Never ending Surangani..

Some songs just don’t die just like the Batman,spider man or the Friday the 13th movies.

Same like that the Surangani baila song from Srilanka was remixed in tamil in the past and now the Surangani remix by Dinesh Kanagaratnam yet again adapted in tamil movie called ‘taxi TN O7 AL 4777‘ and its one of the best remixes I have listened in recent times.

Surangani tamil remix called Aathichudi  from taxi TN O7 AL 4777.

The original video track was removed from Youtube hence i’m including just the audio track from youtube.

Surangani Remix  by Dinesh. I personally like this one..

Original Surangani sinhala track probably who ever listened to Ceylon radio would know this song.

Original Surangani track adpated by an old tamil movie. Not so great though..

India Electoral Roll List search

Yet again I was immersed  reading Wikipedia articles and I found a site that basically provides search interface to search the electoral roll list of India.

With elections on the way  this tool would avoid people from visiting the poll booth and return back with out voting since they aren’t in the list. It can be accessed from the below link.

http://search.eci.gov.in/

BTW I’m not sure if it really works because I kept encountering this login pop up which was annoying so I found the site for Tamil Nadu Election commison to check if I was there in the list.

One more you need to download their own tamil fonts and install. I know..

Bummer TN election has a search interface with Under construction message.  They do have another form which gives out tamil pdf for district – Constituency ward list for each of them.

Again bummer its in tamil so I can’t search in firefox or inside pdf which is a pain. So I had to literally read through all names in my ward and to every ones surprise I’m not listed :cry:

Waste of time. One good thing now I know my neighbours name and avoided a trip for my dad to check out the list.

Yamm Petra Inbam intha Vaiyakamum peratum..

தை பொறந்தா வழி பொறக்கும் தங்கமே தங்கம்

Thai Piranthal Vazhi Pirakum is an old tamil saying which means as the tamil calendar month of Thai is born you will find solutions to all your problems.

This year its true in my case since I finally got out of my cycle of cold -flu – bronchitis with this new month. Although doctor prescribed the medicine and I took it but still it counts as an solution right ain’t it.

Happy Pongal..

Here is the original lyrics from the song. Video Link for the song.

தை பொறந்தா வழி பொறக்கும் தங்கமே தங்கம் தங்க‌ ச‌ம்பா நெல் விளையும் தங்கமே தங்கம்

ஆடியிலே வெதை வெதைசோம் தங்கமே தங்கம்
ஐப்ப‌சியில் க‌ளை எடுத்தோம் தங்கமே தங்கம்
கார்த்திகையில் க‌திராச்சி தங்கமே தங்கம்
கார்த்திகையில் க‌திராச்சி தங்கமே தங்கம்
க‌ழ‌னியெல்லாம் பொன்னாச்சி தங்கமே தங்கம்
தை பொறந்தா வழி பொறக்கும் தங்கமே தங்கம்
தங்க‌ ச‌ம்பா நெல் விளையும் தங்கமே தங்கம்

க‌ன்னிய‌ரின் ம‌ன‌சு போலே தங்கமே தங்கம்
க‌ல்யாண‌ம் ஆகும‌டி தங்கமே தங்கம் ஆமா !
க‌ன்னிய‌ரின் ம‌ன‌சு போலே தங்கமே தங்கம்
க‌ல்யாண‌ம் ஆகும‌டி தங்கமே தங்கம்
வ‌ண்ண‌ம‌ணி கைக‌ளிலே தங்கமே தங்கம் ஆகா !
வ‌ளையல்களும் குலுங்கும‌டி தங்கமே தங்கம்
தை பொறந்தா வழி பொறக்கும் தங்கமே தங்கம்
தங்க‌ ச‌ம்பா நெல் விளையும் தங்கமே தங்கம்

முத்துச‌ம்பா நெல்லு குத்தி தங்கமே தங்கம்
முற்ற‌த்திலே சோறு பொங்கி தங்கமே தங்கம்
குத்து விள‌க்கேற்றி வ‌ச்சி தங்கமே தங்கம் ஆமா
குத்து விள‌க்கேற்றி வ‌ச்சி தங்கமே தங்கம்
கொண்டாடி ம‌கிழ்ந்திடுவோம் தங்கமே தங்கம்
தை பொறந்தா வழி பொறக்கும் ….


Nathigar Vizha 2006

I have always wanted to do an podcast about superstitious beliefs that we have in our society and existence of god himself but Director Seeman has given a better speech with more facts.

If you know tamil and are atheists or a person looking out for an answer then you might like it for others its abusive so please stay away. You should have patience as well bcz seeman brags abt himself a lot in his speeches.

I wonder why the so called pro-ltte sites which carry all speeches of Seeman didn’t carry this one. May be they aren’t atheist who just need the support of Seeman’s speech alone.

Ethanai Periya Manithanukku (Aasai Mugam)

A song that I have been murmuring,listening and viewing for the last 7 days.

Is it the lyrics or singer or just the MGR effect?

Sabapathy one of a kind

There are some movies that you can watch n number times because they are so well made and the plot of the movie still applies today. Sabapathy released in 1941 falls under that category and a precursor to all comedy movies in tamil.

Most of the new comedians mostly take a thread from this movie and repackage to the current trend. One simple example is the repackaging of the master servant switching places story one example I could remember right away is Ullathai alithaa which was big hit in 90′s.

Some other surprising things I noticed are:

  1. People bribed even before India got Independence and it was even shown in movies. So bribe was something that we had it not something we generated after independence. Still we haven’t fixed it thats the sad part. Almost 70 years of promises by politicians.
  2. Tanglish was born and brought up even before the Dravidian parties was formed and it flourished. E.g ‘ivan nusiance thanga mudiyala sir’,'vera enna seilam brother’,'brother ithalam ippadi vaika’. The percentage is still low but Tanglish had it roots long before.
  3. Sabapathy father complains about his son not knowing to right 2 pages in tamil and my dad shares the same feeling. View @ 19.00 Minutes in Video 1.

70 years of time has passed but people haven’t changed.

What ever may be this is one good movie that I can enjoy watching any time any where rather than watching the new ones.

Please watch the movie if you get a chance.

Man of simple words

I was watching this movie Iru vallavargal which I watched assuming that the Paradee Kanney song was from this movie. Its a typical 60′s masala tamil movie which is way better than current masala movies.

But I was quite amazed with Kannadasan lyrics for the sad situation. Its just 4 lines and about 25 words but he brings in the whole concept of life in to that. These concepts,ideas and words all have been there for centuries but he some how gets all these in to those 4 lines which can be understood by any one.

Uravu Irunthal Pirivu Irukum Ulaga Neethe
Vaaravu irunthal Selavu irukum Valkai neethe
Pagal Irunthal Iravu irukum Iraivan Neethee
Palakiya Pin vilakuvathey Manitha Jathi.

Here is the translation for the above lyrics..correct me if I’m wrong.

If there is relation then there is separation thats Worlds rule.
If there is earning then there is Expense thats life’s rule.
If there is day then there is night thats gods rule.
same way Alienating after spending time with you is the Human Race.

I couldn’t find this song any where but if you would like to hear it then please go to the video here and move to 7.25 and you can hear Sirkali singing it a much better way.

Raman Andalum Ravanan Andalum Ennaku oru illai

Yes its true politician don’t have a permanent foes especially in my gr8 state of Tamil Nadu. With the elections coming I’m sure we will see more foes becoming friends.

Already Mr.Vaiko has joined in alliance with Miss. Jayalalitha’s AIADMK which threw him in Jail for a year for supporting LTTE inside India. I remember him and his friends like Seeman calling her names but today I saw a news that she is extending her support for the Eelam cause and wondering what will be the reaction from Mr.Seeman.

Will he take her support if she forms the government in TN? I guess he will since every one is a opportunists.

Truth is I don’t give a damn who rules the state because every one swindles peoples money.

Songs picturized in a diff way

Songs are supposed to be remembered for there music but some tamil songs like the ones below I remember them for picturization. These songs are out of the normal duet songs with people dancing around which makes people to go for a smoke break during a movie.

These songs have one thing in common the story is included along with the song which gets the viewers attention.

  1. En Kanmani En Kadhali : The song takes place in a bus between the lovers consciousness as they travel in a bus. The best part is the conductor shouting like ‘Inthama Karuvatu koodai munadi poo’,'Thenampettai super market iranku’ along with the song which basically brings the lovers to reality. The same concept was elaborated with Anbe Aaruyire which was a ok movie.
  2. Sangeetha Swarngal – Alagan : This song would have increased the revenue for the telecom companies. A song that every guy would have thought after spending so much of Dads money @ PCO/home phone and finally blaming the bill on some unknown connection problem. Night fulla Kadalai varukiratha decenta patta edutha ippadi than irukum sir.
  3. It clearly shows how a guy gets bulb when trying to flirt with a girl he likes. Lintels no boiling.

There could be more songs but these are the ones that I like.

Kathal mannan / kadhal mannan

I’m dedicating this song to my friend Karthik Sundaram who is over bloober Kathal Mannan. When I get a chance I will update the video with his picture slide show and show to the world his true colors.

Here are his sample pictures and his orkut profile link.
