[arr] Chat with ARR (taken from ARR Club, Malyalm Cinema forum )
Dear Freinds, I just read the below Chat from ARR Fan Club thread from Malayalam Cinema Forum. I don't know whether it was posted before. http://www.forumkerala.com/malayalam-cinema/8091-ar-rahmans-music.html *CHAT with ARR* -- A. R. Rahman says : I read most of your questions… thought I will just pick and choose the ones I felt like answering due to lack of time. I thank you for taking your time for writing all those beautiful kind words. Name: MAHESH LONDHE Question: I personally feel “ 1947 Earth” is your all time best Music. I am not at all against synthesizer or latest techniques but have a strong opinion that Music is nothing but ‘Feelings’ and therefore a song should be recorded in one go without a break as it was practice previously. What is your opinion ? A. R. Rahman says : Thank you very much. I definitely have a lot of freedom when I work with Deepa Mehta, since she doesn’t nitpick into every little thing. She just gives the general idea and disappears till we make beautiful music for her and she responds later. Freedom is very important in the process of creating music and songs. There are a lot of issues when we record music together, because even if one person is not right, then the whole recording becomes unusable. Hence, by the use of multi-tracks, we definitely try to simulate the seamlessness in a song. But the practice is still on. The music of Lord of the Rings, the musical, and Golden Age, which I recorded recently were all with a live orchestra in one of the most prestigious studios in London Name: Aravind AM Question: Sir, In most of your songs, there are very minute and very fine sounds -which may hardly be noticeable to a normal listener, but if we actually notice them, we appreciate the sheer brilliance. What motivates to to make all those fine nuances in your songs, though the efforts that you put in for beautifying the song may not reach the audience? A. R. Rahman says : There is a story of Michelangelo -- if I am not wrong -- which I heard recently. It seems that he was painting beautiful pictures at the back of the church. People told him you are a fool because you are not painting in the front where people can appreciate your work. The answer was: I do my work for God to watch it. I think he can watch it anywhere. I thought it was a brilliant answer because everything doesn’t need to have instant appreciation. Even if one of you have appreciated those fine nuances, that is enough for me. Name: Armstrong S.A Question: Still i feel that quality and sounds of Roja songs are far better than your recent ones. What is the main reason for that? are you missing Sridar and other sound engineers? A. R. Rahman says : At the time of Roja, the consumer music systems used were of lower qualities and we had to cater to a mono-magnetic tape. Hence we had to exaggerate the high frequencies and use a lot of spacializers. Things have changed in the course of time and we are right now taken a universal approach in the sound quality to make our recordings sound warm and friendly to every system. That covers the recording part. The sounds which you say were inspired from the film of Roja… definitely another film soundtrack will come where you will feel the same or maybe better vibe again. - Name: Vineet Question: Hi rahamn siri am a fan of u...i am hearing runours that u are coming to dubai for a concert...is it true??..if it is true...is it a public or a private concert?...we are very eager to see u here in dubaithanks A. R. Rahman says : You'll know very soon. Name: Shani George Question: Guruji.., wot is dat one special thing you would like to tell your millions of fans..?? A. R. Rahman says : Love makes the heart more lighter and makes you see things objectively and hate darkens you and makes you heavy at heart and uneasy. Make a choice. God bless. Name: Sathya Question: Hi Rahman, I am a die hard fan of you and i am listening to your music since Roja. I have read in your interviews that you do prayer 5 times a day and also its because you love your job you can avoid burnout. But amid such high pressures how are able to do that. Will you get pressurised anytime by producers to finish fast, which can cause you lose your coolness and creativity. A. R. Rahman says : Like hjow we find time to eat food and sleep, we need to find time for 'spiritual food' too. If we have our mind balanced and light, all other things are easier to handle.
Re: [arr] The Hollywood reporter reviews Couples Retreat
Dear Rahman fans, I had read a new from Gulf Madhyamam that AR Rahman had been there in Macca and Madina for Umra from Monday to Thursday. If someone can translate it to English, it would be interested to All Rahmaniacs. Thnx. Haris On 10/8/09, hathim2 hath...@yahoo.co.in wrote: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/film-reviews/couples-retreat-film-review-1004020287.story Couples Retreat - Film Review Bottom Line: This intermittently funny tale of four couples undergoing relationship therapy struggles hard for its occasional laughs. A good idea for a sophisticated comedy lurks within the latest Jon Favreau-Vince Vaughn collaboration, Couples Retreat, but the filmmakers lack the courage of their convictions. So the payoff is mixed at best. The problem might lie in that word sophisticated. The current trends in film comedies are raunch and juvenilia, the very antithesis of sophistication. When Favreau and Vaughn came to everyone's attention more than a dozen years ago with Swingers, they seemed to have the knack for making a guy movie that was both hip and empathetic about men's sexual insecurities. But the two don't quite reclaim that territory in Retreat, which could very well be a follow-up to that tale of randy twentysomething males about town, now married and experiencing varying degrees of marital stress. Boxoffice potential is difficult to judge. Normally, a film involving either or both actors-writers-producers and (in Favreau's case) a director has strong commercial appeal. But the marital issues raised might puzzle or distract younger fans expecting sexual tease and potty humor. In fact, Favreau and Vaughn suffer from the same distraction. There is sexual tease and potty humor here, the latter involving Vaughn's young son, and it's very funny. The sex stuff works less well and feels out of place among married people trying to work through legitimate issues couples face in real life. So the script the two wrote with fellow comedy writer Dana Fox gets pulled in opposite directions. The idea is to send four couples off to an island paradise that serves as a retreat for couples experiencing relationship woes. One couple (Jason Bateman and Kristen Bell) is contemplating divorce. The anchor couple, Vaughn and Malin Akerman, is a well-adjusted pair with kids, friends and busy lives. Another couple, Favreau and Kristin Davis, are more dysfunctional than they might realize, and the fourth couple barely qualifies as such. Faizon Love is newly divorced and has agreed to go along with his 20-year-old girlfriend, Kali Hawk, whom he has just met. The other three couples have come along as a favor to Bateman and Bell because this gives them a cut-rate deal at the island resort (shot in French Polynesia). But the imperious couples guru (Jean Reno) insists that everyone must participate or they can all leave with refunds. Predictably, once the shrinks and relationship experts go to work, no one's marriage is safe. The best sections of the film deal with Vaughn and Akerman since it represents a critique of the relationship industry that is determined to justify its existence in finding problems even if none exists. The most problematic in comedic terms involves Favreau and Davis. No week at a couples retreat is going to solve their myriad problems. Because the movie can't get stalled in therapy sessions, it does venture into the island for forced situation comedy involving a shark attack, an unlikely yoga session and a body massage where mixed signals result in an embarrassing male arousal. The real problem, though, is that the movie can't decide how seriously it wants to take its characters and their conflicts. Producer-turned-director Peter Billingsley wisely turns the movie over to his talented cast. He and the writers can be faulted, however, for emphasizing the male characters over the women even if the title alone would seem to dictate more even-handed portrayals. Tech credits are solid, with the film repping the American debut of Indian superstar film composer A. R. Rahman. His is an efficient though relatively unmemorable job, the only hint of his Indian roots coming in the almost superfluous sequences involving Reno's couples whisperer.
