I wonder how Tamil literature world is going to react to this ? Especially Minnal.FM ( Malaysian Tamil Radio ) , Tamil Foundation, Semparuthi and so on?

What’s your comments guys? Puvanan? Poobalan ? Mahendran ( he surely will agree,big time Rahman fan he is ) , Vickneswaran? , Subash?

For myself, I’m OK with it,as long as the pronunciation is good. But with Blaaze,I wonder if that will happen? I think Dr Burn or any other Tamil Rapper with good command of Tamil are better choice then Blaaze. And also hopefully, the music will not “swallow” the Kural.

UPDATE: What will Dr/Maruthuvar Ramadoss do ? Burn effigy of Rahman and Blaaza?
