11 - Nenjukulle (Kadal)

Potri Paadadi Ponne

The girl has tied up her lover in her heart? Milk goes to sleep in the night? What does Tuberculosis have to do with love? How can a girl's heart become a mirror sprinkled with water? In our special episode for Deepavali, we answer these questions as we discuss the Nenjukulle song from Kadal (an upcoming Mani Ratnam film). And as a special Deepavali gift to all our listeners we have lyricist Dr.Madhan Karky share his favorite lines and some inside info on the song. This song's lyrics are based on a kavidhai Vairamuthu wrote some years back called "Mounathil Pudhaindha Kavidhaigal".
