Wondering if Raja sir still longs for that recognition that he can accomplish composing a bgm or song very fast..

rajaramsgi,
No need to wonder after reading the dinamalar news.
Our Ilayaraja did not challenge or gloat!
He was telling the marvelous & difficult work he has done in the film Priya, & how talented his local musicians were to play that piece!
I saw the speech video in Facebook yesterday.
Check it out. Vinatha

Thanks ya. this video explains his words in a much better context. Raja sir is very humorous and spontaneous in this clip. We are all looking forward to the concert.. another 10 days to go, can't wait. This is the 3rd time I am going to see him in my life.

This time its nice to watch him challenging all world music composers / conductors to reproduce the 10th reel BGM score with a proper sync. I just watched that particular 10 minutes part from youtube full movie version of Priya. Excellent!

P.C.Sriram confirms that Raja Sir scores music for Balki's next movie staring Amitabh and Sharuk khan. ( in this week's Anandha vikadan).

This is his answer for a question about why he is not working often in Hindi movies.

அப்பப்போ லீவு போட்டுட்டு படத்துக்கு ஸ்க்ரிப்ட் எழுத உட்காந்துடுவார். 'சீனிகம்’ படத்தின் முதிர்ந்த காதல், 'பா’ படத்தில் அப்பாவை பையனா நடிக்கவெச்சு, பையனை அப்பாவா நடிக்க வைக்கிறதுன்னு பால்கி யோசிக்கிற கதை எல்லாமே பயங்கர சவால் ப்ளஸ் சுவாரஸ்யமா இருக்கும். அவர் அடுத்து அமிதாப், ஷாரூக் கான் ரெண்டு பேரையும் வெச்சு ஒரு படம் இயக்கப்போறார். நான்தான் அந்தப் படத்துக்கு கேமரா மேன். இசை, நம்ம இளையராஜா. 'ஷாரூக் இதுவரை பண்ணாத கேரக்டர். இந்திய சினிமாவுக்கே புது கேரக்டர். சீக்கிரம் ஸ்க்ரிப்ட் அனுப்புறேன். தயார் ஆகிக்கோங்க’னு சொல்லியிருக்கார். ஆர்வமா இருக்கேன்!''
