Hi guys - After going through the plethora of postings of last month, I couldnt help but think that more than anyone else, we as the so called die hard fans of ARR are possibly his biggest detractors. And why do I say so? Read on...
1) If ARR composes a "massy" kind of music, we immediately slaughter it saying...the music is too Pritam-ish or Himesh-ish or even VS-ish and not befitting ARR 2) If ARR composes a very classy kind of music, the other set of yahoo group members start berating him saying, it is too classy to be appreciated. 3) If ARR composes very good music for a flop film, we say he shouldnt be composing for new directors but only established ones...if he composes for established directors, we say he should be more open to working with new directors! 4) If ARR uses established singers like Alka Yagnik, we say he should be using the new talent. And if he uses new talent, we immediately start feeling concerned that the likes of Hariharan, Udit N, Sonu N are being ignored! 5) If ARR doesnt win an award, we rip the judges apart. If he wins the award, we immediately say he should have won the award for some other movie and not the current one which is way below his standards!! 6) Till the teaser trailers of an ARR release comes, we keep talking about the album. Once the trailers come, we start moaning the music (that too even without hearing the full song on good acoustics) saying it is crap and not ARR standard. And then what do we do? Immediately start talking of his next release!! Comeon guys...what should the poor guy do? Should he stop composing? Cheers, Balaji
