 I cant remember listening to any album as much as i am listening to VTV.
 And that too in a loop right from Omana penne to Aromale like one big song.

 Quite an amazing experience.

VTV is a very special album for me too, despite me not knowing a word of Tamil. 
 There is something quite spiritual about this album that I can't really 
describe further.  There's a very nice range of music and the sound quality is 
crisp and top notch.  The orchestration is beautiful and even the faster, 
techno numbers are intelligently created with exceptional rhythm and crafty 
arrangements.  

Man oh man...VTV, D6, CR, Blue, Jaane Tu, Yuvvraaj, Ada, Jodha Akbar.it 
simply doesn't get any better.

[arr] London Philharmonic Orchestra and Rahman (and spare program)

2010-04-08 Thread Indmov Buff
I thoroughly enjoyed the night despite the initial disappointment of finding 
out that AR would not be performing, a few weeks back. It was unique and 
special and I was only seated 1 row away from the maestro himself! Azad Khan 
and Naveen Kumar were the surprise packages. They were magical. Truly. 
My pick was Roja, Taal (Nahi Samne - b.e.u.t.i.f.u.l), Couples retreat (Sajna 
was awesome!), Slumdog, Swades and Lord of the Rings (Lothlorien- wow!). 
Amazing stuff. Nihal's (BBC Asia Network) QA session could have fielded 
more relevant questions I felt, despite wanting to ask unique questions. But 
was a truly memorable night for me and for you I hope. 
Unfortunately it was too late when I found out that a program was on sale for 
£3. I contacted the Southbank centre for one on Thursday but they said they 
didn't have any. I was wondering if any of you have an extra program that I 
could buy off you? Would be eternally grateful if anyone is able to give me a 
program for the night- willing to pay what you ask for it! (Gopal, Vijay - any 
I could get off the production house? ) Pretty please?
Thanks!


  

[arr] IN Entertainment acquires Hindi remake rights of Vinaaithaandi Varuvaayaa

2010-04-08 Thread $ Pavan Kumar $
http://businessofcinema.com/news.php?newsid=15895


MUMBAI: IN Entertainment (INE), has acquired the Hindi remake rights of Gautam 
Menon's Tamil film Vinaaithaandi Varuvaayaa.
The
Hindi remake will be directed and co-produced by Menon along with INE
and will have music by A.R. Rahman. The cast of the film is yet to be
finalized.
The film was also made in Telugu as Ye Maya Chesave.
Simbu and Trisha have enacted the lead roles in Tamil while Naga
Chaitanya and Samantha Ruth have enacted the lead roles in the Telugu
version.
Menon says, We are delighted to be working with INE
and the Hinduja Group for the Hindi Remake of Vinnaithandi Varuvaayaa.
It has been a revelation working with A.R. Rahman on the original film
and we plan to re-create the same magic in the Hindi remake.
IN
Entertainment CEO Sunir Kheterpal adds, Vinnaithandi Varuvaayaa is a
simple yet an extremely engaging film with great music and a universal
theme. INE is looking to develop and produce films with talented Film-
makers and Producers in Tamil, Telugu  Hindi and it is an honor to
be associated with talent like Gautham Menon and A.R. Rahman in the
first project itself. We look forward to working with the original
producers, Gautham and S. Elred Kumar on other projects as well.



  

[arr] Times Online

2010-04-08 Thread Gopal Srinivasan
There are some tempting nuggets scattered across the *Alchemy* season, the
South Bank’s five-day celebration of Indian and South Asian arts. The young
group of improvisers the Teak Project play a free show at the QEH today, for
instance, and the festival closes on Sunday with a screening of the classic
Bollywood epic *Sholay*. Sadly, the cornerstone of the event, a celebration
of the relentlessly prolific screen and stage composer A. R. Rahman, turned
out to be a bottom-numbing test of endurance.

 Thanks to the runaway success of *Slumdog Millionaire*, Rahman is very much
a global brand. Even if you think Danny Boyle’s movie was a stupendously
overrated sliver of melodrama with pseudo-documentary trimmings, there is no
denying that it arrived at a propitious moment, when the new India was
claiming its place on the international stage. But as the conductor Matt
Dunkley and the London Philharmonic dutifully waded through one anodyne film
sequence after another, it became clear that much of Rahman’s instrumental
music has the same well-manicured but lifeless qualities as those chains of
five-star hotels that cater to our global elite.

The evening had opened with dancers decorously passing through the aisles
holding stylised diva candles. Thereafter the proceedings took a more
anonymous course. The programme crammed in material from all directions,
including extracts from the score to *Elizabeth: The Golden Age* and the
Hollywood comedy *Couples Retreat*. Rahman, a self-effacing figure who sat
in the stalls, announced that he saw the evening as an opportunity to
showcase “the other side of me”. While the vocalist Alma Ferovic and the
Metro Voices choir gave sturdy performances of the multiplex fare, many of
Rahman’s admirers at this sell-out show may have been left wishing that more
room could have been made for his more conventional writing for playback
singers.

Naturally enough, the brief *Slumdog* extracts won loud applause, the guest
sitar player Asad Khan injecting passion into the fusion of classical Indian
textures and brasher Western pop figures. The flautist Naveen Kumar added
another layer of much-needed local colour during his cameo appearances.
Although the theme from *Roja* lingered in the memory, we were back in the
airport departure lounge for the stage musical of *The Lord of the Rings*. A
hint of Celtic mist had hung in the air earlier in the evening; now we were
wallowing in overripe anthems, the full-blooded singer Michael Rouse
marching off into the rain-swept hills.

[arr] Maaya Machindra in INDIRA??? :O

2010-04-08 Thread ARRvind
Folks,
 
 In the Discography section of the official website of AR, there is a mention 
of the song Maaya Machindra credited to Harini as the singer inside the movie 
list of INDIRA.! Is this a goof up?? OR is there any short piece of Harini in 
reality???
 
http://www.arrahman.com/v2/discography/films-tamil-indira.html
 
 
Also, Maaya Machindra is very famously recorded in Indian in the voices of 
SPB and Swarnalatha. Then, was this song included first in Indira and then 
shifted to Indian..???
 
 
 Any insights about this??
