Zarina,
Harish Raghavendra did not come to Malaysia on Deepavali day, he came before to do the show. What song does he like in the film karna? Your writing not clear.

The show was superhit in Astro TV.He just did the show with ease and made every song interesting by referring to incidents relating to each song and also the significance of each song.Good show HR.

BTW, Harish Raghavendra turned up on a mock-Patti mandram on Deepavali day(on KTV, i think). It was moderated by Gangai Amaran.
BTW, is this thread the Ladies Hostel of newtfmpage?

This is the problem with the tamil audiences and this attitude must certainly change.Please dont think that a person is capable of doing just one job.If HR has the talent and the flair to act let him go ahead with it rather than discouraging or demoralising the person.The guy has done justice to all the songs incl songs from Solla Marantha Kadhai(Gundu malli) ,Ae Nenjae(April Maadhathil),Vaanam Pootha(Punnagai Poovae) and so on.If we can enjoy the songs sung by great actors like Vijay,Silambarasan,Kamalhassan etc we can also appreciate the acting talents of a singer .
Hope i am rite

I just loved HR's song "Vaanam Pootha Poomazhayae" from Yuvan shankar raja's latest release "Punngai Poovae".All songs are really good and westernised but this song is classical raga based melodious song beautifully rendered by HR and Ranjini.

excellent control of pitch and delivery for a very melodious tune
what do you think

i still think hr's best is the phenomenal "alagiya theeyae" from minnalae. "yamini yamini" is a close second, though.

Hi tfm guys and girls
I am a die hard fan of HR and i feel he is the best among the modern day singers in his tamil clarity and diction.He is very versatile like my all time favorite SPB the great.
I love all his songs
"Gundu malli" from "solla marantha kadhai"
"Ae Nenjae" from "April Maathahil"
"Etho Etho" from "Laysa Laysa"
"Vaanam Pootha " from "Punngai poove".
all these songs are really well rendered with great feeling.

I read that "Vikatan" 's shooting is almost over and the film would be releasing by Feb/March.I just loved Harish Raghavendra's latest song "Vaanam Thoovum" from the film "Punnagai Poove".YSR has composed so melodiously like his father IR style.The new female singer Ranjini has done a good job as well.

Hi folks,
Its good to read that Harish has a lot of good fans like you guys! As a matter of fact, I am a very good friend of Harish since he was in college. He still has not changed despite all this fame!
According to him, his movie, Vikatan, is probably going to be released in January (Pongal).

Here is a lot of informations about Harish Raghavendra:
He has sung for about a hundred jingles, an equal number of film songs in Tamil, a song each in Hindi and Malayalam, and about thirty songs for Telugu films.
On his entry into singing: He hails from a family of musicians, from Palladam a village near Coimbatore, his father is a mridangam and ghatam player. He had no formal training in music, however, and got into jingles at a very young age. He has sung for about a 100 of them in all south Indian languages. His first attempt at playback singing was when in 1997, Telugu music director Raj (Raj-Koti) signed him to sing for the Telugu film Panjaram. He was only 18 then. Vidhyasagar was the first to sign him for Tamil, for the R K Selvamani-directed Arasiyal (song was Vaasagi Vaasagi) It was only after that, that he started taking some training in music and vocals. He draws his inspiration from the great maestros in the film industry. A commerce graduate from the Vivekananda College in Chennai.
On the song that made him popular: Though he had got an introduction in two languages, and had sung for some more films it was the song from Bharathy after three years, that got him noticed. Nirpadhuve Nadappadhuve, tuned by Ilayaraja was the one that established his credentials. It was a turning point in his career. Almost simultaneously came Minnale for Harris Jayaraj (a song in its Hindi version too). Azhagiya Theeyae earned him accolades. Since then he has sung for all of Harris Jayaraj's films till Laysa Laysa.
On his hit songs: After Bharathy and Minnale, he sang for Dumm Dumm Dumm (Designu Raja) for the Vijay starrer Shahjahan where the songs by Mani Sharma were major hits. In Youth it was the popular song Sakkarai Nilavae. Then came songs for films like, Dheena, Samurai, Sree, April Madhathil, Solla Marantha Kadhai (again for Ilayaraja); Run for Vidhyasagar, and the latest is the P C Sreeram-directed Vaanam Vasaipadum for the late Mahesh. He has crossed the century mark and sung for almost all the younger heroes and music directors.
On singing in other languages: After Panjaram, he sang for the Telugu film, Neetho under Vidhyasagar's baton. He has since sung for about thirty songs for Telugu, including for films like Cheli, and Priyadarshini. He just entered the Malayalam field and sang a song tuned by Manikandan.
On singing for Ilayaraja and his sons: He feels, Ilayaraja is a hard taskmaster and a perfectionist and it's really tough singing for him, because he does not let go till he gets the result he wants. It's like a training ground for any singer, and singing for Ilayaraja, Harish has become more disciplined and streamlined in his singing. He says, Karthik Raja and Yuvan Shankar are his age group; there's a lot of informality and the duo are more flexible.
Why not A R Rahman: He really hasn't sung for Rahman. He hopes it happens in the near future and he is looking forward to it!
On his future plans: Harish says, "Music is my passion and I'll continue singing. As for acting, it all depends on the response to my first film. I'll wait for the release and then decide".
And now Harish Raghavendra emerges in his new avatar as a hero, and one can soon see him on the screen in the film Vikadan, lip-syncing and dancing to his own songs with the buxom Gayathri Raghuram for company. "Music is my top priority", says Harish, the singer-turned-actor.

I think HR has sung for all music directors and has sufficient number of hits to be called one of the leading singers of the current days but why hasnt Rahman used him till now?
