9 Nelalu or Tommidi Nelalu (English: 9 Months) is a 2001 Telugu language drama film directed by Kranthi Kumar. The film features Soundarya and Vikram in the lead roles. The film opened in 2001 to positive reviews from critics. The film was later dubbed and released in Tamil as Kanden Seethaiyai. The film was premiered retrospective at the Toronto Film Festival in Canada. The director shot the film in 15 days.
The film revolves around Savitri (Soundarya), an innocent simple and loving orphan, and Surendra (Vikram), an intelligent computer programmer. When Savitri has a marriage arranged with a drunkard, Surendra stops this alliance and graciously agreed to marry her.
However, trouble starts when Surendra's brainchild, a virtual reality program on temples of South India is sabotaged, and he is accused of selling out to a rival company. Disillusioned by the sudden turn of events, he crashes into a truck and sustains a serious head injury that requires a major operation.
Savitri finds herself deserted by all her well-wishers when it comes to financial help, and her husband's life hangs in the balance. A lady doctor suggests that she become pregnant through artificial insemination for a rich man, whose wife is impotent, in exchange for monetary remuneration. Savitri agrees and the rest of the film is based on the social stigma attached to artificial insemination and surrogate motherhood.
barbarians are coming
crawling from the east,
(with their) eyes wide shut
and nostrils full of longing,
epic and powerful,
wild in a group,
barbarians are coming
from the east.
they'll come out of nowhere,
they'll enter your state,
the nation of losers,
the tribe full of hate.
with knives in their pockets
and bombs in their hands,
they'll burn down your cities
and your disneylands.
(choir:)
barbarians are coming, heading your way.
the evil is rising, kneel down and pray.
with third world hunger,
sex drive in their brains,
they'll whisper your names
and scream in your face.
when they search for their space,
they'll turn into snakes,
and you're better off dead
if they crawl in your bed.
(choir:)
barbarians are coming, heading your way.
the evil is rising into your day.
barbarians are coming, heading your way.
the evil is rising, kneel down and pray.
they'll conquer your country
and make you all slaves,
they'll burn down your houses
and rave at your graves.
you'd better get ready,
you'd better beware.
banging at your windows,
barbarians are here
(choir:)
barbarians are coming, heading your way.
the evil is rising, kneel down and pray.
barbarians are coming, heading your way.
