may be GURU IS THE WEAKEST OF MANI-ARR COMBO .. but no way it was bad or
mediocre..so do SLUMDOG... I kind a enjoyed EK LO EK MUFT .. SLUMDOG AND GURU
are masterpiece in their own standards .. as far as YUVA bieng the weakest of
ARR-MANI combo .. i don't even dare to think that.. YUVA was PRICELESS .. just
like meenaxi .. though they couldn't become a rage at the time of their release
.. don't know why? .. BUT THEY ARE GREAT ALBUMS.. AS FAR AS ARR topping his
music of VTV ... he's used to top his previous efforts and as far as i heard
those 30 sec. audio preview of RAAVAN songs...he already has.. final verdict ..
when the album will release..

in Raavan
i understand if u don't like Slumdog as much as others but bad?....c'mon
man!...O Saya and Latika's theme are masterpieces, Jai Ho is so brilliantly
structured!. ....am sure Raavan/Ravana' s music will be good...but my
expectations are a bit lower since Vinnai Thandi Varuvaya was SO good that i
don't see Rahman topping it for some time....
i think soundtrack wise Yuva/Aayitha Ezhuthu is the weakest of the combo though
it's of course an excellent soundtrack.. ...Guru has "Barso Re" "Jaage Hain"
and "Aye Hairathe"... .an album can't fail with such great songs!
Mani has nothing to prove..sure Guru was just OK by his standards but he has
made many so great movies for such a long period of time that he can be excused
for delivering a relatively weaker one here and there....also. ...before we say
he's out of form...remember that he delivered his second best film (after
Iruvar) with Kannathil Muthamittal in 2003...not too long ago...
