Maa

Friends,
This song needs no introduction...if you have seen the movie then you must have just loved this song. Its been sung on most reality shows most recently by Rahul Vidya. I heard the song first time on the internet (where else !) and i have not yet seen the movie. My friend's tell me that it is a 'guaranteed to make you cry' movie ! The song is just amazing..the lyrics absolutely beautiful and Shankar's voice just flows brilliantly throughout the song. I have made an attempt to sing it. Please have a listen at your convenience.

Soumitra,

Wonder how I missed this song :)

First of all beautiful pick for your voice. Feel was great. Felt the ending notes @ some places could have trailed off, just might have given that pathos an added shine.

Nice one overall...
