Please react to Mega star chiranjeevi song from Telugu movie Lankeshwarudu.. song name padahaarella vayasu song from 1980s.. dance composed by Prabhu Deva.. the dance u say hrthik is doing now chiranjeevi has done it in 1980s.. just watch it u will be blown away by the dance. U watched his movie syraa remember guys
Being a kid of 90s era, I can feel the nostalgia man!! It was really the golden days of music industry, seeing Prabhudeva & A R Rehman sir uniting & creating a musical masterpiece like this was a treat for music lovers like us..Jai Hind..
Someobe elaborate on the movie... they were askng for it many times.... i guess she dances classical .. the place is school of classical songs and dances... when he performs this... she felt like the classical art was insulted and she got offended..
And this is how A R Rahman introduced rap to mainstream commercial Tamil Cinema. This song makes a statement where the hero is mocking traditional dance establishments. That is why foreigners are shown... they are there to learn traditional dance and are seen enjoying the rap.

Theres a lot of places in India where people from all over the world including Europe and the US who come to learn Indian classical dances and music. It is a common sight in cities like Varanasi etc.
LOL! Okay this movie is set around a Bhartnatyam (classical dance) school. Thats also why you see all the white people because - fun fact - a ton of people from around the world go to South India to learn classical Indian art forms, dance, instruments, singing, etc. Because they need to live there for years, and also train like the locals, you'll see a ton of them dressed in Indian clothes, saris etc. The actress is a traditionalist - believes classical dance should be kept pure, is for the 'upper class' etc etc. Prabhudeva plays an average Joe type guy who wants to lern dance but also bring his own style - aka breaking away from the more traditional mores. Its a fun watch!
Agreed!! just one correction... A lot of people from around the world come to India to learn different art forms not specifically southern states but from different regions
That’s shot at Kalakshetra. The modern day spiritual headquarters of Bhratanatyam. More white people per sqm there than anywhere else in India. They have been there since pre independence with Annie Beasant and the theosophical society just next door.
It’s the classiest modernised and most sophisticated ‘crass’ or ‘slapstick’ song you will ever hear. So spectacular mad weird and timeless .. Only ARR can diversify this way and make it memorable
The song situation in the movie is Prabhu deva fell in love with the heroine. she is a daughter of governor of the state. To meet her prabhu deva joins the classical dance school prabhudeva dont know classical dance to impress her in other way he dance pettairap dance its usually done for deadbody funeral procession from home to graveyard.
Pettai means" slum or hamlet". The hero falls in love with a government official daughter. The song is in the place where the girl learns bharathanatyam. The hero goes there to disturb and make fun of her.
AR Rahman mixed Western hip hop beats to classical Indian instrumentation. This was in the early 90s and this was never heard of before, at least not this good. ROJA may have been his first but this album immediately brought him to the top
This is one of those movies where Rahman's music changed the face of tamil music. This is to tamil music what matrix was to hollywood actions flicks. This move is almost 30 years old and the songs still feel so contemporary. The song was a perfect representation of life in the Chennai slumlands
ankur saxena it’s another movie where AR Rahman composing was on another level.... The movie and the music gave a big hit in south India. And u should also listen to “Roja” where he started his carrier as a music composer.... and this movie’s song composing became sensational at tat time....
@@aishanjim9343 Oh Yes ! that was Rehman Sir's debut movie .. how can i forget that movie ...it was made by my all time favourite director Shree maniratnam ji and had my childhood crush ..The Arvind Swamy .
yes, imagine how weird it was back in the 90's. Rahman sort of introduced western fusion songs back in those days which opened up a new type of genre in Tamil films which caught many younger generations at that time. Prior to Rahman's music, mostly was on classical based songs and commonly made by Ilayaraja (another legend in Tamil Music) Rahman literally changed the style of music back then.
U guys may have forgotten this but when reading about Brodha-V he had said he was inspired by a song called Pattai Rap and now u have heard it. Hope u can see the musical style inspiration.
This movie has many specialities..... Director Shankar A R Rahman - This Album conists all types of songs like Indian classicals, Carnatic , western,Rap and Folk - super hit songs Unni Krishnan - Male singer- National award winning song "Ennavale " Prabhu Deva and Nagma introduced in lead roles Thanks for recollecting old memories of early 90's
Please check out Chanda Re (or the Tamil version Vennilave) with Prabhu Deva who got his first National Award for the dance choreography. It also stars Kajol and the music is composed by A.R Rahman.
Always love to see prabhudeva and "VADIVELU" dance... VADIVELU is my favourite underrated actor when comes to world stage... Pls watch all song with prabhudeva Deva and vadivelu dance
It's from the same movie as the song mukaala mukaabla, and ya it's Prabhu devas first movie kadhalan. Every song is a classic, AR Rahman introduced fusion of Western and eastern instrumentation with this album and yes u should react to the other songs as well
The person dancing with Prabhu Deva is the legendary comedian Vadivelu, a genius in his own right. Welcome to the world of Vadivelu guys. Try to react to his comedy scenes.
This why we love OSR .. u guys know where to go and pick up some really classic, epic songs of 1990's rage .. Specially this movie all songs are instant classic.. wow..thanks for the nostalgic trip. ARR, Prabhudeva, Shankar ... This song is a cult classic😍👌🤩
It is a place like Kalashethra in Chennai where people from other states and countries come to learn indian dance. The dancer's rap is full of words depicting Chennai people's life arranged in a random way. It is funny because the words are added in allitration and also in a discipline. Even enjoyable. Both Prabhu Deva and Vadivel has got super timing sense.
Kadhalan ... Shankar (2.0)-Rahman -Prabhu deva .... beat up with one of the best soundtrack ever... Urvasi Urvasi , Mukkala Mukabla.., Petta Rap, don’t miss out on Kadhalukku song.....and my all time fav song,....Melody Ennavale
Some more A.R.Rahman's composition for u guys:- 1)RAMTA JOGI from Taal(1999) 2)HAI RAMA YE KYA HUA from Rangeela (1995) 3)TU HI RE from Bombay (1995) 4)Mayya Mayya (2009) 5)Aey Ajnabi (Dil se) 6)Sarsariya (Mohenjodaro) 7)Dil hai chota sa (Roza)
You've just entered the holy territory of Tamil Gana (a type of laymans rap in Tamil Nadu). ARR has blessed it with grace and made it evergreen. Prabhu deva presented it with his authority on the local dance form called Kuthu. In Tamil Nadu, there is a cultural significance for this dance form. It is done by the drunk layman who dances it in a trance state during the final march to graves/funerals. It is in relation to the belief system which says even death should be a celebration as a birth. Kuthu dance is the most famous in South India and all people do it frequently to show their joy and sorrow. It's a philosophy by itself. India loves to see this dance songs from the South. You should react to the Gana songs and Kuthu songs.
I was expecting your reaction for this song. Loving it 😍 thank you! Please react to "Vennilave Vennilave" song for which prabudeva got national award for his choreography and a beautiful song of AR Rahman..
I think it is kalashetra where even 'white' girls come to learn barathanatyam south indian classical dance.. he is basically disrupting the dance class in the video with a local song and dance and hence she is pissed
We are very lucky (Indians)because we can enjoy different language , different culture many more .... kannada, Telugu , Tamil , Malayalam , Hindi etc etc 🌹🌹🥰🥰😊💐💐💐
Prabhu Deva is India's Michael Jackson! .... :-) .... The thing which is great about Prabhu Deva's dancing are his legs! .... he can move his legs so f****** fast and with such a tremendous control that at least i don't recall anyone who can match him in that department .... He is tall also which helps! .... His leg movements are lightening fast! .... This guy is an inspiration for all the dancers across India and around the world .... Respect! .... :-) ....
According to this movie, Prabhu Deva doesn't know how to dance. The dance takes place in a classical dance school. He joins the school to hang out with the girl he likes. Hence, the craziness in dance because he isn't a dancer.
Everything about this song is very unique. Every step Prabhu does and every lyric has a cultural reference to it. It was during the time when there was lot of western influence into Indian culture hence the tag line of the song "Pettai Rap" (pettai - area or locality or hood). As for the steps he does every single one of them has a local cultural reference. For example 4:50 every step is a he does in that small portion is a loose version of steps that Lord Shiva does in different phases. And there are other local references. To add to this ARR introduced modern Rap to Tamil music with this song.
I’ve waited forever for you guys to watch this. This is probably the first rap song of Tamil cinema. The guy who is dancing in a woman’s attire with Prabhu Deva is Vadivelu. I wish you guys see some works of Vadivelu. He is one of biggest comedians and legends of Tamil cinema. All of his yester year’s comedy scenes are today’s meme material. Anyway, he and prabhu deva have done a lot of fun movies and songs like these together. You definitely should watch this song “All day Jolly day” from another Tamil movie, If you wanna watch something even more crazy with the same vibe as pettai rap. And I’m proud to say I can rap the whole part of pettai rap ever since I have been 7 years old (that’s when this movie came out) and it was the coolest thing to do for kids those days! Ahh nostalgia☺️
Thank you for reacting to this song... As far I remember this is the first Rap song in India... Legendary creative heads PrabhuDeva AR Rahman & Shankar...😊👍
Welcome to this side of Prabhu Deva! This still remains a classic in my eyes. I remember as a kid I was dancing like a crazed one mimicking every single step and reaction of PD. Please please react to kaathadikudhu kaathadikudhu song. I assure you won't be disappointed!!!
