Margazhi Raagam - The concert, the movie

Guess what, this Sunday, we had been to carnatic movie at Fun Cinemas. It was mouli who was asking for a show as it was slated to be shown only for 3 days by using the ongoing HDFC offer on fun cinemas tickets. i guess they were kind enough to extend, but the offer is not valid for Bangalore Fun Cinemas as the ticket prices are always on the higher side on weekends. I personally had mixed opinion about the movie, finally decided to go this Sunday.

Yes, we saw Margazhi Raagam today, which is carnatic movie performed by Bombay Jayshree and TM Krishna, picturization by PC Sriram and direction by Jayendran Panchapakesan. It is an unique experience for carnatic music lovers for this music season, well thought concept and first of its kind....

In the theater it was mostly thaathas/paatis or uncle/aunty's who were enjoying raagaas... with renga around, we all had extra fun of fakely knowing the raagam/thaalam names apart from enjoying the music from the singers and he himself...

In my opinion, although theater experience is good, you can buy a DVD copy of the same as the money you spent on it is less...
