, he want me take the naturopathy treatment too, where it will support more in addiction to therapy. He gave me mild exercise yesterday with acupressure and he was to increase step-by-step. It was bored at evening, mom and me was decided to step out to have my ride at wheels, though near the gate found our therapist arrive and turned to home. Coming to the miss to wish is, I don’t know it was his birthday, but I came to know from his cellular speech to someone. I was in pause to wish or not, whether he may mistake me watching his phone conversation.

It was an expected end of a program Ooh la la la... (the new magic of music) in Sun TV. I was watching this program from the beginning, each performance would feel enjoyable. Enthusiastic of the music reaches high, the vocal, instruments and allover the equal importance of each player is behind the excitement. I sit to guess with performance who would win, but it was calculated in deep I think, so much time what I feel would go reverse. The best part of this program was at finals, where the performance before AR.Rahman was wonderful. There was a hard work on each team, I was in excite to know whom the finalities to have the chance of doing album in rahman’s studio, but surprisingly Rahman done extraordinary by selecting all six bands. In the entire bands I like the Zinx, V3 & Oxygen’s performance. Zinx they are in full energetic, the vocal and instruments mixes well for the songs. I must have to tell about this girl Zinx Sandhiya’s delighted voice and face expressing, it’s pleasing. Her last song Neatru Illatha mattram was superb. There was a guy in the V3 I think not sure, giving his full energy to bring out, if he little bit reduce his stress that would be finer. I just don’t want this program to end here… it was remarkable, having seen singers program but new for a band performance.

If it was possible for this, their would be also possibilities to bring the rural musicals to light for the world. Every time I have this thought when seeing the more film shadow of music programs. Sure it will be a new and unusual if they conduct a search for the best of our Indian and importantly Tamil rural folk performance. The dying art must also be encouraged where it glanced little lightning from people. By the way today is our Rocket man’s birthday, guessed right na. Yes its our former President of India A.P.J. Abdul Kalam’s B’day. Wish he lives longer, healthier to guide our India on develop path.
