I did not ask you to address him with sir. Rather,I was against addressing him as 'vairamuthu guy'. Ask anyone in this forum or your friends. It's not correct.
Btw, that misspell was not intentional and I did not mean to disrespect JA anyway with that. It will not make it a healthy discussion just because you think it is. And you mail wasn't about music, as you try to justify. And about getting more fame from 110 crores people, I still think, your point is non-sense. He is a poet. Just because another langage is spoken by more number of people, one not necessarily start writing in that language for fame or something. First of all, even the native speakers can't write poems without the love for that language and practice. If this point were wrong, all 110 crores people would have been poets now. Even you. Comparing poets to music directors is not at all correct and asking a writer to learn another language to get more fame is irresponsible. They will do it themselves if they want. Will you ask JA / Gulsar to start writing songs in English (say for U2, Weezer), Spanish or chinese just because it's spoken by more number of people. JA / Gulsar may have written English poems but writing for Pop artist will truly get them more fame. Will you ask them to do that? Does that sound logical? No, right? So let's cut this out and start discussing about music. I don't want to argue with you anymore and this is my last mail in this subject. Have fun!
