ட்ரீட்மெண்டு வா
வா தோழா
Shall each of us catch a girlfriend?
Shall we study a new trend in love?
Shall we give treatment to old things?
Come, come friend
சில நேரம் காதல்
இங்கு தோற்க்கலாம்
தோற்றாலும் கங்கூலி
போல் திரும்பலாம்
மீண்டும் ஓர் காதல்
கதை அரும்பலாம்
பூவா பூவா
Sometimes love might lose here
Even if defeated, we can bounce back like Ganguly
A new story of love can blossom again
Flower, flower

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
This energetic youth track captures the carefree spirit, optimism, and daily lifestyle of modern college students. The lyrics celebrate living life on one's own terms—enjoying every day of the week with shopping, movies, and internet browsing, while remaining unfazed by strictly demanding professors or financial burdens borne by parents. It emphasizes resilience in love and life through pop culture analogies like Mahmud of Ghazni's persistence and Rajinikanth's iconic victories. The song further explores youthful romance, urban youth culture, and camaraderie among friends. Encouraging a fearless attitude towards falling in love and overcoming heartbreak (comparing a comeback in love to cricketer Sourav Ganguly), the narrator playfully positions himself as a guru guiding his friend through the rules of modern romance.

Trivia
The track is composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja for the film 'Thottal Poo Malarum' (2007), directed by P. Vasu, which marked the debut of his son Sakthi Vasu. Lyricist Vaali cleverly fused contemporary youth slang, English daily schedules, and current pop-culture icons (such as Namitha, Ganguly, and Rajinikanth) to resonate with late 2000s college students.
