   I love the song selection. Sonu nigam is such a great singer, but for some reason i had a feeling that his voice did not match with the guy in that movie. Your voice truly matched one hundered percent. And that gives the song a completion with perfection.

    I often tune into some of the popular FM channels in Bangalore, while on the steering. After spending 12 years in Bangalore, I can tell you that Kannada movie industry has been the worst in South India (and may be one of the worst all over India as well) when it comes to quality themes, acting skills, direction and the overall technology utilization. Most of their directors, movie stars and singers are pathetic.

    However, for the past one and half years or so, a surge of artistes (especially cinemotographers, singers, heroins) from the north and other south Indian states has been happening. And Sonu Nigam, Udit Narayan, Kunal Gunjanwala, Shreya Ghosal etc have produced some awesome songs! But the real reason behind the resurge is a lyricist – actually a poet – who has managed to write all those beautiful songs. His name is Jayanth Kaikini and with his quality lyrics some music directors have started getting better as well.

    Cheers,
    Ajith

    Jess: Thank you!

    Ajith: I have been wondering how come it is mostly the singers from the Hindi film industry who rules the Kannada music industry. Anyways, I see that they have been giving a lot of hits lately.

    Are you sure about this line Jo: “As I don’t know even a little bit of Kannada,”?

    Brilliant performace. All the best

    Yes Kiran. Thank you!

    In fact, I was singing some Kannada songs in the company of my friend’s friends from Bangalore who are Kannadigas. They enjoyed the songs. Music really has no language barrier, don’t you think?
