That song looked like Sivakami's song to little Amar 😭
Anyone here knows the exact lyrics used? I remember here and there.
This is the exact point in the movie I lost it. Up until this point I was only tearing up, after this lullaby it was a full blown sobfest.
In Madhan Karky's iv, he mentioned this is his favourite song. It's a lullaby Sivagami sang to Amara as a child, and she sang of how she would protect him, Kattappa Mama would give him anything he wants, and Bhalla Anna (elder brother) would play with him, sleep peacefully my child. And the same song plays as she mourns Amara. SSR knew how to reach deep in, grab hold of my heart and rip it out 😭
Out of all moments in the movie, this is the most, most significant one for me. This is why I end up crying every time I see this movie. Amara's death is sad, but this lullaby and all that it promised to the young, sweet Amara was broken mercilessly, and that's what tugs at my heart the most. The very people Amara grew up loving and trusting, killed him in the end.
