  Folks,
  
  Today is indeed IG's(IsaiGnani's) Birthday. In Singapore Radio Oli 96.8, listeners were requested call the station to wish IG on his birthday. Some of the songs he rendered were also played in between the calls. I tuned in a bit late anticipating such a programme as I know his B'day quite well before.
  
  I listened live to some 10 people wishing him and 20 other mentioned by the programme conductor. Almost all of them were emotional talking about IR and especially those females. Everybody expressed that they could not find a deserving word to praise him but ultimately most of them told that 'Avar Romba Nalla Irukkanum' and anybody could easily understand their emotion in their voice. Except for one or two in 20's all others were in their mid/late 30's and two other's b'day is also same as mottai. Hearing that phrase 'Avar romba ...' (as though he is a kodai vallal)repeatedly from many, it made me very emotional and I was in tears. Guys, do not tease me for this or call it as hero-worship, I did not even realised I got tears. Only my wife pointed it as we were having breakfast while listening to the radio. It happens to me when listen to some of his compositions. Even some of the callers today mentioned the same.
  
  I wish IlayaRaaja a Very Happy, Spiritual & Musical Birthday.

  Friends,
  Thank you so much for giving info on IR's birthday. Isaignani, Isaipuyal, Raga rishi, Nadabrahmom no ... these names are not at all appropriate for this genius. We should dedicate one life to find such a word to call this man. Such a great soul he is. Wish him best out of the best in the coming years.
  Expecting his masterpiece yet to come....

  Indian,
  
  I think you got excited to call IR as Isaipuyal. Puyal will 'Veesufy' for limited period endru maranddhu vidakkudadhu ;-)
  
  I like the following in Pagalavan Kavidhai today...
  
  Endrendrum IsaiPerarasil Nee Amardhiruppadhu ariyasanamthan;
  Adhai Verum Narkkali endru Vedikkai Pesuvadhu - Isaiye arriya sanamtthan(music-ignorant people)
  
  I also like two other paras that mention his BGM skill and the one that says his instruments speak.
  Lovely Kavidhai.
  
  Any other comments on his Kavidai??
  
  Very good point!

  But do something/make a pluge for this birthday...
  1. Don't do music like in Veera Thalattu
  2.Please, ask your daughter to practice(Horrible voice).
  
  3. If you realy did the symphony please tell us the truth when it will come.
  
  4.Try to do 'pattuku mettu' atleast in one full film
  
  5. Finally stop singing for duets and do sing sad songs only.

  My God, What a fan am I ? I have never known his birthdate. Thx guys. Striking coincidence is that I bought "Poonthototam" today, and celebrated with that much talked about song !
  "Ennai Manithhu Vidungall"
  Isai Gnani, Raga devan, Maestro ... wish you a great Birthday !
  ILaiayaraja Vazgha Vazgha !

  Raajaakal pirantha naalukku nankodai vazhanguvaargal. Itho oru thamizhisai bakthanin vaendugol:
  1)Raaja, you may have gone beyond the requirements of TFM. I look forward to all your extra curricular creations in world music. Meanwhile, could you revisit the enthusiasm and restless invention of early years.(I know IR fans, he is still restless and inventive--but I'm referring to the carefree exhuberance IR possessed before he found GOD and became a sage)
  2)Could you please pick up a guitar and give simple elegant interludes like you did in so many early classics:
  "Thaalaattu Pillai Undu"
  "Perai Chollava"
  "Ilaya Nila"
  Could you also bring back your forgotten instruments like Trumpet (Germaniyin Senthaen Malarae, Vaalibamae Vaa Vaa), Veenai (Nam thana Nam thana, Kannan Oru Kai Kuzhanthai, Manjal veyil maalai itta), Piano (en vaanilae orae vennila), Mirudhangam (Andhi Mazhai, Poo Malarnthida)
  3)Could you please pick a few good poets like Mu. Mehtha, Muthulingam, Piraisoodan, or at least Gangai Amaran?
  4)Bring back SPB to TFM.
  5)I keep hearing about all these classics you give MFM, what did we do to not deserve the same?

  If u wann'a' criticize IR go and start a new thread, why the damm u r getting .... off when someone praises IR.
  
  I know that u have been doing this with the TTV forum also.
  
  This thread is meant for people giving IR their wishes.
  
  Better restrain from this.

  buddy, Cool down! We already know that the better way to respond to these sort of things is NOT to respond at all. I think 'Avai Arindhu Pesuvathu Panpandu'. This topic is solely for those who want to wish. Initially I wanted to respond for using words like Che... but then I decided to ignore. I think Ravi would not have seen this otherwise he would have given some advice for using words like Che... Jalra... etc., It does not look very polite or civilised. Ofcourse, nobody can beat 'Diamond' in terms of jalra.
  
  I was expecting more people like our friend Prakash earlier in other topics like 'IR in Malaysia', 'TFM without IR' etc., The bottom line is some people could not accept the support IR has from TFM lovers worldwide and they could not digest the 'Rajangam' IR fans are enjoying in this forum.
  
  panivanbudan,

  HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE GREAT MUSICIAN OF ALL TIMES OF TFM.
  
  LET HIM CONQEUR THIS FIELD AS LONG AS MUSIC LIVES.
  
  HOPE HE BRINGS BACK HIS MAGICAL TOUCHES AS LISTED BY UDHAYA.
  
  I AM LOOKING FWD FOR THAT TYPE OF CLASSICS BY HIM.
  
  VEERA THALATHU HAS TWO WONDERFULL GANAS, PLS TRY TO LISTEN TO IT AGAIN MR.PRAKASH.
  
  U R RIGHT MFM LET IGNORE THIS UNCIVILISED PEOPLE.
  
  ONCE AGAIN LET THIS MOTHER OF ALL MUSIC LIVE LONGER FOR THE BEST OF TFM.
  
  
  NO:1 IR FAN

  Hold On... Hold On...
  
  Have you read the Pi.Ku... that says Vanjaga... (Vanchaga) Pugazhchi Aani...which means igazhvadhu pol pugazhvadhu.. I talked about Raja that way only.
  
  Veera Thallattu had 6 or 8 songs. Most of the tunes are same. One good song which was sung by Radhika in the movie. I can't re-collect the song. 1 out of 6or 8 was good. We can't expect this kind of music from Raja.
  
  As my 'buddy' mentioned, I was wrong to put the message in this thread. 'buddy' I am wishing Raja and ask him what I expected from him.
  
  I didn't make any flame in this forum.
  
  Sorry For The Trouble...
