After a decent fight, this was what Arun and I could come up with for LitSoc Light Music Solo Competitions. Composed and sung by AR Rahman, it is a wonderful piece from the movie Kannathil Muthamittal. Just to be clear, me choosing the song and the ongoing clashes in Sri Lanka are purely coincidental.
Many thanks to Arun Nair (on the guitar) for helping me with it. Speaking of Arun Nair, fondly called Dus by many, he has been a constant source of inspiration to me and has been what one would call “the quintessential roommate”. I wasn’t one, though.
An awesome singer himself, he is now the captain of Tapti Hostel Football Team, being one of its most prolific players. There are too many attributes to be enumerated and I would best leave that for the Hostel Night.
Of course, comments welcome. As always.
Awesome da machcha.. cha i missed it live..
:( nd nice one arun..
That was an awesome rendition, wonderful articulate singing and nice work with the variations as well. Good choice of the song. I looked up the translation of the lyrics,its quite the unique one, hard on meaning, very poetic and touching. Thanks to you for sharing, else would have missed out on a very beautiful one! Cheers
Very well written!
