What has rain got to do with love??

This question has haunted me ever since I watched rain songs in movies...the rain becoming the reason for someone falling in love and so on...until the ultimate rain movie called Mungaru Male came up in  2006 as a lover's tribute to rain. Watching that movie over and over again gave me my answers..Ganesh was just the hero of the movie...the supporting cast was led by mungaru male or the first rain...brilliant lyrics of the title song penned by its now iconic director Yograj Bhat and the story by Preetham will never be forgotten. The subsequent maleyalli joteyalli intensified my interest in rain and love and the rain triology is going to get an interesting conclusion by Shashank in this year's mungaru male 2 again with ganesh....he is the man of rain...

Now back to my question....What has rain got to do with love??

The first droplets of rain falling on dry land signify the first crush in life...
the downpour getting stronger meaning the roller coaster of emotions taking hold of one's heart.

Then the rain leading to the growth of seeds in to crop....signifying the the love struck youngsters becoming serious in relationships...

The thunder and lightning....emotional outbursts in relatiinship...

The temporary halt of the rain...
the time when people stop talking due to misunderstandings..

The rain getting non stop...leading to flood....can signify heartbreak when flooded emotions go in vain as love that is not returned...

The end of rainy season...the end of honeymoon period in relationship...

A balanced rain leads to good crops....and a balanced approach to love leads to strong relationships.....

Rain is simply too poetic to capture it in prose and analyse...as i start remembering the now cult lines...mungaru maleye enu ninna hanigala leele....oh first rain what trick your droplets have played??

making me write an entire post on rain....
