IlayaRaja's New Albums 2013-15 - Mahendran film/Thaarai thappattai/Mythri

It seems Balki (cheeni kum and paa) was part of IR's "ENDRENDRUM RAJA" show and he talked about IR on stage. A snippet:

"...But then, Balki dropped the bomb! "When Raja sir played me the tune, I suggested that he use this for a song rather than waste it as a piece of background music. But he went ahead with this. I would ask today's composers to not lift tunes from his songs; instead, they could lift from the BGMs for even the tunes of his background scores are so good," he said..."

Not much value add being on stage, because what he demonstrated (showing scene with and without BGM) is known to everyone!

PAA had IR experimenting more with JAZZy stuff (and electric guitar, especially). Wish Balki had talked about such things.
