Beautiful!! Enjoyed very much.
Meera- Krishna... lines awesome. Very good variations! I have always wanted to request you to sing something proper Carnatic; got a taste of it here- and you sounded real good :) Pl do Carnatic :)
George rocked as always!

GK and Meera,
Awesome job! Meera's Carnatic part was very good with the variations from the original, while the English part sounded a wee bit flat. GK was superb..
Keep it up guys..

I have to agree with Hemant's comment. Akka, your Carnatic part was very good with the variations from the original. It felt like I had been to the temple and returned. Akka, I felt the English portions of the song were a little too flat on your part. George was superb as usual. All in all, much better than the original. Looking forward for a classical song from you in future.

Hello Meera!! I found your voice very expressive. A brilliant attempt by both of you. I really liked the idea of doing the song as a jodi. George is any day better than Leslie Lewis. Meera, your "Krishna" lines were mind-blowing but the English lines sounded flat.
