I could not understand your second apology. Please pardon me and apologize clearly.

@Vikram,

Absolutely right. Rahman used the road laid by Ilayaraja as the take off runway for taking Indian music to rest of the world.

You are right. This period is an apology period. My apologies:

Mr. Rahman,

I under estimated you first (Roja, Pudhiya Mugam times) that you are another Adityan or Deva. But you kept coming back to me all these years with more and more superlative compositions.

Later I got transformed to a better state where I thought you are second to Ilayaraja which only later I felt that the comparison itself is not correct. You and Ilayaraja are in two different paths.

This is my first apology.

Mr. Rahman,

Though you have taken the tamil music/indian music to the greatest levels and almost everyday I listen to one of your mesmerizing songs, being an ardent fan of Raja I cannot see you at the level where I have kept Ilayaraja. I hope this will be the case even for the generation before mine (MSV and Ilayaraja).

This is my Second Apology.

Welcome to my blog.

I would be happy to join the rich and famous by apologizing but I only need the exact demand. You made me count 1 to 13 many times over but I apologize I could not comprehend which exact para you referred.

I beg your pardon, if you can be specific.

However, it has merits. Thank you.

Please re-read your para 13. You may consider tendering your own apology.
