MAARGAZHI THINGAL

It has been our wish to re-introduce the treasures of our south Indian culture to the present generation Last year was Ravivarma s iconic paintings re-created with South Indian beauties and this year , It is Andal’s thiruppaavai sung by actors who are not necessarily professional or Carnatic singers

Eight actors from the south Indian film industry sing the first paasuram of Thiruppaavai by Andal in this single The actors are Uma iyer revathy Nithya menon Remya Nambeesan Anu Hasan Kaniha Jaishri Suhasini

Shobanas abhinayam for the 8 peoples rendering is a highlight

We did not rehearse nor record in a professional studio Most of us recorded our lines on our mobile phones and it was beautifully put together by Subhasri Thanikachalam

Music mastered and arranged by Ravi G

Bagath did the cinematography for most of our shots But the actors themselves shot their portion on their phones or cameras We are not professional singers .But our passion for poetry devotion and the importance of the margazhi month inspired us to create this audio and video Kevindas edited this from Qatar so this is truly a remotely administered audiovisual

We would love to make this a yearly occurrence Next year we will come up with another beautiful Paasuram from Andals Thiruppaavai
