This post features the Aanandham Athaki Swaaha song lyrics in Telugu and English from the Telugu movie Pekamedalu (2024). This folk-styled song, composed by Smaran Sai with lyrics by Bhargava Karthik, features Rajashekar Master and the Chakka Bhajana Troupe (Chakka Bhajana Troupe) and is sung by Sakae Rajashekar (Turakavaripalli). The song is similar to an anthem for women, particularly highlighting the struggles and discrimination faced by women.
The traditional Chekka Bhajan folk art, popular in the Rayalaseema region of Andhra Pradesh, is used to convey the powerful message. The lyrics, such as “Anandam Attaki Swaha, Manah Shanti Mamaki Swaha,” reflect the social issues faced by women, including the limited opportunities for education and employment, and the challenges of living under societal expectations. The song powerfully voices the concerns of women in a patriarchal society, speaking out about the inequities they experience.
