It was a dear well wisher of our family who is ardent carnatic rasika and we surprised to hear him say that "I want Sathya to perform 90% film and 10% carnatic songs" for a concert on the 25th May'08. Well this was a request coming from a dear one and i also wanted for a change to brush up my film songs so we were ready for the concert with just 3 more artists namely Prem uncle (Drums Sivamani uncle's brother) on Drums, Suri uncle on Bass Guitar and Rajagopal uncle on the Tabla.
We started off with Vaathapi Ganapathim then played Nagumomu in the middle & Kuria Onrum Illai followed by Bhagyadha Lakshmi to end the concert. rest were all film numbers from ld to the new i.e. from Thoongadhey Thambi Thoongadhey - a MGR starer song to Maduraikku Pogadheydi a latest Vijay Starer. The audience liked the songs selected to perform and were full praise for the Sankarabaranam song Sankara and also the old melodies like Maraindhirundhu parkum marmamenna, Poomalaiyil, Mullaimalar meley, Vasanthamullai, Agaya gangai etc.after the concert we all had a good dinner and more so a great desert treat with lots of ice-cream for us to have.
