Songs of 2011

With 2011 drawing to a close, lets see what songs our newsmakers had in mind - as usual a satirical imagination ;)

Anna Hazare: moondrezhuthil en moochu irukkum, adhu mudindha pinnalum pechirukum
A Raja: Started the year with 'Raajathi raajan inda raja' and ends with 'no money, no kani'. (poor man, No bail also)
M Karunanidhi: Started the year with 'varudhu varudhu election varudhu'; defeated and after seeing his daughter's arrest & bail now singing - vandhaal mahalakshmiye
Jayalalithaa: Emerged victorious 'Jeya berigai kottada' and now 'ennuyir thozhi keladi seidhi...'
Sasikala: Aappu songu. Y dis kolaveri kolaveri kolaveri akka?
Ambani family: Beginning was a duet 'yeh Antilla hai pyaar ka' and now in a chorus 'hum saath saath hain' (Perfect family photo)
'Mannu'mohan: amma na summa illa da, ava ilanna naane illa da
Rahul 'the Dimpled' Gandy: kehta hai joker saara

P Chidambaram: pesa koodathu verum pechil sugam
Rajinikanth: naan seththu pozhachavan da, yemana parthu sirichavan da

Aish, the Ice Queen: Poovaagi kaayagi kanindha maram ondru.... (sssssshabba, at last!)

Paatukku Paatu

Now that the much-awaited poll results are out, a wild imagination what songs would all the leaders sing. :)
MK in a wheelchair & Dayalu Ammal attending him:
ponnai virumbum bhoomiyile, ennai virumbum oruyire... (Aalayamani Sivaji Ganesan Saroja Devi madhiriye irukkunga annooov!)
Rajathi to MK:
Sumaithaangii saaindhaal :( :( :(
A Raja:
no money, no kani, no money no kani da...
Kani:
Ennirandu padhinaaru kambiiiiii
Arcot Veersamy:
minsaaram en meedhu paayigindrathey..
KD Bros + Saxena:
Kaagidha odam kadal alai mele povadhu pole moovarum povom
Azhagiri & Stalin:
Muthuku muthaaga sothukku sothaaga annan thambi pirandhu vandhom onnukul onnaga; kaniyaale pogaporom mannodu mannaga
Amma (thanking A Raja):
vetri meedhu vetri vandhu enai serum, adhai vaangi thanda perumai ellam unnai serum.
Amma:
Sri ranga ranganathanin paadham vandanam seiyyadi...
KV Thangkabalu:
Satti suttadhada kai vittadhada, buddhi kettadhada.... / Naan oru rasi illa raja
Vadivelu:
enai kaanavellaiye netrodu, engum thedi parkiren kaatrodu, ini en kaiyyile thiruvodu

'Jaya' Berigai kottada....

All you upper caste jackals out there celebrating the arrest of Spectrum Raja and forwarding SMSs badmouthing the man and his party, hang your heads on shame for you have betrayed the modern-day King Mahabali of Tamil Nadu, Mr Andimuthu Raja.
Those wondering adding vowels to your excalmations like 'Raja o, Mahabali o,' Yes, see MK's speech today in which he has likened Raja to the great Raja Mahabali. What wrong did Raja do? Just because he helped mobile phone facilities reach the poor, he is suffering in jail. Just because he favoured the not-so-money-minting realty-backed firms Swan Telecom and Uninor to help them grow in their new venture without expecting an iota of commission from them, he suffers in jail. Just because he made available the pleasure of telephony services to all the Dalits in the country, he is suffering in jail. Just because he hails from the downtrodden community, he is now suffering in jail due to the upper caste politics.
Sollunga yejaman solunga, indha paapara pasangale ippadi thaan!

But why stop with Mahabali alone? U can take oodles of mythical references like these:

• The same people demonised King Ravana (because he is of Kshatriya caste) who saved Sita from that 'parpana' doubting Thomas are now back taking their vengeance on Raja who provided mobile services to Dalits by favouring not-so-thriving- companies.
• And you can also compare Raja to Jesus Christ (maybe, you can get the sypathy and support of minority community who knows!). Like how He suffered whiplashes for His people, Raja is suffering in jail for making mobiles affordable to the poor.
• "Pittukku mann sumandhaan paramasivan, indru cellukku punn sumakkirar engal Dravida Chudar".
  But one thing, whether it's reference to Vamana or Mahabali, DMK is today a Trivikrama with its presence in almost every field.

Aayirathil Oruvan

M G R - the name itself has got some charisma there. Even after many years of his death his legacy lives and rules. Okay, happy being an MGR fan but at the same time very much frustrated when everyone uses his name as their self-rewarded 'adaimozhi'. In Mylapore, i see the walls near RK Mutt painted a picture of some moron with the letters "Chinna MGR". And near Royapettah - a 10 min drive from Mylapore, I see a famous actor-turned-politician being called as Vaazhum Karuppu MGR (Enna kodumai sir idhu!).

It all started with Bhagyaraj being proclaimed as MGR's filmdom heir (God knows on what basis!). Can any of these guys compete with MGR in beauty, talent, statecraft, screen presence and mass appeal. I know, some sick perverts will tend to see only his affinity, at a later stage of his career, towards his heroines. Leave that. Compare that "bewitched, enigmatic" (as described by ex-DGP Mohnadas in his book MGR-nijamum nizhalum), bunny-teethed smile with the 'asadu vazhiyum' sirippu of these guys. Look at the mass appeal the man had and still has! Still his re-released films run to packed houses and he still lives in many huts.

Even in statecraft he is second to none. He efficiently tackled the Naxals issue in Dharmapuri during the 80s (to tell in his 'dosth' MK's tone - andai maanilangalana Andhravai paarungal, pongu maangkadal ulla vangathai paarungal, oyindhu poi vitta orissavai parungal :-P ). and when the teachers threatened to go on strike demanding salary hike (as always) during the public exam time, he handled with great ease and put them in place. He has never acted in smoking/drinking scenes barring Thirudathey and Oli Vilakku.

PS: For these morons, one small piece of advice - y stop wid Chinna mgr or karuppu mgr? Go on, silly fellas - kutty mgr, kuttiyoondu mgr, dhammathoondu mgr, ithunoondu mgr, thakkanoondu mgr.......

SUJATHA & KARUNA

"Arasaanga saapadu, arasaanga TV, arasaanga kaelikkaigal, arasaanga marundhu, ellaame arasinudaiyathu; naamellam enngal (numbers) thaan" - so goes a line in Sujatha's En Iniya Endhira.

I'm not a great fan of Sujatha. I read La Sa Ra, Thi Ja, Jeyakaanthan, Cho, Devan. But this line, I struck a chord with. Sujatha's lines hold good with today's situation (arasaanga TV - Sun, kalaignar; arasaanga sapadu - Re 1 rice; arasanga kaelikkaigal - Red giant, cloud 9, sun pictures, kalaignar pictures; arasaanga marundhu - kalaignar kaapeedu). And Mathi (of Dinamani fame) portayed this in his cartoon and drew flak from thatha. MK is overreacting these days with his regular TM words - paarpanrgal soozhchi, poonol pottorin aatchi, aariya maayaiyin neetchi. Doesn't know to differentiate between literature and politics. In a literature gathering, he speaks politics and in a political gathering he will speak about literature/cinema and his contribution blowing his 'vuvuzela' loudly. We suggest MK visit a geriatrician and retire, plssss.

Back to Sujatha, methinks he has some soft corner towards breasts. In each and every work of his, he describes the beauty, esply breasts of his lead ladies - Priya (aval parandha maarbin mel sadhurangame vilayadalam pol irundadhu), Meghangalai thurathinavan (rathnavin meth endra andha edathil mugam pudhaikka vendum endrirundhadhu), En iniya endhira (pointing out at bra - enaku indha ullani elaam anindhu pazhakam illai.Man- naan eppedho adhai parthu vittaen), Meendum Jeeno (kuzhandai pirandhal lactation ku payanpadum idhanaal veru evvalavu payangal irukkiradhu - the dog wondering so), etc.

PS: Hubby dear likes Sujatha the most. Should ferret out why?! LOL. Infact hubby was planning to intervu him, alas, he kicked d bucket!

Aamra tomake bhalo bhashi, didi!

Well, enough is enough.. It's an accident, it's a disaster, dats all... People speak as if Mamata didi has conspired against her own customers (okie, passengers). People, from their dusted memories, recollect Lal Bahadur Shastri's resignation in 1956 following a train accident that killed around 150 passengers near Ariyalur in Tamil Nadu and demand Mamata didi to do the same. An interview (of course, imaginary) with didi and here we go.

Reporter: ma’m people quote history and demand your resignation. What’s your take on it?
Mamata: I too know history. I too have read about Nero, Louis XIV, etc.

R: There is an accusation that you hardly visit New Delhi’s Rail Bhavan and you are often seen in Bengal?
M: Home is where heart is.

R(taken aback): Ma’m we found out that as many as 20,000 posts lined to railway safety lie vacant.
M: Just now an accident occurred. We are speaking to the victims’ relatives. The more train accidents and casualties, the more the rate of compensation and job disbursement. So, we will be able to fill these 20000 vacancies soon, I think. My aim is to create a super-rich class of Railway employees in the society.

Reporter goes speechless and faints.
