En Veettu Thottathil (GENTLEMAN) - Cover By NVK with Srividya Kasturi

En Veettu Thottathil (GENTL... Lyrics & Chords

First time singing a cover of another genius of the Indian film music Industry – S P Balasubramaniam.
First time singing with a star singer of Muziboo, Srividya Kasturi .

I am extremely thrilled over these ’first’s

I have sung my partin my own style as imitating SPB’s inimitable style is absolutely impossible for me and I will make a fool of myself in the process, if I tried to do that. Sreevidya’s singing is absolutely awesome in this song as you all will find out.

Last but not least….Thanks Rashmi for sharing the track with me…

Please do listen and give your feedback.

After the initial feedbacks I have made some corrections in the mixing and vocal levels and have re-uploaded.

Movie: Gentleman
Music: A R Rehman
Singers: S P Balasubramaniam and Sujatha
Cover by: N V Krishnan & Srividya Kasturi

Bala (composer/producer) said

Nice try! This song is a little complicated as the tune breaks the words in the lyrics into too many pieces. I see you both tried to hit the right notes for different pieces of those words. But while doing that you have missed the timing here and there.

I was wondering why this song is in “lO-FI” streaming, as you both have a pro account. Overall, its a neat performance. But, I expected more from this powerful combination of vidhya-NVK.

Wonderful cover by both of u :).
NVK ji-Amazing as usual :).You have clearly adapted ur own style,which is very much appreciable :).

Vidya-Love your voice as always.Some of the words lacked clarity.Felt some strain in reaching higher registers.But,nothing has taken away the melody in your voice :).

Also NVK ji’s volume was a bit high compared to that of Vidya’s.

5/5 from me too :).

fantastic cover NVK Sir and SriVidya-sung with very nice expressions and feel through out……enjoyed it.NVK Sir,If I may in the first charanam,it sounds more like Vaipottu chatham ellaam as against Vaipoottu chatham ellam…….
and SriVidya-Slightly more energy required for this song,as you sound more pathos like……But over all a great cover
Regards,
Subbu.

Hi NVK and Srividya, Nice song and enjoyed it. NVK, your voice came out better than Srividya. Nice singing both of you and well presented. Congrats.

What I felt:
- Opening Aalap could could have been more brighter and open … the "aahs’ were a bit closed and not very fluent/confident.
- NVK … for these type of songs you need to come out more I feel but I know you are working with your voice and style but it seemed controlled … something extra would be nice from you … don’t have to play it safe all the time!
- Srividya … your voice lacked both volume and vibrancy for this song. A more bolder performance was called for.
- Mixing could have been better too I felt.

Nevertheless this was a very good cover and another feather in your caps!. Congrats.

Nice attempt. NVK sir, I liked the fact that you did not imitate SPB but tried to sing in your own style. Well sung.

Very good singing you both. It was a very pleasant listening experience.

NVKji, you have sung it in your own style – very good job.
Vidya sounded very good also, a bit controlled at places. Also there is room for improvement in the background humming especially toward the end.

Very nice rendition, NVK sir and Vidya. Such a melodious song – sounds like Nadavindhu in Senchurutti. It is quite staccato in its style so I can see the difficulty in rendering it.

A very good attempt NVK sir and Vidya. The timing doesnt seem to be as issue b’coz i feel tat it actually adds beauty to the song!
Suggestion- Vidya can be more ‘open’ in her singing. this leads to better clarity of words.
The pitching part was flawless for both of u! :)

Dear NVK ji and Vidya,

It was a nice attempt. I just felt that some parts in the charanam were rushed.

NVK ji it is great to see your spirit at this age. It inspires younger singers in mooziboo. Do keep at it, you have great energy and style! :)

Cheers.

Nice work both of you! Brings back fond memories…. Thanks for the song! Krishnan Sir, your vocal when you started seemed to stand out from the music…. but later on it seemed to blend in…. just a minor one…. but thought i’d point out….

Lovely song selection, and nice attempt…pitch was excellent…
But the whole song felt a bit….am not able to find the right word for it….dulled? Maybe the K track wasn’t all that clear and so you had to reduce both your vocals?
Otherwise, the singing part was very melodious…

This is one of my fav songs. Neat rendition – both of you.

Krishnan Sir: “aadikku pinnaale kaveri thaangaadhu” sangathi mod was nice !

Srividya: Madhubala is timid and will be afraid of Arjun and it would have been brough out in this song. You have sung timidly (not sure if it was intentional) but I just thought that similarity !

Anbudan,

Siva
