 Rajinikanth’s dual projects
 ‘Robo’ and ‘Sultan’ are simultaneously progressing. While we all know
 about Rajinikanth’s stamina in south as well as north, his daughter
 Soundarya Rajinikanth, who is making a 3-D animated film ‘Sultan’ that
 features Rajini, has announced that ‘Sultan’ would be released only
 after ‘Robo’ which means in the second half of 2010. ‘Robo’ directed 
 by
 Shankar is most likely in early 2010.Soundarya
 expressed her confidence over the film and said on commercial basis
 ‘Sultan’ will be at par with Rajinikanth’s other films. On technical
 aspect it is getting delayed due to the film being in 3-D animated
 format. There are six sound tracks in ‘Sultan’ composed by none other
 than AR Rahman. Similar to his earlier films there is an introduction
 song on Rajinikanth combined with all his films and the buzz is that SP
 Balasubramaniam is going to lend his voice to this song.

 Raavan to complete with Ash’s dance IndiaGlitz [Tuesday, October 27, 2009]


 So the long-awaited ‘Raavan’ has got the filming schedules wrapped-up after
 a one long month of shooting at Malshej Ghat and other portions. According
 to the sources, Abhishek Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and others were
 shooting at Malshej Ghats and they were scheduled to shoot at Lonvala over
 two days this week.

 But regrettably, the entire crew faced one more troublesome moment at Ghats
 as they moved over to new location. As a matter of fact, the area was
 strongly infested with insects that the unit couldn’t get along comfortably
 with shooting for the schedule.

 Nonetheless, withstanding the hurdles, the crew completed the entire
 project. Now, Manirathnam is all set on with his post production works and
 will complete shooting for a song with Aishwarya Rai in January. Well, it
 precisely gives out an idea that the maverick filmmaker has plans to release
 the film around Feb-March 2009.

 MUMBAI: Music label Saregama India Ltd has acquired music rights of A R 
 Rahman's  latest Hollywood film Couples Retreat for the Indian market. 
 Couples Retreat is Rahman's first international project after his Academy 
 Award winning score of Danny Boyle's Slumdog Millionaire.
 
 Saregama India vice president Atul Churamani confirmed their latest 
 acquisition and said, It's possibly the first Hollywood soundtrack that we 
 have acquired. The fact that it has some fantastic piece of music and 
 instrumentals really makes it stand out, he says.
 
 Churamani agrees that being a soundtrack, the music of Couples Retreat is 
 different to what the Indian listeners are used to, But Rahman's work is 
 transcendental - it's for everyone- not just for the English speaking 
 audience.
 
 The Vince Vaughn starrer romcom Couples Retreat is expected to release in 
 India by January 2010. We plan to release the soundtrack of the film by 
 November – two months before the film hits the theatre, says Churamani. It 
 is also learnt that Rahman is very keen to promote the album in India.
 
 OST Couples Retreat is a mix of operatic instrumentals and some inspiring 
 reggae influenced tracks.  The sound track was first unveiled by Rahman 
 through his official facebook page in October when the film was released 
 internationally. Though the film got mixed reviews from the international 
 audience, the music of the film was largely appreciated.
 
 The international rights for the films soundtrack are with Relativity Music 
 Group, LA.

Rehman casts his spell on city dwellers

It was a rocking and rollicking evening for Hyderabadis on Saturday.

Music maestro A R Rehman gave a scintillating performance - Jai Ho - at
GMR Arena near the Rajiv Gandhi International Airport, the first show in the
city after he won the Oscars.

Thousands of people, young and old, went into a frenzy as Rehman and his
troupe belted out popular numbers from his latest Hindi, Telugu and Tamil
films. The show was a mix of everything for everybody - fusion, Carnatic and
Sufi.

The Mozart of Madras was assisted by 85 renowned artistes including
Sivamani, Blaze, Chitra, Benny Dayal, Javed Ali, Aslam, Rashid Ali, Shweta
Pandit, and Neeti.

The most memorable part of the show was Rehman's tribute to the late Y S
Rajasekhara Reddy. As he sang *Sarfaroshi ki tamanna ab hamare dil me hein*
while playing the piano, there was a pin- drop silence in the audience. He
also made the audience observe a twominute silence for the victims of the
recent floods in the state. The net proceeds of the incredible show were
donated to the Chief Minister's Relief Fund for rehabilitation of flood
victims.

[arr] 'Raavan' Finally Over

2009-10-28 Thread Abdul Manaf Chukkan Parambil
  *'Raavan' Finally Over*
*By MovieTalkies.com, 28 October 2009*
The shooting of the much awaited 'Raavan' being made by Mani Ratnam, is
finally over. After a mammoth shooting schedule, the last of which almost
ran into three months and spanned locations in Kerala, Malshej Ghat and
Lonavala, the ordeal is over. One calls it an ordeal because of the various
obstacles that the director and the film's cast had to face.

During the film's shooting, Mani also suffered a heart attack and was
hospitalised. Also, the film was shot in the dense forests of Kerala where
it was not unusual to come across snakes and other wild animals. The film's
shooting had also been disrupted once when a herd of tuskers attacked the
unit. So yes, it has not been an easy journey for either the director or the
film's unit. With Mani having a reputation for being a perfectionist and a
strong taskmaster, it may have proved to be a tiring shoot for Abhishek
Bachchan and Aishwariya Rai Bachchan, specially the latter. 'Raavan' has
been made in Tamil as well and Ash is acting in both the versions. She shot
for both versions simultaneously. One of the surprise elements in the film
is actor Govinda. He supposedly plays the role of Hanuman in 'Raavan', which
is a contemporary take on Ramayana. Casting Govinda seems to have been a
very un Mani like decision as the actor is known to be very unprofessional
despite being a fine actor. But despite rumours to the contrary, the actor
is believed to have surprised one and all by his professional behaviour and
punctuality. While Abhi and Ash are definitely the protagonists of the
movie, it seems that Govinda may well give them a run for their money with
his performance.

  Diwali – the Hindu Festival of Light……
  My Birthday too…….
 
  NETHERLANDS
 
  My `big dream of the decade' came true…in a most unexpected way.
 
  It was around 4.30 p.m. and I was chatting online with my sister,
 telling her how depressed I was because I was going to miss another chance
 to see my `Hero' – A R Rahman – who would be attending an award ceremony
 350km away in neighbouring Belgium.
 
  While we were chatting, the doorbell rang, making me jump, so I logged
 off and went to see who was at the door – it was my good friend, Dinesh.
 
  Opening the door, he gave me a big hug and greeted me with happy
 birthday and may all your dreams come true! I thanked him but told him that
 I only had one dream and no way was that going to come true! Dinesh asked me
 what I was talking about.
 
  My Guruji is attending an award ceremony in Belgium, I replied. Dinesh
 was a little upset and said, He is not only your Guruji but mine too! I
 apologised to Dinesh and told him that all the tickets for the ceremony had
 been sold the previous week – I have known that since two days before. I
 didn't have a car – or a driving license, for that matter – and if I went by
 train, I would not be able to get back home as the ceremony didn't finish
 until 11.00 p.m. What's more, I did not know anyone in Belgium, so had no
 local support.
 
  Sorry, my `Rahmaniacs' , I didn't tell you what the ceremony was
 about. It was the `World Soundtrack Academy Awards' and was being held in
 the city of Gent.
 
  OK, back to how I could make my big dream come true.
  Dinesh suggested that we call the place where the ceremony was being
 held and ask again about tickets. OK, I said, I'll do it and dialled the
 Awards office number.
  How may I help you? the receptionist asked.
  I told her that I was calling from the Netherlands and asked if there
 were any tickets available for that evening's awards programme. I didn't
 need to tell Dinesh that the receptionist' s reply had been, I am sorry to
 say that all the tickets have been sold – it was obvious from the way I
 looked at him.
 
  I did not hang-up however but told the receptionist, Look, I am A R
 Rahman's craziest fan – I don't care if I don't get to talk with him – just
 to see him would be enough. At what time will the guests be at the entrance?
 Is it possible just to stand there to get a look at him? Please help me
 madam! My home is 350 km away from Gent and it will take me almost 3 hours
 by car to get there. Dinesh could hear all this as I had switched my `phone
 to `speaker-phone' .
 
 
  After a while, the receptionist said, Look, I know how much you guys
 love A R Rahman… let me talk to my colleague. - my face got brighter – The
 show is going to start around

2009-10-28 Thread ichord
Music lovers first, right?

Forgive for this non ARR post, but I just had to share one of my favorite 
American slow songs of the 1980s sung by Lionel Richie called Hello.  It's 
one of the most beautiful slow songs I have ever heard and the melody, video, 
and lyrics combined are extremely touching, albeit a bit on the cheesy side by 
today's standards, but still sincere and touching.  

I also bring this song up because it really also reminds me of ARR's style and 
way of composing a beautiful slow romantic songdelicate, touching, gentle 
instrumentation, sincerity.  The closest I can think of is Shauk Hai from 
Guru.  I bet ARR himself loves this song too.  If he hasn't heard this beauty, 
someone please pass this on to him!!!  This is really a Rahmantic song from the 
West!

Enjoy this - it's a beauty.
