Indu Yenage Sri Govinda

Today is Janmashtami.A good time to listen to a Govinda Bhajan by the immortal Bhimsen Joshi

The lyrics in Kannada:

Indu Enage Govinda ninna padaara

Vindava tOrO mukundane

Sundara vadanane nandaGopana Kanda
mandarOdhara aananda indiara ramaNa

nondenayya naa bhavabandhanadoLu saluki
munde daari kaaNade kundide jagadoLu
kandanamtendenna kundugaLeNisade
tande kayo Krishna kandarpa janakane

mUDhatanadi balu hEDijIvananaagi
dRuDhabhakutiyanu maadalillavo hariyE
nODalillavo ninna paaDalillavo mahime
gaaDikaara Krishba bEDikombeno ninna

daari tappi naDede sEride kujanara
aaru kaayuvavarilla sEride ninagayya

Chennai Express-Lungi Dance

Saw Chennai Express in a single screen cinema.It was housefull with the crowd consisted primarily of people from Dharavi,India’s largest slum whose populace is largely Tamil speaking.

Amazed at the way crowds reacted to the movie.I guess one does not know India without watching its people react to movies !I am told Bhag Milkha Bhag touched a huge emotional chord amongst the people of the Punjab.

While my wife had a splitting headache from the movie,I enjoyed its mindless (and harmless) banter.For some reason,can’t get this tune out of this head….this happens when you have hundreds of people shouting Thalaiva !!
