He could have easily lived well for another 10 years or more..His loss feels so personal.. Until now..according to me am yet to hear a voice which has such passion,depth, and that powerful! Such a humble human being too..
If only he had inhaled steam three four times the moment he felt restive he would be still cooing breathless to delight of his fans the world over. But when he or his soul reached the gates of heaven, he heard MS AMMA SINGING in rag the krithi " sri entha ru Mahanubavulu andharee kee vandhanamu...." .
There cannot be another SPB for many more decades. Irreplaceable!!!! His Telugu programme Padutha theeyaga every Sunday never missed it. The way he interacts is amazing!!!! Music world would never be the same again. Syamala
I'm a die-hard fan of Balu Gaaru and what I feel is he lives in the hearts of music lovers forever. It is 100% truth that no one replaces him. Sorry to say that actually this " maate raani chinnadani" isn't a breathless song. Balu gaaru himself told that it was kind of gimmick ( just like cut and paste). Watch this video and you will know the reality after the song in Balu Gaari words.
