Thanks RS !

I expected some credits at the end showing IR's name ! But as usual he will go unnoticed, I suppose :(

Thats the beauty of IR's music.He has churned out countless number of such kuthu songs, but there was rythem and harmony in all those kuthu songs.thats amazing you know, on the one hand you would enjoy the lively/energetic music on the other hand you dont get irritated coz there wasnt any rythem/harmony.

its realy difficult to have these qualities in such kuthu numbers, but IR did it with ease. ippa vara kuthu songs a ketta :x , hmm.. Athu oru kana kaalam!!!

Emotional scenes !!

Overwhelmed by the response and admitting his entry into the twilight of his career, Ilayaraja turned emotional at the fag end of his speech and declared, “Even if not on the music charts or in tinsel town buzz, I will remain firmly ensconced in the hearts of music lovers...!”


Nicchayamaa thalaivaa..Naanga irukkom unakkaaga !

The fact that the music is being composed by southern maestro Ilayaraja and Hindustani music exponent Pandit Bhimsen Joshi has lent his voice to the thought-provoking number, is giving it cult status.

"We want to make the album, which will be released by the year-end, world class. For Birlas, Gandhi's thoughts are priceless and we want to spread this bhajan to GenNext. We have given a copy to Tushar Gandhi, the great-grandson of the Mahatma," adds Parekh.


Adhenna..Southern Maestro ?? Thirundhave maataanunga :sigh2:

raja_fan, most great composers (not the Indian filmy ones) careers begin post 60 years of age - John Williams is 70plus and going strong - IR is in that league - please wait, IR will get a big push up soon!

Thanks RS for the song.

I think it is the Pandit's voice in the beginning and later someone else picks up. Someone who is an expert in Hindustani music can clarify.

A very nice and pleasing tune. Very apt for a bhajan.

Tune seems to be based on Sindhu Bhairavi, a raga well suited for bhajans.

I guess, for a change, we don't have to expect an audio release :).

Why not! If at all, only IR can do this as well. "Nisabdhathayum Saththamaai kodukkum thiran yaarukku irukku?"

Mahatma's Bhajan - got a new life.

Song is heavenly!!!

Is that the only song in the album. Hope more is there.

I am wondering, being IR fans, are we all 'sub consciously' doing that as we are yet to accept that his time is 'over' (which is not a bad thing either)?
