Like how vegetables have been important in our
everyday meal, vegetables have also played an important role in the
lyrics of songs. Thinking this is weird? See for yourself!! We are sure
you must have heard the song 'Velarikka pinju' which was super famous
from the movie Kadhal Kottai. Deva and Krishnaraj have done a wonderful
job with their singing.
Talking about vegetables, we all love our 'gundu
kathhirika'. Guessed the song? Yes 'Kathhirika Kathhirika gundu
kathhirika' from Duet composed by A.R.Rahman and sung by
S.P.Balasubramanyam and Minmini is a good example. The racy rhythm, the
settings, the lyrics - everything is amazing about this song.
'Paal papaali vela thakali' must be given its due
credence for the smart word play! Rahul Nambiar and Mahathi have
ofcourse done a good job with the singing. This track is from the movie
Sathyam starring Vishal and Nayantara. Another masterpiece we could say
in terms of beautiful lyrics covering almost all the vegetables one
could think of is 'Molachumoonu elaiyum vidala' from the movie
Velayudham. This set of lyrics which appears in the song - veralu
vendakka un kaadhu avarakkamooku molaga, mookuthi kaduga, kanindha kaai
thottam neethana we think is beautiful. Who would have thought the
emotion of romance can be brought out by vegetables? This is where we
appreciate the effort of Annamalai , the lyricist of this song. Another
wonderful song composed by Ilayaraja, sung by S.P.Balasubramanyam and
Chithra strikes our head - 'Ena samaialo' from the movie Unnal mudiyum thambi. If you pay keen attention to the lyrics of the song, you will
notice even the mention of ingredients like - 'Garam masala'! Ofcourse
the use of vegetables and ingredients in the lyrics makes this song
different on its own.
'Vaadi en kapakazhange' is a wonderful listen and infact a very catchy song.
A meal without 'molaga' is not complete. Ofourse
'Pacha Molaga' from Mr.Bharath is a good choice. Wasn't this refreshing?
Tune in and listen to our vegetables.
