Pudichirukku pudichirukku
Everything turns upside down,
That's the magic of this love!
Everything turns upside down,
That's the magic of this love!
The magic it works... yo yo!
She likes it,
That girl really likes it!
Looking at her, so many guys
Have flashed silly grins here!
Even the clothes she wears
Are a little ripped and stylish,
From the day I first saw her,
My mind has gone completely crazy!
I like it!
I like it, I like it!
When you steal a sideways glance,
And I happen to catch your eye,
When both our eyes collide and meet,
Isn't that love, Jessie?
I like it!
I like it, I like it!

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

The song expresses the overwhelming, head-over-heels sensation of falling in love and how it turns a person's world completely upside down. It playful describes the protagonist's infatuation with a girl, her modern style, and how everyone around is enchanted by her presence. The lyrics capture the playful internal monologue of someone falling in love, recalling the moment eyes met and referencing pop-culture romance tropes (like referencing 'Jessi' from Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa) to confirm that these feelings are indeed true love.
