Actually the pic is with Panchu sitting next to IR, but I just cut IR's pic and used it for my avatar. During his first recording session - annakili.

is that Ilayaraaja that you have as ur Avatar ? You never know you may become a a poet like him?

few years later he went to the same location and he got the same girl again. The girl was really small and kannadasan gave her money and asked her to leave. once he was on an outdoor location and his assistant got a girl from that town.

Not sure if there is a thread to discuss kannadasan.
