Weekly Music Video

It's spooky season (the lead-up to Hallowe'en), so this week's video fits the theme! It's Taras from the recent Bollywood film Munjya (released in June). 

It's a horror comedy about a young man called Bittal (played by Abhay Verma) who goes to his native village. While there he uncovers a family secret and also comes across the Munyja, a vengeful spirit who wants to get married! The spirit's plan involves Bittal's childhood friend Bela (Sharvari), who he is secretly in love with. Bittal must do what he can to stop the Munjya.

The film is inspired by Indian folkore and the legend of the Munjya. It's part of the Maddock Supernatural Universe series of movies, which also consists of Stree (2018), Bhediya (2022) and most recently Stree 2 (the Stree sequel which was released in August). Out of those films I've seen Stree so far, which I quite liked. 

The Taras video features Sharvari. The playback singers are American singer Jasmine Sandlas and Sachin-Jigar. (Indian composer duo Sachin-Jigar also did the music for Nadiyon Paar from the 2021 comedy horror Roohi).

Hallowe'en is next Thursday (31st October) and I plan to do my annual  "spooky" themed post this weekend! :)

South Indian Videos

I've written several Bollywood posts this year but I don't feature South Indian music/films as much. So today I'm sharing some music and dance videos from Tollywood ( the Telugu language film industry) and Kollywood (the Tamil language film industry). :) Oo Antava Mawa- Pushpa- Dance Cover by Sonali First up is a dance cover of the song Oo Antava Mawa..Oo Oo Antava from the 2021 Tollywood film Pushpa: The Rise- Part 1 . I previously featured a dance cover of Oo Antava Mawa in a Dance Videos post in August last year. That one is by Rang De and you can see it here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/08/dance-videos.html This cover is by Indian choreographer Sonali Bhaduria, from LiveToDance with Sonali and was uploaded in January 2022. It's a shorter video.   For more on Pushpa and to watch the official Oo Antava Mawa video, check out my Tollywood Videos Round-up 2 post from September 2023: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/09/tollywood-videos-round-up-2.html ...

Sorry there wasn't a 2nd post last week, I was going through a bit of a stressful time and didn't manage to get one finished. :) This week's video is I CONDEMN by Australian singer and rapper The Kid LAROI . It was the first single from the deluxe version of his second album BEFORE I FORGET. The original album was released in January and the deluxe version came out on 24th April. It contains 9 extra tracks, including  I CONDEMN and latest single PIECES. I wasn't aware that there was a deluxe version until I saw that some new songs had appeared on Spotify! I like BEFORE I FORGET and my favourite songs from the original version are ME + YOU, JULY,  COME DOWN and RATHER BE featuring Australian rapper and singer Lithe . One of my fave songs on the deluxe version is QUIT YOU, and I also like HOLD STILL and I CONDEMN. The newest single PIECES came out on out the same day as the album. I CONDEMN was released on 17th April. As with the songs on the original BEFORE I FORGET, it...
