Last two days

First of all I must say this. I am an above average music appreciator.  I do not know carnatic music. But I have '#Pythashastri' taalam. 

I spent 4 years in Coimbatore and listened to film music.  I came back to Delhi in 1991 and thereafter stayed in northern India. Songs of Tamil cinema before 1990s are known to me. Ilaiyaraja,  MSV and others.

Then I listened to 'Thirukural' film songs.  'Thirukural' is a 2025 movie and the music is by Ilaiyaraja.  I loved the compositions.

After that AI and Youtube kept suggesting the latest songs of Ilaiyaraja.  I listened to about 15 new songs of Ilaiyaraja.  All of 2000s and later. I loved all the songs . There were awesome sound in them and they were magnetic. 

Spotify has a collection of new hits of Ilaiyaraja and Bose supports Spotify too. I shall listen to new songs of Ilaiyaraja in Bose 500.

The 'breeze of Ilaiyaraja of 1980s' seemed absent but 'the folk' and 'the sounds' were there. This is what I felt. 

I listen closely to Yuvan and Harris Jayaraj too.

A bad man

I think I am a bad man. And selfish.  And uncouth.

Sachin- Jigar

Sachin Jigar gives good songs to Bollywood these days. They were good in Stree 2 movie. And the recent song of theirs 'Naamumkin' is a great number and is frequently played in radio. I like the song 'Naamumkin' a lot.

Hey Sachin-Jigar,

Greetings.

If possible try these two things.

1. Use Mohit Chauhan in one of your songs.

2. Make songs of Pune, songs of Kolhapur, Songs of Kutch etc. taking a cue from Ilaiyaraja sir.

Best wishes,

With heaps of best wishes,

Kirtivasan
