Maestro ilaiyaraaja news & titbits

[sudhakarg]

Nice initiative by Ilaiyathalam. I was a little disappointed with the first Q&A though. The reader's question was a very modest one. All that he/she wanted to know was the raga of the song confiding that his/her knowledge on this topic was limited. However when the same was passed on to Raja, it gave the impression to him that someone was actually questioning his knowledge on a raga, and there were giggles and laughter on how people often mistake ragas. This to me was unnecessary. I am sure this would've broken the heart of one true Raja fan.
