Balalaika - If you thought it was just a catchy word...

I thought it was only a catchy word that Rahman usually uses to zap up his peppy numbers when I heard the word Balalaika (from Sivaji). However, much to my surprise, I recently found that Balalaika is a musical instrument of Russian origin.


I wonder do Rahman's other 'catchy phrases' like' kuluvalile' from Muthu have an origin of their own? Something interesting to be researched!!!!

Kamalinee mukherjee - there she was.....


Last night as I was watching the already-watched 'Phir Milenge' on Zoom, the girl who played Shilpa's bubbly cute younger sister caught my attention. I was like, wait, she looks familiar...Of course I knew her.. She was Kamilinee Mukherjee who appeared in less than a flicker role in Kamal's Vettayadu Vilayadu...
Did anyone notice this b4???
