Aayitha Ezhuthu - Part1

Long is the list of my favorite movies. And topping the list would be surely Manirathnam's movies. I recently found out my best-loved movie from the listing. AAYITHA EZHUTHU(2004). Due to umpteen reasons. The concludes can't be wrapped up in a single post. So yaa in parts. Three playscripts made into a single flick. But hey it's difficult for me to put my dearie into just 3 posts, I am in the thought of sharing all those characters, songs, lyrics, picturing and the nuances, niceties, insights...anything and everything. First part would be definitely one particular song(I m kinda obsessed to all numbers in the movie). This is the 'GREEN PART'. For those who have watched the movie, will definitely know about the shades orange, green and blue. Green is the vibrant and my personal favorite. It solely belongs to Michael Vasanth( Surya). The urge of an individual to change politics by not just cerebrating and blaming but my making an entry. 'Youngsters in Politics', if there is any song that could be played in the background it would be definitely 'Jana Gana Mana', an ideological one. Stupefying lyrics by Vairamuthu(in our jargon, 'room pottu yosiparo??:), a blend in the vocals, ARR and Karthik(as usual great modulation by our guru), amazing cinematography by Ravi.K.Chandran(India in her villages!!) and vibrating music by Rahman( the stroll from the slow to the fast pace, the chorus) Popularly known as the YUVA (hindi version) song. The cynosure, the soul, the centrepiece of the movie... JANA GANA MANA...



Oh yuva yuva oh oho...
(Oh Youth)

Jana gana mana
Janangalai ninai

Oh yuva yuva oh oho...

Aayutham edu aanavam sudu

Irulai erithu vidu
(Burn down the darkness of ignorance)
Aezhaikkum vaazhvukkum

(Reduce the distance between the poor and his life)
Nilai niruthu
(Make him stand on his own)
Adi kottaththil vittathai sattathin vattathai udaithu
(Break the hold of powerful on the law)

Kaatukkul nuzhaikire kaatredhuvum
Kaalani edhuvum anivathillai
(Wild fire spreading in forest never comes announcing)
Aayiram ilainjarkal thuninthu vittaal
Aayutham edhuvum thaevaiyillai
(If young men dare to defy,no need of any weapon...)

Oh yuva yuva oh yuva...

Vaetrumai vidu vetriyay thodu

Thoazhaa poaraadu
(Friend, never give up...)
Malaykalil nuzhaikindre nadhiyene
Suyavazhi amaithu, padai nadathu
(Just like the streams from the mountains, make your own way)
Adi vetrikku pakkathil
Mutrathin sutrathai niruthu
(Win and keep winning against all odds...)

Nallavar yaavarum udhungikolle
Narikalin naataamai thodangividum
(If good men give up, jackals will rule the roost)
Vaalipha kootani vaaneduthaal
(If an army of youth spread on the sky)
Valappakkam bhoomi thirumbi vidum
(Earth will start rotating to the right)

Oh yuva yuva oh yuva...
