We are basically fundamentally
Extremely sorry..
Hara Hara Maha Devaki!
He he he he!
Hey yo, people in the house!
Come on, dude, come on, come on, come on!
Greetings to everyone at home!
To the music of our Vivek-Mervin,
along with RJ Balaji,
performing here is Tupakeys!
Drop the beat, drop it, what happened...
Hit it, hit it!
We played cricket... hit it, hit it!
You were the one who struck it... hit it, hit it!
Oh shoot, no, not me!
Give it a shot, take on the challenge!
An awesome life awaits you!
To hold your dreams in your hands,
pour in every skill you've got!
You need determination in your heart,
to move forward in life.
Arrogance should never be there,
that will only bring your downfall!
Humility alone is enough,
to make your name shine tomorrow.
Stay quietly on the sidelines,
until your moment draws near.
The sky is your only limit,
break through the barriers and rise up, dude!
Get tuned in, get tuned in!
Bring out all your skills, man!
Rock it, rock it, rock it, baby!
The song requested on All India Radio,
from the movie...
Pugazh, Pugazh, Pugazh, Pugazh!
Sing it!
Hit it, hit it!
Smash it, break it, rock the show!
Hit it, hit it!
Not loud enough, turn up the volume!
Hit it, hit it!
We are leaping in, step aside!
Hit it, hit it!
When the Sultan himself is starving,
where will the horse get gulab jamun?
There is no air in the bicycle tyre,
and no soup to treat a sprain!
Spinning tall tales, Mangamma,
where is your home and hearth, ma?
Abra-kadabra Kali,
two marbles inside your shoes!
Bald-headed Ezhumalai,
climb up on my leg!
Ezhumalai... you bald head!
Not Raju, not Raju, not Raju,
like Raju Sundaram...
Now enough of my
nonsense behavior exhibition!
This is RJ Balaji signing off from
the IGR Marar of Anderson Raghavan,
with their Tupakeys!
The heat hasn't dropped, the sound hasn't stopped,
all your dreams are about to turn real!
The sun hasn't changed, Sunday hasn't arrived,
play kabaddi, kabaddi, fortunes are turning!
The whole world is a fantasy,
if you know how to live in it, you are the king!
You never can tell tomorrow,
your status could be just like an Ambani!
Millions of money,
millions of honeys,
will be buzzing all around you, man!
But a gang of people will corner you,
and try to destroy and wipe you out, dude!
Don't worry, buddy,
from now on, this is our time!
Fame is going to come looking for you,
let's start the game!
Hey, don't just rely on luck,
and lock yourself in!
Don't live life recklessly,
and get trapped inside a cage for nothing!
Oh, hard work is the only thing, bro,
that will make your movie a hit, buddy!
Hey, if you work smart and sharp,
your story is sure to be a blockbuster, man!
Hit it, hit it!
Smash it, break it, rock the show!
Hit it, hit it!
Not loud enough, turn up the volume!
Hit it, hit it!
We are leaping in, step aside!
Hit it, hit it!
Let's go one more time!
Hit it, hit it!
Smash it, break it, rock the show!
Hit it, hit it!
Not loud enough, turn up the volume!
Hit it, hit it!
We are leaping in, step aside!
Hit it, hit it!
In this song,
all the lines
were recorded purely
for the sake of humor.
Even so, if your feelings
have been hurt,
we are basically, fundamentally,
extremely sorry!

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

This promo/fun track from the movie 'Pugazh' combines high-energy motivational lyrics with quirky, nonsensical radio-jockey banter by RJ Balaji and the musical duo Tupakeys / Vivek-Mervin. The track encourages young people to work hard, shed arrogance, stay humble, and unleash their full potential to achieve success and fame ('Pugazh'). Interspersed with playful rhymes, comedic gibberish, and energetic choruses, it delivers a punchy message about grit, perseverance, and rising above obstacles without taking life too seriously.

Writing craft

Poetic devices

Edhugai (Second-letter Rhyme)

Thadaigal udaithu mela vaada / Moththa viththayum irakku da

The second letters 'da' in 'Thadaigal' and 'da' in 'Moththa' align across connected lines, creating Tamil rhythmic symmetry.

Monai (Initial Letter / Sound Alliteration)

Paththala paththala sound-u yethu

Repetition of initial sound 'P' across the line ('Paththala paththala').

Nonsense Rhyme / Nonsensical Humor

Sultaanae kaayum podhu / Kuthiraiku yedhu gulab jaamun

Use of surreal, humorous juxtaposed lines that rhyme for comic effect, typical of street play and promo rap tracks.

Anaphora / Repetition

Podu podu

The phrase 'Podu podu' is repeated continuously as an energetic refrain throughout the song.

Trivia

This track served as a high-energy promotional song for the 2016 Tamil film 'Pugazh' starring Jai and Surabhi. Featuring RJ Balaji's signature rapid-fire radio banter alongside indie hip-hop vibes by Tupakeys and composers Vivek-Mervin, the song parodies old radio announcements and Tamil street rhymes while delivering a lighthearted apology disclaimer at the end.
