A seed that germinated in the crucible of the farmer’s protest in Delhi evolved into a song about memories, protest and call to action. ‘Malavaazhi’, a crowd-funded music video, released by Kerala-based ethno music band Karinthalakoottam, is a melodious ode to farming and farmers.
The music, rhythm and lyrics of ‘Malavaazhi’ celebrate the seed as a symbol of evolution, civilisation and culture. The song was composed primarily with native musical instruments such as otta, chenda, thudi, vadi chilambu and kuzhi thalam.
