Too good for a maiden venture… Diction issues – no idea… Construe that you have succeeded, if your singing has struck a chord of happiness even in a single listener… This was a rich blend of everything… Keep covering hindi songs… What will make us perfect if not these trial and error attempts?? Great work, brother!!! Good Luck with your upcoming hindi covers…
Thanks,

Very well sung Devan, with good feel. Don’t worry about diction, it will improve with your singing. Brought memories of the nice film ‘Chitchor’, of Amol Palekar…. This is one of my fav Hindi songs of Dasettan. Congrats for the superb rendition!

Harish said

Devan, that’s an excellent effort! Beautiful! Don’t worry about diction, do try and get the pronunciation right, though sometimes there is a thin line separating the two.

I hope you will not stop singing Hindi songs cos of diction. I have two suggestions. Focus on your strengths and sing with your heart. After the recording, send to a friend and do a diction-check. You can then correct any critical errors that might have popped up.

Do scribble me on your next Hindi upload.

Devan ….I have sung this for the school competition in 8th standard. Very good rendition by all standards…even Dasettan had diction issues in hindi…so dont worry:) The only word which stood out for me …nahi…it has the malayalam accent….overall great pitching and expressions….loved it.

Hi Devan…

It’s been too many days before hearing a cover of u………

Beautiful dear !!!

You have done a brilliant job. Of course , this is a very popular one & very close to all malayalees too. Problems related to diction & slips are quite understandable yaar. Dont worry about those things…….Your amazing voice quality covers all those……….

And about Babji & Saroj chechi , they are my masters too……Really very very helpful in sorting out any problems that are put in front of them………About mixing , nothing i have to say. Coz , he is a well known & amazing personality in that field….We cannot do much on that ! he he he………Babji & Saoro chechi , we are really thankful to u people for helping this wonder ful singer

All the very best…….

wow….Devan, very well sung with lovely expressions, if this is your 1st ever Hindi attempt then you must continue, really enjoyed listening this in your soothing voice :)

Ramesh Tadi (listening mode...) said

Devan, just want to tell you one think before you even think about D in the word Diction… I know u were listening to my Hindi songs and i am a stranger to Hindi like you but see how shamelessly i keep singing Hindi songs though they are all filled and stocked up with DICTION errors… its only because i love to sing… who cares abt other stuff when you and ur dear one’s enjoy your singing

And with such a terrific VOCAL you have… i repeat such an awesome terrific Vocals you have… dont even in dreams fear to attempt what you like… i can say that you did 9999999% much better than me, if i tried this same song….

Fantastic rendition and vocals as always…

Keep uploading more Hindi cover buddy… Great mixing by Babu anna and great support from Saroj ji… loved it

Devan,
Your voice is really wonderful in this :)
Loved your singing too !

Rajeev Onv(away on a long break) said

Devan, good choice for you. There is a strong malayalam flavor in your diction-you should listen to and sing more of non-yesudas songs to improve. Enjoyed your singing all the way-Congrats!

Vidhya k said

Congrats, Devan. You dont sound that you are not comfortable with this langauage. Anyways, your singing style, with your voice modulations and feelings is awesome. You need not ‘know’ the language to sing in one. Lata Mangeshkar has sung in around 20 languages. Do you think she knows all the languages? When you can take guidance from the original song for diction, then, ‘darne ki kyaa baat hai?’ Go ahead. Post more, not only in Hindi, but any other language that you fancy :). Learn ‘NOT to HATE’ aaany language :) BEST OF LUCK!

Sudha Kumar said

Congrats from me too, Devan. You had us swaying and tapping our feet to your lilting mellifluous rendition of this peppy KJY melody, and that counts most. Improvement pointers have been covered perfectly by our trusty and experienced friends, so you can polish on diction and murkhis as you sing more and more…
Amen to what u said as well, Vidya! :-)
To favs,
Sudha

Kavitha kondapalli said

Hello Devan…! First time on your page… The comments history had already cleared your diction doubts…. For me, U were very very good in that part. I m sure your coming upload would be a Hindi Cover again :)

This was a very good song pick and in-spite of carrying diction worries in your mind, you no where missed the essence of the song… That is really appreciated. Excellent rendition. Babu anna’s mixing and Saroj ji’s support added color to this effort….! KUDOS :)
_{~MUSIC IS WHAT FEELINGS SOUND LIKE}~

Wish you all the best!!!

Chandrasekharan Nair(always with music) said

Hi Devan. You are singing so beautifully. You have a very good voice and rendering the song like the original. My request to you. Please try to record our old Malayalam Classics also of Dasettan and jayettan. Because for a good talended singer we have something to do in that songs than when singing new songs. Keep it up.
Be always with a music mind to be a good person.

Bijayashree ( listening & enjoying all your tracks) Samal said

Hi Devan
I am listening you for the first time. Though you have written your doubts about your Hindi pronunciation. But I really love it the ways it is. No such diction issues. I love your vocals. Very well sung.
