Most Awaited Idli from UAE..

Harish with son HardikHarish Pai arrives on Radio Idli, from the Middle East.

A strange thing happened last week.  Over and above the din of financial markets crashing around the world, we could hear a strange chanting from across the Arabian sea.  It kept getting stronger and stronger..until we could hear it oh so very clearly.  “makka Idli jaayi…makka Idli jaayi” !! 

Curious to know more, we checked the amchigeleuae yahoo group.  There too, we saw the same “makka Idli jaayi..makka Idli jaayi” !!

And then it hit us. The UAE Amchis were all eagerly waiting to hear their local celebrity singer Harish Pai on Radio Idli!!

Here it is then, a weekend treat for the UAE amchis and indeed, for all of us music lovers!

Originally from mumbai, Harish has been living in Dubai for the past 13 years.  He is currently working for FedEx as Senior credit Controller.  Friendly & soft-spoken, Harish is very popular in the local GSB circle for his amazing singing talent. He was a semi-finalist in Zee TV’s Sa Re Ga Ma Pa World series. 

We thank Harish for sharing this track “kehna hai…” with us.
St(r)eaming hot idlis, served from all the way across the Arabian sea!

  21. Dear All,

    Thank you for all the wonderful and lovely comments. Its an honour and pleasure to feature on Radio Idli and I am really thrilled.

    Wouldn’t have been possible without the ever helpful Aurna, who came up with the idea and introduced me to Nagesh Pai and Sankalp, the brains behind the radio idli. My sincerest thanks to both of them for doing such a great job of encouraging and recognising talents.

    Again thank you to everyone for the support and encouragment. It means a great deal to me.
    You will surely hear more songs from me in the future.

    I would also like to take this opportunity to thank my family for ever appreciating and being supportive.

    “Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.” Therefore always keep in touch with music!!!!!!

    Cheers,Harish Pai
