The Monsoon is the lifeline of people in Southern India.
Though some of the city people(lke Bangaloreans) don't feel much affected by it, there are others who feel greatly attached with it. The greenery it props up around lifts the mood of people.
For a change, a Kannada movie cashes on this. It's titled 'Mungaaru maLe". The lush green of Western Ghats along with rain has been captured well.
The movie became a big hit. The songs of the film also contributed to it's success.The music director-Mano Murthy, a California based Software engineer (ex-Cisco employee) has become so popular now. Some of the Lyrics written by the popular poet Jayanth Kaikini is quite soothing.
The monsoon rain has rained money to the film producer too!
There are quite a number of people are not tired of rewinding the music cassette n-number of times a day.
Some of my friends have seen the movie together along with their kids(and me too!).
My friend's son Rithwik is so attracted to the song that, he aims to beat the film's hero in Dancing!
I am putting some glimpses of his action at his home!
"Onde ondu saari kaNmunde baaro" .... ....
"kuNidu kuNidu baaro" ... ...
"Jeevake Rekke Tandavane
Baanigeari Haaruva Baaro
Olavea Vismayaa" .. .. ...
[Wish this guy brings new wings to my friend's life & to others too!]
A Last Note: Rithwik's father has a great extra eye for appreciating the winged ones.
You can visualize that eye's effect at http://www.naturephotographers.net and http://www.naturelyrics.com
