Geethanjali (1989) Om Namaha - Favorite Song Reaction | Nagarjuna Akkineni | Ilaiyaraaja

[@prathimabakeeru678]

All songs wonderful in this movie .... especially rain song.....i want both of you watch all song's.....

[@Wiseenoughtobefoolish]

Omg it’s amongst my fav songs. Nagarjuna become so darn popular with the ladies with this one movie. It’s so weird that one can translate some of the words used in this song as to what they mean but not find an equivalent word in English. Literature is tricky. Can make something sound so beautiful in one language and a literal translation can completely make it tacky in English

[@nehapappu5059]

OMG - this is my favourite song of all time. Ilaiyaraaja at his best. I am sure you heard the beat of the song is a simple heart beat. The songs in this movie blew away South India at the time this movie came out and are rage even today after 35 years.

[@sudhakarD599]

The tamil version of this movie was Ithayathai Thirudathey. Oh priya priya, Oh pappa lali, Kaviyam padava thendrale also good songs from this movie. Beautiful composition by maestro Ilayaraja. Please react to the tamil song Azhagu ayiram (Kamal Hassan) from Ullasa Paravaigal. You will definitely wonder about the creation of the music in 1981 by maestro Ilayaraja.

I didn't know about this song being Maharashtrian. But I liked it. Anyways, I have a song request. Manzilein Apni Jagaha Hain, from Sharaabi. Kishore Kumar won the filmfare award for this one. He was the only nominee in the category for 4 other songs from the same movie. On screen is Amitabh Bachchan... His performance in the song makes it even more special. Here is the link with english Subtitles. kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZoapinVrd8ifqpYsi=1aQ0HYWr4uBMsyvU

I guess People didn’t mind this kissing in this song because …. (1) of the situation in the movie( he is terminally ill and is going to die soon) and the story nullified the kiss (2) second of all, it’s not vulgar (no showing of a direct lip to lip kiss) and (3) third of all, its a Mani Ratnam movie.😊

[@consiglieretomhagen9350]

Yup it's fun.. more like they're faking a kiss.. In main stream movies, a passionate and more realistic kiss scene I can remember is the one in the opening sequence of the Malayalam movie ' njan gandharvan' by the legendary director p padmarajan. If subtitles available a must watch movie.

[@gayatridevulapalli9067]

remember this was such a scandalous song during the time.. ..how can anyone do this ? Indians never kiss ...hahha.. Maniratnam never did what everyone did ..he always did something what others never did..

[@MoonLight-fj4ki]

Please watch this movie..feel good best love story

They did not make a mistake... This is a beautiful song from a beautiful movie called Gitanjali, written and directed by Mani Ratnam

[@ahas1972]

It was also later very badly remade in Hindi

[@Sunny-voice-k9w]

There is a Dracula song in this movie which is so perfect for Halloween

[@vss1902]

Pooja - You are referring to Anjali Anjali Pushpanjali that's a different song altogether

[@sridevis1482]

This movie is called "" Geetanjali "" in Telugu & dubbed in Tamil as ""Idhaiyathai thirudathey"" , l remember the skirt, tops with a dupatta --- the costume for the heroine of this movie was a hit as geetanjali dress in those days ❤ all songs are super and great, Maestro magic ❤️❤️❤️

After this movie increased love suicides

Intimacy scenes are actually connected to very interesting historic moments in Indian cinema. Silent films era in the early 1900s saw huge popularity in Indian cinema, Indians in villages were watching Italian and French cinema since 1896 (within a year of the advent of motion picture technology by Lumiere Brothers in France). Soon enough, urban Indians started accessing camera technology and making movies. Since there was no way yet to merge moving images and sound (it took a few decades to develop playback and talkies films) the early films were silent, with a live-orchestra playing at screenings to enhance the drama. During this early period of silent cinema, Indians already had actors on-screen kissing and wearing rather glamorous clothes for those times. Actresses who portrayed roles were largely of Anglo-Indian and Jewish-Indian descent and were open to being seen in the public (no other Indian community of women dared to lead such a public life, except the courtesans (who are also connected to this story!). These Anglo-Indian actresses ruled the screens for nearly 20 odd years (they were bigger stars than their male counterparts apparently, earning higher salaries too!) and were very comfortably doing intimate scenes. Film playback technology evolved in the 1930s with the first talkies film Alam Ara. Now, talking and singing actors were needed. Overnight, due to poor diction and an inability to speak and sing in Indian languages, the silent era women actors who were superstars, lost their jobs! All work went to another group of talented artists who had been socially ostracized by the British as 'Nautch girls' a pejorative term implying loose women, and many of them were rendered social criminals overnight. These women were from the Tawaif and Devadasi communities, and were the courtesans! They comprised of musicians, dancers, and drama groups, had great voices, dancing skills, and would use elaborate seduction techniques to please their patron kings and noblemen (nawab). The new talkies industry employed these dancers/singers and their daughters. Many of them came from a Muslim background (in Hindi cinema especially) and became actresses. They expressed through dance, songs, hand gestures and stylised, elaborate facial expression, using their dance-theatre forms for the art of public seduction. A new type of grammar for intimacy and courtship thus emerged and developed its own aesthetic that came from the Kings' courts, live, public performances...this style was not explicit in its show of intimacy like in the silent cinema period, but alluded to it. Middle class Indians were, by now, turning "respectable" in demand for their Independence from the British. They felt a need to clean up their act so to speak (colonial shame due to cultural judgement by the British). Dancing girls and their "Khota" (houses of art and culture) soon turned a slur and "Khota" implied 'house of the whore'. What was a more fluid Indian (elitist, largely) society was cleaned up due to judgmental Victorian morality and its gaze. Cinema was now a medium to propagate morality and narratives of respectability and on-screen kissing was banned as vulgar by the Indian Cinematograph Act. A censorship act had been put in place by the British in the early 1900s (after cinema got really popular with Indian audiences) to both control immoral Indian culture on-screen (Brits didn't like Indians watching intimate scenes on screen) and to curb any independence related propaganda that could be snuck in. Despite this, actresses like Devika Rani and her husband, Himanshu Rai (who studied cinema in Germany btw) were doing kissing scenes even into the 40s. A German cinematographer, Josef Wirshing worked extensively with them. (Franz Osten was also another German DoP who worked in a lot of silent cinema). The silent films' trend of showing direct intimacy faded away with the coming of the Talkies era, only to resurface in 2010 or so when the Indian cinematograph act (censorship act) was finally redrafted by Sharmila Tagore (I think).
