[arr] Being Mani Ratnam
There was an interview with Mani Ratnam on the show 'Being:' which was telecast on CNN-IBN and CNBC TV-18 several times last week. In the interview, Mani was asked what he thought of the use of Chaiyya Chaiyya in Inside Man. Mani narrated that, when they had to shoot the introductory sequence of Madhavan in Alai Payuthey, they originally thought of having him listen to a Backstreet Boys song on the walkman and approached the band for the rights. But the band quoted such an astronomical figure that they backed off and ARR composed Endrendrum Punnagai which went on to become a massive hit. When Spike Lee approached MR for the rights of Chaiyya Chaiyya, he apparently quoted a similar astronomical figure back to them but he was pleasantly surprised at his offer being accepted! I live in the world's largest constitutional anarchy. Its called India.

Hi Fans, Excuse me for being off-guru with such a post as this... Can someone try to answer these questions 'coz its bugging me for sometime and I am not able to get a good relevant info on these... 1. What happened to the UOL concert DVDs? Will it EVER get released? 2. Whatever happened to a film called Chamki Chameli? Does someone know about the current status about it? 3.

Hi Ramanand, You are absolutely right, that song was picturised at Chalakudi, Kerala, where in so many songs have been picturised earlier, Mani made it look loke Srilanka.. thats what he does always.. --- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, J Ramanand [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Durba, I may be completely wrong here, but it could just be a set that was put up for the song.

[arr] Zakir Hussain - Rahman one of the best!
The great genius Zakir Hussain - praises another - A.R.Rahman: Who have been the best music composers in Bollywood? If we consider the olden times, I am partial to my father's compositions. But one of my favourite composers has always been Madan Mohan for the Indian kind of film music. I have really liked Pancham da's music. I think it was way beyond it's time. He was a fabulous composer in terms of arrangement of songs they had the melody of Indian origin and orchestration of westernized origin. The kind of music that is happening now in Bollywood was installed many years ago by Pancham. I liked Laxmikant Pyarelal's music very much so I have to say that these three have been my favourite composers. But in today's world, where the music has so globally evolved, I must say that the work of A. R. Rahman comes forth as one of the best. Shankar-Ehsaan- Loy have also done us proud. They have done some fabulous music compositions. I don't know if I like the word Bollywood. It means we are paying homage to Hollywood. Do you think any music composer in Bollywood is overrated? I don't think that a music composer can be said to be overrated. Because we have to realize that what the composer is projecting in the film is the director's idea. Ideally, the composer himself does not get to execute his own thoughts, unless it is someone as able as Rahman, who will present something to the director and the director will say fine. I don't think music composers can be faulted for whatever may go wrong with music because they are just doing what they have been told. Additionally one of the very interesting observations that I am a total believer of: Do you think the quality of Bollywood music is deteriorating by the hour? No I don't think so. I don't know if I like the word Bollywood. It means we are paying homage to Hollywood. We are an industry by ourselves, and the art work that is put out here is unique and one of its kind. So we don't need to relate ourselves with somebody else to be able to get the attention we deserve. The music in this part of the world, I think, is much more intelligent these days. In the olden days you had the classical music of India, and the singers who were classically trained, that is why this one area of music that you worked in and performed in was easy. O.P Nayyar saab recorded three songs in a day because the formula was set the number of instruments, the procedure, and all. All the musicians knew exactly what was to be done. But today, as you pointed out earlier, music draws inspiration from much more than just Indian roots. And to be able to incorporate so many elements from all over the globe in a 3- minute song and to be able to do justice to each one of those elements is a very difficult job. It requires a mind that is able to absorb a multi-layered thought process and balance all the ideas in the right way. That is why I say that today's music is much more intelligent. And I must say that today's musicians and singers are great. They have the range that is unbelievable. They can sing between the lowest octaves to the highest octave and deliver the perfect timber. The tone of each octave is equally balanced and well- projected. Today's singer is a multi-faceted singer. In the olden days when you wanted to do a sad song you had Talat Mehmood; if you wanted to do a happy song you had Rafi saab. But today any singer can do anything. And in that sense the musician today is much more well- informed. Hats off to the composers they are fabulous. Entire interview at: http://www.indiafm.com/features/2007/01/23/2148/ index.html -Ricky

[arr] One of the best songs of modern era - Pachai Nirame?
Pachai Nirame (not Hindi version) continues to reign top as one of my all time favorites and I vote it to be one of the greatest songs in India of the modern era. The instrumentation, singing, feel, aesthetics, soundscapes, just PURE MAGIC. I just listened to it and it coninues to play heavy on my song rotations now for many years. An evergreen powerhouse.

[arr] Is 7digital genuine?
Hey guys, I spent about 3 hours in order to find that site, and I hope it is of help to you guys. But I was just wondering if the site is genuine? Does everything we pay go to whoever it should go to? or is the site illegal and just selling out copies for their profit? I didnt enquire about how genuine this site is, I just posted the site and 3 days later I found out that most of the people in this group bought it from there already. So it will be great if some of you can clear my doubt because I dont want to be a reason for you guys wasting ur money. Have fun guys, the single is rocking!

[arr] Rakeysh Mehra ecstatic about BAFTA nomination
http://www.indiaenews.com/bollywood/20070123/36663.htm Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's 'Rang De Basanti' couldn't make it to the Oscar nominations, but the director is thrilled that his film has been short-listed for the prestigious British Academy Of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) non-English language award. Earlier, Sanjay Leela Bhansali's 'Devdas' had got the honour for 'film not in the English language' category. 'Have you seen the other nominations?' Mehra said excitedly. ' 'Rang De Basanti' shares the list with Mel Gibson's 'Apocalypto' and Pedro Almodovar's 'Volver'. We're in excellent company. I spoke to A.R. Rahman in Toronto. He was thrilled. The entire team is over the moon. In fact, we're putting together a documentary on the film where Rahman says 'Rang De...' has changed his career,' Mehra told IANS. BAFTA held screenings of the film, which has Aamir Khan and Soha Ali Khan playing important roles, in Los Angeles, New York and London. 'I attended those screenings and also the extremely enlightening Q and A sessions after the screenings. We kept talking until 1.30 a.m. In India we'd have gone home. Just goes to show distances are being bridged not just in the corporate world but also in the entertainment business. 'The thing about BAFTA is it's the European counterpart of the Oscars. The Europeans take this award very seriously.' Mehra is sill receiving congratulatory calls. 'People in London, who informed me, said it was a huge honour for Indian cinema. The foreign-film category is hugely competitive. How do I explain the endless run of 'Rang De Basanti'? I think the emotions there are very basic. On Feb 11 Mehra is going to be in London for BAFTA with the entire 'Rang De Basanti' team. But the bifurcation of the best film and best director awards in some of the Indian popular awards, with only one-half going to 'Rang De Basanti', has exasperated Mehra. 'They've 90 categories, somewhere you can see the awards being politicised. Okay, I don't mind if I don't get best director. But how can 'Rang De...' not be awarded for editing or lyrics?? 'The lyrics have given the film a poetic perspective. Popular awards are being given out to balance the picture. If a film is good, embrace it, please. By sheer mathematics, if 'Rang De...' gets maximum nominations, it should equal to best film. I'm not annoyed, only amused.' 'Indian cinema is changing. So should the awards. But RDB is representing India at BAFTA. So I'm not complaining.' On a brighter note, what will Mehra be wearing at BAFTA? 'Anything from my wardrobe, yaar! Are you suggesting a designer? No way. I haven't budgeted for that kind of extravagance.' On Jan 26 'Rang De...' gets re-released in India. 'It's just 25 prints. To watch it again would be fun.' *- By Subhash K. Jha*
[arr] My Favorite Song kanathil Muthamittal
Hai, Though ARR#8217;s all most all songs are spell bounding, for me #8216;Kannathil Muthhamital#8217; title song female version had touched me a lot.

I just cant scribble more about this song its just a 'HAUNTING RHYTHM', to add to this my mom used to listen this song very often( infact her favorite is kannuku mai azahku from puthiyamugam).So Kannathilmuthamital title song will remain, all time favorite for me.

The instrumentation, singing, feel, aesthetics, soundscapes, just PURE MAGIC. I just listened to it and it coninues to play heavy on my song rotations now for many years. An evergreen powerhouse.
