The song
is so full of love and devotion. He invites Lakshmi into his house right on time for the Friday Puja, describing ...
her dainty steps, the tinkling sound of her anklets, of bangles twirling on her
wrists, of her mesmerizing lotus eyes, the auspicious kumkum mark on her
forehead and the overflowing stream of gold and bliss she brings to homes she visits.
And he
most wonderfully describes her as Venkataramanana Binkada Rani – the
elegant and proud consort of sri Venkataramana
There are
two versions of the song. The Hindustani version rendered by Pandit Bhimsen Joshi
And the
Carnatik version by Smt MS Subbulakshmi
But I love
it most when achu my daughter sings the song…simple and no frills!
Today our
little grand daughter Sanvi completes one month. Sanvi is born on friday and is a bundle of joy.
I have tried to depict
bhagyada lakshmi baramma on paper.

ReplyDeleteThere is another version of this by Jayanti Devi set in Hindustani Classical framework and recorded in the early 1950s. I used to have a 78 rpm recording of this. I will send you a copy. Hope you enjoy it.
