<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 107%;">She was born in 1919 in Kancheepuram. Her father Damal
Krishnaswamy Dikhithar was an orthodox Brahmin. He was a primary school teacher
and was a Sanskrit scholar too. He had an interest in classical music.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Her mother Rajammal<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>had a sweet voice and she knew some kritis
but she was not allowed to perform even before the members of the family. Those
days <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>women in their community were not
permitted to sing, dance or perform in public. It is said that once Rajammal
sang in a wedding when her father- in- law heard and shouted “Is that my
daughter- in-law s voice that I hear? Can someone ask her to stop immediately
and go inside? So it is not amazing that in such a social condition Pattammal
was denied of formal training in music. Krishnaswamy Dikshithar also realized
that his daughter had natural ability in singing but he cannot imagine his
daughter performing public.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="background-color: whitesmoke;">Pattammal's</span> teacher Ammukkutti<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Ammal noticed her unusual
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>abilities <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>when she performed a role in a play in which
she sang . When the news appeared at the local newspapers, the Columbia gramophone
company approached her father to record her daughter singing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That was a shock to him as it was an improper
act of Brahmin girl to sing publically. He was in a dilemma; at heart he wished
her daughter to sing but the social constraint frightened him. At last he
yielded before Ammukutti <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Ammal s affectionate
compulsion. Her first record was a success and this gave her an attention in
the musical world. She had only twelve years old then.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The Columbia gramophone record changed her
life altogether. It is curious to note that the emergence of new technology
enabled her to break the social taboo. It was difficult to record the voice of
the upper caste women. The women voices recorded those days like Bangalore
Thai, Coimbatore Thai, Thirichethur Shanmukha Vadivu, and Veena shanmukhavadivu,
Madras Lalithangi and Veena Dhanammal were from devadasi communities. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 107%;">The Thyagaraja festival in Kancheepuram was a great
event.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Krishnaswamy Dikshithar used to
bring his daughter there. It was organized by well-known musician Kancheepuram
Naina Pilla. Pattammal got a rare opportunity to listen to maestros there at an
early age. Pattammal had a great adoration for Naina Pilla and she was deeply
distressed that she can’t learn music from him. She imbibed the repertory to her
singing and considered him a model. She wished she could sing like him.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She was allured by his unparalleled Pallavis
too. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Once in a wedding she got an opportunity to sing. She
imitated the style of the singers heard at Thyagaraja festival. A music teacher
was there and he thought that if she is given ample practice he can develop her
innate talents.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He came forward to teach
her. Pattammal didn’t recall his name. He was usually called by others as Telungu
Vadhyar. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He taught her some Thyagaraga <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>kritis. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Telungu Vadhyar was her first teacher though
it was not a formal teaching in the true sense.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Her head mistress Ammukutty Ammal had a great
influence in her life she compelled her father to attend a music <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>competition conducted by Madras Govt.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>One of the judges of the panel was comprised
of Ambi Dikshitar. He was so impressed by her singing and he insisted on
teaching her some Dikhitar Kritis. Her training lasted only fifteen days and
that had a tremendous impact on Pattammal singing career. Within a short span
of time she could grasp every nuances of Dikhitar kritis. Later it enabled her
popularizing Dikhitar kritis.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Unlike her contemporaries she didn’t get a prolonged
training from any guru. Neither she had <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>legacy like<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>T Brinda,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>M S Subhalashmi ,M L
Vasanthakumari, etc.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Pattammal s mother
was not a musician. Pattammal’s <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>father used
to take her to the Thyagaraja festival where she was lucky to hear the music of
Carnatic maestros. She picked up a little knowledge from various masters. She
wished to learn music from a master but the restrictions imposed by the society
retarded her longings. That became a blessing in disguise in her life since she
could develop a unique style of her own without imitating any masters. What is
most significant in her music career was the way in which she overcame <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>the social taboos with her vigorous talent and
passion for music.<span style="background: whitesmoke;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12.0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 42.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Pattammal had to face bitter words from
different corners her community. She was the first Brahmin woman to sing
Carnatic classical music in public. So her father felt it difficult to develop
her career at her native place. He took a decision to move to Madras so that
they can’t be any adverse reactions from her community. So he left his job for
the sake of her daughter’s career.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That was
a turning point in Pattammal s life. He was a staunch supporter of freedom
struggle and women’s emancipation was also a part of it. Consequently the socio
political situation helped her to revamp her talents.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12.0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 42.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 107%;">At madras she got sufficient opportunities
to perform in the public. Opposition from her community had diminished. It was
a time that M S Subhalakshmi was becoming a star. She was from a non-Brahmin
community. Brahmin community wants a singer to uphold their esteem in the
society. So Pattammals advent was welcomed<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12.0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 42.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Pattammals questioned the male domination
in the domain of singing ragam thanam pallavi during 1940s. It was a common belief
that women can’t sing ragam thanam pallavi. Many female singers internalized
this unwritten law among the musicians. Her father told her “if you have
confidence to sing pallavi just go ahead and sing it never mind what people say”.
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The first pallavi she recorded was one
of the Naiana Pilla s favorite in the raga jagamohini. After that she was known
as pallavi Pattammal.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12.0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 42.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 107%;">In the book Madras Quartet, Indira menon
says “one doesn’t know for certain who the first woman to sing pallavi was. Some
say it was Dhanakoti Ammal but the credit for being the first women to storm
this last bastion is usually given to Pattammal. Hailed as pallavi Pattammal
she brought to successful close of struggle against male domination in music
started by Brinda and M S Subhalakshmi. Following her lead Subhalakshmi also began
to sing<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>pallavi in 1930s Pattammal
became the role model for other women artists <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>prominent among<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>whom have been<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>M L Vasathakumari,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>R<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Vedavalli
,Sreerangam<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Gopalaratnam , Suguna <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Purushothamanan and Mani krishnaswami.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>R<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Vedavalli , a scholar musician of the younger generation has said
that<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>it was <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>D K<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Pattammal
who gave courage and confidence to women singers to sing pallavi in the face of
disapproval by male gurus and colleagues” (The Madras Quartet page no
161-162)<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12.0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 42.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 107%;">The two things that enabled her to fulfill
her dreams were the technological progress in music and the freedom movement.
These two bestowed her much strength to break the constraint of her caste. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>With its adherence to traditional religious
beliefs , it is a daunting task to break dogma in Carnatic music. Moreover the admirers
of Carnatic music find it is a sin to break the tenet. In Pattammal s community
nobody was ready to defy the restrictions imposed by the community and none
questioned the prohibition of dancing or singing in public. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Rukhmini Devi Arundale had already broken the doctrine
to become the first Brahmin woman to enter the Bharatanatym field as a dancer. With
the advent of gramophone Pattammal has got a prominent place in Carnatic music.
T Brida and Mukhta stayed away from recording her voice. Hence <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Subhalakshmi and Pattammal dominated this
field.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Eppadi paadinaro is her
everlasting hit in the gramophone record. It was in Karnataka devaghandhari and
composed by suddhanatha bharathi. Other popular records<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>are <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>yaro ivar yaro, thookkiya thiruvadi, shivakama
sundhari, velan veruvavadi <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>etc.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12.0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 42.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 107%;">It was during the zenith of the freedom
movement Pattammal started her career.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Like M S Subhalakshmi, Pattammal also responded to the spirit of the
times and used her voice to popularize Subramanya bharathi s patriotic
songs.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That also paved the way for
popularizing her music. Her father was an ardent supporter of the freedom movement.
With his full support she sang patriotic songs to a large audience against the
oppressing British regime. She considered singing Bharathi s aaduvome over AIR
at the stroke of midnight on August 5, 1947 as the most memorable moment in her
life. With much fortitude and endurance she set a new path where women could
flower there talent without any intervention. She singularly brought about
women s liberation without ever mentioning that word. Today gifted women
musicians from her communities and other communities stand with pride and
confidence <o:p></o:p></span></div>

The author is at ease in front of the camera and proves she can tell stories and not merely write them.</span></span></p><p style="line-height: 15px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'times new roman';">The directors weave the story together without any voiceovers. Apart from the author’s monologues, there are excerpts of interviews with her. Certain incidents from her life have been dramatised to add flavour to the documentary. Valsala speaks at length about her masterpiece, ‘Nellu,’ the novel which shot her to fame.</span></span></p><p style="line-height: 15px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'times new roman';">“‘Nellu’ just happened; I did not contemplate on writing it. I wrote it after a rejuvenating experience in Wayanad,” says the author on camera.</span></span></p><p style="line-height: 15px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'times new roman';">She reveals she was not keen on turning her book into a film. “But when Ramu Karyat approached me for permission, I agreed because I had seen his movie ‘Chemmeen’ and was impressed by it. He asked K.G. George, S.L. Puram and me to write separate scripts based on the novel and in the end, took certain portions from all the three and made the film,” she says.</span></span></p><p style="line-height: 15px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'times new roman';">Valsala, who was not pleased at the outcome of the movie, goes on to say that she herself wanted to make a film based on her novel ‘Agneyam.’</span></span></p><p style="line-height: 15px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'times new roman';">“But I couldn’t because those days there were few opportunities for women to become filmmakers,” rues the writer.</span></span></p><p style="line-height: 15px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'times new roman';">Valsala also narrates her meeting with Naxalite leader Varghese. “I met him on the banks of Kalindi river in 1967; that was to be my only meeting with him. I had anticipated the armed revolution in Wayanad.”</span></span></p><p style="line-height: 15px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'times new roman';">And it is narrations such as these that make ‘Jeevitham Pole Kathakal’ an interesting watch. Christy George’s camera captures the lush greenery of Wayanad and gives viewers glimpses into the life of the tribals residing in the area. Shajahan Kaliyath’s paintings enhance certain frames of the documentary. Babu Santhalayam’s music is judiciously used.</span></span></p><p style="line-height: 15px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'times new roman';">Says Nadeem, one of the directors of the documentary: “I have wanted to make a film on Valsala for quite some time. We shot the entire film in two days and did the post-production also in two days.”</span></span></p><p style="line-height: 15px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'times new roman';">They could have, perhaps, taken another day or two to get some sound bytes from people close to Valsala or a literary critic, who could put into perspective her contribution to Malayalam literature.</span></span></p><p style="line-height: 15px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'times new roman';">Yet, films like ’Jeevitham Pole Kathakal’ deserve to be seen and encouraged. Kerala needs to document the lives of its gifted sons and daughters.</span></span></p><p align="justify" style="line-height: 15px; "></p><p style="line-height: 15px; "></p><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'times new roman';"><web></web></span></span><p align="justify" style="line-height: 15px; "></p><p style="line-height: 15px; "></p><p style="line-height: 15px; "></p><p align="justify" style="line-height: 15px; "></p><p style="line-height: 15px; "></p><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'times new roman';"><i></i></span></span><p style="line-height: 15px; "><span class="leftnavi" style="text-decoration: none; line-height: 14px; color:red;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'times new roman';">Printer friendly </span></span><a href="http://www.hinduonnet.com/thehindu/thscrip/print.pl?file=2008050950130300.htm&date=2008/05/09/&prd=fr&" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255); text-decoration: none; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'times new roman';">page</span></span></a></span></p></span></div>nadeem noushadhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08618101333856669037noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5445908344725790176.post-37320044654383116482009-11-28T08:39:00.001-08:002009-12-20T07:43:54.057-08:00<span class="Apple-style-span" style=" color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 16px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:11px;"><p style=" line-height: 15px; font-size:11px;"><span class="storyhead" style="font-weight: bold; color:blue;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'courier new';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Rewinding to ‘Kerala Saigal’</span></span></b></span></p><p align="justify" style="line-height: 15px; "></p><p size="11px" style=" line-height: 15px; "></p><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'courier new';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Staff Reporter</span></span><p style="line-height: 15px; "></p><p align="justify" style="line-height: 15px; "></p><p style="line-height: 15px; "></p><table border="0" width="100%" bg style="color:d0f0ff;"><tbody><tr><td><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'courier new';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Documentary captures the life of Kozhikode Abdul Khader</span></span></i></td></tr></tbody></table><p align="justify" style="line-height: 15px; "></p><p align="justify" style="line-height: 15px; "></p><p style="line-height: 15px; "></p><p align="justify" style="line-height: 15px; "></p><p style="line-height: 15px; "></p><p style="line-height: 15px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'courier new';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">KOZHIKODE: A documentary on singer Kozhikode Abdul Khader, also known as Kerala Saigal, will be screened in early November.</span></span></p><p style="line-height: 15px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'courier new';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">The 30-minute work, which unfolds through reminiscences of close associates, will bring out the singer’s persona as well as his musical prowess.</span></span></p><p style="line-height: 15px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'courier new';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Nadim Naushad, director of the documentary, says this is the first documentary on Abdul Khader, whose masterpiece is ‘Engane Nee Marakkum Kuyile’ from ‘Neela Kuyil.’ Along with M.S. Baburaj, Abdul Khader had brought much joy to music lovers in Kozhikode.</span></span></p><p style="line-height: 15px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'courier new';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">“I continue to be fascinated by the singer,” says Naushad, a teacher at the Kolathur Government Higher Secondary School. He had earlier directed a documentary on writer P. Valsala.</span></span></p><p style="line-height: 15px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'courier new';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Old visuals of Kozhikode city and charcoal sketches will be intersperse with the reminiscences, to provide a total picture. ‘Thangakinakkal Hridaye Veeshum’ the song in ‘Navalokam,’ for which Dakshina Murthy composed music, launched Abdul Khader as a cine playback singer in 1951,</span></span></p><p style="line-height: 15px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'courier new';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Najmal Babu, his son and singer, remembers.
