Pa-PA-Pa, a truly spectacular concept brings to light the unique
love depiction of bridal mysticism that the saint poets of south Indian
bakthi movement were engaged in. Parānkusa Nayaki, Pādavalla Nayaki and
Parakāla Nayaki, the heroines of Pa-PA-Pa are the pseudo
characterization of Nammāzhwar, Āndal and Tirumangai Āzhwar from the
galaxy of Āzhwar saints who were instrumental is spreading Vishnu bakthi
in south India.
Having fallen in love with the Supreme Lord, they chose to consider
themselves as his lady love and expressed their longing for him through
songs composed in Tamil. They managed to express some of their deepest
feelings for him and vividly portray their emotions to the joy of the
readers.
These songs detail out their prescribed way of pure love and devotion to
the Almighty and document them as approved methods that could be
adopted by devotees for more years to come. What would be a better idea
than to bring all three of the Lord's chosen heroines on stage and watch
them sing their hearts out to Him and cherish their thoughts!
