The
song
'Kolaveri
Di'
from
actor
Dhanush's
upcoming
movie
3
has
become
a
rage
on
the
internet
and
elsewhere.
It
is
a
highly
popular
slang
among
Tamil
youth,
normally
used
to
silence
a
cranky
person
in
a
group.
It
is
among
several
Tamil
words,
which
youngsters
use
between
themselves
without
implying
actual
meaning.
'Kolaveri
Di'
means
murderous
rage
and
now
it
is
popular
even
in
other
parts
of
the
country.
Thanks
to
the
peppy
song
'Why
this
kolaveri
di?'
from
upcoming
Tamil
flick
3.
The
song
is
a
rage
among
millions
of
students
and
youngsters,
especially
in
social
networking
sites
like
Facebook
and
Twitter
and
video
sharing
site
of
YouTube.
'Yen
indha
kolaveri?
(why
this
kolaveri)'
can
be
heard
in
college
campuses
and
other
places
where
youngsters
hang
around
in
Tamil
Nadu.
It
is
actually
used
to
put
off
a
cranky
person
in
a
group.
The
slang
has
been
used
by
the
makers
of
'3'
to
depict
the
anguish
of
a
person
who
has
just
tasted
rejection
from
the
hands
of
a
girl
whom
he
liked.
