Ding dong kovil mani !


Vidyasagar - One of the striking characteristics of his career has been that he sticks to quality of music in his own way, the kind of music he believes in, irrespective of the people involved in a particular project and their popularity. Madhu Balakrishnan had sung a few numbers in Tamil and I have always wondered why he does not have many offers in Tamil Industry. His voice has a natural, flawless melodious tone to it that absolutely works for composers with great flair for melody like Illaiyaraja and Vidyasagar.
This song “Ding dong “ from the movie Jee is very soft and soulful number whose cadence are brilliantly accentuated by the singers. The instrumentation is also very apt. This song is the only relieving feature of a complete failure movie

I rendered this song with my friend Ganesh Ram, who has a distinct voice. I have great privilege and pleasure to introduce him to this blog world. I would like to thank him for this wonderful rendition and the time he spent for sound mixing. Hope you all enjoy this song. Let me know your feedback.
Song : Ding dong koyil

Dole dole !


Dole dole is a sensuous duet song. Suchitra's voice is very catchy while Ranjith tries hard to keep pace with her. The excellent use of violin and sitar in the interludes gives a good feel. Manisharma has come up with stylish and peppy numbers for Pokiri. He has retained some of his tunes in the original version for the Tamil remake.
I always have a special feel to sing a song which has western touch. I tried my level best with this song. Let me know your feedback.
