Why This Kolaveri Di

The video shows the footage from the recording of the 'making of the song’, Why This Kolaveri Di. But nonetheless, if you haven't heard this song yet, you are missing the latest viral hit. Blogosphere is buzzing with this song. The song is from a movie called 3, written and sung by Dhanush and has been composed by Anniruddh. Check out this video shot during the recording of the song with the music composer Anirudh, Dhanush, Shruti Hassan, Aishwarya and Sound Engineer Sivakumar.


Although, it is a Tamil Song, everyone Indian listening to this song is enjoying the song whether they know Tamil or not.  Persuaded by the sudden leakage of the audio of numerically titled Tamil movie ‘3’ (Moondru) with Dhanush as lead and the singer himself, everyone had this quintessential urge of a typical twenty five something tamil homosapien to plunge into the musical ocean and swim across the much hyped song bearing the title pregnant with a British English heavily doped with southern dialect madras slang ‘ Why this Kolaveri di? ’.



Lyrics Of "Why This Kolaveri Di" From "3"

It's bizarre lyrics that really clicks the magic. The song with the Tamil word, "Kolaveri", which almost translates into "murderous rage", makes for a hilarious listen, complete with its typical kuthu flavor, drum beats, Tamil accent and funny analogies. It starts off with Danush's rap - "Yo boyz, I am singing song... Soup song... Flop song... Why this Kolaveri kolaveri aaa di". Ludicrous lyrics like "cow-u cow-u, holy cow-u..." are even fast finding their way into everyone's status messages on networking sites.

flop song


“Why this kolaveri di” is one of the most trending videos on YouTube right now. If you haven't heard the song, then you are missing out on something. The song is from a Tamil movie named Three, directed by Aishwariya(Rajinikanth’s daughter) and lead role is played by Dhanush (Aishwari's husband). Dhanush has penned down the lyrics of this song. Anirudh, young music director lent music for the movie “Three”.

The Song is sung by  KK and composed by the trio  Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy . The more former version of this song in Don: The Chase Begins was sung by Shaan who sang that passionately but this time in Don: The Chase Continues KK sang it in a very effortless way. Song does not sound that powerful. Perhaps the makers of the song did not want it sound potent and ablaze.

The song in itself is a heavenly avatar of the mythical hymn that rang the golden walls of heaven, sung with music exhaling from the holy harps and celestial melody from the gongs, supplemented to lutes and bells. This song predicts to stress the very fact that, music is a form of tacit consciousness, which can be realised only by the humans who can perceive the real core of such aural delicacy.  The song, of course, will be played for many months in countless functions not only in Tamil Nadu but throughout India at festivals, weddings, rallies, dance floor mixes, ringt ones and elsewhere. Countless displaced Diaspora of Tamilians will listen and opine, though it has no bearing on their lives. Simply because, the question is not what it means to you, but it was made in India and therefore somehow it represents you, though in reality it doesn't. Somewhere, between those lines, lays the India of today.

This song caught the social and electronic network by storm. It's attention-getting lyrics and feet rapping music and  with more than 12,000 likes in five days of its release, the  Kolaveri Di  song has become one of the most looked for videos on YouTube. Actor Dhannush also lent his voice to this song. A lot of people even began putting up the lyrics of this song as their status content. This shows the penetration it had among the listeners. The title song of Don 2 is released by Excel Entertainment. The title track of earlier Don was sung by Shaan and now this time the song is sung by Vishal Dadlani  and he sang it well too. But all the credit goes to trio composers Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy.  SEL are such great composers India have. After the beautiful music of ZNMD they are back with a totally different theme.

As Dhanush says, it's a song fit for bathroom singers. It’s simple beats make it catchier. Dhanush's description of heartbreak through Kolaveri Di is extremely funny. Heartbreak is a phenomenon almost everyone can relate to, this has further fueled the popularity of Kolaveri Di.
 Commentators have already called Kolaveri as the hymn of the youth. Looking beyond all these exaggerations, we feel it is a bit shallow and the longevity of the song in the music charts remains to be seen. This song may work well for the first few listens. But, it is tiring to imagine that singer Dhanush has sung half a dozen more songs in this movie. It is even wearier to envision that the young Poetu has also written all the lyrics. Hope rest of the songs in the album has something new to offer.

Why This Cola Very D
The Kolaveri composition uses country music to good effect, embellishing it with nadaswaram, saxophone and percussion.  The gravy in the dish are the silly lyrics (``Yo boyz, I am singing song, soup song, flop song, Mama notes edhuthuko, apdiye kaiyla snacks edhuthuko). But it is the garnish in the form of the word `Kolaveri' which is most catchy and Dhanush singing the number in a lazy style lends it the x-factor.

Using a combo of Tamil and English (which with due respect to those who devour `The Hindu' every morning, is called Tanglish), the song gets you hooked from the word go. Proof of the pudding is in the eating and the video which shows Dhanush, Aishwarya, Shruti Haasan (who plays Dhanush's love interest in the film) and Anirudh in the recording studio has gone viral.

Plus, every man with girl trouble will get it," he quips.

National Award winning Best Actor Dhanush and his director wife Aishwarya R Dhanush have an ace up their sleeve - the hit single from their film upcoming film, 3.

Aishwarya Dhanush makes her debut as director with the film. It stars her husband Dhanush in the lead role, along with Shruti Haasan, the singer-actor daughter of superstar Kamal Haasan.

The song has been climbing steadily since then. "1,02,000 views in one day on YouTube..#Whythiskolaveridi...," Aishwarya Dhanush posted on Friday.

Dont you dare talk about south Indian people as a whole. It's our wish either to support the song or not. If you don't like the song, just share your views about the song. You have no business talking about AR Rahman or South Indians.

All the chennaiites boasting about Dhanush getting national award for Aadukkalam. Let me remind you that the judges in the National award jury are not experts and just a bunch of useless people... I have seen far better performances from Kamal Haasan which deserve National award hands down

I cant wait for a Hindi version of the song.

nice song but music could have been better.

एक दम फालतू गीत है. बकवास.

Rajni said...

Why this Kolaveri Di means, why this murderous rag. The melody was constructed inside twenty minutes and in no time we were holding recoding. Interestingly, Dhanush is undoubtedly an actor or actress without recognized for this vocal range capabilities but composed the words of the tune in this track and sang it as well.
