K Viswanath: The Architect of Reinventing and Rediscovering Telugu Movies

My article on the Legendary Director K. Viswanath on his birth anniversary...

Achieving the entirety of any art is not merely screening on the eyes and bestowing it on the ears; any art becomes lively only when the mind is stirred and melted — thus paving the way for an artist to become an epic. Films are aptly known as an art of many arts. Beyond doubt, one has to master many arenas to become a film director. Setting a trend of one’s own in the expanse of film direction…

Chudikodutha Sudarkodi - Kothai and her love

When they say that they will always wait for you

But Andal waited all her life for him, for her Ranganatha(Vishnu/Krishna)

இதயம் இதயம் எரிகின்றதே இறங்கிய கண்ணீர் அணைக்கின்றதே உள்ளங்கையில் ஒழுகும் நீர்போல் என்னுயிரும் கரைவதென்ன இருவரும் ஒரு முறை காண்போமா இல்லை நீ மட்டும் என்னுடல் காண்பாயா கலையென்ற ஜோதியில் காதலை எரிப்பது சரியா பிழையா விடை நீ சொல்லய்யா

Roughly Translated.

My heart is burning, My tears are dripping like the water in my palm. Why is my soul also melting? Will both of us meet once? Otherwise, will you alone see my body? Is it right to burn love with a light called art? Is that correct? Or is that wrong? Tell me the answer to that....

The above lyrics are from the song Marghazhi Thingal Allava( Sangamam Movie Tamil)

South Indian cinema: Part 1

I think we (I) don't talk enough about my obsession with the South Indian film industry. I'm less of a star or fame powered fangirl and most of my obsessions start from very niche observations and qualities. Both me and my mom are good cinema enthusiasts, that being said, we love not just watching movies but also analyze them and talk about them in great lengths and detail; and it isn't always just about the actors but also the scenes, the cinematography, the dialogues and so on. We enjoy a good story based cinema that's more about carrying the characters in place and action than about how much hype a movie gets. I enjoy old movies, including monochrome movies of the yesteryears and the faded coloured classics of the 70's and 80's.

Let me go from one obsession to other. First, comes my unexplainable obsession with actors who are also trained dancers. That's a sexy characteristic because it adds an edge to the actor's identity over being just a movie star and IMHO, it also refines the depth of character and acting skills (many talented actors who aren't dancers do exist, this is just my view). I have this captivation with dancers because something in them, be it the unseeable depth of efforts and practice and hurdles they cross before they set foot on the stage or be it the inordinate amount of beauty they express and portray in both costumes and jewelry or be it the grace with which they carry themselves or be it the way the fluidity, fragility and fierceness of dance entwines with their soul and body making it indistinguishable, obvious and redefines their identity and adds meaning to their character for the better. Irrespective of gender, classical dance forms in my opinion, have a profound effect on the individual and somehow makes them all the more charming to me because it's art that flows in their body and art has that unique fragrance to which you can never turn a blind eye to. It also anchors you down to your inner zen because gender conforms and norms are all broken (atleast in Indian classical dances) as both male and female dancers play either roles in dances and it's all the more about expression and emotion than the role per se. And that I think is a very liberating thing and I love Indian classical dances for it.

So here goes the list: Kamal Haasan is a trained Bharatanatyam and Kathak dancer; the best of which is seen in his performance in the movie Sagara Sangamam which is a majorly dance based movie. My most favorite scene is when he humbles Sailaja when she opposes his critique. Padmini, one of the famous Travancore sisters, was a trained Bharatanatyam dancer and in her retired days also opened a dance school and taught abroad. Shobana, one of my favorite actresses, who is also the niece of the Travancore sisters is a trained Bharatanatyam dancer; she also received a national award for her performance in the Malayalam movie Manichitrathazhu which was the original for the famous Chandramukhi, Bhool Bhulaiya, Nagavalli, Aatmamitra etc. I rate her acting top notch because her expressions and her eyes often speak way more than the dialogues. Revathi, is again a trained Bharatanatyam dancer and has delivered multiple box office hits and is also one of my favorite actresses. Bhanupriya, who's pretty famous in tamil and telugu cinema, is a trained Kuchipudi dancer and appeared in the film Sitaara which went on to win the National award for that year. Jayalalitha, apart from her successful political career was a leading film actress in the tamil industry. She was trained dancer of multiple forms like Bharatanatyam, Kuchipudi, Mohiniyattam, Kathak etc. Sukanya, who famously starred against Kamal Haasan in Indian, is a trained Bharatanatyam dancer. Prabhu Deva, who we all know as the Michael Jackson of India, is a trained Bharatanatyam and Udupi dancer. Amala Akkineni, is a trained Bharatanatyam dancer and also has a degree bachelor degree for the same from Kalakshetra. Vineeth, who works mostly in tamil, telugu and malayalam films is a trained Bharatanatyam dancer; lesser known but he's Shobana's cousin and Padmini's nephew from her husband's side. Asin, who is well known for her role in Ghajini, is also a trained Bharatanatyam dancer. Jayam Ravi, now well known as the Ponniyin Selvan after the famous novel adaptation, is also a trained Bharatanatyam dancer.

This is in my list (can't think more, brain fried) do feel free to add more. Tagging @sister-of-satan @voidsteffy and @bipdf because I think y'all will enjoy reading this

The Most Heartening Friends' Meet-up Ever

Kuchela alsoknown as Sudama is a childhood friend of Krishna. They were classmates at Sandipani Maharshi's ashramam. But upon reaching adulthood, Krishna became the ruler of Dvaraka, and Sudama remained an impoverished villager. His wife implored him to meet his old friend and request for some financial assistance.

He sets out to Dwaraka with a bundle of rice flakes. Krishna and Rukmini welcome him with so much love and treat him royally, which embarassed him. He doesn't mention anything about his situation or the gift of rice flakes. The poem mentioned in the post deals with their casual conversation.

But all knowing Krishna asks for rice flakes and Rukmini stops him from eating too much. Kuchelan returns to his home after some time, without asking for anything. But he is amazed when he reaches his village for his home have been conveyed to a palace with a lot of riches. He and his wife enjoy their newly found wealth and status with humility.

This Kathakali performance based on the story of Krishna and Kuchela is called "Kuchelavritham"

A shorter modern version (starts from 'Medura Bhakti Ulla')

Ajitha Hare Jaya Madhava Vishnu!

Unconquerable one! Hari! Jaya! Madhava! Vishnu!

Ajamukhadeva Nata!

He who is worshiped by other gods like Brahma

Vijaya Sarathe Sadhu Dwijan Onnu Parayunnu

Charioteer of Arjuna, this poor Brahmin is telling you

Sujana Sangamam Ettam Sukrithanivaha Sulabhamathanu Niyatham 

 Association with noble people is indeed meritorious and rare

Paladinamayi Njanum Balabhadranuja! Ninne

Nalamodu Kanmathinu Kaliyalle Ruchikkunnu.

Brother of Balarama, I have been yearning to visit you since a long time. I am not joking.

Kaalavishamam Kondu Kamam Sadichathilla

I was unable to fulfill my desire (to come and meet you) due to difficulties and obstacles

Neela Neeradavarna! Mridula Kamalaruchiranayana!Nrihare!

The one with the color of blue clouds! The one with eyes like soft lotus petals! The one had took the form of a lion!

Adyapi Bhawal Kripa Vidyothanamakum Padyati Elkkuvathinu Bhagyam Undakuka Moolam

Now, since I am fortunate be enlightened by the earthen dust your grace,

Chaidyare! Janmaphalamee Dwijanenthu Venam?

Enemy of Chedi King, Sishupalan. What gift can this Brahmin desire more?

Hridhyam Tavaka Vrittam Mozhikilula Uraga Patium Adhuna

Your news is dearest to my heart. If those news are told, even Anantha will be swayed.

Medurabhaktiyulla Madrisham Sukhamanye

For the most devoted ones like me, there can be no other feeling than pleasure.

Vadamillaho Dukham Badhikkayilla Noonam

There is no arguing about it (no doubt). We won't  be affected by sorrow

Yadavadhipia Ninne! Hridi Chinta Nidanena,

The leader of the Yadavas! If I perpetually think of you in my mind, Modam me Valarunnu! Karuna Varanamarunasahaja Ketana!

My Happiness increases! Please have mercy, the one who has Aruna's brother (Garuda) the insignia!

I am from Kerala.

This is now COMPLETE! Aaah I'm so happy and also mentally ready for PS-2 now as it comes out in April. In case they don't treat my Poonguzhali well, I have this to fall back on. 😁

My only quibble with Kalki’s masterpiece was that I longed for a happy ending for Arulmozhi Varman and Poonguzhali. This is a story for those like me, that rewrites certain events from Book Three, Chapter 42, onwards to explore what Arulmozhi Varman’s attraction to Poonguzhali and the latter’s devotion to the Prince could have led to....
