2011 started with the rocking entry of the “TOP 20” in super singer 3 sets! It was an awesome experience contesting in “SUPER SINGER 3”. I still remember the first round was Yuvan Hits Round and guess what? ;) I was the first contestant to get the Rs.50,000 cash prize and that too from Yuvan, so undoubtedly it was an awesome start. :) 2011 has been a brilliant brilliant year for me, I totally feel this year has been a turning point in my career, getting the 1st runner in super singer 3 was like a dream come true. :) More than anything else so much “LOVE FROM THE PPL” was never expected because in the web forums I always had a “BAD BOY” image, so “THANKS A MILLION” to all the ppl from the bottom of my heart for all the love, support and encouragement u guys have been giving me! :) “SPECIAL THANKS” to the critics as well, u guys have made me work harder and become a better singer, I always try to satisfy u guys, someday I definitely will :)
After “SUPER SINGER 3” there has been no looking back *touch wood* :) Got to sing a few songs for leading music composers like D.Imman, Vijay Antony, G.V.Prakash and some new composers too. Moreover got an opportunity to sing chorus for “THE ONE AND ONLY A.R.RAHMAN” and it was like a dream realized. :) Any singer on earth would dream to sing for him, so singing chorus for him has made me work even more harder and I hope someday I will b blessed with a solo or a duet. :) *fingers crossed* :)
Have learnt so much in the course of time from all these composers and a million thanks to them who really encouraged me and above all to have had faith in me and my talent. This can never be forgotten, m indebted to all these brilliant ppl. Am just eagerly waiting for the release of these songs and hope u guys will like it! :)
My new year ended off with style, I spoke to “SHANKAR MAHADEVAN”, my god, my idol and I cant ask for more. I felt so blessed to have spoke to him and he was very very sweet to me, I got to learn from him how to speak to a fan or somebody who admires my work! Such an “INSPIRATION” he is. Thanks to Srini sir for making this conversation happen, love u loads sir! :)
Feeling really sad that my lucky 2011 is getting over but hope 2012 and the coming years will be really lucky for all of us. Hope to sing plenty of songs for u guys and entertain u all with whatever I know! :) All I want is the love, support and encouragement that u guys have been giving me and I promise u guys that I will never disappoint u! :)
So here’s me wishing u all a “ROCKING 2012” :) No matter what we go through in life just smile at it and move on, let’s spread peace and positivity all over and I wish and pray the almighty to give us all strength and a disaster free 2012!
Lotsa love,
