Tamil Folk Songs / நிக்கட்டுமா... போவட்டுமா...

Folk song refers to the songs sung by people living in rural areas in their daily life, during working hours in industries, and during festivals. They also play a role in creating harmony among employees during joint work such as climbing. These often reflect the national opinion on the events of the respective period.

Although such songs have been handed down as an oral tradition, they are often preserved without much change. At the same time, they come into use in general practice in such a way that no one can be identified as their authors.
