@tapey 'The problem is that there really are no strong directors in Tamil > > > cinema of the current generation'
thats not true..... well i love ashutosh movies and ROM's movie(have not watched aks!!!).... as well...so i have no bias in terms of language....there are a lot of directors say gautam menon (see kaakha kaakha ... no run of mill there...)...vishnuvardhan(i like his style...)...... ameer (paruthiveeran.....same ol story???)....venkat prabhu(chennai 60028 was outright hilarious...)...the director of mozhi ...lot more ppl like balaji sakthivel... these ppl might have their own choice of music dirs....m not asking ARR to break their relationship...and work with them....m just telling the movies he works for shd have content esp in tamil.....i just hope sakkarakatti has it and proves me wrong!!!! 'So how, in this climate, is ARR > > > supposed to be inspired to create something brilliant?' this means he is not doing brilliant music???? i never had an issue with the music.....the music has always been gr8 in all the movies i have cited....its just the movies were...well its a perspective...... --- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, "Prashanth Murali Nottath" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I think it's more owing to lack of time, than any other care.
