Her voice from 'Kichu Kichu' song in Baaba sounds very special. Is this her first song?

shiva ,
Her voice is OK ...It is unique ...but i doubt if her voice will rank on the likes of chita ,Sujatha ...
May be she will become a singer like anuradha sriram .....

Actually its Reena Bhardwaj, and she's from London. I think she did a great job, especially being a non-tamilian!

half u tamil speaking ppl in chennai can't even read tamil so why talk about north indians? so many tamil singers actually read the tamil words in english and sing them..what's important is the outcome..not what language they read it in.

hello laila,
Many tamil speaking people can't pronounce a few letters which is ok bcos they don't sing.
Then tamil singers dont read tamil words in english... If you have seen them, then name a few or atleast one. Whether you know it or not, in english, you cannot differentiate between vallinam and mellinam (dont't ask me what's that)
and so unless the MD points it out to the singer, the singer wouldn't know.. In ARR's case, the singer wouldn't know bcos ARR himself can't tell the difference. Tamil is a tongue twister. Its sounds irritating when singers sing in their 'nuni naakku'. This veena bharadwaj is one such singer. She may be a good singer in her own language but not acceptable in tamil.
Let me tell you something. I am not a tamil fanatic. I like all indian languages. But I would always insist that only a tamilian (or anyone who can speak tamil fluently) with good pronounciation should sing tamil songs. I know many people would disagree with me on this point but I don't care. I like util narayan, sukvinder singh, sadana sargam etc etc in hindi songs but defintely not when they sing in tamil bcos they just don't get it and this has a bad influence on the younger generations. Bcos this has become a tread now.
There are millions of tamil singers who are so talented but waiting for good opportunities.. so what's the need for a non-tamil to come and sing tamil songs??

Before blaming ARR, didnt IR introduce Asha Bhosle into Tamil. If I am not mistaken, she sang 2 songs.
So, where the heck is this blame of ARR starting it.

I agree with you x. One of my friend who is handicapped has a good voice. He has even released some cassettes. He is still looking for a chance. Asha Bhosle did her very best in Engirundho Azahaithen song. Latha did her best in Araro Araro Nee Vero song. They are legendary singers. Using them in couple of songs out of his 4000 songs do not mean he is the one who started it. But using North Indian singers is really an insult to tamil singers. For example "kuluvalile" song is probably one of the worst sung song in my living memory. SPB could have done a better job.
Don't blame IR sridhar.

Inviting North Indian singers is far better than listening to IR irritating voice & music. In fact IR is the one who insults Tamil music fans. That's why person who scored 4000 songs is no where today. Even dogs barking got more rhythms than IR's crap music.

Yea right.. you have won a new name for you in the other thread. Someone has given you. I guess it's very nice and appropariate name for you ST. Kirukkan. You can also have one more name 'Pethal Tilagam' because not a single posting of you made any sense. I symphatize with you... I sympathize with mentally retarded people like you.

Hahahaha!
Awe in his new avatar could not last and he ahs started doing what he does best!
Of course Kuluvalile would be the worst song you would have heard, bearing in mind that yor ears have molten lead in them.
Usually pigs do not know that they are in a sty. Similarly, you have lost all decent sense of music and that is why IR appeals to you.

Shall we list the ARR fans
Moron from Malaysia - God alias Nijam alias i
don't know what else
(Known for his split
personality. He would
support IR in one name
go after IR in another
name.. most hated person
in the thread)
Kirukkan from Eastcoast - ST
(Second most hated
person in the thread.
known for his Tharai
ticket language)
Low life from Ontario - Ayo pathikichu
( Another Disgusting guy
from ARR fans group.
Known for his explicit
use of banned words)
Muttal from Malaysia - WN... behaves like a
good fellow. But full
of venom.. third rate
fellow.
.......
The list goes on... Just take any thread.. just read the postings of the above mentioned guys.
Not even a single thread has made any sense.. They have nothing to appreciate about ARR. Because nothing is there to appreciate. All they can do is curse IR. All the IR fans have appreciated IR more than gone after ARR. But in ARR fans case it is ulta. Only way they can make their presence felt is by pulling down IR.. IR is everest.. ARR is saint thomas mount.. So don't come out with the same old "uluthu pona" arguments...
Mattaragamana Atkal..

To the nameless idiot
Can you now list the number of moronic good for nothing IR fans who post venom all the forum?
Guess you can't, as they are as many as IR's numerically-great rubbish-so-called-music.
The reason why some of us have become IR bashers is because you idiots cannot be satisfied by just glorifying IR but also have this unstoppable itch to get into all threads and spit venom on anyone besides the IR family. Morons!

For example "kuluvalile" song is probably one of the worst sung song in my living memory. SPB could have done a better job........
- I have heard SPB singing that song in telugu. And i tell you, Udit version was much better than the SPB's telugu version. I am not blaming SPB here.He si great. But there is an important thing that you guys forget. Each song requires a particular kind of singing style which makes it better. I am sure that Kulu Vaalile kind of peppy song was made better by Udit's accentuated tamil and everybody enjoyed it. ARR knew abt it and thats why made him sing. if IR made AB and LM sing a few songs, why did he do it then ? if he had thought abt tamil pronounciation, then he whould not have gone beyond TN borders. It is the singing style and the nature of the song which matters more nowadays.

If IR calls Asha or Lata to sing, its OK???

sridhar,
Sorry, Did I say anywhere that IR calling lata/asha to sing tamil songs was okay on IR's part? He also asked mithali to sing yamunai aatrile for thalabathi. Her tamil rendition was quite perfect. I am aware of that as well. Whether is IR or ARR my comments about singers who can't pronounce tamizh should not sing tamizh songs is unbiazed. I picked on ARR because he is predonminantly using non-tamilians to sing tamil songs, that's all.
laila, good to know that you studied tamizh ilakkanam but sad to know that you are not bothered to see tamizh kolai in TFM.
curses, good attitude my friend.. I too tried to be 'easy' like you but I couldn't.
