Even though inumulo/irumbile is 5.15 mins in real time, 
it feels like its ending immediately as soon as it starts..

HE used pallavi only twice- in the beginning and in the ending
and the tune ARR sings in between is an awesome flow..
rap was fit in perfectly... very intelligently crafted.

Boy he has definitely enjoyed doing this song.

[arr] ARR: Rahman won't be available for film scores during most of 2010

2010-03-18 Thread K.P.Chowdary
. R. Rahman plans to be out of India for the longest period. And Bollywood 
filmmakers like Abbas Tyrewala and Mani Ratnam who have pending work with 
Rahman have pressed the panic button.

Rahman won't be available for film scores during most of 2010. It's a very 
tough schedule for me this year, says Rahman. I'll be out of the country for 
five months which I've kept aside completely for the word tour.

The concerts will take Rahman to places he has never been before. I 
essentially need time for my music, spirituality and family. Everything else is 
secondary. We'll be going to remote places in Europe, the Far East and America. 
I'll be touring from this month (March 2010).This would be my longest tour ever 
and I'm not thinking of any other work.

Contrary to reports Rahman turned 43 (and not 44) on January 6. I was born in 
1967, so it's my 43rd birthday. I am an old man now. Do I feel older? It's a 
good feeling. I'm heading towards the place where all of us are destined to 
.You are born and then one day, you die. So my policy in life is to do what I 
want to do today, not tomorrow. If I want to do good things in life I better do 
them now.

Rahman says he doesn't fear death. I think about death every day. Last year I 
lost a couple of very close friends. I've been watching people close to me die 
from the time I was a child. Very early I lost my father and my grandmother 
whom I was very close to. So death is always been with me. It's the only 
certainty in life.

Rahman admits time management is a problem. But you have to prioritize your 
time and do what you must. For example I know I've to be away for five months 
this year. So it'd be foolish of me to commit myself to anything until I finish 
my concerts.

Rahman says it's a blessing to work out of his home. My family is always 
around me. I think that's what keeps me creatively charged. When I travel I 
crave to return. My kids are growing up. It's important that they see their 
father regularly. Or they'll soon start calling me Uncle.

Rahman has just done soundtrack for Tamil film directed by Gautam Menon. Then 
I've Mani Ratnam's Raavan and Abbas Tyrewala's 1-800-Love. Also Shekhar 
Kapoor's Paani which is a very important film. I've recorded one song for it. 
After the Grammys, I'll look at other international offers. But with the world 
tour on will I have the time?

This may sound dumb but I really wouldn't want to ask any questions to ARR. As 
it is, there are just way too many questions thrown by the media to him at the 
moment. 
Given a choice, I would really be happy watching ARR chilled out and talking 
about his life, his music and his experience in the film world at his own free 
will, rather than giving brisk answers to questions. 
An interview need not be looked upon in its literal sense. It certainly need 
not be a Q  A session. A lovely chat/talk/discussio n (or whatever you may 
name it) would have been wonderful for a change. It leaves a nice impression on 
the interviewer…plus, the interviewee has the opportunity to voice out what he 
feels instead of confining himself to the questions asked. And we, as the 
viewers get the opportunity to see a lighter sight of the interviewee himself.

MUMBAI: After a series of concerts in India, and most recently in Australia, 
A R Rahman will now be heading to North America as a part of his A.R. Rahman 
Jai Ho Concert: The Journey Home World Tour. 

The North American leg of the tour is slated to begin on June 11 at the 
Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Uniondale, N.Y., with dates booked 
through July 3 performance at the Toyota Center in Houston.

For this massive international tour, Rahman is leaving no stone unturned. It 
is reported that Rahman is collaborating with creative director Amy Tinkham 
and make it both visually and aurally appealing to his international fans.

A well known director/choreograp her, Amy Tinkhan is part of McDonald 
Selznick Associates (MSA) who represent some of the finest stage directors 
and production designers in the business. MSA has so far executed some of the 
top grossing tours of all time, including Madonna's 2008 Sticky  Sweet Tour 
(the highest grossing tour by a female artist in history), Celine Dion's 
Taking Chances Tour, Cher's Living Proof Farewell Tour, Michael Jackson's 
HIStory Tour, Justin Timberlake's FutureSex/Love Show, and Paul McCartney's 
Driving Tour.

According to reports, Rahman's concert in North America will be a theatrical 
experience with dance and acrobatics. However, at its core its going to be 
Indian. The show will feature changing sets, large images on LED screens and 
a spectacular cast of musicians and dancers from across the globe.

The surprises don't end here. The Journey Home World Tour, will also feature 
tracks that Rahman was working on with the late Michael Jackson before his 
tragic death. In addition to songs from Slumdog Millionaire, fans will also 
be treated to his bollywood hits from Lagaan, Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na, Dil Se, 
Rang DeBasanti and Roja.

The concert series will be produced by Deepak Gattani, and will travel to 
over twenty international arenas including The Forum in Los Angeles, The 
Patriot Center in Washington, D.C., American Airlines Arena in Dallas, Texas 
and Wembley Arena and the O2 Arena in London. 



Concert will also feature tracks that Rahman was working on with the late 
Michael Jackson before his tragic death - OH MY GOD!!! We will finally hear 
Ekam Satyam WOOHHOOO.

http://www.andhraheadlines.com/BrowseArticle.aspx?CatID=6ArtID=59002


Recently Trisha disclosed the main point of the tamil movie ‘Vinnaithandi 
Varuvaya’, “The movie is about two matured lovers and hence our (Trisha and 
Simbhu) maturity was put to better use”. 

You might doubt what is the significans of the statement here. Because the same 
movie has got Telugu version with Naga Chaitanya and samantha as lead 
pair.Director Goutham Menon is simultaneously making the same movie in Tamil 
with Simbhu and Trisha as lead pair.

After reading the statement of Trisha, now the big question is, whether Naga 
Chaitanya able to justify his role as a matured lover or not? Naga Chaitanya 
who failed to impress the audience with his debut movie ‘Josh’ is under 
tremendous pressure. If he fails to impress second time , it is not only his 
fault but also Nagarjuna’s for choosing the wrong script for him at this young 
age in movies.

Naga Chaitanya’s second film ‘ Yemmaya Chesavo’ is almost finished and movie 
makers are planning to release  the movie in March.Mahesh Babu Sister Manjula 
is producing the movie under Indira creations. A R Rehman is scoring music. 
Audio will be released  on February 3rd. 

Nagarjuna is feeling pressure not for his own starrer ‘Kedi’, but for his son 
second movie

In their maestro’s FOOTSTEPS

This group of AR Rahman fans feeds the poor every Sunday

Lakshmi Kumaraswami | TNN 

For the past one year, a group of people on motorbikes have been congregating 
at Kodambakkam
every Sunday. Laden with food packets, they hop off their bikes and distribute 
it to anyone who
looks like they need a meal — rag pickers, sewage workers and beggars. These 
good Samaritans
have one thing in common: they are all diehard fans of music maestro AR Rahman. 

Last March, after meeting on an online group, some of the members — Vithur, Uma 
Shankar,
Rakesh, Rasol Hanifaa and Somu — decided to do their bit for society. “Usually, 
we post a
message on the site saying we’re going to meet and distribute food to the poor. 
Subsequently,
many people turn up,” says Vithur. The group assembles at Shri Mahaganapathy 
fast foods in
Kodambakkam and buys packed food — usually tomato or brinjal rice along with an 
appalam — for
Rs 300 to Rs 500. Then they drive around the area, handing out food to the 
underprivileged. “We
initially started out in Annanagar, but then decided to focus on Kodambakkam. 
As Rahman lives
in the area, we feel like we’re doing a service and staying close to our 
mentor,” says Uma
Shankar. Vithur adds that the students of KM Conservatory also often help out 
and they end up
feeding at least 40 people. 
The group is united by their love for Rahman and inspired by the AR Rahman Fo u 
n d at i o n
, which works towards eradicating poverty and hunger. “His humility pushes us 
to do something
good for society. This is our small contribution to a cause he supports,” says 
Rakesh. On
special days like Independence Day or Rahman’s birthday, the group visits 
orphanages and
distributes a special meal. They organised a similar meal on Rahman’s return to 
the city after
his triumphant run at the Oscars. “Usually, when we distribute food, we don’t 
mention Rahman’s
name. But this time as we gave away special sweets and food, we said ‘Ellam 
pugazhum
irraivanake’ as a tribute to him,” says Vithur. He adds that the BlaaZe joined 
the group when
they distributed free meals after H Sridhar, Rahman’s sound engineer, passed 
away. 
The group plans to continue this service as long as possible. “We would like to 
expand but
with our hectic schedules this is the only way we can do it regularly,” says 
Uma Shankar.
Rakesh adds that there isn’t a better feeling than seeing the happiness of the 
people they
feed. “It would probably be their only meal that day. Sometimes I leave the 
packets by their
side while they are asleep and when they wake up, nothing can match the look on 
their faces,”
he says.
