Clue 1: Musical --> Sonata --> a car manufactured by Hyundai in India
Clue 2: Windgod --> Maruti
Clue 3: Mythicalship --> Pushpaka Vimana --> Pushpak -> Multi-utility vehicle manufactured by Hindustan Motors
Hence TL: Automobiles manufactured in India.
Sonata is a composition. Can it be interpreted as a musical? Hence your conclusion is not accepted.
Casablanca
Musical : Oklahama
Windgod : Hawaii
Mythical Ship : Noahs Ark - Ark short for Arkansas
TL - USA states
fantastic guess, vidya! i love that hawaii connection. unfortunately not what i had in mind. i can give you one notional brownie for your efforts.
MICHAEL JORDAN
Clue 1: Musical = Chicago = Chicago Bulls
Clue 2: Windgod = His Airness
Clue 3: Mythicalship = Argo = a short movie directed by Jordan Bayne & Michael Knowles
Clue 1: Musical- Oklahoma - one of the ships attacked in Pearl Harbor
Clue 2: Windgod - Kamikaze
Clue 3: Mythicalship - Enterprise - aircraft carrier that helped defend Pearl Harbor
Trylateral - The Pearl Harbor attack
how does kamikaze lead to windgod? nimish's short film connection is too contrived.
kamikaze in japanese means "Divine Wind"
bought your point. but it still seems like force fitting.
Trylateral is Australia.
1) Musical - Opera - Sydney Opera House - Famous Australian landmark.
2) Windgod - Auster - Roman god of the south wind - The name Austalia comes from the Latin word Australis, meaning "of the South".
3) Mythicalship - Argo - The ship on which Jason and the Argonauts sailed from Iolcus to retrieve the Golden Fleece - Australia is known as "The Land of the Golden Fleece" because of the quantity of wool produced there.
how confused can one be:
Musical - Hiawatha's Wedding feast - Samuel Coleridge taylor musical
Windgod - the west-wind god - Hiawatha's father
Mythicalship - phantom ship -- HW Longfellow poem
Try 1: Hiawatha
Musical - phantom of the opera
windgod - walk's like the wind
Mythicalship - phantom ship
Try 2: phantom
priya's guess is plausible. a notional brownie awarded. but i think my answer fits like a glove.
anantha - you sure must be getting a kick from making all us drudges wondering how you think!
Flying Dutchman
Which is both a musical piece and a mythical ship.
The wind gods are probably necessary to get the ships moving, mythical or otherwise
My first guess here-
Musical - Lion King - Kesari - Hanuman's father
Windgod - Marut/Vayu - Hanuman is considered his son too (hence Maruti)
Mythicalship - Hanuman carried Ram and Laxman on his shoulders.
Trylateral - Hanuman
Clue 1: Musical - Opera
Clue 2: Windgod - Thunderbird - Mozilla
Clue 3: Mythicalship - Argo
Trylateral - Web Browsers
windgod = NE WIND + DEVA = NEVADA - LAS VEGAS
MUSICAL - OKLAHOMA
MYTHICALSHIP - ARGO - ARGOSY
SO TL - GAMBLING CASINOS
TL - PILGRIM FATHERS STTLEMENT TO AMERICA
MUSICAL - AMERICA
WINDGOD - GODSPEED - SPEEDWELL, THE OTHER SHIP IN THE CONVOY'
MYTHICALSHIP - PUSHPAKVIMAN - FLOWER SHIP - MAYFLOWER
good guess. notional brownie awarded. but for the real one, you'll have to try harder.
Hi.. this TL has already happened before but anyway
TL - Flying Dutchman
Musical : Opera - Wagner's Flying Dutchman
Mythical ship : DIrect clue - Flying Dutchman
Windgod : Royal Aviation - KLM - their loyaly program was called Flying Ducthman
ok this is not the tl but the thot could help - maybe twinkle 2..
wind god - could be hawa + allah - hawala - money laundering - surf/rin
musical - cd be hair - shampoo - sunsilk/clinic
pushpak viman - vaseline or cd refer to ponds - skincare
so tl - hll pdt portfolio?
