Tamil Songs - an irony
Thanks to Sun TV for getting me the songs of 70s, 80s and I am having a ball with them. Especially with the ones that has weird and unimaginative choreography and cinematography. Few samples:
1. Film: Vaikasi Porandhachchu, Song: Thanni Kodam Eduthu..Thangam Nee Nadanthu Vandha
I remember that exchanging the song cassettes with my friends for songs from this movie. Actually it is surprising to see Kaveri, who can be spotted in serials full of tears (probably thinking about her career path), in this song. The director decided to shoot this on a beach where one would not use a kodam (will the word bucket do justice...) and also dressed Kaveri up in a bridesmaid dress with kodam in one hand. I think these were mistakes deliberately made as it is inconceivable to shoot it in this form unless one just wanted to frustrate the viewers.
2. Film: Rail Payanangalil Song: Vasantha Raagangal...Isainthu Padungal
The heroine, whoever that is, is dressed up in a bharthanatyam costume is staying put in one place and makes some funny gestures with her body and hands. The singer sings, "Asainthu Asainthu aadungal", but she would not budge. Good fun.

Vikatan Politics
Even though election just got over, Vikatan still has a hangover. Vikatan message looks like an election statement. Almost, personally written by Mu. Ka.
BTW, personally I do not have have anything against the magazine as I've enjoyed reading it all these years. Only thing of concern is the quality and trustworthiness.
