8 - Annam

"La . . . la . . . la . . . You look beautiful akka. How do I look?", Nandini and Thiruveni loosely draped their new sarees over their shoulders and twirled in different directions, like dancers. Periya Piratti and Ilaya Piratti distributed some clothing to the temple priests' families as a part of offerings. "Aaha! Look at my girls", Amma exclaimed. Nandini noticed that their sarees were rather simple but her saree had golden annam patterns. What will people think if she walks around in such luxurious clothes? There must have been a mistake.

"Amma, I think this chela is for you. It has elaborate patterns"

"No, I think Ilaya Piratti herself chose this for you. Didn't she give you a big necklace last time?"

That was true. Nandini felt really embarassed that day and asked Amma to keep it for akka's marriage. Kundavai must be feeling really bad about bullying her when she first came here.

"But you wear this, Amma. Akka and I will have matching chelas then".

"Aiyyo, Ilaya Piratti will think that we are taking away the jewellery and clothes she gifted to her new best friend", Thiruveni playfully pinched her cheeks.

She wanted to excuse herself from the pooja because she didn't want to see him. But Amma and akka told her that it will look ungrateful. She didn't want to walk around wearing expensive saree and jewellery either. What is she? A king's daughter? Last time when Kundavai gave her a thin bangle, that jealous Kolika told some girls that she is practising some sooniyam.

•----------•

From the royal family, only Kundavai, Arulmozhi and Karikalan participated in the pooja. Nandini tried her best not to face him.  She felt miserable because it was his face that appeared before her when she closed her eyes. She concentrated on the fresh garlands the she placed on the Krishna idol.

After giving some coins to the her father, they prepared to leave.

"Annan is complaining that akka is planning to make him a nayanar", Arulmozhi joked to the girls who have assembled to meet the young tiger and Ponniyin Selvan. Don't these girls have anything else to do? "Obviously. That's why she is dragging me from temple to temple since I returned", Karikalan protested. She noticed that his voice too has changed. Why is she bothered about such unnecessary things?

"Don't say such things", Kundavai was very serious. "Nandini akka here knows how much I prayed for your safe return. We just want to thank God, anna". Nandini wanted to say that it is true but she couldn't. She just smiled and nodded.

"Do you like the annam pattern?" Kundavai took her aside and checked if her earrings matched the border.

"Absolutely. Thank you so much".

"I was sure that it'd look beautiful on you. Paatti is preparing to welcome someone with rare manuscripts. We need to go. Adada! They come to the Krishna temple and behave like kalla kannan. Look at my shameless brothers flirting with those girls".

She didn't look.

She felt a kind of emptiness when Kundavai bid goodbye. Still she refused to meet those two eyes which were watching her intently. It doesn't matter, she consoled herself. Let them go. She only needs to close her eyes when she wants to see that face.

Annam - Swan

Sooniyam - Sorcery

Nayanar - Saivate saint

Note: For those who are wondering if Kundavai didn't hate Nandini.

After the initial jealousy, Nandini and Kundavai became friends when Aditha Karikalan was away. When he returned, he saw Nandini wearing jewellery and clothes gifted by Kundavai. Kundavai started to hate her again only when she learnt about their relationship.

From AK's pov, they looked like best friends. But such friendships aren't actually equal, are they?

★I won’t call Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan a remake of Veeram, says director Farhad Samji!

April 17, 2023 

Salman Khan is all set to return with an Eid release in the form of Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan. Going by the film’s trailer and teaser, it looks like another masala potboiler that celebrates Bhaijaan’s heroism. Before the film, which stars Pooja Hegde opposite Salman, hits the theatres on April 21, director Farhad Samji answered questions on the film, including Salman’s involvement in the making of the project, in an exclusive chat with Bollywood Hungama

Just days away from the release of Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan. Are you nervous? Am I nervous? No, not really! I am pleasantly excited. The release feels like a likeable burden. Woh hota hai na, maa nau mahine bachche ko pet mein palti hai. The pregnancy is over. Now it’s time for the delivery

And have you delivered what audiences expect? I’d like to think so. Fulfilling Salman Khan’s audiences’ expectations is not easy. They want to see their Bhaijaan as a true hero. But for me, living up to the audiences’ expectations came afterwards. First there was the story and screenplay. I did my best to tell the story that I had to. And then I made sure that I did full justice to my star’s image and what his fans expect. Pehley khana banaate hain phir ussey thaali mein khubsoorati se paroste hain. First comes the content, then the presentation.

Do you think Salman’s fans will go home happy this Eid? I would like to think so. Shall I tell you something? This is my first film where I feel so satisfied with what I’ve done. I saw the complete film with my entire team, and I felt this is what I had set out to make.

That’s good to hear. How much has Salman contributed to the film’s direction, editing, etc? A lot. And why shouldn’t he? He is not just the leading man. He is also the producer. And a hands-on producer. He is a keen student of cinema. He knows about every department of cinema. And why only him? Every technician on the team has contributed to the final shape of the film, whether it is my DOP V Manikandan or my editor Mayuresh Sawant, everyone has contributed to the final content of our film. It’s a film about a family and we made it as a family. Yeh mili-juli family ki tarah hai.

How much of the original Tamil film Veeram have you retained in Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan? I wouldn’t call it a remake. Nor would I call it an adaptation. I would say it is a completely new experience. We’ve made our film as we thought it should be made. Those who have seen Veeram would see our film as an independent experience.

You are identified with the comedy genre. Does that bother you? Why should it? If I am identified with laughter joy and happiness, isn’t that a blessing? To make people happy is a gift. Having said this, I have written scripts for serious dramatic films. But comedy is the genre I am identified with. And as David Dhawanji told me, “When the car is running smoothly, why open the bonnet?”

You are going to be directing Hera Pheri 4. There are people out there who don’t want you to? You mean, they don’t want me to direct it? Yeah, even I’ve heard this. I’ve been asked this question by some journalists. My answer is simple. There has been no official announcement about it. So why talk about it now? Jab hoga tab dekhenge.

Love, Honor, and Tradition: Exploring the Rituals and Customs of Gandla Telikula Groomsmanship

The Gandla Telikula community, with its rich cultural heritage and deep-rooted traditions, celebrates weddings with elaborate rituals and customs that reflect their values and beliefs. Gandla Telikula groomsmanship, in particular, is a fascinating aspect of these ceremonies, highlighting the groom's role, responsibilities, and the symbolic practices that prepare him for married life. This article delves into the intricate rituals and customs of Gandla Telikula groomsmanship, offering a glimpse into the community’s unique matrimonial traditions.

The Role of the Groom in Gandla Telikula Weddings

In the Gandla Telikula community, the Gandla Telikula grooms plays a pivotal role in the wedding ceremonies. His responsibilities extend beyond merely being a participant; he is central to various rituals that symbolize his transition from bachelorhood to married life. The groom is seen as a representative of his family and lineage, embodying the values and traditions of his ancestors.

Pre-Wedding Rituals and Preparations

1. Nischitartham (Engagement Ceremony)

The journey to marriage begins with the Nischitartham, or engagement ceremony. This event formalizes the union between the bride and groom and involves the exchange of gifts and jewelry between the families. The groom’s family presents traditional items like clothes, sweets, and symbolic offerings to the bride’s family, solidifying the upcoming marriage.

2. Pellikuthuru and Pellikoduku (Haldi Ceremony)

The Pellikuthuru (for the bride) and Pellikoduku (for the groom) ceremonies are joyous pre-wedding rituals where turmeric paste is applied to the bride and groom. This ritual is believed to cleanse and purify them, preparing them for the sacred wedding ceremonies. The groom, surrounded by friends and family, is anointed with turmeric paste, symbolizing prosperity and auspiciousness.

3. Snathakam (Sacred Bath)

The Snathakam is a significant pre-wedding ritual for the groom, signifying his transition from bachelorhood to a responsible householder. During this ceremony, the groom is given a ceremonial bath and adorned with new clothes, symbolizing purity and readiness for marriage. This ritual also involves the recitation of Vedic hymns and blessings from elders.

Wedding Day Rituals

1. Kashi Yatra

One of the most unique and symbolic rituals in Gandla Telikula weddings is the Kashi Yatra. The groom pretends to renounce worldly life and head to Kashi (Varanasi) to become a hermit. As he prepares to leave, the bride’s brother or an elder from the bride’s family intervenes, convincing him to return and accept the responsibilities of married life. This playful ritual highlights the groom’s readiness to take on new duties and responsibilities.

2. Mangalasnanam (Holy Bath)

On the wedding day, the groom undergoes the Mangalasnanam, a holy bath that purifies and prepares him for the sacred wedding rituals. This bath is usually performed early in the morning, accompanied by the chanting of Vedic hymns and blessings from the priest and family members.

3. Ganesh Pooja

Before proceeding to the wedding venue, the groom performs a Ganesh Pooja at his home. Lord Ganesh, the remover of obstacles, is invoked to ensure that the wedding ceremonies proceed smoothly and without any hindrances. This ritual is marked by the offering of sweets, flowers, and prayers to Lord Ganesh.

4. Arrival at the Wedding Venue

The groom’s arrival at the wedding venue is a grand affair, often marked by a procession. Accompanied by his family and friends, the groom arrives at the bride’s home or the wedding hall, where he is warmly welcomed by the bride’s family. This event, known as Baraat, is filled with music, dancing, and joyous celebrations.

5. Kanyadanam (Giving Away of the Bride)

The Kanyadanam is a deeply emotional and significant ritual where the bride’s parents formally give their daughter’s hand in marriage to the groom. The groom accepts the responsibility of caring for and protecting his bride, promising to uphold the sacred bond of marriage. This ritual is often accompanied by the recitation of Vedic hymns and blessings from the priest.

6. Mangalsutra Dharanam (Tying of the Sacred Thread)

The Mangalsutra Dharanam is the most critical moment of the wedding ceremony. The groom ties the Mangalsutra, a sacred necklace, around the bride’s neck, symbolizing their eternal bond and the groom’s commitment to his bride. This act signifies the bride’s new status as a married woman and is often accompanied by the exchange of garlands and the chanting of mantras.

7. Saptapadi (Seven Steps)

In the Saptapadi ritual, the bride and groom take seven symbolic steps together, each step representing a vow they make to each other. These vows encompass their commitment to support, love, and cherish each other throughout their lives. The Saptapadi signifies the couple’s journey together as they embark on their new life as husband and wife.

Post-Wedding Rituals

1. Grihapravesham (Entering the Groom’s Home)

After the wedding ceremonies, the bride is formally welcomed into the groom’s home in a ritual known as Grihapravesham. The groom’s family performs a series of rituals to welcome the new bride, marking her entry into her new home. This ceremony symbolizes the beginning of the bride’s new role as a daughter-in-law and wife.

2. Reception and Celebrations

Following the wedding, a grand reception is often held to celebrate the union of the bride and groom. Family, friends, and well-wishers gather to congratulate the newlyweds and participate in the festivities. The reception is marked by music, dance, and a lavish feast, symbolizing the joy and happiness of the newly married couple.

Conclusion

Gandla Telikula groomsmanship is a beautiful amalgamation of rituals, customs, and traditions that reflect the community’s values and beliefs. Each ritual, from the engagement to the post-wedding ceremonies, holds profound significance and symbolizes the groom’s readiness to take on the responsibilities of married life. By honoring these traditions, the Gandla Telikula community ensures that the sanctity of marriage is preserved and celebrated in its true essence. As we explore these rituals and customs, we gain a deeper appreciation for the cultural heritage that shapes the journey of love, honor, and tradition in Gandla Telikula groomsmanship.
