Music is personal, so are raagams as are the Indian Deities. For me, i don’t enjoy Mohanam at all. It screeches in my brain, and sends me into ‘get me out of here’ state of mind. It is like a teacher having a bad day. One of my favourite is Reetigowlai and yet a friend of mine cannot stand the combination of notes. Oh hello!! Reetigowlai is a divine raagam.
Krishnaveni,
Welcome to my blog! That’s true. In my case, it’s not a case of not enjoying. It’s just that I get to hear TMK sing Todi so often that I want to listen to some other raaga. In fact, the moment I get past my initial grumbling, I started enjoying it.
Btw, I can’t believe that somebody can’t stand stand Reetigowlai!!
Its a beautiful Raga – Thodi 🙂 But I guess it happens with everyone-Kalyani and Mohanam for me 🙂

Sathej,
Of course it is a beautiful raagam
