Why This Kolaveri Di?

Ah, the melancholic and slow singing style by actor Dhanush for his new movie 3.

Word has it this song became an overnight sensation due to it's bizarre and comical lyrics quipped with catchy modern Indian tunes. Before being a judge for this song myself, I read the Huntington Post, BBC news and my very own Facebook wall flooded with the link for this video. Curiosity killed the cat but since I'm in no way a feline so I ended up writing a blog post about it.

Flop Song

Well, a lot of people are wondering what the song means. It's not hard to decipher really(if the song intends to have any meaning at all).

Boy meets girl, boy gets heartbroken by girl. Boy laments his bruised heart by binge drinking to numb his pain. While in a drunken stupor, he laments that she's evil(girl-u heart-u black-u). Our Devdass wannabe here also wonders how many boys are getting their hearts broken by a girl and going on a melancholy state like him.

Well, people are giving it mixed reviews - what is happening to the quality of music??? What is this song about? And more questions than I care to post here.

Well peeps allow me the honour of being extremely blunt here. CALM YO TITS!

It's obviously a satire, a mere joke of a song. Actor Dhanush himself said he only took 3 minutes to pen this down.

Seriously people, the song was sang in such juvenile lyrics and silly on-the-spur-of-the-moment melody.

Relax and remove that stick up your ass and enjoy the comedy! Yours Truly laughed really hard at this funny song and enjoyed the bizzareness of it all!

I suppose it takes a certain kind of sense of humor to enjoy slapstick comedy.

Oh well.
