Listening to songs...

I was listening to those songs that nithya was talking abt and liked some of them- the ones from a-ah, and ghajini…esp "suttum vizhi" and the one that goes “rahatulla’ sung by Anupama- I love the gusto and power in her intonations. Can never forget that song “chandralekha” from “thiruda thiruda”. I saw her singing that song on stage for some award function telecast- she looked so demure and beautiful- and when she belted that vigorous song- dancing along- it was great.

I like to watch the singers enjoying themselves as they sing- somehow it has more effect than when they stand sedately and sing politely into the mike.

I also liked the songs from “oru naal oru kanavu”- the khajuraho song reminded me of “oru pattampuchhi nenjukkulle “ from “kathalukku maryaadai” and “kaatril varum geetham” reminded me of “naam gum jaayega” from “kinara”- My cousin brother says that the movie was lousy.
I saw “azhagiya theeye” y’day on T.V- nice movie- liked it- but kept expecting Prakash Raj to spring up some villainous shock any time- I was not taken in by his nice guy acting at all…but I was happily mistaken- he was indeed a good guy all the while- he looks eccentric to me-even when he is a normal, nice guy- I liked him best in “vidukkathai” where the heroine was the little girl from “keladi kanmani”.

>> haha...that description put a smile on my face...i keep thinking our "indian culture" puts wayy too much emphasis on looking "dignified" rather than being real...the victorians must have learnt it from us... :-P

Thiruda was one pretty film that wasn't appreciated much, to my surprise. Nice to know there's one more admirer. Good day Ardra!
