We all have heard a wonderful screen song called “Eyu Swaranadlu Anantiya Song…”. Poet Kannadasan wrote a song woven with his magical words. There is a line in it, “Any pain is like a shifting cloud…”. It is an undeniable fact; Kannadasan’s words say that is the law of nature. Time and nature have the power to make you forget all suffering. But how does the sufferer cope with the pain in the interim?
Today, human life is full of stress. Problems and challenges in both workplace and home. It is in the face of all that a man has to move through life. Let’s imagine it like this… Let’s pick up a camera and a microphone and stand in a public gathering place. Let’s stop the passer-by and ask a question. “Sir… what will you do to get rid of your tresses?”
Of course the answer most people would give is…
“Illayaraja song will be sung.”
“I’ll watch Vadivelu Joke.”
“I’ll watch a Charlie Chaplin movie.”
“Just watch the Jackie Chanoda fight scene over and over again… all worries will fly away.”
Still others might even say “I’ll watch Kuthup Chan on TV”. There is nothing wrong with that. Importantly, the people behind all these are the artists. Their performance. That is the reason to temporarily forget our sorrow. Next to food, clothing and shelter, art is the greatest invention of man.
