Why This Kolaveri Di has the whooping 21,652,670 views in Youtube as of today. I have to say that I’m quite surprised about how popular this song has become in less than a month from it’s release in India.
Who haven’t had a broken heart? and this soup song for soup boys, has spread like fire over the Internet and even now it has an app in the Android Market. Go figure!
When I first listened to this song I thought what is this?… but after listening it few times I started to become addicted to the tune lol.
I guess the popularity of this song is not in the lyrics themselves (a song about a guy dumped by his girlfriend and feeling disheartened) but in the simplicity. You can say that the broken English with Tamil accent is what gives the charm to the song. Plus if you watch the video, you can see a man that really enjoys making music and that spirit definitely has a reflection on his work.
You can love it, you can hate it, but you can definitely not ignore this song.
Enjoy!

Why this Kolaveri Di..dunnod answer to This question
)???
Bt wat you ve written..Absolutely True!!
Its SUPER-Popular so fast..even I dint like it at first bt im Lovin it nw..Its stupid bt its amaazingly Simple n Enjoyable….Wow!!
N besides..Everyone’s busy makin their OWN version of Kolaveri..Damn, there’s nw an Original Kolaveri, a Punjabi Kolaveri, a female Kolaveri, a Baby Kolaveri n god only knows wat else…
Hey, btw, did you kno of d Android app already..(n i was stupid tellin you bout tat
Hot song for cold weather.Delhi lacks beaches but winters compensate for it.Many people from mumbai say that delhi’s winters are marvellous. Though i like to shed clothes in winter ,many people love to sit in a quilt with a cup of hot coffee.
Since the song is not worth talking about lets talk about coffee.
I tried Barista Lavazza- almost all flavours,but no match to rich brazilian or colombian freshly grinded coffee beans.
I think you should introduce north indians to latin American coffee.People here are going to love it. A german woman has opened a bakery in vasant vihar D block market & she is doing fine.For tasting samples,you can invite anyone from this blog!!! He He
This song is OK but I avoid to see his face.If you want to go on dieting either see Anna Hazare or a South Indian Actor,you will lose half of your apetite.Anna speaks well,south indians act well but never see their face before lunch or dinner unless you want to lose weight.
Your indianising process is not complete yet,You will have to make some more changes here & there –I ll tell you some .
By the way ,I walked to a silver colored ford figo parked in front of me to check if some strange woman is sitting in it but it had a old couple with loose fitting dentures.
Wish me luck for next figo scan!!!
Hi!
There is one more song which went viral last year. If you got addicted to kolaveri, you might like this, too. I, for one, like it much better than kolaveri, because it is a labour of love from the director who made it. the lyrics are touching, though the visuals are a bit of a farce! But that type of humour appeals to me;)
here’s the link to the song and the translation on someone’s blog. The language, you might’ve guessed, is the south indian Malayalam, spoken in Kerala.

@Abhishek You are right! It has become so popular that now there are so many versions of the song. Surprising! Ha ha you were not stupid at all, just a friend told me, so I knew
@Ali Oh come on, be nice with your fellow Indians from the south
I think it’s great that Delhi has a winter season. Just imagine how horrible to have hot and humid weather the whole year. Nice to know about that German lady. I wish I had some baking skills coz the idea sounds really good! 
@Igor That was surely a very particular kind of video! It seems they are having fun though. Thank you for sharing.
Criticising looks of south indian actors is not a attack on all south indians ,its only a opinion few actors of south.
I never said open a bakery. I said import coffee from altin america & open a shop to sell it . Many people will love it here .Since you are from that continent , you might be having contacts & you speak their language ,you can buy it much cheap than a non spanish speaker.
If idea works you can move from a shop to your very own “coffee lounge”.
Indians go to america,to europe & southeast asia but i have hardly met any indian who visits countries like argentina,colombia,uruguay,mexico etc.
In short ,you should bring something–coffee or anything special to your continent and test the market here.
Testing the market can actually be a good idea. I’ll have to give it a thought. Thanks for the suggestion!
Niiiiice song..n infact i think Dhanush does make fr a Handsome enuff S.Indian, atleast wen hez Not eatin, if we take into consideration wat Ali’s sayin
Oh, n that 21-yr old guy who Composed the song..Damn soooo young!!
Anyways, the More Imp Current Topic – Plz include me in ur business venture wen you plan to start with it
I ll make a nice website also for our business – Free of Charge
Lol…I guess we are going totally off topic… but thanks for offering your help
I guess first I need to think about a great idea and how to make it happen 
This Song must be crying at its fate that no one is talking about it.
Kolaveri is sung in a tune peculiar to songs of Mika Singh (Not the English pop star MIKA). Dhanush cant sing like mika. a mika song – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EiqEA6u9oyc
Actually i also laughed when i read others are offering help in setting up business.Spanish girl -you are very lucky that you have got so many fans!!! 1 or 2 to be precise !! he he
I thought you will get annoyed by that business suggestion of mine since i was going off track ,but my suggestion is popular now!! he he
My advice will be that you should take help from Abhishek.
Have you heard of Odissi dancer Sharon Lowen , an american by birth but she has devoted her life to promoting indian dance forms.She is indianising herself for last 30 years while living in india.She started looking like indian (long black hairs,indian dress & dot on head) but something was missing –she was married to a american. So recently she divorced her american husband(marriage of over 27 years) & married a Indian man.Now her indianisation is complete .People who have surnames like sharma,gupta,aggarwal,tripathi or JAIN are 100% indian.So my suggestion is that you should start looking for people with these surnames or may be you know one or two with these surnames !! he he.
I am a honest person & i give honest advice. May be you are not happy with my advice but someone must be really jumping in joy .
Well I don’t know about Mika Singh but after listening to her song I still prefer Kolaveri. This post is taking mysterious turns lol… I just cannot stop laughing now!
Aaaahhhh..I can’t Right Click, i can’t Select n the youtube link wasnt a hyperlink

Btw, there’s an English pop star Mika..?? /:) Dinno
Anywayz..Kolaveri..Well i hrd there’s a New version of Kolaveri, on Anna’s movement
@Ms. Spanish..Plz think of an idea ASAP..We can discuss how to make it happen aftr that n Can make it happen too
Oh, n Mika is the Male singer in tat song
@Ali I could read between the lines mate…
Oh I didn’t notice that the link was broken. Sorry for that! Now it’s corrected and should work. So Mika Singh was a man lol… I always get confused with the names. Still I didn’t like the song. More versions of Kolaveri Di coming up? cool!
I meant that kolaveri singer’s voice resembles with mika’s voice.May be i posted the wrong video.This is first video of mika over 10 years old http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4EL3xbHe-4
@Abhishek- If you have experience of running a business then you should help spanish girl .
Are you a professional website designer? I want to make a personal website, i am serious.
Do you live in south or in east delhi? May be we should meet & talk.
Mika’s Voice n Dhanush’s voice..tough comparison, given their forte
Bt as i said, the previous link..that’s one of the Terrible Mika songs, otherwise he has a very good name for some of his songs. Search those out..
@Ali..Don’t hv a Hands On experience runnin businesses, bt I’m frm a Business family, so the natural instinct Runs in my veins
Bout website designing, Yep i make websites and web applications professionally. We can sure discuss over Skype-what you require.
Shoot me a mail at doctorgeniusabhi@gmail.com for the time being (Hey mod..plz don’t Mod this..See i’m goin Professional n arrangin funds fr our business;)
Ok i posted wrong video of Mika,but the girl in that song was not that bad. He He !!!
Yes no doubt ,Jains & business are synonymous & most jains (shah,parekh,ambani etc) are having sound business traits as part of their DNA but practical knowledge is to be gained nonetheless.
I have mailed you about my requirement & my need is not so humongous that you can expect huge money to invest in your business . He He!!!
Practical knowledge Sure is very important. But then, at the same time, Practical knowledge is an Ongoing n Never Ending Process..You learn more with every new day
I saw your mail n replied back instantly. Sure ur requirements mite not finance our entire venture, but it’d give a good start
Hi Girl,
I’m sitting here in the living room and played the video clip. My Hubby said “WHAT ON EARTH ARE YOU LISTENING TO NOW?!” Hahahaaaaa
Sorry but I’ve never heard of this! But you know I love my Indian music, so later today I’ll look it up in iTunes. I just might download it!
Manana, Chica!
Hey Chica, I’m sure he was totally puzzled hahaha. This Kolaveri Di has some kind of addicting effect lol. Enjoy the song!
