This is a south Indian Tamil baila song of the 1950s. Initiated or ‘created’ in the 1950s by the then popular actor Chandrababu( comedian).
He was inspired by the baila in Ceylon . He studied at St. Joseph ’s College, Darley Rd , Colombo 10.
This song became very popular in Ceylon and no party was complete without it. The young sang and danced to it lustily, mixing in some Sinhala words as well.
As happens with such ‘sing-songs’ as we used to call them, a few funny ribald words too got inserted.
And these young people? All of us.
Remember?
Real old Tamil Classic, sort of baila. TAMIL OLD--Dingiri Dingale meenakshi Dingiri dinkale--ANBU ENGE? (Preview)
