Hello friends!! I met my inspiration yesterday at the airport :)..It was sheer luck that I got to meet her this time! On 11th Feb, I was going somewhere with my parents and on the way, came a beautiful building.I was just looking at it and on some distance, saw Shreya's poster. Then I was sure that she was performing in Delhi today!!! But it was already 8 by then and entry would have also been a problem! And she tweeted about being in Delhi later. So even if she had not tweeted, I would have met her as I saw the poster..interesting na?
So, I decided to go to the airport next day. I reach there at 7:30..Waited for an hour. This Terminal -3 was soo huge! I was confused from which gate she will enter. But she finally arrived at 8:30.. She waved hands at me. I ran towards her :).. Finally the wait got over...She was very happy with my cocnentration towards spirituality. And the message/autograph she gave me on my diary made me really happy. I will cherish it forever
Shreya tweeted few months ago talking about a thumri she had recorded. The music launch of that album held yesterday in Mumbai. Shreya was present there and also sang few lines leaving me spellbound :)..Music has been composed by Deepak Pandit. The album is titled “Miracle”
I am starting with the newly released Tamil songs of Shreya! They released just today.
The movie is titled “Dhoni”.Music is composed by Ilayaraja.
Hope you guys remember the unforgettable songs of Sri Rama Rajyam in which Shreya sang 4 songs for Ilayaraja!
Shreya has sung two songs..one duet with Naresh Iyer and other is a solo!
1.Vilayatta Padagotty (Solo)
This track is a solo by Shreya. The song has a duration of 4 minutes 47 seconds. It’s a typical Ilayaraja song. The track starts with chorus singing. Shreya has changed her voice according to the need of the song. The instrumentation has been kept very light. Its a slow peaceful song. It seems to be a typical village track sung in Tamil Nadu (just guessing). Both the interludes are superb, especially the second interlude containing violin piece. The antaras are sung by Shreya are amazing as well.. I really wish I could understand Tamil. I would have been able to understand the mood of the song better. To all music lovers, do not miss this track! :)
2. Chinna Kanniley (Duet by Shreya and Naresh Iyer)
The track runs for 4 minutes 40 seconds. Its a duet with Naresh Iyer. As far as I could understand, its a romantic track. The song starts with Shreya singing with light piano piece playing in the background. The instrumentation is superb in this song as well. I really like the way Ilayaraja manages both the voice and instruments. I really liked the way chorus entered into the scene at 0:40 just after Shreya ended her lines. Naresh enters after the first antara and sings the first few lines of second antara but according to me, he has not been able to do justice with the feel Shreya has put into the song.His voice sounded a bit low..no offence
Both are beautiful songs. After a long time, I got to hear those beautiful instrumentation of Ilayaraja with Shreya singing the songs!
Ps: The awards Shreya has won so far in this year has been updated in “Awards in 2012” bar!
