Realities Around Us
If you’re Tamil and you’ve heard Sorgame Endraalum from “Ooru vittu Ooru vandhu,” then Entha soundarya nodu is for Kannadigas. This song is all about the beauty of Karnataka. This was my first choice from the album to feature. However, I chose “Heloru Keloru” for being one of the rarest Kannada Cabaret songs.
Dheepam (1977) was initially supposed to be Ilaiyaraaja’s debut movie before Annakili. However, due to delays, Annakili ended up being released first, and it became a huge success, making Ilaiyaraaja a household name with its banger of an album.
Illayaraja is known for some of his hit folk music songs but this one hits on a different level. Unfortunately, I never have listened to this song and also got to know that this song was banned from being aired on All India Radio for its supposedly vulgar lyrics.
This time we are jumping to a Kannada song composed by Illayaraja for the movie Maathu Tappada Maga. Interestingly, this album marks the Maestro’s first venture into Kannada music. I recently came across a song from this album that was reused in Tamil, which is a popular song.
