Ranjani is one of my favourites too! Let me see if I am able to get those recordings. If not, I know whom I can get the recordings from ;) Dandilsa, Oh! This 'Oh!' is for both you being a fan of BJ and for listening to Sanjay’s Ganamurte for 5 hrs :P Sathyamurthy, Hmmm Aparna, Watch it soon then. Even though it was a houseful show yesterday, still we never know how long will it be there in theatres. Mahesh,

Sathyamurthy,
Hmmm

Aparna,
Watch it soon then. Even though it was a houseful show yesterday, still we never know how long will it be there in theatres.

Is it the singing style? the voice? the presentation? choice of songs?

I hope this trend does not continue. Percussion has a distinct place in Carnatic Music, it'd be a shame if we were to loose that. Ranjani is simply a beautiful raga! I am still on the wall with ragas like this are taken up for elaboration such as a Pallavi. I think the scope is not there, oh you can sing for a bit, but you end up doing the same sangathis and prayogams. But Ranjani was named Ranjani for a reason!!!! If you get a chance, listen to Flute Ramani's intrepretation of this raga. A simple 5 minute rendetion of Durmargachara will leave you breathless :) Lalgudi's Mohanam / Ranjani dwi-raga pallavi is another classic. I think that is a commercial release. Well worth it.
