#Telugu Old Songs

[selva25]

[ronaldofandom]

Salaar is the most average shit I have seen in a while.

Same old KGF style sets, slow-mo shots, god like hero hitting 50 men together and all flying in the air at the same time.

It’s all about 4 action scenes (which are quite average), the rest leads up to it in the most lethargic way. Zero story.

Only emotion is either stone-like (Prabhas) or over the top loud (mother, villains, kids) or outright dumb (Shruti).

Shruti gets attacked twice but she still goes to the market alone a third time. Such brilliant writing.

Never wanted to think of Prabhas as a bad actor but dear lord, every single thing since Bahubali has been atrocious.

Don’t even wanna say anything about Prashant Neel - he is one formula director and people are starting to get bored of it, as shown by Salaar’s underperformance in all languages except Telugu. Comparing him to Rajamouli is blasphemy.

I am dumbfounded to see some RRR fans liking and tripping over Salaar. After seeing the beautifully intricate and believable Dosti of RamBheem, how in the world did you feel anything for DevaVardha? No emotion there connected, nothing was believable.

The BGM is too loud. All songs suck, not a single one worth remembering.

Genuinely curious to know what is it you guys found tolerable (can’t even say liked) in this movie. Please pls do share.

[toccata-i-voir]

so, in the midst of the song lyrics anons from someone who likes foreign languages, here is the rundown so far (chronological order as far as posting dates go):

1.Stars - Dubstar is it asking too much, to be given time ? To know these songs and to sing them ? Is it asking too much of my vacant smile. And my laugh and lies that bring them russian 9th Dec

2.The Well - Crane Wives all the words i could´t tell you, Oh the damage I have wrought. That old house, those rotting memories burned easier than I´d have thought greek 14th Dec

3.Cyanide Love - Within Temptation I didn't see anything I haven't heard anything, I'm not going to talk german 17th Dec

4.Open Doors - ...and you will know us by the trail of the dead Save this rotten world, the time is bad but still forever we better not to enter walking through open doors telugu 19th Dec

I do feel, however that one more post warrants a mention. An ask from 1st Dec.

It was followed by several asks containing the same sort of russian transliteration as the song which later appeared (number 1), not to mention those subsequent asks came in on 9th December (date of number 1). It fits a bit too well, if you ask me.

So I took a closer look at the contents of the "riddle". A mercenary, a king, an affluent individual with wealth and a priest, all in the same room.

Now, I wouldn´t bat an eye at it, if it weren´t for the possible tie to Eurus, as I already mentioned in my post relating to number 2.

Exploring this thread, the riddle becomes clearer. The king can be none other than the Mr. Government Holmes, @atamh. The priest and the affluent individual escape me, but I would bet all my savings on the fact that one of them is supposed to be @consult-sherlockholmes. Mercenary ? @consultjohnwatson, no doubt there.

Now, I ask you, gentlemen - will you shed some light on what´s going on here or will you continue to ignore the situation and argue about each other´s love lives ?

i will burn with a light of my own - notes

Duncan’s prophecy is in three parts:

Moonlight shall be your shield and dawn shall be your sword - refers to Sansa appearing like Talyah/the Mother Rhoyne with the help of moonlight to Lady Zara Wyl, and then how she used the changing light of dawn to appear like Talyah/the Mother Rhoyne to Lord Wyl, Arianne, and the people in the courtyard.

From the eldest shall come the oldest - Jon is the eldest Stark child of the new generation, and he achieves the oldest skill of the Starks, wolfsinging.

The only answer for death can never be death - when Sansa asks the dragon to stop slavery and it offers to burn Meereen and all of Slaver’s Bay to the ground.

The tracts of wood for Castle Wyl’s surrounding walls are made of pine, primarily as a shout-out to my favorite estuary in SoCal, Torrey Pines. 

Prince Lewyn really did have a paramour despite being a Kingsguard, which has been living rent-free in my brain since I read Arys’ chapter in AFFC. Not that Sansa knew this, of course, but there should totes be some random weedy looking folks popping out of nowhere to claim Martell blood is what I’m saying ;)

“Grief is a river which carries me along, but I am the river, too,” whispers Zara. “Hate is a tiger that devours me, but I am the tiger. Rage is a fire that consumes me, but I am the fire.” - This line is adapted from the Jorge Luis Borges essay, “A New Refutation of Time,” which goes “Time is the substance I am made of. Time is a river which sweeps me along, but I am the river; it is a tiger which destroys me, but I am the tiger; it is a fire which consumes me, but I am the fire.”

Druselka was Nymeria of Ny Sar’s companion, a priestess of the Mother Rhoyne who accompanied Nymeria on her journey from the Rhoyne when the Valyrians invaded. She claimed to have heard the Mother Rhoyne calling her children home and led her followers back to the Rhoyne, where the Valyrians enslaved them. In this story, her prophecy was a ruse designed by Nymeria to ensure those that followed her to Westeros would not be without a choice (to return home).

The names of the Wyl sisters (Talyah, Zara, and Mariah) are riffs on Hebrew names, though Mariah is notably also used as a Martell name. 

The four Sand Snakes they meet in the desert are Obara, Nymeria, Tyene, and Elia.

Sulphurous rivers, as far as I can tell, do not exist on Earth, though there is a “Sulphur River” in Texas; sulfur water, on the other hand, does exist, and often results in a) a very strong smell and b) water on fire. So that’s why the Brimstone burns when dragonfire touches it.

Blue fire is usually considered the hottest color, but purple fire would match the eyes of the Targaryens, wouldn’t it?

Fire turns sand to glass if it’s hot enough. The hills of Meereen have copper in them, which is why they form “a crunchy, icy glass that gleams a blue even brighter than the sky.” Were the glass that formed near the Hellholt to be described, due to the sulphur contamination, it would have been a deep, amber color.

“I will live under it for the rest of the days of my life. And if I falter… then death shall be my reward, as it has been for all the rest of my kin.” - A riff on JRRT’s Silm line, “His valour was as a fire yet steadfast as the hills of stone; wise he was and skilled in voice and hand; troth and justice he loved and bore goodwill to all, both Elves and Men, hating Morgoth only; he sought not his own, neither power nor glory, and death was his reward.”

“You question where you can find a beach without waves,” says the old dragon, “but the truth at the heart of this world is that there are no eyes that cannot dream.” - Taken from the Telugu song “Nee Prashnalu Neeve,” from the movie Kotha Bangara Lokam.

https://www.tumblr.com/youremyheaven/753636400982786048/whys-this-song-sooo-catchyyy-sreeleela-is-a?source=share

Yes!! It is. The music director ( thaman) literally sampled a Telugu meme of an old man cursing and used it inthe song. " Kurchini marthabetti de***githe " is what that old guy says , in the song they beeped out the last word . Thaman gave him 10k to this old man for using his voice & meme .

Sreeleela is a phenomenal performer . Her debut was in tollywood and she had a movie release every month in 2023 . How does she balance her studies btw she's a mbbs student and acting.

My fav performance of her is 'pulsar bike' song , she got popular with this song actually .

https://youtu.be/c9fXiv1UELo?si=jAdegfoeDPgl-uzx

Omg tysm for telling me!!! This is sooo interesting

I looked up the meme,, I don't understand anything but the grandpa seems funny as hell 😭😂 marthabetti means chair??? I saw a comment say that the grandpa was talking about attacking someone with a chair??? 😭 idk if they were kidding but what's the context??? like within the song?? ik they used chairs as props in the chorus but???

Damn he should've been paid more than 10k tho if his meme inspired a whole ass song :/

Sreeleela seems like such a Martian woman, she's such a high energy performer,, more than anything, it's her energy and power that makes her look so good while performing. It seems very Martian to me.

She only had 4 releases in 2023 👀 that math don't be mathing

But yes, that's still a lot of movies to do IN A YEAR 😭😭😭

Damn she's doing medicine??? I looked her up and apparently her mom's a famous doctor and treats many film stars?? Wow

Also Sreeleela adopted 2 kids??? when she was 21??? What 😳🤯😮?? Has she ever talked about them?? I can't find more info on it 😔

I watched the pulsar bike song and damn her energy is just 💯🥵🔥 but the song itself is kinda meh (sorry 😔) but I loooveeee Telugu dance numbers,,, all Telugu actors can dance really well. They go sooo hard. Same with Tamil dance numbers actually. They dance like they'll break all their bones , it makes you want to get up and join them 😍🥳

[desi-yearning]

Most favourite old telugu song

If this counts as old then definitely this one!

[eenadu-varthalu]

Just realized I listen to the songs but I’ve never seen Kandukondain Kandukondain (Priyuralu Pillichindi) in its entirety before, so here are my thoughts watching it? (I’m watching it in Tamil, so dialogues and songs are gonna be referenced in Tamil? Because I know there are some changes in the Telugu version)

*cheers* MAMMOOTTY MAMMOOTTY MAMMOOTTY MAMMOOTTY 😤😤😤

No no Tabu you’re not going to be alone, I promise, if no one I’ll be more than happy to be yours 😭

LMAOOOO HE DID NOT JUST GET TWO CATS MARRIED (this is legit gonna be me. Don’t get married, get everyone around you married)

I— damn this movie really said bisexual awakening (and we’re not even 30 minutes in)

Okay, I’ve never been a huge Ajith person before BUT DAMN HE LOOKS SO GOOD IN THIS MOVIE

Kannamoochchi Yaenada but the duet version with K.J.Yesudas >>>>>>

AISHWARYA RAI IS SO SO SO PRETTY AHHHH

*screams* ENNA SOLLA POIGIRAI ENNA SOLLA POIGIRAI NAYAMAAAA NAYAMAAA??? *concerned roommate noises in the background*

Awwww major bala is in loveeeeeeeeee 🥺🥺🥺

No but his little grin when he can’t say he doesn’t love her 🤌🏽🤌🏽🤌🏽

Whyyyyyyy does Abbas recite poetry like that??? Like the meter is off? (Also Vikram dubbed for him??? That’s cool!)

You say Abbas my mind goes to the harpic ad

This scene just got 100 times better with Hariharan singing Chuttum Vizhi in the background

Honestly mood: I too would walk in the rain like a mad person if I stared at aishwarya Rai for that long

LMAFOOOOO I AM MAJOR BALA, MAJOR BALA IS ME!!!

Meenu: *all romantic* “Kanamma” (means darling or sweetheart)

Major Bala: “ah yes Kannamma, she gives very good massages, your leg will be set in a day”

Srikant: *kisses hand* the cure is some rest and two Bharathiyar poems

Major Bala: *with an amputated leg* “who am I to give advice about injuries? When I jumped off the helicopter at the war…”

Okay Srikanth is a baby and a walking red flag. Like bro it’s okay to make mistakes, why are you so butthurt about it?

And the mom defends him!?!!????

“Orchids are a hybrid. They’ve had an inter caste marriage” BAHAHAH IM DYING

Okay Srikanth’s red flag might’ve just turned orange

THE GRANDPA DIED? Nooooooo. (I’m sorry no one listened to you tatha)

AND THAT IS WHY YOU SHOULDVE LISTENED TO THE OLD MAN

Ohhhhhh is Srikanth bankrupt?????

Mammooty’s acting in this movie is good 👀👀

Awwwwwww I love the montage!!! AND WE GET THE DUET BABY LETS GOOOOO

Nooooooooo she’s no longer principal?? Damn the brother and sister in law are assholes

Yassssss queens berate the sis in law

Tabu is a programmer? WE STAN WOMEN IN STEM

Awwwww Major Bala is so sweet man 😭😭

MADAM YOURE STILL NOT OVER SRIKANTH!? Yeah no his orange flag just turned bright red.

Bahahaha dude I love his plan to get the address

“Kolathur James Bond” 😂

The songs in this movie man *chefs kiss* 🤌🏽

That’s it. I’m starting a Major Bala fan club.

WAIT NO I LOVE HOW THEYRE LOWKEY CALLING OUT HOW SOME ACTORS TAKE OVER THE FILM

Can the mom shut up about the bad luck crap?

Side note: I told my mom I was watching this AND APPARENTLY ITS HER FAVORITE MOVIE????

DAMNNNNNNN HE JUST TRASHED THE TITLE SHE CHOSE????

I feel so bad for Tabu’s character now 😭😭😭😭

NOT HER JOB— oh wait never mind. Raghuvaran is a king

YEAHHHH JAMES BOND BACK ON DUTY

THE BROTHER DIED!?!??!!?? Dude heck yeah!

Ooooooo SRIKANTH??!!!?? Was he ever gonna tell her?

SHE FALLS INTO A GUTTER?

Awwwwwwww Major Bala 😭🥺🥺🥺🥺 YEAH FINALLY MY MANS GETTING RECOGNIZED

HES SO PROUD OF HER

“what do I know about poems? ask me about AK-47s and fertilizers. I am a hi-tech farmer”

HE WANTS AN EXTRA MARTIAL AFFAIR? Srikanth is a walking and glowing red flag

“God handed you over to me saying, I am giving you this green eyed angel, take care of her.” BYE. IM BAWLING MY EYES OUT ITS NOT EVEN FUNNY

“Will you?” “I will” AHHHHHHHH

Oh my god we get to see domestic Major Bala and Meenakshi YESSSSS 😭

🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

“Flight cancel, program cancel, ticket cancel, we’re gonna have to take the luggage upstairs” MAJOR BALA IS A MOOD

Okie that’s it. I’m done. I actually really like this movie! (Sorry it’s ridiculously long)

[stephaniedola]

Top 5 films?

[rubs hands together]

ok im not gonna count my like all time fav memey comfort movies (see: the lorax, popstar: never stop never stopping) im gonna try and go with like real films. also my taste changes all the time so this is not a hard and fast list

Love & Mercy - biopic about Brian Wilson from the beach boys, portrayed in a really unique way bouncing between his 20ish year-old self at the height of his career and developing drug-induced psychosis, and his 50+ self meeting the woman who would someday be his wife while still in the clutches of an abusive conservatorship. i've never seen a movie depict either a famous persons life OR a cluster B disorder so well and with such love, mercy, and respect. if you long for better biopics, just watch love and mercy. i wasnt even a beach boys fan and i still watched it. the movie converted me and now pet sounds is like my fav album. oh and paul dano plays young brian

Fight Club - yeah yeah i know this seems like a weird choice but im just obsessed with the lore of fight club, both the book and the film. i think it was really well done and if you actually read it the way its meant to be read its just such a good time. fuck capitalism, fuck consumerism, DID is a bitch. also my main man Eddy Nortz is there so need i say more

A Clockwork Orange - this is another one of those "the book is better but the film still killed it" kind of situations. i just really like the themes and cinematography. sometimes you just want to sit down and watch some good old fashioned ultraviolence with a side of fascist overthrow and government brainwashing. ive yet to find another novel/film to truly dig into what "bad" and "good" really mean and whether forced reform is possible if the persons mind never truly changes. also i stan malcolm macdowell

RRR - right now im really just vibing with it. it ticked all the boxes i love in an action movie and in a drama. not the mention the absolute banger of a soundtrack. the friendship/romance between rambheem is so iconic and i can tell its gonna be one of those films i return to time and time again. if anyone has a link to the telugu dub pls lmk i cry that i can only find it in hindi (the songs r so much better in telugu)

The Princess Bride - arguably just my #1 never-changing favorite movie, but honestly its so ubiquitous it feels weird to give it that title. how can the princess bride be my favorite movie when its just a part of who i am? i know almost every line verbatim. i've seen it more times than i can even count. its a classic. i adore it. but, at the end of the day its not the kind of movie that can move me because it barely even feels like a movie at all. its more like just, a way of life

[carminavulcana]

RRR songs ask

1 and 7

1. Dosti- I love a lot of different songs. And most of them Hindi or Telugu or Punjabi. There is an old song that reminds me of friendship and I adore it. My father loves it too cause it reminds him of his best friend.

Tere jaisa yaar kahan from the movie Yaarana

7. Komma Uyyala- This has to be a song that I used to listen to a lot when I was a child. It makes me miss my childhood.

Papa jaldi aa jaana from the movie Taqdeer

BIOGRAPHY.

001.  devika  is  one  of  two  children  born  to  an  upper  middle  class  family  in  seattle  .  the  kumar  family  is  successful  .  ‘  bragging  rights  to  extended  family  members  ’  successful  .  a  lawyer  .  a  cardiologist  .  two  healthy  children  (  a  son  and  a  daughter  )  .  what  more  could  they  ask  for  ?  unfortunately  for  devika  ,  their  parents’  success  translated  to  strong  expectations  being  thrust  upon  them  from  a  young  age  .  she  is  always  striving  to  be  the  absolute  best  in  whatever  she  did  .  be  it  in  school  ,  sports  ,  extracurriculars  ––  you  name  it  .

 and  these  expectations  carry  through  as  they  get  older  .  she  never  wanted  to  disappoint  her  parents  .  it  didn’t  matter  that  it  looked  like  devika  was  slowly  overloading  herself  ,  she  never  wanted  to  disappoint  .  she  was  going  to  make  it  happen  .  and  that  work  eventually  pays  off  when  they  get  accepted  to  harvard  .  unfortunately  ,  her  parents  weren’t  satisfied  .  it  wasn’t  enough  to  get  into  an  ivy  league  university  .  there’s  a  lot  more  for  her  to  prove  .

002.  college  served  as  a  sense  of  freedom  .  they’re  on  their  own  for  the  first  time  .  however  ,  devika  still  feels  the  extent  of  her  parents’  expectations  .  by  the  time  she  graduates  ,  she  has  a  double  major  in  chemistry  and  art  history  and  a  minor  in  south  asian  studies  (  though  ,  the  two  other  additions  to  their  chemistry  major  remain  a  secret  from  their  parents  )  .  

 it  doesn’t  stop  there  .  she  makes  the  decision  to  pursue  her  masters  .  not  in  chemistry  .  just  in  art  history  and  south  asian  studies  .  and  she  hides  that  from  her  parents  .  they  let  them  believe  they’re  doing  it  for  chemistry  .  she’ll  tell  them  eventually  !  so  she  doesn’t  return  home  and  is  instead  off  to  new  york  .  new  city  ,  same  habits  .  study  .  explore  a  new  city  .  date  around  a  little  bit  .  update  her  parents  every  once  in  a  while  .  and  this  works  .  so  much  so  that  after  devika  finishes  obtaining  their  masters  ,  they  move  to  LA  to  get  their  doctorate  .

003.  things  come  crashing  down  while  devika  is  in  LA  .  not  their  career  .  they’re  in  school  and  secured  a  curator  position  within  a  very  well  established  museum  .  she  feels  external  pressure  from  her  parents  to  get  married  .  they  knew  it  was  coming  ,  but  marriage  just  wasn’t  in  devika’s  books  . . .  not  for  a  long  while  .

 however  ,  with  news  that  their  brother  had  gotten  engaged  ,  devika’s  parents  started  pushing  her  into  marrying  .  so  much  so  that  they’ve  given  her  a  list  of  suitors  (  of  course  deemed  acceptable  by  their  standards  )  .  she  doesn’t  say  anything  .  she  accepts  it  and  eventually  finds  someone  they’re  compatible  with  .  things  move  as  they  would  .  they’re  engaged  by  the  time  they  finish  their  doctorate  program  .

004.  their  engagement  was  met  with  excitement  all  around  from  everyone  except  devika  .  maybe  it’s  just  jitters  from  how  big  of  a  decision  they’re  making  ,  right  ?  surely  that’ll  wear  off  and  they’ll  be  excited  to  plan  their  wedding  ?  and  that’s  what  they  convince  themselves  to  believe  .  

 unfortunately  ,  six  months  into  wedding  planning  and  those  feelings  of  dread  haven’t  shaken  .  the  last  thing  she  wants  to  do  is  disappoint  but  marriage  just  wasn’t  in  the  cards  for  her  .  but  devika  makes  the  decision  to  call  off  the  wedding  .  as  expected  ,  it’s  met  with  anger  and  disappointment  .  despite  parting  on  good  terms  with  their  ex-fiance  ,  the  rest  of  their  family  weren’t  as  understanding  .  to  get  away  from  it  all  ,  devika  stumbles  upon  the  crowned  hope  .  they  booked  a  ticket  and  hasn’t  checked  in  with  their  family  since  .

PERSONALITY.

 devika  can  come  off  as  quiet,  caring  and  sensitive  .  always  open  to  listen  and  be  that  shoulder  to  cry  on  .  something  that’s  just  been  part  of  her  charm  .  and  while  they  are  highly  perceptive  and  more  than  willing  to  offer  support  when  needed  ,  they’re  still  closed  off  when  it  comes  to  their  personal  life  .  she’s  reluctant  to  open  up  ,  seeing  it  as  a  burden  to  others  .  and  from  time  to  time  ,  they  can  be  a  little  bit  of  a  perfectionist  and  a  little  dramatic  about  it  .  despite  all  this  ,  she’s  practical  ,  decisive  and  compassionate  .

Birthday greetings to the living music legend of the Hindi film industry, Sri #Pyarelal Ramprasad Sharma (03/09).

The iconic music director duo #LaxmikantPyarelal is synonymous with Hindi film music, particularly its popular hits. Born on September 3, 1940, Pyarelal Ramprasad Sharma is the son of the renowned trumpeter, Pandit Ramprasad Sharma, also known as Babaji. Under his father's guidance, Pyarelal started learning the violin at just 8 years old, dedicating 8 to 12 hours daily to practice. He further refined his violin skills under Goan musician Anthony Gonsalves. The song "My Name Is Anthony Gonsalves" from the film Amar Akbar Anthony is a tribute to Gonsalves, featuring music by the Laxmikant–Pyarelal duo.

At 12, Pyarelal began playing the violin in various studios, including Ranjit Studios, to support his family financially. His brother, Gorakh Sharma, also contributed by playing guitar for songs composed by Laxmikant-Pyarelal.

The duo first gained widespread recognition with their music for the 1964 film Dosti, produced by Rajshri Productions. Despite relatively unknown lead actors, the film's memorable songs like "Chahoonga Main Tujhe Shaam Savere" and "Rahi Manwa" made it a hit. Many initially thought Laxmikant–Pyarelal was a single person. They won their first Filmfare Award for Best Music Director for Dosti, beating industry giants like Shankar–Jaikishan and Madan Mohan. Their subsequent work in films like Lootera, which featured famous Lata Mangeshkar songs, also gained fame.

By 1966, Laxmikant–Pyarelal had firmly established themselves in Bollywood. They continued to earn acclaim for their music in films like Aaye Din Bahar Ke and Pyar Kiye Jaa. In 1967, they had a series of hits, including the Golden Jubilee musical hit Farz, and other big-star films like Anita and Shagird. They won their second Filmfare Award for the film Milan.

Laxmikant–Pyarelal, along with contemporaries like Rahul Dev Burman and Kalyanji-Anandji, represented a new era in Bollywood music, overshadowing earlier composers. They were frequently chosen by major film producers and consistently delivered exceptional music.

Their significant collaboration with lyricist Anand Bakshi led to some of Bollywood’s most iconic songs, appearing in over 250 films. Anand Bakshi wrote the lyrics for all the films that earned Laxmikant–Pyarelal Filmfare Awards, except for their first. #RajeshKhanna also had a long-standing professional relationship with the duo, choosing them as the music directors for 26 of his films.

Another fruitful partnership was with singer Asha Bhonsle, who voiced numerous hits composed by Laxmikant–Pyarelal, including chart-toppers like "Dhal Gaya Din" and "Hungama Ho Gaya." The latter song was re-recorded for the 2014 film Queen and became a massive hit again. Between 1980 and 1986, Asha Bhonsle was often the lead vocalist for their compositions. Laxmikant–Pyarelal also scored music for the Telugu film Majnu in 1987, which was well-received for its musical numbers.
