Introduction
"Theethiriyaai" is the Tamil version of the hit love song from the 2022 film Brahmastra Part One: Shiva, starring Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt.

The Song
Theethiriyaai is Shiva's declaration of love for Isha in Brahmastra, the moment the fire-powered hero admits that the strongest force in his universe is not an astra but a person. Madhan Karky's Tamil words keep the theme of the Hindi original - love arriving like a flame and colouring everything - while giving it a distinctly Tamil poetic texture, and Sid Sriram's soaring voice carries the melody from a whisper to a blaze.
The Artists
Sid Sriram is one of South India's most distinctive playback voices, famous for blending Carnatic inflections with contemporary production, and his rendition made the Tamil version a hit in its own right. The music is by Pritam, the composer of the entire Brahmastra album, and the Tamil lyrics are by celebrated lyricist and writer Madhan Karky.

The official video, titled "BRAHMĀSTRA (Tamil) | Theethiriyaai Video | Ranbir | Alia | Pritam | Sid Sriram | Madhan Karky", was released on the Sony Music South YouTube channel and features Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt. You can watch the official video embedded below on this page.

Theethiriyaai Lyrics in Roman Tamil
Konaalo asyamle aadije
Yendhanule he unkannile aadije
Vinnena madiminnum ayahayi
Irigayi koovittan avanunne paditha
Theeravanum kannanshediki
Naamulle dhiye yenkaha avankodita
Theethiriyaai aaney kunnanendile
Seeri theedanimbe theeyindenele
Yen meedhivavali neeye vendume
Koe iranaedra adhipodhume
Nee adhihaali keetrinodiya
Menpesum kaatrinmodiya
Kannale yennaikothi
Adahaakum maase odiyaa
Nee tharegeda ninnithohada
Vennili vinkalasi mahaada
Maditavani perumayi pesum
Needanav kohada
Randathim nimbattim mothakayi
Tankayi laditha pinnune vaditha
Theeravanum kannanshediki
Naamulle dhiye yenkaha avankodita
Theethiriyaai aaney kunnanendile
Seeri theedanimbe theeyindenele
Yen meedhivavali neeye vendume
Koe iranaedra adhipodhume
Lyrics Meaning in English
Theethiriyaai means "like a spark of fire", and the song is a love declaration built on that image. The hero tells the woman that she has entered his eyes and his heart like a flame; her glance has pierced him and lit a fire that will not go out, and whatever storms come, she is the one he needs beside him. It is the Tamil counterpart of Kesariya's central idea - that love has arrived as light and fire, colouring his whole world - sung here with Sid Sriram's trademark emotional intensity. Note: the Roman Tamil lines above are reproduced from the original post; a verified line-by-line English translation is being updated.
