The experience was wonderful. Previously I had only worked with people who are my age, people who are contemporary. But with Raja Sir, it was very different. He is a great composer and I got to learn many new things. Also, with him, you have to write to precomposed tunes. All the Paa tunes were already there. He was very particular about the phonetics of the songs, the musicality. He is such a simple person. He has done 1,900 films but after meeting him, you will never come to know that.

sema comedyppa intha aaloda :rotfl3:

i just saw Ilayaraja sir at thiruvannamalai temple. i saw him within a foot's distance. People around me saluted him and he reciprocated warmly as he kept walking. I was too shocked to react, extraordinary xperience.

He was along with karthik raja, his daughtrinlaw, his 2 grandsons. He was particularly fond of his 2nd grandson :-) .

You are blessed and lucky Maddy! I am still waiting for the day!

AhA! Isn't it true that God gives dharisanam not to die hard devotees but the agnostics and atheists? :-)
(Just kidding maddy)

yes, this was my first time.......i found it very difficult starting up and was panting......then there was a paranormal shift in my energy levels and finished the walk quite easily.....something divine and seeing raaja so close by - another divine experience :bow:
