Unakkena Naan Lyrics Translation Deepak Blue | Deepthi Suresh | Nitham Oru Vaanam
Krithika Nelson’s writing shows smiles replacing frowns as vows are exchanged. The phrase ‘Pazhaiya Kadhai Pazhaiya Murai / Adhai Marappom’ rejects past traditions while blending turmeric and rice symbolize new unity.
