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) 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.

Pushpha 2 The Rule (the sequel to Puspha) is set to be released on 5th December (3 years after the original came out). There aren't many music/songs videos released yet but I'll look out for them.
Here is the official Telugu trailer (English subtitles available!): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3JUbgOHgdw
And there's also a Hindi trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1kVK0MZlbI4
Plus, here's the lyrical video for KISSIK, a song from the film: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3C1n5lqGdmY

CHUTTAMALLE | Devara Dance Cover by SHASHI DANCE STUDIO
Next is more dance. This is a dance cover of Chuttamalle, the 2nd single from the Telugu movie Devara- Part 1, which was released this September (26th Sept). It's an action thriller starring N.T. Rama Rao Jr (often referred to as Jr NTR), Janhvi Kapoor (who also appeared in the 2021 Bollywood film Roohi) and Saif Ali Khan (who is best known for starring in Bollywood).
The playback singer is Shilpa Rao, who also sings for Bollywood and Kollywood.
The cover is performed by dancers from Shashi Dance Studio, a dance studio based in Sri Lanka. It was uploaded on 27th September. I like the whole vibe and atmosphere of the cover and video ! :)

Spark from The GOAT
Now we move on to Kollywood music! This is Spark from recent Tamil action/thriller The Greatest of All Time (The GOAT) (released on 5th September).
It stars popular actor Thalapathy Vijay aka Vijay (full name Joseph Vijay Chandrasekhar, who works primary in Kollywood and is also a playback singer) as Gandhi, a former spy/undercover agent for the Special Terrorist Squad (SATS). After suffering personal tragedy years ago while abroad with his family, he now has another job.
Now Gandhi is called back to his previous role by his old boss and sent to Moscow where he encounters Jeevan, young man who reminds him of himself (also played by Vijay, "de-aged"!). He believes that Jeevan is his son, whom he thought had died as a child.
Random fact: The Thalapathy part of Vijay's name is a title which means "Commander" in English and was originally given to him by a fan.
The music video stars Vijay and Tollywood/Kollywood actress Meenakshi Chaudhary. The playback singers are Yuvan Shankar Raja and Vrusha Balu.
Watch the trailer for THE GOAT here (it says there are Hindi subtitles but there are English ones as well!): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jxCRlebiebw
