We posted last year on an alleged interpretation of Jack 'n Jill by KL Saigal, but of course the oeuvre is endless. Here's an actress from a Tamil sitcom in which you can experience Twinkle Twinkle in various South and North Indian renderings.
According to one YouTube commenter, the first Twinkle Twinkle she performs is in Vasantha Ragam.
I particularly like the endless laugh track, and the token suspicious neighbor who shows up near the end. Anyone know the Tamil serial, or the Bollywood film that shows up at the end of the clip? Love that dress.
For those new to the art of Indian nursery song drills, check out this video. Also, Bhai's version. And this clip has renderings of Twinkle Twinkle in Carnatic and Bollywood styles. And here's a version of Baa Baa Black Sheep, with tabla, and yet another, performed by what appears to be some sort of teacher. This Twinkle Twinkle, lip-synched by an Indian teenager in school uniform, is sped up and a little eerie. I really must pull myself away now.
