During the early 90's interviews, he used to play in the interview, it was all great when listening to him playing the instrument, but all just lasts as a snap. Would be a great collection if we can get that. Cheers, Bergin

It is truly amazing how Hesham's voice hits the high registers and a couple of songs he sang were so good that they outshone even the original. i really hope ARR looks at Hesham as he must have been missing a Shahul Hameed voice for a long time. Hesham's Khwaja mere Khwaja and ghazal were so good that ARR will take a note of him. Thanks for mentioning hesham here...

[arr] Economic Times dated 9th February
All - Today's Economic Times had Aamir khan as it's guest editor. There was an interesting discussion on the importance of scripts in movies. One of the participants Abbas Tyrewala (dialogues Munnabhai MBBS) made a very pertinent remark on the dearth of good scriptwriters in the Indian (hindi) movie scene and said just like ARR arrived and gave a different dimension to music and made ppl go back into the theatres and listen to the songs, in the similar way one needed a genius script writer to arrive at the scene (or something like this) Whoever has read it, pls post the discussion. Made for very interesting reading Cheers! Balaji

Hi Guysss February 7, 2008, 3:27:11 PM Director Kathir, who has successful films like Idhayam, Kadhal Desam and Kadhalar Dhinam, is back in Kollywood after a brief hiatus. The director's previous release, Kadhal Virus, was a disaster at the box-office despite A.R. Rahman's melodious tunes. The buzz is that Bharath, who has had a decent outing as a mass hero in Pazhani, will play the male lead. However, sources say that this might be mere speculation as the actor will be teaming up with director Suresh Krishna after his current project Seval with director Hari. Kathir is well-known for his saccharine love stories, enchanting visuals and mellifluous music. In fact, music has been a strong point in all of Kathir's films, right from his debut Idhayam. While Idhayam had music by maestro Ilayaraja, all his following ventures--Uzhavan, Kadhal Desam, Kadhalar Dhinam and Kadhal Virus were composed by `Isai Puyal' A.R. Rahman. It is expected that the Isai Puyal, a good friend of Kathir, will be the composer of the new venture too. One hopes that Kathir will make a successful re-entry and wipe away memories of the Kadhal Virus disaster. ALL HAIL RAHMAN !!!

Re: [arr] CHAT with ARR ....in an hour... at Rediff
i found these: A. R. Rahman says : I read most of your questions� thought I will just pick and choose the ones I felt like answering due to lack of time. I thank you for taking your time for writing all those beautiful kind words. A. R. Rahman says : Name: MAHESH LONDHE Question: I personally feel � 1947 Earth� is your all time best Music. I am not at all against synthesizer or latest techniques but have a strong opinion that Music is nothing but �Feelings� and therefore a song should be recorded in one go without a break as it was practice previously. What is your opinion ? A. R. Rahman says : Thank you very much. I definitely have a lot of freedom when I work with Deepa Mehta, since she doesn�t nitpick into every little thing. She just gives the general idea and disappears till we make beautiful music for her and she responds later. Freedom is very important in the process of creating music and songs. There are a lot of issues when we record music together, because even if one person is not right, then the whole recording becomes unusable. Hence, by the use of multi-tracks, we definitely try to simulate the seamlessness in a song. But the practice is still on. The music of Lord of the Rings, the musical, and Golden Age, which I recorded recently were all with a live orchestra in one of the most prestigious studios in London Name: Aravind AM Question: Sir, In most of your songs, there are very minute and very fine sounds -which may hardly be noticeable to a normal listener, but if we actually notice them, we appreciate the sheer brilliance. What motivates to to make all those fine nuances in your songs, though the efforts that you put in for beautifying the song may not reach the audience? A. R. Rahman says : There is a story of Michelangelo -- if I am not wrong -- which I heard recently. It seems that he was painting beautiful pictures at the back of the church. People told him you are a fool because you are not painting in the front where people can appreciate your work. The answer was: I do my work for God to watch it. I think he can watch it anywhere. I thought it was a brilliant answer because everything doesn�t need to have instant appreciation. Even if one of you have appreciated those fine nuances, that is enough for me. Name: Armstrong S.A Question: Still i feel that quality and sounds of Roja songs are far better than your recent ones. What is the main reason for that? are you missing Sridar and other sound engineers? A. R. Rahman says : At the time of Roja, the consumer music systems used were of lower qualities and we had to cater to a mono-magnetic tape. Hence we had to exaggerate the high frequencies and use a lot of spacializers. Things have changed in the course of time and we are right now taken a universal approach in the sound quality to make our recordings sound warm and friendly to every system. That covers the recording part. The sounds which you say were inspired from the film of Roja� definitely another film soundtrack will come where you will feel the same or maybe better vibe again. Name: Vineet Question: Hi rahamn siri am a fan of u...i am hearing runours that u are coming to dubai for a concert...is it true??..if it is true...is it a public or a private concert?...we are very eager to see u here in dubaithanks A. R. Rahman says : You'll know very soon. Name: Shani George Question: Guruji.., wot is dat one special thing you would like to tell your millions of fans..?? A. R. Rahman says : Love makes the heart more lighter and makes you see things objectively and hate darkens you and makes you heavy at heart and uneasy. Make a choice. God bless. Name: Sathya Question: Hi Rahman, I am a die hard fan of you and i am listening to your music since Roja. I have read in your interviews that you do prayer 5 times a day and also its because you love your job you can avoid burnout. But amid such high pressures how are able to do that. Will you get pressurised anytime by producers to finish fast, which can cause you lose your coolness and creativity. A. R. Rahman says : Like hjow we find time to eat food and sleep, we need to find time for 'spiritual food' too. If we have our mind balanced and light, all other things are easier to handle. Name: Chekka Prakash Question: Why are you not giving music Telugu movies? A. R. Rahman says : I am in the process of doing a Telugu movie directed by S J Suriya, and starring Pavan Kalyan and the music of Jodhaa Akbar will also release in Telugu. Name: S.Somu Question: Sir...dont neglect my request... plzz.give me some work to do..anythingi will travel my life with u sir.i donno more about music.but can do any kind of work... Dont neglect this Al-Risaiah.. A. R. Rahman says : I never intentionally neglect people, but due to overehleming que in my work, it might seem so. I have all of you in my prayers and love you all. Name: Amit Iyer Question: Good Evening Rahmanji. I m your Die Hard Fan
[arr] ARR Concert - CHENNAI - Feb 09th, 2008
Dear Rahmaniacs, Let me take this opportunity to brief all fellow Rahmaniacs, about the Concert in YMCA Grounds in Chennai yesterday night. It was a memorable occassion for we Fans , as we represented ourselves as a group, and were there to shout , whistle around and enjoy his Divine Music in his immediate Presence. List of Singers :- 1. Mohammed Aslam , Chinmayee, Blazeee, Ujjayineee, Benny Dayal, Naresh Iyer, Chitra, Hariharan, Sayanora, Tanvi, Raihana Israth, Dr. Narayanan The concert started at about 7 : 30 Pm, with a Guitar Presentation by Prasanna Keith Peters, along with their group of other instrumentalists. ARR 's programme started at about 8 PM. He started with Jaage Hain, followed by a list of wonderful songs which are as follows :- 1. Khalbali 2. Loose Control 3. Maduraikku Pogadheee 4. Nee Maryln Monroe 5. Kannalane 6. Anjali Anjali 7. Uyire 8. Kaadhal Rojave , Tamizha Tamizha 9. Vaaji Vaaji 10. Sivaji ( Vaada Song ) :- Blaz 11. Azeeem O Shahensha 12. Jashn E Bahaara 13. Sahaana Saaral 14. Dil Se re The songs came out very fine. But there was a lack of noticebale excitement from the crowd, (though we fans were actually shouting and going mad, )which made ARR ask Are you all people sleeping ???. The security arrangements were not planned and excuted properly, and I heard that even the family members of some of the performers were not alllowed for lack of Invitations etc ( Mrs. Keith Peters was not allowed ) It was also very sad to know that ARR wanted to meet a group of Fans, but we were not not allowed near ARR, and ARR himself was forced to enter his Vehicle immediately after the end of the concert. I would request Our dear brother Nazeeef Mohammed to add more of his thoughts on this mail. -- regards, Vithur A.R.RAHMAN - MY BREATH LIFE FORCE

[arr] Chinmayee Blog - CHENNAI concert
http://chinmayisripada.blogspot.com/2008/02/a-r-rahman-live-life-concert.html Happened at YMCA grounds today for an invited audience. Organized by MARG, I was fortunate to be a part of this concert. Hariharan ji, Chitra ji, Blaaze, Sivamani ji, Aslam Naresh Iyer, Tanvi, Rayhana ji and Ishrathi ji, Dr Narayan, Neeti Mohan, Ujjaiyini, Benny Dayal, Sayonara and I were the singers. During the rehearsals yesterday there was this short session where Hari ji, Aslam and Dr Narayan were sitting around and Hari ji was like giving us a mini class on how to execute speed. It was enough to just hear him sing. I had grown up on a staple diet of his Ghazals. I got to sing Kaadhal Rojave, Vaaji and Vennilave with Hari ji, Maduraikku pogadhedee with Benny and Tere Bina. There was an unplugged session with Chitra and Hari ji after which I sang a few lines of Sahana in a scale God knows where I caught from! After the concert, Mom and I happened to get talking to Neeti and when she was saying there are thousands of people out there who are dying to be standing on the same area as Rahman sir, not to mention sing with him. Also, this was Rahman sir's first concert for 2008 and it happened in Chennai. This is also my first major concert for this year, though I did have a couple of corporate shows earlier in January. 2007 started at Bombay at the Nokia New Year's eve concert with Rahman sir, and the year was brilliant. Somehow I attach quite a lot of sentiments as long as Rahman sir's concerts are concerned. I wish I could have sung better, somehow and the depression is going to last a few months at least. These are times that I wish the earth would swallow me up or that I never existed at all. bleargh. There are no photographs because we forgot to take the camera.

[arr] ARR - Lord of the Rings launch
http://rahmanweb.blogspot.com/2008/02/rehman-is-lord-of-rings.html If sources are to be believed, renowned music composer A R Rehman will be going to London for the music launch of a play called Lord of the Rings. Lord of the Rings is a play adapted by the same Oscar award winning film. Rehman has done the entire score of this play. It is also believed that Rehman has approached Universal Music Company to release his album of Lord of the Rings . We spoke to Sunil D'Sa, Managing Director Sales, Universal Music who confirmed the news saying, Yes Rehman is in talks with Universal to release the music of his LOTR album. But nothing has been finalized as yet. However our source informs us that the music launch will be in London and Rehman will be leaving for it in the last week of February. Rehman who composed for Shekhar Kapoor's Elizabeth: The Golden Age , is open to other Hollywood projects as well. He had earlier composed for the Broadway musical Bombay Dreams . His chartbuster composition Chaiyya Chaiyya from Dil Se was used as the end credits for Denzil Washington's film Inside Man .

But every once in a while, he has made an inspired choice that completely transforms a number from good to great. These aren't conventional voices, and wouldn't work for most songs. But you cannot imagine how certain songs would sound if sung by someone else. Here are my top five picks in this category (links attached, in case you wanna lusten to them): 5. *Raasaathi* (*Thiruda Thiruda*): My favourite song in that album. Also, one of the songs that Shahul Hameed is best remembered for, other than *Usilampatti pennkutti* in *Gentleman*. Other than probably a base guitar somewhere in the background (and I'm not even sure about that), this song is *a capella *, with a lot of humming in the background and Shahul's plaintive voice in the lead. (Listen here http://www.dishant.com/album/Thiruda-Thiruda.html ) 4. *Chikubukku chikubukku rayile* (*Gentleman*): Basically, this one makes the grade because of how it reinvents Tamil pronunciation. If someone spoke the language like that in my presence, I would have to physically restrain myself from punching his lights out, but the song… well, I can't imagine any other way to sing it. (Listen herehttp://www.raaga.com/channels/tamil/movie/T053.html ) 3. *Lukka Chhuppi* (*Rang De Basanti*): I love Lata Mangeshkar, okay? My dad's an old Hindi film music buff, so I grew up listening to her. But hearing her sing *Jiya Jale *in *Dil Se* was the musical equivalent of seeing Rajni romance Deepika Padukone. Her voice sounded tired, strained, and clearly much older than the woman being depicted on screen. To me, that song is one of Rehman's eminently forgettable choices. But *Lukka Chhuppi*… who else could have conveyed Waheeda Rehman's heartbreak at losing her son so well? The opening lines are simple enough: *We've played enough hide and seek/Now come out and show yourself*. The tune isn't exactly a sad one either. But the evident ageing of Lata's voice and the tragedy being depicted on screen make it what it is. I don't think there are too many instances where Lata's voice would qualify as unconventional, but my guess is that most music directors would've ended up using a much younger voice here. Rehman chose well, and it made all the difference. (Listen herehttp://www.dishant.com/album/rang-de-basanti.html ) 1. *Vidai kodu engal naade* (*Kannathil Muthamittal*): The scene depicts a village of Sri Lankan Tamils being evacuated before the airforce bombs the place into oblivion. No matter what your politics, the sight a bunch of people leaving the place they had called home for so many years is, you will agree, heart-rending. The lyrics convey a sense of loss that remains with you long after the movie has ended. But what truly elavates the song is the quality of M S Viswanathan' s voice. You don't hear finely modulated sorrow, but something raw and visceral.

[arr] Mughal-era epic - Jodha Akbar
Hopeful Gowarikar has a lot riding on Mughal-era epic http://www.thetimes.co.za/Entertainment/Movies/Article.aspx?id=702041 Published:Feb 10, 2008 -- In this digital age, few challenges are as daunting as making an authentic historical romance that will work its magic at the box office. The last person to try it, Akbar Khan, learnt that to his detriment two years ago with Taj Mahal. The following year JP Dutta's version of Umrao Jaan bit the dust, and in recent times the only title to gain acceptance was the remastered version of K Asif's Mughal-e-Azam, a 1960 original that was re-released in 2004 and took many by surprise. It's worth remembering that Asif needed 10 years to make that career-defining film. So, has Ashutosh Gowarikar, who took just over a year to complete his magnum opus, been over-ambitious or will Friday's release, Jodhaa Akbar, buck the trend? If early indications are anything to go by, the director of Lagaan and Swades has positioned himself to do what no one else has done with any measure of authority for well over three decades — since HS Rawail's 1974 release Laila Majnu — and that is to resuscitate the genre. The lead pair, Hrithik Roshan and Aishwarya Rai, are as good as they get. Gowarikar says he had joked with them that they would only have to pitch up on set, as they were the reincarnation of Akbar and Jodhaa. The fact that they clicked in Dhoom 2 played no part in his decision to cast them. His mind was made up five years ago when scriptwriter Haider Ali broached the subject. Convincing them was a breeze: all he said to Aish was, You'll be my Jodhaa, and she leapt at the chance; as for Hrithik, Gowarikar told him, 16th century, the Mughals and Akbar, and that was that. Besides the dashing lead pair, Gowarikar had other factors in his favour, including AR Rahman's music score. Four choreographers, Raju Khan, Ash Kumar, Chinni Prakash and Rekha Prakash, were enlisted for the dance sequences. The latter pair took 15 days to complete one song, the stunning Azeem O'Shaan Shahenshah, in which 1000 dancers in traditional costumes and wielding swords and shields took part. Add Kiran Deohan's cinematography and Nitin Desai's sets, and the opulence so essential to a period piece is certainly in place. Attention was paid to the tiniest details. Top designer Neeta Lulla said the challenge of designing the costumes was too good to refuse, and specialist jeweller Tanish was appointed to craft specific pieces. The movie focuses on a relationship that supposedly altered the course of history. It delves into the political conspiracies of the period and tells of the alliance between the Mughal emperor Jallaludin Mohammed Akbar and Rajput princess Jodhaa. Gowarikar des- cribes it as a perfect arranged marriage. Akbar's proposal was based not so much on his affection for her but on a desire to expand his empire eastward from Afghanistan to the Bay of Bengal, and south from the Himalayas to the Godhavari River. Love developed later. His strategy to achieve this expansion was to win over the Rajputs, and this marriage with a motive helped him to remove the bitterness and distrust the native Hindus felt towards the invading Mughals, and that, in turn, softened the Mughals' attitude towards them. This led to Akbar establishing deen-e-elahi, or the divine faith, to reconcile the sectarian differences that divided his subjects by suggesting that no single reli- gion had a monopoly on the truth. Jodhaa was not merely a pretty wallflower. A fiery Rajput who was skilled in the art of sword-fighting, she wasn't an easy conquest and she refused to be a political pawn in Akbar's designs to capture her land. Gowarikar enlisted scholars and historians from New Delhi, Aligarh, Lucknow, Agra and Jaipur to scrutinise the script, and while he has acknowledged exercising a measure of creative licence, that did not prevent his detractors from voicing their objections. The Rajput Sabha demanded the right to approve his script, fearing gross distortions. The Sabha contends that Gowarikar is wrong in stating that Jodhaa Bai was the daughter of the ruler of Amer, Bharmal, since historical records show only one Jodhaa Bai, who was the daughter of the ruler of Marwar, Udai Singh, and who was married to Akbar's son, Jahangir. The director hopes he'll get away with it by suggesting that his story is about a chapter that may have been a part of history but was not officially recorded. He maintains there is enough evidence to show that Akbar the Great had a very special attachment to Jodhaa Bai and that the period referred to was when they were between the ages of 18 and 26, and was therefore not documented. There have been other problems for Gowarikar. An animal anti-cruelty organisation has questioned whether he had the necessary permits to shoot scenes with elephants, camels and horses. Shooting at some of India's famous monuments proved another hurdle. India's
[arr] Singer Madhushree 's Interview
Sweetness unlimited Srabanti Chakrabarti http://www.deccanherald.com/Content/Feb102008/enter2008020951340.asp Singer Madhushree on her victory in 'Jhoom India', her music album and Bollywood projects. If the voice of Jhoom India winner Madhushree sounded familiar, you are not mistaken. Because, she is the same singer who has given us hits like Kabhi neem neem (Yuva), Hum hain is pal yaahan (Kisna), Pal pal hain (Swades) and Tum bin bataye (Rang De Basanti). The lady with the golden voice spent some time with *Sunday Herald* and spoke about her tutelage, music and of course, A R Rahman. *Sachin Tyagi (partner in Jhoom India) and you were rocking and way ahead of competition. But what made you participate in Jhoom India? * There are multiple reasons behind my taking up the challenge in Jhoom India. First is the changing scenario of playback singing in Bollywood. Today it is no longer a behind-the-scenes profession— a lot of importance is given to your 'face value'. So, participating in a reality show is almost a natural thing for a singer to do. Then, a number of my fans wanted to see the person behind the voice and Jhoom India gave me a good forum to take care of this request. And last but not the least, this show was completely different from the normal run-of-the-mill reality shows. In Jhoom India, I had to train a celebrity actor to sing. There was a charm and challenge attached to it which I could not refuse! https://www.online.citibank.co.in/portal/citiinforms.jsp?form_id=newnriappformSite=DECCANHERALDCreative=BUILDINGSection=DEHBG180Agency_Code=DDBCampaign_Code=RCAOProduct_Code=RCAeOfferCode=DEHBG180 I want to dedicate this victory to my husband, Ravi Badal without whom I could not have made it. And I must also mention the contribution of my father Amarendranath Bhattacharjee and my guru Dr Amiya Ranjan Banerjee. Without them a career in music would not have been possible. *You had a good partner in Sachin Tyagi. His deep voice and emotional singing did make it easier for your team to move ahead. *To be honest, I did have a hunch that we will go a long way in the show. The first time I heard Sachin sing, I knew that if groomed properly, he can be a fabulous singer. That's what I did. We used to practice a minimum of three hours every day! Kudos to him for his focussed effort and hard work that made all the difference. I think our victory in Jhoom India once again proves that nothing can replace hardwork and dedication. *I think yours was the only pair that did not fight on the stage or do histrionics to get votes! *(Smiles) That is because we used to fight off-screen! To be honest, we never wanted to grab extra attention by having mock fights on screen. But we did have a lot of arguments and differences in opinions during selecting our songs. Every time Sachin would come up with a really tough song and I would say 'no' to it and we used to land up having an argument. To be honest, we wanted to play the game based on just our singing skills and not any histrionics. And both Sachin and I are very happy that our hard work paid off. In fact, you may call it my luck, but I have always won competitions since childhood. Be it India or abroad, I have always been lucky when it comes to competitions! *So, what are your future plans? Any new albums you are working on? *I am extremely busy with a semi-classical album which is due to be published soon. You will hear me singing all traditional thumris in the album. I am quite happy with the way it is shaping up. My husband is arranging the music for the album. *You seem to be singing only for A R Rahman. Everyone knows that you are one of his favourite singers, but any particular reason for not singing with other music directors? *Though it is true that most of my songs are A R Rahman's, but it is wrong to say that I have worked only with him. I have sung for Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy and Rajesh Roshan as well. *Having said that, there is no denying the fact that Rahman knows my style very well and we share a good rapport. * I know that he will call me only if the song suits my voice. My fans and well wishers always say that Rahman makes certain songs for me. I think that is a big compliment! I think other composers will also approach me when they have a good song for me! *What are the new songs you have recorded in the recent past? *In Jodhaa Akbar, I have sung In Lamhon Mein with Sonu Nigam. I have also recorded for Shantanu Moitra in Shayam Benegal's Mahadev with KK. -- regards, Vithur A.R.RAHMAN - MY BREATH LIFE FORCE
