Raavan Vs Raavanan

Views

The debate is clearly lyrical quality

Gulzar saab refers to the tamil lyrics something for easy understanding

"kodu potta konnu podu
veli potta vetti podu"

For any stop line drawn Kill him/them (maarne kha)
For further fencing Slice him/them (Kaat ne kha)

Gulzar saab got confused with this 'ulti' baath and refers his lyrics to MR & ARR for clarification.

Ey hawa phe chalti hai ghori paron se bhi halki hai re (She floats like air and she is as lighter than feathers)
Dahi se bhi khatti hai.. suna hai dahi bhi kal khi hai re (She is as softer as curd and the curd is just a day longer)

MR & ARR admires Gulzar saab's work and replies "aap tho hamara kavingar ka jaga pe hain " (As you are in our own Kavingar Kannadaasan's place). Sweet, simple, flawless and very rich in poetic sense. But VM is not to be blamed as we have given him the prior composed hindi tunes and not much scope for development.

Well in any language/poetry/lyrics the context has to be seen in whole not so overly critical on every lines. VM is a known violent poet on both counts he propels very strongly

Show no mercy to your detractors(kodu pottaalum seri veli pottaalum seri), Finish them off!

And Gulzar saab leaves the place with a latest song playing in the background "kazhuthillai kazhuthillai athu kannadaasan ezhuthu"

Kannadaasan shouts from the grave 'evanda avan en ezhuthai anoushka kaluthodoa equate pannathu" j/k.
