Re: [arr] Are you for or against ARR redoing CWG theme song
I hope ARR redo this song. For a sporting event, the anthem will reach out every part of the nation (in fact, to the world) with fast numbers and catchy wordsThose are the lacking factors in the song. As an ardent fan of ARR, I find it hard to take when people started to question his ability to compose song for this type of event. In order to shut the mouth of the critics, it's better for him to re-compose the song with a catchy tune and better lyrics. If this remains, the media will always point out that ARR did not bring out the best of him when desperately needed.

Re: [arr] Your ideal interview question
1. If you happened to produce a movie, what kind of genre would it be to suit your music to the best? 2. Is there any song composed when you are feeling sad or very emotional and so happened that the director requested the same kind of song from you at that moment? 3.What are the movies, first offered to you but due to unavoidable circumstances, it went to someone else regardless of the final outcome? 4. Do you have enough sleep nowadays especially when there is a demand to deliver the final product on scheduled time?

[arr] Confirmation about next film of ARR with Gautham......
Does this confirms that ARR will be part of this project? Gopal or Vijay may clarify this. Details of Gautham- Ajith film By Moviebuzz | Friday, 05 March , 2010, 11:00 It’s confirmed that Gautham Menon and Ajith are coming together in Dhyanidhi Alagiri’s new untitled film. Gautham in an interview said: “I have to complete the low budget thriller with Sameera Reddy and newcomer Veera, which will take a month. Then I will start work on my film with Ajith towards the end of May”. Gautham denied his Ajith film has been titled Thuppariyum Anand. Says Gautham: “Yes I have written a script called Thuppariyum Anand, about a detective in 1920’s Madras and given it to Mr. Kamal Hassan and Mr. Aamir Khan. I’m hoping that one of them will do the film.” Added Gautham: “Once and for all I would like to say that the Ajith film is untitled and it is a mass entertainer. All technicians who worked with me in VTV will be a part of this new film, while I’m on the lookout for a heroine.” Meanwhile Ajith has signed up for one season of F2 racing. The star is quoted saying: “ Since Gautham wanted some more time to complete the story and scripting, I decided to indulge in my passion, as I want my 50th film to be a win-win situation for all involved in the film.” Regards, Gobi Kanadasan

Re: [arr] Gautham back with Harris?
But, Gautham has mentioned in the interviews that he is hoping his collabration with ARR will continue. I sincerely hope so. The visuals were stunning in VTV. ARR should work with him more in order not to waste his soulful music to cheap visuals. At the same time, we should not complain much because we do not know the real scenario of choosing a music director for a movie. At times, the director's hands are tied by other factors. Lets hope for the best and prepare for the worst.

Re: [arr] Will it be a super hit(vtv)
Personally, I think it will be a super-hit movie. It has all the elements that could satisy the audience. I think songs are well discussed before and they are far too excellent. BGM was just mind-blowing. Could you imagine Musthapa Musthapa song in it? It was an excellent placement. Just a simple WOW!!! Gautam's story was an intense love story. The climax was a mixture of class imagination and logical. Some will complain about the climax, but think again. It could not have been better presented.

In my opinion, not everyone can work like ARR. I think he even works on Sundays, holidays and of course at nights. No matter how much you love your job, not many can work like him.

[arr] 2010: KOLLYWOOD’S YEAR AHEAD-AR Rahman's Ye ar
2010: KOLLYWOOD’S YEAR AHEAD The time has come to look ahead. 2010 has set in and brings with it a whole lot of expectations and hopes. What else will we be looking forward to other than the biggest movies of the year and other events that relate to cinema? Sports buffs will be over the moon this year as there are many top notch international events waiting for them including the T20 World Cup, the IPL, the FIFA World Cup, the Hockey World Cup, the Commonwealth Games and other regular events of the calendar year. Add to that the excitement that is brought about by the return of Michael Schumacher to F1 racing. We can promise Tamil cine buffs that 2010 is going to be no less exciting for you. Yes, Pongal was not the usual star studded affair in spite of some very interesting releases. But, the star march starts in early February with Ajith appearing in Asal, his 49th movie. But, 2010 will not be about the 49th movie, it will be about the half century of two of the biggest, young (relatively) stars of Kollywood. It is going to be 50 for both Vijay and Ajith. While Vijay is on his way with the shooting for Sura progressing fast, Ajith is yet to finalize his plans though there are pretty strong indications that it might be Gautham Menon who gets his dates. Sura is definitely a 2010 offering though the date has not yet been announced and Ajith’s 50th too is expected to be ready before 2011 begins. Just imagine, what have been said above are the relatively smaller things as compared to the real big draws of 2010.

The music of VTV to me is very mature, thorough, thoughtful, deep, intricate, purposeful, and very crafty. I don't know based on what type of perception that some people are coming up with the word amateurish. If it was just one person who used this word, I wouldn't care to mention it and wouldn't care in general, but it's a word used by several (won't mention names or websites to avoid off topic discussions) . Someone just recently described the music of Hosanna as amateurish. Huh? Can anyone throw some light onto this? Does anyone else feel this way?

[arr] Slightest clue
Hi guys, Just finish watching Koffee with Anu. This time around, the guest was Gautham and Simbu. Gautham gave some slightest clue regarding MD for his future project(s). So, I believe that he will work with ARR more after this. Infact, he mentioned that he is comfortable working with ARR. I believe that it was not a diplomatic statement; it was a sincere one. Moreover, he realized that the reach of the VTV music is universal and people who does not know the lyrics, now listen to the songs. In my opinion, he captures the mood of the songs by minute detail and present them beautifully. I'm sure many would agree with me. Hopefully, this combo continues. If anyone in this group knows Gautham, please let him know that the fans are looking forward for him to work with ARR again. Regards, K.Gobi

[arr] Expectation from our Boss
Dear Rahmaniacs, I sincerely wish that the new voices that is going to be introduced by ARR in future will have unique voice. What I'm trying to say is that 10 people may have talent and knowledge about music, but the one should be given chance is the one who has special voice. Merely by listening to his/her voice, the people could recognize the singer. For example, Naresh Iyer, Karthik, Hariharan, Shankar Mahadevan, Swarnalatha, SPB. Nowadays, there are tendency among the youngsters that they wanna sing like Hariharan (quoted from what SPB has said in one of the interviews). In my opinion, this is not a healthy trend. Voice identity will prolong the singer's career and could carve a special place among the listeners. Hope this kind request reaches ARR. Regards, K.Gobi USM

Even though ARR has produced so many mesmerizing tunes, his efforts are wasted by flop movies and un-attractive picturization (it is said by himself in one of the interviews). No wonder why his works with Maniratnam Shankar always being hailed as ARR best. So in this case, Gautham has reputation of giving importance of music and picturizing the song beautifully. Hence, I believe ARR will elevate Gautham's film to next level with his music. Since he is not the guy who makes 5 films a year, I dont think he will have problem to get ARR music for his films.

Today he is credited with creating the richest legacy of film music any modern music director has ever crafted. Rahman doesn't write what's thought of as world music. He writes a world of music so broad and deep, so instantly likable and lastingly satisfying, it is the whole world, says Richard Corliss, from TIME Magazine. After starting with 'Roja' (1992), Rahman never looked back. The songs became a national rage and topped the popularity charts. 'Roja' earned him the National Award for best music composer - the first time ever a debutant has bagged this honour. Rahman followed it up with his first exclusive Hindi compositions for 'Rangeela' (1995). He offered new sounds, and hitherto unheard tonal variations that catapulted him to the top rung of Bollywood. Rahman, who has redefined contemporary Indian music, continued his colossal stride with memorable compositions for movies like 'Bombay', 'Dil Se', 'Taal', 'Lagaan', 'Kadhalan', 'Indian', 'Duet', 'Minsara Kanaavu' and many more. His soundtracks gained him recognition across the country for his elegant fusion of various styles like Carnatic, Hindustani, classical, folk, jazz, reggae, and soft rock. In 1997 he set 'Vande Mataram' to new music on the occasion of the golden jubilee of India's Independence. In 2001, the legendary Andrew Lloyd Webber invited him to collaborate on his smashing musical, 'Bombay Dreams', which opened to packed houses in London and ran non-stop for two years. Born on January 6, 1966, Rahman belonged to a musically inclined family. He started learning piano at the age of four. At nine, his father, a music arranger, expired, leaving on his young shoulders, the burden of supporting the family. He cut his musical teeth at 11 in South India's famous music director, Ilayaraja's orchestra, as a keyboard player. With Ilayaraja and subsequently with other troupes, including those of tabla maestro Zakir Hussain, Vishwanathan-Ramamurthy and L. Shankar, the young Rahman travelled round the world. In between he won a coveted degree in Western classical music from the Oxford University. Rahman has worked with internationally reputed artistes and groups like Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Michael Jackson, Jennifer Lopez, Jean Michel Jarre, Sir Andrew LLoyd Webber, Deep Forest, Apache Indian, Zakir Hussain, Dominic Miller, L.Shankar, David Byrne, Kadri Gopalnath, Vikku Vinayakram, Ustad Sultan Khan and Pandit Vishwa Mohan Bhatt, among many others. CNN, in a special programme, listed the world's best music directors and placed Rahman amidst the big names like Ennio Morricone and Hans Zimmer. Rahman's music has sold millions of copies worldwide in a career spanning over a decade. He has overtaken the likes of Madonna and Britney Spears in the sales of his cassettes. CNN called Rahman the Maestro of Madras who has sold albums more than the Beatles. His work has won him a slew of international prizes and citations. He has won the India's National Film Award for Best Music Direction four times and the GIFA Awards - Malaysia, for Best Music, twice. He won his 21st Filmfare award this year for Guru. He now holds the record for the maximum number of Filmfare awards. He has received the Best Music Direction award from IIFA several times since 2000. This year he won three awards at

[arr] ARR Come Back Plea
Dear ARR fans, After 16 years, I felt like ARR has gone too far in front of us(Tamil fans). I felt like ARR has left us searching for his soul stirring numbers that were haunting us for years in 90's. It has been quite sad to hear ARR Tamil songs only once in a year for Tamil fans nowadays. ARR used to say, the Tamilians expect a lot from him. In my opinion, not only Tamilians but fans from all over the world expect the best from him. I dont remember him making us upset. In a nutshell, we (I hope there will be someone with me) want ARR to do more Tamil films. Plz dunt let us to search any more. I'm not against him doing Hindi projects and international projects, but plz allocate some time for Tamil films. We need you.

Re: [arr] ( Semi ARR ) Maria Manohar is going to be the next A.R. Rahman ( ????????)
Hi to all, I'm quite sick to hear this. At first the title of the movie. Nayagan is already a established world wide movie, suddenly out of nowhere, this guy is acting in it. Juz two years old in cinema industry. I dunt think so, he deserve this title. After this, he is acting in another name 'remake' movie entitled Thalapathy. Is he going after cheap publicity?Someone claimed that he is d next superstar.Aiyo!!! Joke of the century!!! Actually quite happy that people look after ARR as their benchmark, but at the same time I totally disagree with the one who said, this movie's music director is going to be next ARR. 'NO ONE CAN REPLACE ARR'!!! I dunt worry bout being critised for this, since there are millions of ARR fans with me to support this. Regards, K.Gobi USM,Malaysia [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The audio launch of JK Rithish film Nayagan was held at the Sathyam cinemas amidst a huge crowd of the actors fans. The mood was festive with large cut outs all around the Anna Salai. Scores of youth clad in yellow T- shirts with images emblazoned on both sides thronged the large hall. The audio was released by Rajathi Ammal, wife of the Chief Minister Kalaignar Karunanidhi. The rest of the function comprised of long speeches praising the film and its hero. Director Seeman, Rama Narayanan, KRG, Nag Ravi, Chinni Jayanth and others also attended the event. Later the hero met the press and said, Vijaykumar Reddy, the producer of the film has spent more than one crore on each song.

Re: [arr] -- NON a.r rahman -- Kamal Devastaram
Hi, I'm quite sad actually. Its not bcoz the songs are bad. But bcoz AR Rahman backed out of the project. I'm pretty sure that ARR cud have work wonders with Kamal. When it comes to gradeur, the fans always wud b happy to see ARR name associated with the project. That is why i'm disappointed. The songs would have been far more brilliant if it had been scored by ARR. unbreak2005 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: It's a good thing a.r rahman back out of the project... the songs are not good. only one songs ok. that mukanda mukanda. anyway bad lyrics. it could be the reason the songs were crap music is o.k but lyrics very bad. - Yahoo!

[arr] ARR BACK FOR DASAVATHRAM
Is the news came out in behindwoods is true? Its about producer of Dasavatharam is pursuing ARR to do the BGM for his movie.I really hoping to see AR Rahman's stamp on Dasavatharam movie's BGM. It would elevate the movie to a higher class. I think a few would disagree with this. K.S.Ravikumar and ARR combination rarely let us down. So I hope to hear the news from ARR camp itself.Gopal maybe can verify this news... Regards, K.Gobi USM,Malaysia - Sent from Yahoo! #45; a smarter inbox.
[arr] ARR BACK FOR DASAVATHRAM
Is this speaking the truth? Or its just a mere speculation? I'm really hoping to see ARR score the background score for Dasavatharam. I'm sure it will rock since K.S.Ravikumar and ARR would be coming together again. Their combination very seldom let us down. Gopal again for you to confirm this news..Give us a GOOD NEWS...Let it be Ponggal Present of 2008.

[arr] DASAVATHARAM BGM - ARR---Perfect
I'm glad dat ARR is doing d BGM. Even though he was given very short period of time to BGM for ATM, he managed to do it nicely. So if he is given ample time as Sivaji, no doubtARR's BGM will b standing out. Proof ??? Sivaji. It had world class BGM. Provided Kamal comes out all guns blazingDasavatharam has d chance to be bigger than Sivaji with execellent BGM score. There is an interesting trend growing in Tamil cinema...If u wan your movie to be internationally acclaimed, go for ARR...he will make it noticed at world stageSo many times he has proved it.Juz waiting for the confirmationMayb Gopal can inform us if ARR is doing d BGM.
