IR's En Vaanilae...from Johny and Nora Jones's "Don't know why.."

You would have known already Norah Jones is the daughter of Ravi Shankar(a famous indian Sitar musician, he is 86 years old, and Nora is 23 years old) and won 5 grammy awards. If you listen to the music of the album "Come away with me", the first song "Dont know why..." sounds like Kulaiyum kural of Chitra. And the music has very good style similar to IR's "En Vaanilae...". If IR writes songs with guitar and piano alone with English lyrics, may be IR would win grammy awards....
I would like you to pour expert opinion on that Jazz song and why it sounds very similar to IR's 80's slow melodies...

  IR should go ahead and win grammy as he has already won many grammea virudhugal.
  
  Babomashoy Ravishankar,Lady Nora,Lady Anoushka and granddaughter Kid Kaveri and all those who have won any musical award in the past or present and going to win in the future ,you all sound similar to IR s 80 melody songs!
  
  Bruce too won an award or two.So you can safely open another topic "Had IR BORN IN USA" he would have composed Bruce s "Born in USA".

  Looks like IR's spy has lost his marbles and become a complete cuckoo.
  Appave amma appa sonnanga, kekala ithaan gathi.
  
  Flush out IR from your system and you may have hope.

  What was the actual name her father gave her? Does anybody recall?

  Ravi Shankar never said he was her father until recently. So i guess he didnt name her.
