Echoes of the Maestro

Echoes of the Maestro – Song 54 – Naan Thaan Toppu

Last week I couldn’t publish two issues, so I’m going to compensate them with this issue and one more on Saturday.

Naan Than Toppu is one of those Rajni songs that falls into the Disco song troupe and also a genre called teasing the lead lady. This genre is often part of Tamil Cinema and is used to showcase the macho of the Male lead, even though this song is not as crass as Poomaalai. Sitting in 2024 and can’t fathom because they are the product of their times.

Thanikaatu Raaja is famous for having an ensemble cast and not painstakingly putting all the names instead they went with “Ungal Abimana Natchathirangal Nadikkum” aka “Actors you already know”. This song has the usual SPB fun and makes all those funny mimicries he does.
