yeah... and hope karthik doesnt hv the same stuff as Hariharan... wonderful voice overused. Suddenly we had Hariharan singing almost every other song left,right,down,center and then he comes out rarely with beauties. Good voices shouldnt be overused.

i think its because arr has his own style of bringing up a singer..harish is hj's singer...mostly im saying...so hj has trained him differently....same way arr doesn't take srilekha too....
karthik got introduced by arr.....so its easier for arr to handle...
this is just my opinion....i mite be wrong... :)

Whatever said, Rahman does have an impeccable sense of picking the right people for the right songs. Ok, his selection in AE got him some flak. But it must be admitted.. they did suit the songs in the end! :)
I have just one theory for Harish's absense in Rahman's camp. If u've noticed, almost EVERY singer (excluding the greats like KJY, SPB, Janaki), especially those launched by him, have sung in the chorus, or hummed in the background, or have done some lil alaaps in songs before their first major song. Karthik for that matter, still sings in the chorus for Rahman.
Harish Raghavendra could have been called by Rahman for some tiny bit in a song... and this guy would have huffed the chance away w/ his ego getting in the way!
Just the work of my imagination working over-time!!! Not the truth! Jus a theory! ;)

Why are you all bending your backs to reason out ARR not using HR?
I still feel HR is a very good singer on his own merit and ARR uses some lousy voices who are not only tamil killers but also music. I am not comparing Kartik with HR. IMHO Karthik's voice is no where near SPB or KJY as far as the melody value is concerned. If you compare with SPB'entry in to TFM with the entry of Karthik you would know the big difference. Karthik could not have or will do justice to 'aayiram nilavae vaa' which SPB sang with great imagination and melody winning hearts of every TFM lover. So don't overrate him. HR is no push over. He has sung more memorable numbers than Karthik. HR sings with lot of feeling. His songs in KK were terrific hits. His song in Autograph is also a top hit. Just because he has not sung for ARR you all can't belittle his calibre.
And there is no logical reason for ARR not giving chance to ARR and instead asking lousy singers like Lucky Ali, Sukhwinder Singh & Adnan Sami brutally murder TFM!

as someone said Harish cud have had an overdose of his EGO b4 rahman. anyways harish is a very ordinary singer and as far as i have seen not quick and knowledgable. if u notice even ilayaraja sir jus gave him one song and never ever called him back again. there are very good voices like karthik and tipu not comparable with that of harish. so ARR might not even bother to call him and i guess we shudnt waste time on discussing such a useless topic.

whatever you may say, HR's songa are all hits. It is no fluke. ARR or anybody belittle him. His songs including Autograph are really melodious.
ARR or VS are not justified at all for using UN or Lucky ali who sound pathetic in TFM.
Karthik is over rated and time will tell the truth as to who is going to last long. HH is fading out.ARR does not use him in Hindi. SM though possessing a deep high pitched voice has not been effective in all types of songs. UK has faded out.
Let us see how long Karthik lasts.
