Inside the mp3, you will find

St.Tyagaraja's Kirtana in Raga Jayanthashri,  beats and rhythm games,

Bass guitar and chords sections,

Melodious flute along with piano, pads, synth leads, mridangam, tabla…

and enough of heartfelt gibberish. Excuse the hindi lyrics – i don't know what it means. Marugelara Oh Raghava means "Why are you hiding, Raghava (God)" in Telugu.

    Monk (ey)!!

    Loved the background score. very nice, but i feel you could have done better with the actual singing, it distorts the song at times, just did not get the feel as compared to your first composition. Liked the singing in that a lot better than this

    Must say mate, you are awesome, Continue making us proud. I will recommend as wide as possible in my circle of friends

    Hello my dear Sayed, thank you for taking time to listen and leave this feedback. Definitely there are enough things that can be made better with the song. Just that i did not want to wait once the song was good ‘enough’. We can do a better produced version some time in the future. Thanks again :)
