Kannadasan Wrote This Kamal-Rajini Movie Song Half-Asleep — And Still Won A National Award!

1/9 The 71st National Film Awards were recently announced, with Tamil cinema receiving notable recognition. The award for Best Tamil Film was given to Parking (2023), while GV Prakash was named Best Music Director for Vaathi (2023). Parking also earned Ramkumar Balakrishnan the award for Best Screenplay, and veteran actor MS Bhaskar won Best Supporting Actor for his performance in the same film. Among the many fascinating tales surrounding the National Awards is an intriguing story about the legendary lyricist Kannadasan, who won a National Award for a song he wrote while half asleep. Kannadasan is often the first name that springs to mind when one thinks of poets. His lyrics possess a distinctive charm, and beyond songwriting, he also acted in numerous films. Having penned songs for approximately 4,500 films, produced six films, and authored many books, Kannadasan even went so far as to write his own obituary. Despite his many achievements, one of his most memorable was winning a National Award for a song in a Rajinikanth film, composed while he was half asleep. Do you know which film featured that song? It was Apoorva Raagangal (1975), directed by K Balachander, which marked Rajinikanth's debut in Tamil cinema and also starred Kamal Haasan, Sridevi, and Srividya. The music was composed by MS Viswanathan. During the filming of Apoorva Raagangal, K Balachander and MS Viswanathan were discussing a song for the film with actor Kamal Haasan present. Balachander suggested holding a rehearsal the following day, but MS Viswanathan explained that Kannadasan's lyrics had not yet arrived. This irritated K Balachander, who questioned how long they would have to wait for the poet. MS Viswanathan tried to calm him, but when Kamal Haasan mentioned that Kannadasan was sleeping upstairs, K Balachander's anger intensified. He threatened to cancel the shoot, which woke Kannadasan, who overheard the commotion. After an hour, MS Viswanathan sent someone to check if Kannadasan was awake. The person found that Kannadasan had gone, but his assistant Anandhu handed over a piece of paper to K Balachander. Upon opening it, he was astonished to discover seven different songs written by Kannadasan. Confused about which song to choose, Balachander selected Ezhuswarangalukkul, sung by Vani Jayaram. This song, written in a semi-drowsy state, became immensely popular and won the National Award. Vani Jayaram also received the Best Female Playback Singer award for her performance. The film Apoorva Raagangal went on to win a total of three National Awards.

Ranveer Allahbadia clears the air on fake rejection claims, reflects on controversy, and returns with new podcast episodes

After India's Got Latent controversy earlier this year, some Bollywood stars claimed they had turned down invites to be on Ranveer Allahbadia 's show. But now, Ranveer—popularly known as The Beer Biceps , has cleared the air. In a recent interview, he said many of those celebrities were never actually invited by his team. He admitted that these false claims left him feeling "upset and angry." Ranveer Allahbadia addresses fake rejection claims Ranveer told Prafful Garg, 'It was a feeding frenzy. Some celebrities claimed that they'd even rejected an invite to the show. The truth is that we never invited them in the first place. In such situations, I felt angry at human beings in general. But I realised that the predicament that I was in was a result of my own actions." by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like I Saw Two Bikers Mocking A Fat Truck Driver, But They Regretted It When They Discovered Who He Really Was Plays Star Undo The podcaster added, 'I couldn't change the past, but I could change the future. I got a forced break after a crazy, intense six-year podcasting journey. I'm just trying to move on; I've tried to forgive a lot of people, even myself, and to a degree, I've been successful." India's Got Latent row Earlier this year, Ranveer Allahbadia faced major backlash over an episode of India's Got Latent. During the show, he asked a contestant a highly inappropriate question. Although the panelists, including Apoorva Mukhija and Ashish Chanchlani , laughed at the comment, it didn't sit well with the audience. The clip went viral and sparked outrage online, leading to multiple FIRs being filed against Ranveer and the show's creators. Returns with new podcast episodes The controversy grew bigger when the National Commission for Women (NCW) got involved, and Ranveer Allahbadia had to issue a written apology. The Supreme Court later gave him temporary protection from arrest but strongly criticized his comments, calling them 'vulgar' and saying he had a 'dirty mind' that brought shame to society. Despite the backlash, Ranveer has recently made a comeback and resumed his podcast. Celebrities like Boman Irani , Shruti Haasan , and Tara Sutaria have already appeared as guests on the show.
