I had earlier written the following:
* 'kooththu' does not refer to holding hands and forming a
* chain. Rather, the word 'kuravai' denotes this. 'kuravai' also
* does not directly mean this. 'kuravai' is the thamil word for
================================
* one of the 7 svaras.
====================
This is wrong. I apologise. 'kural' is one of the 7 svaras.
'kuravai' refers to the tune or raga.
