[out2of2this2world]

Is there a full version of this song? With the same lady singing it?

[binoyrakesh]

@out2of2this2world search for "nakka mukka female version". youll find the film version of this.

[yogeshamana]

He He :D

[yourdeadin]

Reminds me of Cheranjivi in andhra politics....naka mukka naka mukka

[btarunr]

@yourdeadin lol, and he failed so badly, it's not even funny :P

[massud1988]

ни о чем) и музыка фиговая!

/watch?v=JhRkYIzuBiY Romantic tamil love song from the makers of kathalil vizhunthen.

Sung by : Harish Ragavendra

[varoonk5]

Its sad that so many Indians leave derogatory comments because the language is Tamil. Im an Indian and a Tamil and I am very proud of being an Indian and a Tamil, its really sad for me to see this sort of hatred for no reason. Shows the true caliber of those who cant see beyond their own limited vision and appreciate the subject of this video.....

[jvjay]

awesome video....but the story applies to all cities in india except maybe for the cut out part...

[MrActorGuy]

hi mate,

really nice film. what camera are you using and how much (APROX) is it?

thanks

[sidharthvijayan]

Glad i am not in Tamil nadu! :D

[raghavendramerwade]

Brilliant... its gives entire picture of how a typical day of election takes place in the chennai... excellent rhythm and a strong voice makes it more appealing from what a usual soft background voice would do... well done JWT... keeping up to their reputation

[yourdeadin]

This sits perfectly for chirenjeevi from andhra pradesh!

Love this comparasion

[thavadk]

Almost true... :)

[Spriglief]

I wish our talent could call out our politicians like this.

[yourdeadin]

A live example of this sattire is chiranjeevi of andhra pradesh!

[enjoyyourtime]

so beautiful sound

[kafcin]

@enjoyyourtime Do you really like this ?? :) I'm from this region now in Germany, if so I could tell you where to get this kind of music...

[enjoyyourtime]

@kafcin yep? I really like it!

[kafcin]

@enjoyyourtime Ok, the rhythm of the music is something called "Kuthu", "Koothu", or "Dappankuthu". It is originally the music played at funerals in Tamilnadu (Madras) in India. Here is a guy generating the basic beat with his hands (watch? v=Mr-zER6idsM) .... Here are some other examples "watch? v=NKPhO3QTiGU" "watch?v=7qh03pSRWfc" "watch?v=jPxzfXKLGOE" ... Have a look ;) .......

[CallMeBillSeries]

At the end of his life, the deadliest gunfighter of the Old West is given a choice: Hell or redemption. He chooses redemption and God's Archangel transports him to modern day Los Angeles to serve bloody, frontier justice on the worst dregs of society.

[aslanyureky]

sorry but this is totally crap

[YellowLinePictures]

The video is well shot and good music selection displaying the energy of chennai . Also watch similar video by our team "T Nagar the Heart Beat of Chennai " Have Fun

[jaykumarr]

4 science laureates hailed from Tamilnadu. The best mathematician of the century too.

compared to caste parties in Andhra, or Nair caste in Kerala there is less caste stuff in Tamilnadu.

The major problem in Tamilnadu is one family wants to rule Tamilnadu, run all Media and TV in Tamilnadu, and that family believes that their family is upper-caste and all non-family members and other tamilians, SL tamilians are slaves and lower-caste. This video is gr8, but more apt for Andra( like Chiru)

[jaykumarr]

I mean 4 nobel laureates out of 5 science nobel laureates of India.

[malipaws]

this is one hot video :)

[Sedikus]

love this video!!

[ananthspirit]

Dear njohney,

I Forgave your Ignorance, Pity your blind eyesight & pity that YouTube is not in Braille.

As I never said that Tamilnadu is a Country, but said one of the Gr8 language in Country.

[njohney]

Forgive my ignorance, but when did Tamil Nadu became a country?

[kiranton]

Just one curious question. Who is the father?

[ananthspirit]

Father is be the creator of Tamil...

God-Muruga, Son of Lord-Shiva!!

He wrote our wonderful language-Tamil,& thus became one of two most ancient languages in which the other was Sanskrit.

[dvasanth]

One of the best songs of 2008..

[immumo]

[ChennaiTimes]

The point is to capture " A Day in the Life of Chennai " in a real story that engages and entertains the audience like you. Let Truth Prevail says The Times Of India.

[yourdeadin]

@ChennaiTimes Let Barkha Dutta prevail ??? :P

[vishnuvvn]

[BoxerMonkey]

[vishnuvvn]

ofcourse i am.. any doubts..

[khnfrz]

[endxofxeternity]

yeah love the song too, but the other 'kadhalil vizhundan' song was a total rip off of 'unfaithful' bu rihanna. Anyone noticed?

[vkh93]

[AvIs03]

if you guys didn't know this version was done by the india times.. they took the song and gave it a new twist to show the political situation in india.. very innovative eh..

[ASIASTRONGESTMAN]

[LilQuotez]

[gurucontent]

LOL SUBTITLES LOL

[way25r]

The Details of this advertisement:

Created by JWT Chennai. Made by Good Morning Films. Directed by Shashanka Chaturvedi. Script & Screenplay by Senthil Kumar. Art by Karthik Shekar, Jeff Imanuel. Music by Vijay Anthony. Agency Producer: Mark Manuel.

[rajrambo]

Hahaha! The subtitles have nothing to do with the song! But they're still funny. Great tactic!

[ChennaiTimes]

Music Director Vijay Anthony however says that Naaka Mukka needs no meaning. " Naaka Mukka " is just a great verbal beat that disrupts the music and is intentionally inserted in the most unexpected parts of the track to disrupt and deliver a chart topping hit. Naaka Mukka Naaka Mukka...

[ChennaiTimes]

Some Koothu dancers in Tamil Nadu however say that this "Naaku Mukka" is an expression for letting your hair down and dancing like its your last dance, demonstrated by stretching the naaku [ tongue ] so far that it touches the tip of your mukka [ nose ]. Full Koothu party Machi, Naaka Mukka Dance aadalam, Variya :)

[ChennaiTimes]

Naaka : Tongue in Tamil [ Read as Taste / Lingo }

Mukka : Nose in Tamil [ Read as Smell / Ambience }

Naaka Mukka : a local expression for tongue [ Naaka ] and nose [ Mukka ] that captures the taste and smell of Chennai from tongue to nose or vice versa !

[onlyanniyan]

wonderful

fantastic make with subtitil

but can anyone tell wat does nakka mukka sounds to resemble in hindi or englis just rhyme or has meaning though funny meaning can anyone tell please?????

[russwane]

so when they doing one about mumbai ?

[leshwar]

woow.. i ve seen this in Tv too... hahaha final masterpiece from "cut out to scare crow" concept wid Nakka mukka.. wonderful

[bluebluewaters666]

amazing track, wonderfully shot, superbly edited...great fun!!!
