Rasas in “Goldfinger”
Tuesday, May 25th, 2010I have been listening to the song Goldfinger from the James Bond movie. I have always liked the song. After seeing this video of the live concert did I realize why the liking. I could identify at least 6 rasas. The way Shirley switches from one to the other is remarkable too. She should have been an Indian classical dancer seeing her mettle in expressions. I have tried to take screenshots to show what I mean.

Rasa - Adbhutam (Amazement)

Rasa - Hasyam (Laughter)

Rasa - Karunyam (Compassion)

Rasa - Vatsalya (parental love)

Rasa - Vibhatsa (disgust)

Rasa - Viram (heroic mood)
Do comment if you see any other rasa in the video.
