Idly Kadai directed and headlined by Dhanush is an upcoming Tamil language movie that releases in theaters on October 1, 2025. At a time when India is reeling from the shock of back to back headlines about gruesome violence against women—like Noida's Nikki Bhati case, and the Karnataka murder case, where a 20 year old woman's mouth was blown up using explosives, the second single from Idly Kadai comes with lyrics that remind of India's ethos towards women.
Idly Kadai second single Enjaami Thandhaane is a Tamil folk number composed by GV Prakash. Film's writer, director, lead actor Dhanush has self-written the lyrics for this song, and has also sung it. While the rap portions of Enjaami Thandhaane are by Arivu, a line from Dhanush's lyrics goes, "Sondha Mannayum Pennayum Kumbidanum Namma Paattanum Poottanum Sonnadhayya". This translates to 'One should worship homeland and women, this has been told by our ancestors.'.
While the song in general is about thanking God for the blessings he has given a man in a rural area, Dhanush chose a still with little girls to be the cover of Enjaami Thandhaane, indicating that the line about worshipping women is significant to the track.Produced by Wunderbar Films, and Dawn Pictures, Idly Kadai has Saregama for the audio rights.
