DAY 576 Amitabh Bachchan Blog
The great Ilaiyaraja, pristine in white and just off from Balaji at
Tirupati, conducts me at Prasad Studios for the song from PAA. I did it
once when he was not around. I did it today when he was around. The
world seemed different. The quality improved. The reason for his hand
gestures as he conducted the rhythms poetic and his demeanor and
expressions synonymous with the flow of the notes he had composed in
his private room just behind and beyond the studio.
His eyes wild and bright. His language measured and pointed. His reason behind every note definite and pure and his decision final on the output. The master, the maestro, the magician the ‘little Raja’.
I am struck with emotion. It works its way up the belly through to the chest and heart and waits to explode into the eye lids. And I return back to the Hotel and I believe that I will wait till the morrow for the senses to dissolve before I can go any further …
Good night, my dears ..
I shall return before the morrow is over ..
Amitabh Bachchan
