I've been thinking about the GVM-25 concert I am grateful to have been invited to. How should I capture the joy and nostalgia that made me feel so alive? Should I begin by appreciating the intimate stage design (and those cool digitally animated backgrounds), and how the concert, much like his films, felt like an easy extension of his life (including homages to his parents)? Should I talk about how I didn't have to settle even once for 'concert music', as we so often do? So, maybe then, I ought to praise the singers, the background vocalists, the musicians, for doing such a standup job?
Or shall I instead talk about the music and all the memories it invoked? All those great songs may have been created to serve his films, but we know the truth. They served our life. When new love overwhelms you without warning, that low bass murmur at the beginning of 'Karu Karu Vizhigalaal' is already rumbling within you. When you're writhing in its throes, 'Mannippayaa' comes as divine acknowledgement. When you're transforming all the inevitable suffering into art, Alphons Joseph's Aaromale becomes an arm around your shoulder, his voice carrying emotion beyond the scope of words. And it finally feels like someone gets it.
The legacy of this filmmaker's work, and his exquisite taste in music, mean that I could go on and on about the almost-religious impact of his film songs. At one point, 'Ondraa Rendaa' was being performed to footage from the song, and I wondered what it must be like for Suriya and Jyotika (who were in attendance), for whom, a piece of their past has been immortalised to unforgettable music. Some of us may not get that luxury, but it doesn't matter.
These songs are as much ours too, returning as reminders to live and love unapologetically.
@noiseandgrains finally decided to post this 😭
Been searching this 'Aye Sinamika' live version of Karthik's from the AR Rahman - Nenje Ezhu 2016 concert for ages. They finally got the mind to upload it. Just, love it!

@singer_karthik did an absolutely phenomenal job engaging the audience. While the quality of sound and organizing were hilariously despicable issues, Karthik made up for all of it and beyond by giving it absolutely everything. Amazing singer, and extraordinarily entertaining performer.
