thnx Vithur 2009/3/30 Vithur vith...@gmail.com Today's World Renowned Allah Rakka Rahman is the same Dileep Kumar who couldnt continue with his studies in his Tenth Standard. He has attracted the full world because of his music. A Special Interview with him Q :- Were you able to achieve such heights, because , you converted to Islam ? I* think I could achieve this because of continous hard work, the passion towards music and God's Grace. There are so many people who are behind this succcess and they are * ** *1. Mellisai Mannar M.S. Viswanathan* *2. Isai Gnani Illayaraja * *3. Zakir Hussain* *4. Kunnakudi Vaidyanathan* *5. Ramesh Naidu* ** *These people have already put me in the Ladder. There is no connection between Human success and Change in religion. * 2. What have you learnt in your journey of life ? *All my life, I had spent it between Love and Hatred. All the time, I was fighting between these two. I chose the Path of Love and I am in front of you.* 3. What is the role of your religion in Music ? *I am a Sufi Muslim. Art is important for Society. I am using Music to bring out some good feelings in the same. I dont accept some movies. The Reason is I dont want to spread religion through movies. * 4. What else do you like apart from Music ? *Photography. I have recently bought a new camera. I have to start learning it. I desire to take snaps of my children in different angles and feel happy. * 5. Why did you stop your schooling at Tenth Standard ? *I repented and felt for the same for 10 long years. Then, I stopped feeling about the same. Einstein once said, It is this Education that stops us from learning. Such an Education sometimes halts our Creativity. Thats the reason I believe that its good that I couldnt complete the Formal Education. * 6. How is Rahman at home ? *Apart from composing music, I dont have much time left even to spend it with my children. They get lot of compassion and pamperings from me. But my wife is very strict and they fear her . * 7. Why is there no Information available about your Family Members ? *I lost my freedom after I became famous. Let them atleast enjoy the freedom that they have!!! * 8. You could have spoken about the Problems faced by Sri Lankan Tamils in the Oscars Stage !!! ? *It is the stage to felicitate artists from the entertainment and Art Industry. There is no room for politics there and thats the reason I didnt want to talk about anything else. But, I cant tolerate the pains underwent by them at any instance. * ** 9. What is the happening which made you happy after winning the Oscars ? *Director Danny Boyle had made the children of the Slums of Mumbai to act in the movie Slumdog Millionaire. They got red Carpet welcome in the US. That happening excited me a lot. A lot of other people have also come forward to start helping them. * ** 10. What did you do with all the prizes that you received ? *Whosoever gave me Flower Bouquets, I accepted the same with Love. Whosoever gave me Champaigne' Bottles, I returned the same to them. * ** 11. Can you say one word on Maniratnam and Illayaraja ? *The former is a person who doesnt talk much, but made everyone look at him with awe. The latter captured the hearts of everyone through his music. * 12. Many of your dreams got fulfilled. What else is left out ? *I would like to create a Music Program with World Class Standards. It would be like Sydney Opera House and the participants would be Indians. We , Indians have all the talent in us to exhibit the same.

Someone had previously pointed to ranaji song of the film so I heard only that and that was indeed an amusing political caricature never heard till now in Indian screen. I didn't hear rest of the songs then, but your recommendation made me listen to them and I was instantaneously captivated by its firebrand music, and I felt prompted to hire the DVD and see it. And I was in a treat of a reasonably lovely film for a change. Bringing this thread back to ARR, Anurag Kashyap had written dialogues for Yuva and Water and had written (adopted) the script of Nayak. Now, coming to the music. This is one genre that is missing in ARR's work so far. I just loved the firebrand, motivating lyrics and music that almost runs through the entire film as its basic theme. The nearest ARR had ever come to such kind of music could be in Lagaan's chale chalo. And in spite of that being a different sort of, and lovely song - this exact emotion didn't come up any near in Chale chalo that are flooding Gulal's several songs. ARR is basically of the soft nature, he might not be comfortable to display furious emotions in the true earnest and he might be softening them - it can be called making subtle, still, it dilutes them in a negative sense. Another album of ARR having possibility of this kind of music was Mangal Pandey, but that was a confused film and music didn't show its full impact in that film in any case. And yet another ARR album of ARR where such music could have been was Bhagat Singh, but I have no complains about that because Bhagat Singh was a clear concept depicting the life of the martyr and the times of indian independence struggle, which it did beautifully. They never intended to boil the blood of the viewers, and it is OK because the film was sincerely made. ARR's music also followed that line. Aarambh song of Gulaal would have done ARR proud had that been in any of the above films. Shaher song is also that sort of but more expressive, that is descriptive of the current scenario while Aarambh is more visionary, prophecying sort of. Shaher revokes glimpses of Swades' Yu hi chala chal though the entire flow of both the songs are quite different. Duniya is also having a unique pathos, sadness, craving - without being melodramatic. And Duniya genre of music would have a place in 1947 Earth. Those who have not yet heard Gulaal can still notice that it sounds a poor people's music - he he he - I mean, low budget. Not many instruments, not many effects, not many intervening, multi-track tunes. More effects have beed brought just be inflections of vocals. It is rustic, it is earthly - and that is the beauty of it. ARR's music is having a richness and thoroughness and perfection. I wish ARR to explore Gulaal genre of music. ARR should work with Anurag Kashyap as director. -- V
[arr] The Best Picture winner arrives on DVD!
http://www.411mania.com/movies/dvd_reviews/100120 The DVD Dissection: Slumdog Millionaire Posted by Chad Webb on 03.31.2009 The Best Picture winner arrives on DVD! How does it stack up? Dev Patel/Tanay Chheda/Ayush Mahesh Khedekar: Jamal Malik Anil Kapoor: Prem Kumar Freida Pinto/Tanvi Ganesh Lonkar/Rubina Ali: Latika Irrfan Khan: Police Inspector Madhur Mittal/Ashutosh Lobo Gajiwala/Azharuddin Mohammed Ismail: Salim Saurabh Shukla: Sergeant Srinivas Directed By: Danny Boyle with co-director Loveleen Tandan Written By: Simon Beaufoy Theatrical Release Date: November 12, 2008 DVD Release Date: March 31, 2009 Running Time: 2 hours R for some violence, disturbing images and language. The Film Now that Slumdog Millionaire swept most of the categories it was nominated for at this year’s Oscar ceremony, I was able to watch the film again on DVD, and let my gripes rest. I must be honest. In my news report and my weekly rants on the podcasts, whenever I mentioned this movie, it was all negative. I still feel it was far from the best film of the year, but I did genuinely enjoy myself when I saw it for the first time. I strongly considered decreasing my rating, but no matter how much I disagreed with the amount of statues it took home, the film was indeed well made and thoroughly compelling. The following is my original review. For the majority of moviegoers all over the world, seeing the real India is not common on the big screen. Occasionally a film is released, but rarely does its popularity increase enough to show people what the country is actually like. Slumdog Millionaire reveals India in its true form, the beauty and the ugliness. This is an adventure of the highest caliber, and a pinnacle for Director Danny Boyle. It will agitate a wide range of emotions deep within you to the surface. You will smile, clench your fists, turn your head in fear, and maybe even shed a tear or two. It is a joyously unique take on an electrifying story. As Slumdog Millionaire opens, Jamal Malik (Dev Patel) has already won 10,000,000 rupees on the Indian version of the game show Who Wants to be a Millionaire. We the viewers are even asked a question as one would be as a contestant, but I’ll leave that for you to discover. Jamal grew up as a boy from the slums of Mumbai, and would be on the run most of his life. How could he be answering all these questions correctly when those of higher education had never attained that level? He must be cheating. To prove this, the Police Inspector (Irfan Khan) and his Sergeant interrogate and torture him to dig out the truth. He claims he just knew the answers, and proceeds to express various instances in his life which relate to the questions he received. This journey takes him through many adventures with his brother Salim, numerous villains, and the love of his life Latika. The manner in which Slumdog Millionaire is woven together is what makes the story so enthralling and entertaining. The questions become stories, and the stories act as a tale from childhood to that of a young man still searching for his impossible romance. The plot threads lace around one another in such a glorious and organic way that the suspense becomes maddening, and that is a good thing. The characters we encounter along Jamal’s path to the chair make a lasting impact because of what they mean in terms of the money he is building and the advances in difficulty. You’ll be surprised at how much you remember since this is divided into sections, but those sections uncoil as one fine piece of work. This is a movie that is sure to make strides with luring more viewers into watching a story with subtitles. It has that in common with Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and Pan’s Labyrinth. To be honest, this includes many scenes with the cast exchanging in English, but a huge chunk is communicated in Hindi subtitles, albeit very creative and colorful ones, and this could easily serve as an introductory film for those contemplating that leap into enjoying a full film in a different language. This will attract people of any language because its themes are universal: rags to riches and love. Singling out specific actors in this picture is not easy since the three main characters of Jamal, Latika, and Salim are played by three different performers of varying ages. And everyone possesses chemistry like a unit. If anyone is deserving of individual praise it is Dev Patel, who portrays the older Jamal, and sits in the millionaire’s seat with the face of a kid who has gone through hell and back, yet has never given up on his dreams. The most notable name in the cast is Irfan Khan, who has been developing a solid reputation after supporting roles in such terrific films like The Namesake, The Darjeeling Limited, and A Mighty Heart. Most of this journey is experienced right along with Jamal, but it is important to think from the Inspector’s point of view as

A.R.A.R.Rahman, the music whiz, is highly credited for having such amazing talent in executing music at any given circumstances.

A.R.Rahman is the only known individual who matches the chemistry between the ear drums and his composition.

This is a promising start for A.R.Rahman's tamil musical venture and will be a trademark for his return down south. The Tamil syllables 'Ah Aah is used all over the song, even in some part of the lyrics. The rhythm of the song is sophisticated plus peppy loops woven around it, creates an energetic ambience.

And, that’s not all. We got the singer to tell us more details about the number. “It has turned out to be a great mix,” he adds, “Rahman has come up with great melody.

[arr] Azem Oh Shann Shahensa from Jodha Akbar COpied ??????(IMPortant)
hi all, i am frm Nepal.. 2 weeks ago i was tuning to one of the fm stations in nepal. it was abt top ten hindi movies. In copycat section of the program, they played a song (it was english or wht not sure..think not like english) which sounds like Azem oh Shann Shahensa of Jodha Akbar and told that rahman copied it and. The tune was similar but i think rahman has given his own style of music . that means music was compoletty different. .DO any one know about this . Can u please clear me abt this so that i can take some action to that FM station,, if they are wrong pushpendra, kathmandu,nepal.
[arr] Re: DONT BE A STUPID RAHMANIAC - MY POINT
sorry to say but both of your mails did not make much sense to me. if we would not say ourselves die-hard ARR fans and not share our love for him here, where else we are supposed to do that? after all this is the main objective of having a fan group. and what Dinesh described was certainly not stupid but exciting and heart-warming. There should be a code of conduct which every member must follow. Read thru all archive mails, you will understand how many mails actually are worth a read. Dont many of us skip a lot of the Reply mails for a particlular topic. Unnecessary replies. wow.. this is simply a group to share our views, this is not some assembly or conference or classroom etc. why do we need to be so formal? the only purpose is to share our views on ARR and his music. Donot take music as the only thing in life. but who is doing that? i don't think one would take music as the only thing in his life. If may of you guys are professionals and are just participating in this forum at your leisure, I am glad. But this is for those young fans who have not yet become professionals. well many of fans here, like me too, are ARR's fans since their school times. did it spoil their career? i don't think so. being a music or ARR fan does not mean that people don't do anything else. i am sure fans here are of course serious in their professional lives and successful too. - Jahanzeb --- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, yseri...@... wrote: Hi Fellow Rahman Fans, Let me make things clear first... I am member of this group for about 2 years now. I am a software professional. I read all mails posted in this forum everyday. I even went to that extent that I pulled out all archive mails that were posted before I became a member of this group. I respect his music a lot and am a die hard fan of his music. Just like you guys, I love AR for who he is more than his music. He has taught many of us what are the attributes of a gentleman, which has a very strong influence on the way we behave now. So, why did I write such a mail?? Answer: I wanted my point to go across strongly. I really did not mean Rahmaniacs as STUPID. If so, then I too am on among you guys. I want this group to be one of the finest groups in Yahoo. There should be a take-away or a value-add to oneself after reading these mails. I know most of the good things that we fans do as Rahman's fan, example: Distribution of food to poor by Rahman's fans - I SALUTE U GUYS Sharing new about KM Music School - Teaching poor students music for free - I SALUTE U GUYS - these things kindles humaneness in us Sharing news about what guitar genius told in KM Music School - The points he made were the take aways for us fans.- I SALUTE U GUYS Akash's instrumental tracks - aspiring other fans also to try their hand at music and getting constructive feedbacks from other fans. - I SALUTE U GUYS And many more I want things like this to happen more than not. These are the things which I think adds value to our group. Tell me if you guys disagree. I agree this is the best forum for us fans to express our feelings and be happy, but being a Rahman's fan expects us to display very high standards in our character. We cannot afford to post whatevr we want. There should be a code of conduct which every member must follow. Read thru all archive mails, you will understand how many mails actually are worth a read. Dont many of us skip a lot of the Reply mails for a particlular topic. Unnecessary replies. I point needs to be made. You met Rahman, well its a good news, express it, but why do you tak that topic so much further. And why did I say that talking about music doesn't fill our belly?? Answer: Many of you replied that I was trying to be too smart by making my point. What do I get in return? We are a family, if someone or something goes a little haywire, we as members should take the initiative to explain things to other family members. Thats what I did. My point is still the same. Donot take music as the only thing in life. If may of you guys are professionals and are just participating in this forum at your leisure, I am glad. But this is for those young fans who have not yet become professionals. At this point, I would like to quote about what the Tamil Actor Ajit Kumar told once to his fans: Come to a movie theatre, watch that 2-3 hours movie, enjoy, laugh, cry, dance while you are at the theatre. But once the movie is over, get back to your life. Work hard, educat your kids, take cae of your family and basically fullfil your needs in life. I think he is the only film star that I know who said, he doesn't want fan-clubs. Thats the display of true care that you have on your fans. Its simple but true. I have the same feeling for AR as I think of Ajit Kumar. AR would also think in the same lines. Listen to his music,
