It has been a couple of months
since I wrote something, and I can’t just express the happiness I am having
right now to be back in front of my laptop and writing back again. I have been on a
little hiatus from writing recently, but today I saw a music video which I
thought I should pen down some thoughts and share it to you.
The Malaysian Tamil Music scene
has really been blossoming in recent years. Especially the Hip Hop & Rap
genre ever since Yogi B & Natchathra went big and today we have the likes
of PU4LYF and Sri Rascool rocking the international scenes.
Equally at the same time, the
more melodious genre has been winning more fans as days goes by. Music Directors
like Shameshan Mani Maran, Ztish & Varmman Elangkovan has been winning plaudits
from the public in their recent feature film music work.
Along this genre, today I came
across a newly released music video titled “Azhagaane Iravil” which literally
means A Beautiful Night. Written, composed and sang by Ruvela, Azhagaane
Iravil also has music & beats by Shane Xtreme and violin by Varmman Elangkovan
with visuals by Soma Kathan.
The music video is directed by Ruvela which stars
himself along with Archana Ganesan and it is released by IBP Studios, who in the past
did release the hit song titled “Pogiren” by Mugen Rao.
Many people knows Ruvela as a host
and emcee while I myself know the man as an actor and singer through Ghora. It
truly surprises me that Ruvela can also write lyrics, compose and direct too as
you can see from this music video. That is a lot of talent for one man to have
and I have to congratulate you for being a jack of all trades.
Now coming to the music video
itself, what I like about it is how the portrayal of the relationship that was
shown. The beautiful chemistry shared by Ruvela and Archana further elevates
the love that the character shares in the story line. The music video starts off with
Ruvela sharing through a video call to Archana on how she came into his life
and made him a better and successful man and there is so much love between the
characters during the dialogue exchange. But there is where darkness hits them.
Couple of masked men break into her house and Ruvela rushes to her place.
From here on, the songs starts and
the visuals shows the type of relationship which they have which is something
any individual would love to have. It is a very mature and loving relationship
which has lots of fun and kiddish moments too. Maturity and fun is such a
powerful combination in a relationship and I appreciate the concept chosen by
Ruvela.
Throughout the visuals, the songs
goes on and the we reach the end whereby we learn the fate that has landed upon Archana. This part was really painful to watch yet so beautiful composed and
captured by the team. Well done Azhaganee Iravil team. The climax was my favorite
moment in the whole music video.
What also I loved is that in the
space of 6 minutes, Ruvela manages to make me forget that something terrible
has happened to Archana and brought to a very beautiful pleasant visual and story line
only to come back to that dark moment. To achieve this type of journey in the
viewers mind within a 7 minutes time frame is something I will applaud. Well
done again.
Everyone who knows me knows that
I am no expert in the Tamizh language, but I will leave you with this one line
from the song which has made a real impact on me.
“Yen Piranthen, yena kettu kettu thedinen, Nee vanthathum, yen piravi
payanum adainthathe”
