Gangai Amaran, his brother and composer, has informed the new generation that composer Ilayaraja has said, “I can not apologize for comparing Prime Minister Modi with Ambedkar.”
Various political party leaders have expressed support and opposition to the composer Ilayaraja’s statement comparing Prime Minister Modi with Ambedkar. We spoke to composer Ilayaraja’s brother and composer Gangai Amaran on behalf of the new generation. Speaking then, he said, “I spoke to Ilayaraja about this. Then in my speech, `Should I apologize that the comment I wrote was wrong? I expressed my opinion in the same way as others comment. Despite the criticisms leveled against me for it, I accept it. In my opinion, this is how Modi is in my speech.
I am not praising Modi for wanting to take office. In fact I do not need any such post. I have no party affiliation. Personally I like Modi … that’s all. I set music to many songs. `Some song is good. Some songs are not good. ‘ That’s my opinion. I also accept these criticisms.
I have the freedom to comment. I have said how much I like Modi. They gave me a book and asked me to write a preface. I researched the awesome pantry and wrote down my thoughts. Can you apologize that the comment I wrote for this was wrong? Is there anything wrong with what I wrote? I do not belong to the BJP. I like Modi too; Likes Ambedkar too. So I compared the two and expressed my opinion. In my view Modi is doing what Ambedkar said. Is it wrong that I said that?
If I have spoken wrongly about Modi or Ambedkar, I am ready to respond to criticism, ”Ilayaraja told me.
