This is my first A-Z challenge #A
I would like to start this with the one with which my everyday starts. Music - One's best companion even during the worst times. Music is my everything. It makes me happy round the clock, throughout the calendar. Yet, my day starts with a particular musician's work. Allah Rakha Rahman - the real legend!
Be it his version of Suprabatham or his golden melodies or even his heavy fast beats, this "Mozart of madras", never fails to entertain us! This 50 year old man has the ability to win every single heart. Right from bairns to gramps. Love has no language borders. So does his music. Its always a pure bliss to render our ears to his compositions in his own voice
"Mustafa Mustafa" from "Kadhal desam" , "Vellai pookal" from "Kannathil muthamittal", His very own "Maa! Tujse salaam" even the last two verses of "Malargal ketean" from " Ok Kanmani" gives a divine feel..
He's not only a pioneer in his own field but also a man of humbleness. The Oscar laureate, impressed everyone through his acceptance speech by expressing his gratitude towards the Almighty. Rahman makes music out of silence. His music is truly universal as he is able to connect with the global audience which others fail to do. This music wizard has been persevering since Roja days when he made his debut as a music director. He doesn't work to be in the limelight. He works for his own satisfaction.
He not only says but also proves that, " The idea of music is to liberate the listener and lead him to a frame where he feels he is elevated "
Precisely, ARR is better than the best!

Hi. The post did manage to express your love for ARR. Had you written about the precise feel of the songs you loved, wouldve been great. A small suggestion, this font is difficult to read. Pls have a simpler one that is legible. Rock on :) All the best for the challenfe.

ReplyDeleteGreetings, Vishnu! I found your blog through the A to Z Challenge!
ReplyDeleteI do agree with Malarikka (?) that the font, while lovely, is not difficult to read at that size. (Of course, that could be because I'm getter older.)
Do you have any suggestions as to where on the internet is best maybe to hear some of A R Rahman's compositions?
