Its difficult to type when you're speechless.. But
how can I not inform
OUR fan club about the greatness of our beloved
Rahman Sir.
I'm just back from a press conference at GRT Grand
days hotel in
Chennai. We went there thinking the winners of the
finals would be
announced. Our band Srishti has lost the semifinals.
We thought we had
been called to cheer the other bands. A buffet
later, we were ushered
into the conference hall. Krish anchored the
proceedings as usual.
We were told Rahman Sir wouldn't be coming as it was
Ramzan Day and
that the verdict was recorded at his studio and
would be played to us.
The three finalists in contention were : Oxygen,
Zinx and V3.
Then they played a video about how it all began and
where it had
reached now, interspersed with Rahman Sir talking
about the show and
the talent that was exhibited. Then there was a
dance performance for
the Ooh La la la song. Then there was the vote of
thanks, thanking
everyone involved. This was followed by another
dance performance by
the same group, to Athiradee.I could judge the
restlessess of the
finalists, waiting for the results! As for our band,
we were just
waiting to pounce on the winning band, and ask them
to treat us.
Then it was time to announce the results! Krish
announced that Rahman
Sir would announce the result played on video.
Rahman Sir spoke. A
brief of what he said : Sir felt all the bands
exceeded his
expectations. Also he said that there were some
aspects that were
expected from bands, which were not exhibited by
some, and some other
aspects which he least expected, but was exhibited
by the bands.
Then came the surprise/shock of the day. Rahman ji
said that he didn't
like judging because it was very difficult. He also
said he couldn't
decide on ONE winner alone. So he had chosen 6
winners!!!
*Silence*
And on expected lines, the three finalists were
announced as the first
three winners (in no particular order).
Then he announced Agam, Madras Tunes and Srishti
(Yes thats us!!!) as
the other 3 winners!
This was the moment of my life! The biggest surprise
ever. Even
thrilling was watching Rahman Sir, the only
inspiration behind any
music we've made. watching the video of our band
perform in the
quarterfinals and comment on our performance. Sir
said he liked our
boldness of expression, and our attitude onstage,
and that there was
Jeevan in our music!
What happened next is just a vague remembrance
now... Hugs, photo
sessions, the trophy and speaking to the media,
thanking Rahman sir, 2
gulab jamoons, a sandwich and an ice cream..a few
phone calls...Back home.
And here I am typing this writeup to the group!!!
Do watch the final episode tomorrow ie SUNDAY , the
14th of October,
on Sun TV at 8.30 PM!
LONG LIVE ARR!!
LONG LIVE HIS MUSIC!!
With warm regards,
R Vijaynarain
(hardcore Rahmaniac!)
