Thank...Yes Suresh..One of my all time favourites..<br /><br />Thanks for your wishes!I shall try my best.I got this idea because I found that many songs of his are being listed under wrong ragas.<br /><br />Might take some more time to come up with the comprehensive list since I have to check the songs/ragas many times before arriving at a conclusion!!Rajhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03119911558538564131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4485373199416659524.post-22783195933606988222011-07-31T15:20:26.325+05:302011-07-31T15:20:26.325+05:30What a song!!

One thing I still r...What a song!! What a song!!! <br /><br />One thing I still regret is losing the audio cassette of this movie. I think it was combination of this movie and 'Niram Maaratha Pookal'. It was favorite of mine and my wife as well. Somehow we managed to lose it. Not been able to get the tape / CD anywhere till now. But then, in case of many Raja songs, they play in your mind, don't they.<br Suresh Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08775860840384645432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4485373199416659524.post-81129354053662022832011-07-27T10:59:07.504+05:302011-07-27T10:59:07.504+05:30Thanks a lot Kamal :).Thanks a lot Kamal :).Rajhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03119911558538564131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4485373199416659524.post-35146402245727018832011-07-26T13:05:56.634+05:302011-07-26T13:05:56.634+05:30Awesome!

...Wonderful! Very nice to know about your project.<br /><br />Just curious - are you considering the songs in Telugu/Malayalam/Kannada/Hindi well? (excluding dubbed ones). And not to forget, his non-film ventures (instrumental + devotional)?Aakarshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15943886586244410709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4485373199416659524.post-84704811923557606322011-07-26T12:20:11.783+05:302011-07-26T12:20:11.783+05:30Yes Kamal..There are a lot of Pahaadis.
Currently...Yes Kamal..There are a lot of Pahaadis.<br /><br />Currently, I am involved in a project of listing out all ragas used by him (in all his 4000+ compositions!).Since it is a mega project, it might take some more time.Once I publish this, I think we can count his exact no.of compositions in each raga.I am sure Sindhu Bhairavi or Nata Bhairavi will top the list with KiravaNi and Pahaadi coming a Rajhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03119911558538564131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4485373199416659524.post-51550489687683165562011-07-26T11:32:29.737+05:302011-07-26T11:32:29.737+05:30Oh, I thought he composed about 15-20 Pahadis and ...Oh, I thought he composed about 15-20 Pahadis and given his fascination for Maayamalawagowla or Keeravani (in which there are 100s of songs), I felt the number is less.

Comparatively, his Pahaadis are very less but he composed some very nice melodies in this raaga.Aakarshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15943886586244410709noreply@blogger.com
