Interesting blogs...they also reflect the general disliking of an average IR admirer on one thing...pushing his children into his contributions / programs that takes away the shine a little bit

Raaja Raajathaan

It's amazing to give live music in sport stadiums. Hope Raja does some more shows. There are many other songs of his that deserve to be picked.

Raja could have avoided repeating the songs that were sung in Jaya Tv's concert !

Rajavin paadalgalukkaa panjam ?!

Jaya TV's coverage of "Andrum endrum maestro" programme was leagues ahead the sloppy, "eno thaano" Kalaignar TV's "Raja Raja thaan". I felt disappointed by the timing, coverage, publicity given to an extremely rare event like this.
About the programme, flautist Napolean deserves full praise for his impeccable rendition in many songs, esp in the "Azhagi" song "paatu cholli" , his frontal flute passage was spell binding. Chitra , just about effectively replaced SJ in many of her duets with SPB. Her "endhu paranjaalum" solo melody from "achuvinte amma" melted many hearts for sure. SPB cut short his usual "over the top" improvisations[ IR's looming figure around?]
Khush and Jeyaram could have done better.
IR and his family cannot sing for nuts . So why are they indulging in this cruelty time and again?
IR composed around 30 tunes before his first tune "Andhi mazhai" was selected, for "Raja paarvai". Raja also admitted to have used the remaining tunes. Iam left wondering what those songs could be.

IR's programme in Kalaignar TV :

Good, but still will be behind his programme for Jaya TV.

* Same songs were repeated making viewers wonder at times whether they are seeing the same programme again.

* Rehearsal could have been surely better. Lot of misses and problems in sync.

* Acoustics and mikes. Many violin and guitar pieces were almost unaudible. Why did they try "Rakkamma" on stage

But one thing was made clear. Raja's association with Malayalam land was brought forth in a way as never before.

So our Tamil people who might have been thinking that Raja has retired, would have now come to know that he has been capturing Mallu people hearts silently all these years

Saw "Idea Star Singer" in Asianet. They have a separate round for "IR hits" now !
