Here is a song composed and sung by me.. Aswin beautifully complimented my composition with his lyrics and Sibu breathed life into it with his very lively orchestration and mixing..

This song is about King Mahabali (Maveli), who taught the importance of unity and thereby re-inforced humanity in people.. May this Onam bring you all joy, prosperity and good health... Happy Onam! :)

Kanmani Poove (Original) - Happy 1st Birthday Shravanti!

Hi Friends…. :)

This is a song I composed after a very long time.. :) Felt really good inside, when I finished composing this one.. Approached Eshwar Ravishankar for the orchestration and he was more than happy to work on this with me! Thanks so much bro!

When my dear friend Rahul Soman heard the tune, he instantly agreed to write the lyrics.. Once this was done, I felt it needed to be sung really well, in order to be able to actually communicate the feel of the song to the listener. Could not think of a better singer than my dear friend Unnikrishnan KB... He has rended this one really well!!

Ninavil Thedumaare... My Original Composition

Hi Friends! :)

This is a very special Krithi written and composed by the great Sri Annamacharya… This song is all about life… It speaks about life being a drama and we being the actors on the scene. But whatever we say or do in life, at the end of it all, time reminds us of the ultimate goal, liberation to reach god… Such a wonderful concept, written by the messenger of God himself, Sri Annamacharya.

This song has been composed in one of my favorite raagams, Revathi… Such a beautiful raagam this. To add more life to the already beautiful song, Guru has done a Brillaint job with his background score. To top it all, superb mixing by our very own Babuettan at his Studio Mysterious Sounds Digital

Hope you all like this. Please feel free to share your feedback and thoughts on our humble attempt.

Minungum Minnaminunge - Acoustic Cover feat. Venkat Kumar

Hi Friends!

This is a song which I composed 2 years back. This is one of my personal favorites amongst the songs I have composed. 

The most interesting aspect about this song is the manner in which the lyrics was written. It all happened over a small conversation between me and Rahul. The lyrics of this song were written in a matter of 15 minutes by Rahul amidst the usual chit chat with me. What amazes me is the thought of how could somebody write something as good as this amidst all the distraction from the person sitting beside you! And believe it or not the lyrics was perfect to the meter of the composition! Hats off to this guy! Thanks so much bro! :)

Then came Eshwar, who changed the face of the song with his beautiful background score! Loved it man! Owe you one too! :)

It was a wonderful experience working with Urmila Varma on this song. She is such a fabulous singer and I feel privileged to have been able to have part of this song. Thank you so much chechi! Means a world to all of us!

Now coming to the singing, it was a touch choice as to who would sing this one. That was when we thought of requesting Vinod Venugopal to sing this one for us. For all you folks who do not know Vinodettan, he is the brother of renowned playback singer Sujatha. It was indeed a pleasure to have got a chance to work with Vinodettan. He has done a fantastic job in this one! Am sure you would all agree with me. 

A special thanks to our dear friend Deepesh, for all the moral support and for the help with the mix.. Owe you one too bro.. :)

So here you go, presenting before you the song which I have been longing to release... Sandhyathan... Hope you all would like it..

This song communicates what I felt when I first held my daughter in my arms when she was born. The journey in these 4 years as a Father has been an experience and one of great learning. 

Here is a small dedication from me to my child and I hope she loves it.
