Right from the time we drove to VIT with Mukesh anna to catching up with Benny, Naresh, Naveen S P Charan and Prem G before the concert it was awesome fun. I think more than anything else its the galatta that all of us do backstage and that somehow translates to the performance vibe as well. Venkat Prabhu was also supposed to be a part of it but he fell sick. And it so happened that Charan asked me to co-host the show with him for a wee while until Badava Gopi took over. I never host / present live shows. That's not something I want to do. I have probably refused scores of requests to host.
I was originally supposed to be doing a couple of my songs, considering there were a host of performers. And then I sang along with Benny and of course "Where is the party" is my favourite-est song to perform. That song is so much fun. Must say that the student committee was extremely hospitable and took super care of us. The performances in the college arenas are a different thing altogether. There is a general feeling of positivity I think.
Manicka Vinayagam uncle was also there and I decided to take a dig at the super jewelery he wears. Enough to put any lady to shame. Especially his diamonds. It beyond whoah.
I caught up with Neha Bhasin backstage but only had enough time to take her leave. Was in a hurry to get back home since I had live radio this morning. Naresh was performing after Neha. Couldn't watch that either.
In all, awesome times. Eggs me to work and do a lot more.
And if anyone from VIT is reading this - Thank You!

Always Full of Energy :) :) :
wow, thats cool. I hope you had a good time at my college. I heard from my juniors and profs about the good show by everyone. It was our batch, when we were in final year organized this event for the first time in Jan 2003. My memories go back to those good old days... We started of with a small show and now today I feel so proud to see so many stars attending the show. Glad that you all enjoyed it.
Nice to know that Chinmayi!!!
Hope you had a great time there!!!
Keep rocking and all the best!!!
:) I was at the show and I knew you'd put up a blog post about it.Your compering was good but your rendition of "where's the party" was exceptional!I'd say that was the song of the night..Keep rocking!
Hi Chinmayi,
Nice to know that you had an awesome time in VIT. Keep rocking !!!
Gone are the days to participate in any college cultural fest !!!:( :(......Miss my college dayzzzzzzzz.......anyways lucky VIT!!
Good to know that everyone enjoyed the program.
This is irrelevant to the on going topic, I live in Chicago and I listen to aahaafm, particularly Aahaa Kapi Club. It is very interactive. You are doing a excellent job. For the past two days aahaafm is not online. I miss the program and Chennai.
Chinmayi,
Did you share your experience singing "Aavaram Poo" from the movie "Poo". I couldn't locate it I went back until Sep 08 entries.
Could you please share your experience? I think this is one of your best. When I first heard songs of this movie, I thought it is Ilaiyaraja who scored it. Awesome job by SS Kumaran

Waiting for your review abt Naan Kadavul
Hi there Chinmayi! I'm from Canada, and first heard of your through Super Singer Junior..then I came to an SPB/Chitra concert in Toronto, and you were there too. Now you name is a household name at my place cause we are ardent fans of SuperSpingers. And just by CHANCE I stumbled on your blog through someone else's and I couldn't' believe it!!! You are so simple, and sincere. I have a very good feeling that you are a REALLY NICE person…I hope I am right.
Goodluck with everything you EVER do. You have accomplished a lot, and I am sure you will continue to do so for MANY MANY years to come.
I am in love w/ Tamilnadu by the way! lol
Chinmayi hope you had nice time there...You compere really well....
nicely written....
Good tht u came out of super singer...thats a lot of nonsense going on and on.
nice tht u were nt a part of tht...
I was backstage with Benny Dayal.. And i drove back to chennai with him.. Ur energy was awesome.. Chinama Chilakama n i miss u da wer superb..
I loved the Crackers tht were displayed.. But wat a pollution to the otherwise very cool VIT.. ;)
Anyways The highlight was towards the end wen Naresh n Benny took the crowd by storm.. They just rocked, with yaethi yaethi n Pappu cant dance.. It was mind blowing..
Thanx Chinmayee..
Heyy...chinmaye... glad to note the fun..u have had...coming straight to the point...i am commenting here on your previous post due to the fact that u might not see the comment there since its a little old.
Lesa parakudhu...is awesome !!! i loved it...in the list of your recent songs... also to be released...song tht u sang with naresh for James is good...nanum nadoola.. konjam kahirukken... varudhanu terilla ??

This is not relevant to your blog post, but I would like to know when aahaa fm would be up and running again. I am an ardent listener of your show. The website has been down for a week now. Could you please let us know about the status? (I live outside India, so internet is the only resort to listen to aahaa fm!)
