So guys and girls, you must have heard of this word enough. And we don’t want to further add to your curiosity of why exactly this song has become viral. Instead we would like to wrap up the entire thing by jotting down for you few good reasons explaining why you are urged to watch the video and hear it from your friends again and again. From Facebook, YouTube to eminent Bloggers; all have made “Kolaveri di” their pull-element. Let’s peep deep into how a simple video with such gibberish (seemingly English) wordings made its way into the web world, so much so that, this blog on urbanity has chosen it as its subject today.
First of all what does the word ‘Kolaveri’ mean? Let us help you out with its literal translation (in case you haven’t browsed for it yet). Kolaveri = Kolai + Veri. Kolai means “murder” and veri means “the urge” to do it. So it gets translated to - “anger that amounts a person to kill someone”.
Now that the meaning is clear in your head, let’s move on to other factors making it a famous sought-after watch. First – the wordings are simple, where English words mingle aesthetically with south Indian accent, adding to the interest. From moon to cow to eyes of a girl, they have chosen random things to explain how sad a boy is feeling after having his heart broken from a girl who seem to have no regrets over her decision. Sad!
Now the second aspect – It’s a song recorded for an upcoming Tamil movie (as the web says). The singer (in the video) is actually a Tamil actor, Dhanush, who also stars in the movie. Out of the two girls shown in the video, one is actor Kamal Hassan’s daughter & the other is actor Rajnikanth’s daughter. We guess you don’t need any more reasons to unfold the mystery behind ‘Kolaveri Di’ going viral.
Besides, let us know your views on this song.
