Jeez, what a Lovely song this is... The song has the voice of the female lead of the movie (Andrea Jeremiah). The other appreciable character in the movie is Fahad... This guy has come a very long long way: From this to now... A must watch for all the people out there in love...You will relate something or the other with the protagonists.
God! Seems like I will have a tough time handling the dhoti ("Mundd" as it is called in Malayalam) in the coming times ahead... :-P Everything is fine until the knot of the Mundd loosens up... :-D I still remember, once when I was in Kerala and went to buy something, and the damned shirt didn't had pockets. The Mundd will have a little loose space at its end where usually people keep stuffs like money. So I did the same thing, and on reaching the store, I did an MJ finding it tough to find the money where I had placed it...Damn it! I opened it completely and there comes the currency notes, down my legs.... :-P Needless to say, the shopkeeper was hysteric with laughter... Uhhhh, how do people manage it while walking, sitting and sleeping?
Haka is the traditional dance form of the Maori of New Zealand. It is a posture dance performed by a group with vigorous movements and stamping of the feet with rhythmically shouted accompaniment. The All black Rugby team of New Zealand is famous for performing the Haka before the opponent team. See the video above. It really looks like a 'war-dance' against the opponents...This type of Haka is known as 'Kamate' Haka, and the verbal shout go like this: Ringa pakia! (Slap the hands against the thighs!) Uma tiraha! (Puff out the chest!) Turi whatia! (Bend the knees!) Hope whai ake! (Let the hip follow!) Waewae takahia kia kino! (Stamp the feet as hard as you can!) Ka mate, ka mate ('I die, I die,) Ka ora' Ka ora' ('I live, 'I live,) Ka mate, ka mate ('I die, 'I die) Ka ora Ka ora" ('I live, 'I live,) Tēnei te tangata pūhuruhuru (This is the hairy man) Nāna i tiki mai whakawhiti te rā (Who caused the sun to shine again for me) Upane
