Re: [arr] Blue Telugu
dear gopal thanx 4 ur msg. My point is this Arr's Music should reach all his music lovers in a proper way that any one affordable to get Legally. otherwise it may mislead to a one to own a pirated copy. i could demonstrate one example: -- Blue -Telugu Digital download is $6.23. so due to today's currency rate its cost me 712.525 LKR. keep in mind this is not even a full quality release (mp3). If same available in Audio CD its only cost me 600.00 LKR also keep in mind that is a Full Quality Audio (not mp3). so what this speaks? will I be motivated to buy an Digital ver. obviously not. == that is all about it.. --- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, Gopal Srinivasan catchg...@... wrote: I didn't quite get how you plan to threaten AR's privacy but the rest of the logic does not hold - not being able to afford/access a commercial product does not bestow the license to steal. But that's quite beside the point. It's not like any of us don't download the music anyway - it's just a business decision that the producers are making - the cost of producing and distributing a CD revenues from selling them The pirated mp3s will get downloaded regardless, just that in this scenario, the producers lose less money.

Dinesh, who recently received an award at the SIGNIS (OCIC) awards ceremony as best music director for the teledrama ‘Siri Sirimal’ directed by Sunil Costa, explained that while studying at the academy he continues his commercial work as a full time musician. “We work and study from 8 a.m – 8 p.m at the academy. It is only after 9 in the night, that we do all our other work,” he explained. Dinesh is the first Sri Lankan member invited to join the South Indian Cine Musicians Union, and remains humbled by this accomplishment.

Dinesh remains modest about his many achievements,insisting that none of it would be possible if not for the encouragement and assistance received from numerous people who supported him in his endeavours. Six months into his musical education in India at the popular K. M. Music Conservatory in Chennai, Dinesh has no qualms about following his passion and doing what he loves.

[arr] Radio Mirchi's Top songs of 2009
Chor Bazaari top song of 2009TNN 4 January 2010, 12:00am IST Text Size: |a href=http://netspiderads2.indiatimes.com/ads.dll/clickthrough?slotid=36257; target=_blankimg src=http://netspiderads2.indiatimes.com/ads.dll/photoserv?slotid=36257; border=0 width=670 height=50 alt=Advertisement/a It’s been a great year for music! Capping the year at pole position on the Radio Mirchi Top 100 Year End Special,is the top song of 2009 Chor Bazaari from Love Aaj Kal — which spent a whopping 25 weeks on the Mirchi Top 20. At a close second, having spent a healthy 34 weeks on the chart, is the inimitable Masakalli from the box office turkey that was Delhi 6, proof that a good tune can stand on its own feet if it connects with the public. SRK’s Haule Haule from Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, which spent 40 weeks on the chart, is a justified No. 3. While the shout-along anthem of 2009, Jai Ho from Slumdog Millionaire, makes it to the No. 4 spot with 40 weeks too on the chart; and Dhan Te Nan from Kaminey, which created a buzz and sustained a 24-week run, ends up at No. 5. For more on this hot list, turn to our music page. Going by the Mirchi Top 20 every week over 2009, it really seems that Delhi 6 was the most popular film with about six entries on the charts. Moreover, it also seems like a good melody has been the common thread running through the songs last year, and it looks like the same will happen this year too. Importantly, the Mirchi countdown is one of the oldest and most respected music charts in the country and is seen as the gold standard for the industry. This countdown represents the musical tastes of the entire country, not just of a single radio channel. Hitmaker Pritam, excited by his lead position on the Radio Mirchi Top 100 Year End Special, said, “The year was exceptionally good for me, my songs from Love Aaj Kal, Tum Mile, Ajab Prem.. and Billu were all loved by listeners. Apart from Chor Bazaari, the Mirchi Top 100 features many of my other songs. It is one of the oldest, most authentic and looked forward to countdowns on radio.” Love Aaj Kal’s director Imtiaz Ali, added, “It’s fantastic to know that Chor Bazaari is the No. 1 song.. You don’t know the popularity of your song until something like this happens.” Known for his nuanced lyrics, Prasoon Joshi, whose Masakalli weighed in at No. 2, remarked, “This is proof of the immense popularity of melodious songs as Radio Mirchi reaches out to the maximum number of listeners all over India.” Sukhwinder Singh (whose Jai Ho has two Grammy nominations) has three songs on the Mirchi Top 100 and said, “Haule Haule is by far the most romantic song I have sung. Jai Ho, too, was very special, it was all about celebration. A.R. Rehman and I have made a winning combination right from our Chaiyya Chaiyya days. But I never expected Dhan Te Nan to become the kind of hit that it did.” Bollywood Badshah Shah Rukh Khan is also all praise for this track. “Dhan Te Nan is fit to be a part of the Top 5 songs in the Mirchi Top 100. It took the nation by storm and what a cult song it turned out to be,” he said. The actor’s best buddy Karan Johar said he was “thrilled that songs from Wake Up Sid and Kurbaan are a part of the Mirchi Top 100 countdown. “Shankar Ehsaan Loy have made super music this year,” said the filmmaker. And let’s not forget the upcoming Amit Trivedi who won critical and commercial acclaim for the songs of Dev D and Iktara and his ‘alternative’ sound. As an extension of its dominance in the music space, Radio Mirchi also does the annual ‘Mirchi Music Awards’ which is equivalent to the Indian Grammies and is clearly one of the most coveted music awards in India..

Thanks. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LOq680pCcts Yaar Teri Bewafaai' Yaar teri bewafaai ka humko zara sa gham nahin Yahan tere se haseen, tere se jawaan kam nahin Tu nahin mila, koi aur mil gaya Dil nahin khila, par dard khil gaya Aur kuch bhi sochte hai hum nahin Yaar teri bewafaai ka humko zara sa gham nahin Yahan tere se haseen, tere se jawaan kam nahin Tu nahin mila, koi aur mil gaya Dil nahin khila, par dard khil gaya Tu hai anjaan, hum anjaan nahin (Tujhko mubaarak ho, yeh naya naya pyaar tera Inse milo yeh mere naye dildaar) - 2 Shikwa kare naa shikaayat kare Chalo hum apni apni mohabbat kare Voh hi samaa par voh mausam nahin Ab voh tum nahin, ab voh hum nahin Yaar teri bewafaai ka humko zara sa gham nahin Yahan tere se haseen, tere se jawaan kam nahin Tu nahin mila, koi aur mil gaya Dil nahin khila, par dard khil gaya Pyaar sholaa hi hai, shabnam nahin (Humne bhi tod di kasmon ko, vaadon ko Bhool gaye hum bhi teri sab yaadon ko) - 2 Tune yeh dil aise tod diya Lekin humne bhi haath tera chhod diya Tu hai udaas, pareshaan hum nahin Tere jaise anjaan nadaan hum nahin Yaar teri bewafaai ka humko zara sa gham nahin Yahan tere se haseen, tere se jawaan kam nahin Tu nahin mila, koi aur mil gaya Dil nahin khila, par dard khil gaya Pyaar sholaa hi hai, shabnam nahin
Re: [arr] Top Ten ARR Albums 2000-2009
Hello Boss, Wherez Guru, Boys, Kannathil Muthamittal, Rhythmn, Nethaji - the Forgotten Hero... I know its difficult to name the top ten of ARR, because he is a kind of MD who wants to give his best in his every album... Please extend the list to top 25 or top 50.. ...

Re: [arr] Top Ten ARR Albums 2000-2009
well, I'm not countering YOUR list :) but since you mentioned you had a bias for classical based, I thought Rythm is missing in the list. My List would have BOSE too. - most of the themes are western classical - orchestra based. And one standout 'song' that I always use for relaxation peace is Naina - Water.
