Since yesterday, when Raghuvaran's name was mentioned...I've been trying to remember a song from his movie that I really like a lot when I was a child.
No doubt he is a talented actor and of all his roles, I liked him the most in the movie "Thotta Chinungi" which is probably 20 years old now.
Anyway, Thotta Chinungi is the Tamil name for the "Touch-Me-Not" plant, otherwise known as the "humble plant" or the "shameful plant" because of its leaves' tendency to fold inward when touched or shaken.
It denotes sensitivity and the plant has many ayurvedic home uses including treatment of cancer and snake bite.
I finally found this song after many years from "Thotta Chinungi" and it was like discovering a long, lost treasure!
I would like to dedicate this song to all the sensitive, sweet and very special souls out there.
It's a beautiful song with meaningful lyrics.

And yes, Happy Women's Day to everyone!
I'm not sure what it means anymore, because if it is a day to show appreciation to women then there needs to be a "Happy Men's Day" too, don't you think?
It is quite obvious that there is still a lot of tension and inequality and that's why voices are spoken out on this day.
Nothing much has changed though.
Delhi still has at least 5 rape cases happening every day for the past 2 months of this year!! And we are in 2015 now.
I'm sharing another one of my favourite childhood songs from the year 1990.
It's 25 years old, but the lyrics are very relevant to today's age as well.
It's a fun, filmi, romantic song of Rajnikanth-Juhi Chawla in the super flop movie "Nattukku Oru Nallavan"...
loved SPB's voice modulation from a drunk rogue to how he swiftly changes his tone to suit into Rajni's superstar image.
I think this movie came when Rajnikanth was at his peak of superstardom and my god, he looks incredibly handsome and stylish in that police costume!
No actor who has worn a police suit in the last 25 years could have looked as smart as Rajnikanth does in the song.
I think I had a major childhood crush on him back then...
and this song reminds me why.
Enjoy and Happy Women's Day to everyone!
