Hi, I understand your preferance for south indian singers singing songs for South Indian movies. However a few points:
a) A.R.Rahman - hardly needs to be told whom to select. He has proven time and time again that he knows how to choose singers who fit songs so well. b) I personally hate the regionalization when it comes to music. Fortunately ARR thinks global and does not fall into the regionalization trap. Singers should always be chosen based on who suits the song, the on-screen actor, and the moment well. c) Regarding pronounciation, these days its quite popular to have dialect teachers who ensure that the right pronounciation comes across. A better suggestion would be utilize these teachers more often. d) How would one feel if Hariharan didn't sing 'Nahin samne tu' from Taal since he's from South India? Or Sukhwinder didn't sing the Telgu-folk based 'Chinama chilkama' from Meenaxi since he's from North India? Or even Rahman not singing 'Yeh jo des hai tera' from Swades since he is from South India!! The answer is lets not have south India/North India. Its the language of music! We can have a Toronto singer singing 'Mayya mayya' from Guru or relatively unknown singers singing 'Khalbali' from RDB. Lets recognize the music, not the regions!
