"I guess it's because we all want to believe that what we do is very important, that people hang on to our every word, that they care what we think.
The truth is, you should consider yourself lucky if you even occasionally get to make someone - anyone - feel a little better.
After that, it's all about the people that you've let into your life." - J.D. , "My Finale", Scrubs

Why This Kolaveri Di ... Soup-er, I say !!






For those haven't heard it yet, this is a new Tamil song that's gone viral in Youtube, thanks to quite a few unique features :


1. An excellent hummable song with a typical Tamil 'kuthu' style that will have you tapping your feet right from the start.

2. The video shows the recording itself rather than the movie video.

3. It's sung by this year's National Award winner for Best Actor Dhanush ( who  richly deserved it for his amazing performance in Aadukalam ) and you can just see him enjoying himself as he sings, even as his wife Aishwarya ( Rajnikanth's daughter ) and Shruti Hassan ( Kamal Hassan's daughter ) watch on.

4. Can you seriously beat those lyrics ? ( P.S. For Non-Tamilians, relax. You don't need to know the language. It's mostly 'Taminglish' anyway and besides, there are subtitles !! What more could you ask for ? )

So how'd you like it ?
