I don't think that guy said Chitra is an ordinary singer, he said she has sung ordinary songs with other composers. There are a few Rahman songs of hers that I love but that apart, yes, at least nothing up to the standard of this song or Naan Enbadhu or so many other songs. Not just Chitra, listen to SPB in the MSV days and then with Raja. He gave both these incredible singers the best songs to actualize their potential.
National Awards..?? and Just 6??? This should be VERY less for someone like this magical lady CHITRA...!!! I bet that no music lover in this world would ever deny that Chitra is one of the BEST singers India has ever or will be produced!!!!
that Ilayaraja Sir lastly given a 30 year long due (National recognition) - Padma Bhushan by Govt of India.
But still Govt of India is like sleeping until Honouring Ilayaraja Sir - Bharat Ratna in years to come to put him in list below :-
M. S. Subbulakshmi
Lata Mangeshkar
Bismillah Khan
Bhimsen Joshi
Truely this Indian film composer, singer, lyricist and the first Asian composer to score a symphony with over 4,500 songs and 900 film BGM scores -- deserve it.
You could hardly hear the strings which is so important. The mic is rubbish. This is apparently why IR hates doing live concerts. He is never impressed by the sound system. Would be different if he too used preprogrammed loops like the other so called 'live' concerts.
@asdaash I agree that mics used in Indian venues generally are not very good but on the other hand you could hear the string sections clearly in the TV telecast. Lot of sound quality seems to have been lost in compression in these uploads. Oh, and the spectacle of carefully co ordinated string and choir sections in the intro of Sundari was simply mesmerising and breathtaking. Raja raja thaan!
Someone seems to have heard very little of Chithra. Regardless of the MD, she gives her best always. She has sung some extraordinary songs for other MDs. She has made some ordinary songs sound great. We see that some waste comments will always be made and they can't make 'sense', but the other good compliments and constructive comments make up for it.
we think that some voices are waste and they cannot sing, but if they are trained with ilayaraja, they can make wonders. say for example chitra itself, she sings all ordinary and some stupid songs with other music directors, but with raja, she sings so well. credit always goes to the music director. hats off ilayaraja.
chitra!! an ordinary singer??!! listen to her malayalam songs and you would never say that!! her voice is still so fresh and young unlike a lot of contemporaries!!
she didnt receive all her national awards just singing for Raja.I greatly admire raja sir and he is my most favourite MD. But the way you rated chitra was too bad. Listen to other songs she sung for some other directors. Especially if you are a tamilian, listen the songs for MD raveendran in malayalam. Other singers struggle to sing his songs while chitra sings it easily. she is the favourite of many music directors.never under rate a person like chitra.
have your facts right, dude !! May be u love raja a lot, that doesnt make people who sing for him any ordinary .. chitra is as great as (if not better) any great singer that our country has produced.
