Re: [arr] ARR Database Interface Design
Thanks Guys, I'll be designing the other search query pages according to the criteria of singers, directors, year etc, and will be asking for the feedback. Please note that i can help in design purpose only, not very good at coding. I am sure that the friends here are well qualified for this job. I'll do my best with what i know.

Re: [arr] Why the past songs are better
Roshan, Frankly speaking when i see the heading, I though again somebody starting the old better and new lost charm discussion.. again. And other members wil join it and will be a long mail thread. But i am glad when i read it. It was really good and you said exactly what i feel. Its the nostalgic feel of momemts which we associate with a particular song which makes it special and likable. I myself had these memories. I remember going to my best friends house, who is a punjabi and he said, listen to this album and he played Rangeela I cant tell u the feeling when i heard that beats and songs. It was simple anything i had heard before. though expected from Rahman as i was hearing his songs since roja, but the moment come unexpected. On my way back to home, i had new Cassette of Rangeela. I feel people always have this old is gold concept in their mind. let the new songs become old, then they will also be likable and nobody will say its not soul less. Great post buddy.

Though I don't agree with them I have my favorites from the past. Not just from Rahman. From all the composers, musicians and singers. But the fact is that it is not because the songs were better in the past. it is because we always hold on to our past. be it songs, incidents, falling in love, breakups, marraige functions, first job, college graduation, a great friend.. the whole life. We always think that past was somehow better. We are always worried about the future. don't we cherish memories from our childhood and teenage ? It is the same with songs. when we hear an old song, it triggers memories of incidents, people, happiness or sadness that we related to that particular song. Beatles' Yesterday is an absolute favorite of mine. there are plenty of great songs even better than that one. but it brings me back the memory of a great time had in Brunei when I got my first job there in 2003. That is when I started listening to international artistes often and on top of that I was in love. And, when I hear it now, it gives makes me feel like I have lost something but, in reality I haven't. I love Tanha Tanha from rangeela a lot. it is a great song, musically. But the reason I love it the most is because that is when I got my first portable cassette player (Videocon Walkman) along with a cassette of rangeela as a gift. I did my schooling in a hostel, and I became a popular kid because I had a walkman. lots of kids would come to our dormitory to listen to the songs. So, we put some money together and bought a speaker and placed it on top of a cardboard box with a hole in it, so the rest of the kids can hear it. I was so excited. because not only I got more friends, I was doing something with electronics stuff.. cutting the earphones and connecting the wires to the speaker, making the sound go louder with just one cardboard box with a hole! I felt like I was Einstein! now, when I hear that song.. it brings back memories of my friends, that cardboard box, that videocon walkman, and my great school and teachers. We all talk about how great the classics were. we regard RD Burman, Noushad, Ilaya Raja and the whole lot of great musicians as the best and some people even compare them with today's musicians and talk about how music has lost its soul. It hasn't lost any soul. it is because those people related to their most cherished memories when they hear their favorites. give today's music another 20 to 30 years and we will be talking about how great the 2010's music were. It is same for AR Rahman. the reason why some of you think that ar rahman created better music in 90s is because you were probably teenagers or children during that time and probably were having the greatest times of your life. there were lots of things happening, experiencing new things.. and probably ar rahman's music even helped you a lot at that time. and when you hear it now, you are taken back to that golden era of your life. try to understand that fact before saying ar rahman's music lost the soul. it only means that you have grown up, you have become more experienced, aged and wiser ( and probably grayer and fatter - no offense, just for fun.). get into the mindset of a teenager again and see if you all can enjoy the Kala Bandar and Jai Ho and Fiqraana and even Enthiran. I bet you will. sorry about the long post :) --- http://roshanravi.com http://ramblingsoul.com http://cssheaven.org

Some of India’s best musicians will lend their magic to the multi-national, multi-sport event. Composer-musician Ranjit Barot has been appointed as the music director of the Games while A R Rahman has been commissioned to compose the theme song or the official anthem. As music director, Barot will be working on all segments of the event, including the opening and closing ceremonies, along with Rahman, Taufiq Qureshi, Hariharan and other musicians. “There are a number of cultural segments involved in the Commonwealth Games, so there is plenty of scope for varied styles. However, since the Games will be held in India this time, the underlying feel will be quintessentially Indian. We have tried to capture the essence of ancient and contemporary India through the music.

Too garish and loud with no substance in some songs? When Endrendum Punnege in Tamil was released, it took us by shock. What music it was. Is there any such 'Wow factor'. I doubt.

Re: [arr] ARR 5th in list of Most Trusted Indians
Wow.. Thats a strange but a very interesting list.. And quite well surveyed. :) On Tue, Mar 2, 2010 at 7:18 AM, Gopal Srinivasan catchg...@gmail.comwrote: Kalam tops trusted Indians list IANS Published on Tue, Mar 02, 2010 at 17:31, Updated on Tue, Mar 02, 2010 at 18:14 in India section New Delhi: Former president A P J Abdul Kalam and industrialist Ratan Tata top the list of 100 most trusted Indians while artist M F Husain is at 91 and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati is at the very bottom, a survey conducted for Reader's Digest has revealed. Prime Minister Manmohan Singh is ranked seventh, one place below chess grandmaster Vishwanathan Anand, Sachin Tendulkar is at number eight and Nobel laureate Amartya Sen at 10th place along with Wipro chairman Azim Premji and Indian Space Research Organisation M Madhavan Nair. Congress general secretary Rahul Gandhi is ranked 29th in the survey published in the March edition ofReader's Digest that hit the stands Tuesday. *Others in the top 10 list of India's most trusted Indians are former police officer Kiran Bedi (3rd), Infosys co-founder Narayana Murthy (4th), music composer A.R. Rahman (5th) and cartoonist R.K. Laxman (9th).* Among India's most trusted professions, teachers are at the top, followed rather surprisingly by firefighters and farmers follow at number three. Scientists and members of the armed forces share fourth position, with doctors at sixth, pilots at seventh, pilots at seventh, surgeons at eighth, nurses at ninth and engineers at 10th. At the bottom end of the scale of 40 most trusted professions are religious leaders (35), lawyers (36), police officers (37), government officials (38), realtors (39) and politicians (40). The survey was conducted online by market research firm Digital Edge that sent out 5,000 invitations, with 761 people responding by the cutoff date, Digest editor Mohan Sivanandan told IANS on the phone from Mumbai. The survey covered 30 cities, with two-thirds of the respondents being under 35, possessing a bachelor's degree and three-fourth's male, he added. Given this, Sivanandan has added a caveat in his editorial in the Digest. Although we cannot claim this survey to be absolutely scientific, you'll agree with me that the overall results mirror public perceptions fairly accurately. Equally interesting are the views and explanations from experts. On a personal note, I don't have cause to rejoice, because journalists are ranked 30th among 40 professions, just below plumbers, the editorial says. Thus, the survey has more than its share of surprises, with cricket captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni ranked at 42nd, way below shooter Abhinav Bindra (25th), while tennis star Sania Mirza is at 81st. The respondents gave a massive thumbs down to politicians and sports administrators. Bharatiya Janata Party leader L.K. Advani is at 94, Railway Minister Mamata Banerjee at 96, Agriculture Minister Sharad Pawar at 97, Communist Party of India-Marxist general secretary Prakash Karat at 98 and former railway minister Lalu Prasad at 99. Indian Premier League commissioner Lalit Modi is just one notch above Advani. Bollywood and the small screen have their share of places with actors Amitabh Bachchan and Aamir Khan at 14 and 18 respectively, with TV comic Jaspal Bhatti at 43, scriptwriter Javed Akhtar at 46, Shah Rukh Khan at 53, Sushmita Sen at 64, Rajnikanth at 67, Kamal Haasan at 71, director Anurag Kashyap at 78, Malayalam actor Mohanlal at 80, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan at 82 and TV serial producer Ekta Kapoor at 95. Among the other surprises in the list, President Pratibha Patil is ranked way below at 67, Planning Commission Deputy Chairman Montek Singh Ahluwalia at 41, Home Minister P. Chidambaram at 50, novelist Khushwant Singh at 51 and environmentalist R.K. Pachauri at 61 along with CNN-IBN Editor-in-Chief Rajdeep Sardesai. Congress president Sonia Gandhi is at 72, Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee at 73, Minister of State for External Affairs Shashi Tharoor at 84, Leader of Opposition in the Rajya Sabha Arun Jaitley at 86, Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi at 87 and Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah at 89.

We have done few activities in small scale initially and that’s the time we came to know about the tree plantation Program in tiruppur by “Isha Yoga centre”.Isha yoga were planning to plant more trees and the concept kicked off from tiruppur Which is called as the export city of tamilnadu. They will plant the tree and look after the tree till it grows well as the tree has to be taken care For the initial period and will name the tree in the name of the person who has donated which is a nominal charge. We the fans of arr decided to contribute and donated isha yoga to plant four trees in tirupur on behalf of *Our brother A.R.Rahman,his mother and H.Shridhar*. So two trees was contributed in the name of our anna and one by his mothers name and another in the name Of shridhar sir. Last week we got a letter from isha yoga thanking for the contribution and they have mentioned the locality Where the trees has been plant.We will send u the scanned copy of the letter sent by them soon.The trees will spread the names of arr,his mother,shridhar forever. *Mr.Vignesh and Mr.indrakumar* were the important persons co-ordinating for this cause under the support of fellow Members. As anna’s b’day is approaching and isha yoga having centres in many parts of the country wants to spread this Program to a larger extent,contributing to this cause in ur city atleast planting a tree in the name of arr will help the society In future.u can also plan for this activity for his forth coming b’day Kindly contact isha yoga in ur city and contribute for a tree. May the glory of ARR grows always by the almighty's blessings Thanks Murali Ramakrishnan On behalf of RBC,Coimbatore. -- New Windows 7: Simplify what you do everyday.

It's not as if I coined it on the spot for *Slumdog Millionaire*, says Gulzar saab after hearing that '*Jai Ho*' has been nominated on Thursday in prestigious category of 'Best Song Written For A Motion Picture' at the Grammys. '*Jai Ho*' is a term that is as ancient as it is sacrosanct. I would sound extremely foolish if I took any credit for that phrase or for the success of that song. The entire credit must go to Rahman and Rahman alone. He has taken our popular sounds to an international level. On hearing of his song '*Jai Ho*' being nominated for the coveted Grammy, the song's writer Gulzar saab makes a startling observation and suggestion. Both me and Rahman have done work that has been like before. What makes '*Jai Ho*' special was that it was part of a non-Indian film. *Slumdog Millionaire * is not an Indian film. Just like *Gandhi* was not. We need to understand that international recognition comes to us when India is packaged into a non-Indian vehicle. Slumdog Millionaire could vie for mainstream American and European awards because it was an international film. Otherwise our films like *Neecha Nagar, Mother India, Do Beegha Zameen* and the films of Mrinal Sen and Satyajit Ray have been nominated in the 'foreign' categories. Gulzar saab has a suggestion. Let's have a category for best foreign cinema in our National awards so that we too have a chance to recognize films made outside India. As for '*Jai Ho*' acquiring a life much longer than the film, Gulzar saab says, When I wrote '*Jai Ho*' I was looking for a phrase that would best represent Indian sentiments. That it's now gone from the Oscars where movies are honoured, to the Grammys where music gets recognized, is an amazing journey for '*Jai Ho*'. Like I said it's from the Ramayan to Rahman. I will take no credit for it. http://www.bollywoodhungama.com/features/2009/12/07/5753/ -- regards, Vithur

[arr] In Fond Memory of Sridhar Sir..
On the 28th of November, 11 of us(fans of AR) took time out of our routine to Donate lunch to kids at an Orphanage in Chennai and spent some time there. This was initiated in fond memory of the Great sound engineer Mr. H. Sridhar, who passed away an year back. The orphanage was a small one and managed by a trust by name, Kaakum Karangal. There were a total of 60 people taken care by the trust of which there were 30 Boys, 20 Girls and 10 elderly people. We sponsored the day's lunch for them and it was a special meal with sweets, and other savories. We went there by about 1 in the afternoon. We thought we could serve, but as it turned out they had a completely different system of service, a highly disciplined and military style; the children were made to sit in 4 rows with plates in their hand. And the food was kept at one end with 2 elderly people serving it. The kids took their turns, in a very orderly fashion, to get the food. They were served by the elders. After filling their plates they sat in their place. Once they settled with the food, they gave a 2 minutes' prayer, all reciting aloud. It was so good to witness 60 people saying out the prayer aloud. Sent out so much positive vibes. :) After that they sat there, happily eating. We could see that joy in their eyes and that was joy to us. Food filling their stomach and our hearts.. This was the perfect way to pay tribute to a genius like Sridhar sir, spreading joy in his name.. He continues to live in all our Memories.. May his soul RIP. Thanks Regards, Rakesh R

Re: [arr] The Significance of ARR's White House Invitation
Good write up.. And yeah, the last thing AR would want is to be recognised when he takes a walk on the streets of LA. :D On Wed, Nov 25, 2009 at 12:26 PM, ichord purev...@yahoo.com wrote: As ARR fans, we are of course pleased that ARR was allowed to showcase osme of his talents in a very exclusive atmosphere at the White House State Dinner, the first one under the Obama administration. The larger picture of this struck me when I read a FB post of another ARR fan who mentioned its significance. Was ARR the logical/default choice of a performer given the Indian/American partnership being celebrated at The White House? One could argue that. But, I think the fact that ARR was selected alongside a list of very popular and distinguished artists highlights his overall esteemed status in the West post Slumdog, largely because of Slumdog, but not just because of Slumdog. ARR is now a brand name, exclusivity personified when it comes to high quality popular Indian music, and recently his musical entrance into hollywood with Couple's Retreat being met with overall praise and appreciation by both East and West only adds to his towering resume. In India, he has always been a celebrity since Roja, but now, even in the West, he has achieved celebrity status through his accolades and efforts, which will continue to be appreciated as he continues to build on his hollywood career. While he is not a household name in the US and will likely never reach public celebrity status like superstar pop musicians (which to me is a good thing!), the global respect and admiration for his work is right up there amongst the musical elite around the world. No other MD in India has achieved this before. How fitting that India's Mozart be recognized world wide, but to me, it's not a given that he would achieve this. While I had always hoped and prayed that his talents would be recognized outside of India, I was very cautious about my hopes, since it's not talent alone that achieves this, but the right timing, smart decision making, marketing, personal relationship skills, attitude, contacts, and little bit of good ol good luck. I hope that the Obamas get a chance to delve into ARR's music beyond Slumdog and uncover more musical riches.

Re: [arr] My comments on Jai ho Kolkata
That in itself was an awesome writeup on the concert Nazeef.. And a reply to the various doubts of Rajib.. Good one.. :) On Mon, Nov 23, 2009 at 1:33 PM, naztitude nazeef.moham...@gmail.comwrote: Singing tamil songs also means giving the Bengalis a chance to listen to some awesome numbers which they wold have never otherwise... I have got three email requests asking me for the FRENCH RAP song... Called Taxi Taxi! Felt good to know so! Singing Hindi versions over Tamil versions may not be the best option. Chandralekha sounds best in Tamil, known fact. Hence. The other songs were in Hindi only. Chandralekha in Hindi did not sound too good in Delhi..the tamil portions were way better. ARR's speciality is his improvisations.. and he does them with style! especially raagas and aalaps.. there is so much fun hearing a new version! The CD is always there for the original. One could see how much fun AR had while singing Fiqrana... He was into it! The way he was touching the Fiqrna notes... he was so enjoying it! let's give it him..he created the song... will post the entry video soon..forgetting lyrics is a part of the live show business..and that's another beauty..how ARR can hum it off or alaap it off! I totally enjoy the live act! :) Mausan and escape start was nothing but some jamming session..to create a build up for the act to follow.. Rehna tu.. he usually hums the entire continuum, those who attended the previous shows must be familiar..this time he played the harmonica on it.. something unusual.. sounded good..maybe vocally he went off and came back at some places..but was a good performance.. he would actually touch higher notes in this song... Naveen was there for the bombay theme..the singers were not there..and this was only to support the Visual credits on the LEDs.. This concert AR actually opened up..u hardly hear him shout and say Welcome Kolkata...this is the Jai ho o o o o concert! ;) and he also spoke on and off and in between two songs!! And he had some energy in Khalbali! Must mention that!! Rajib...coming all the way to the concert must have been fun and worth it! There are still so many fans in group and otherwise who have not had the good fortune of seeing him live. Enjoy the moments. Appreciate how u write about the show, but to just let u know, after having seen enough shows.. improvisations,mistakes,lyrical errors are part of the game. If u could not hear the song, then it's a complain, for sure!!

Ok,let's start da main part of this writing,which is describing the whole Concert in MY WAY. . .at first the cheking wasnt enough,there was no metal detector or anything like that,no one even hand searched anyone,which was very risky in my view,thankfully therz no mishap :-) I hated the starting portion of some organaizer ppl's speech, expected Sourav Ganguly to be there,but later thanked him not to be there as that saved our precious time @6:45pm . . ARR came up on stage with a lift singing . . Jaage hain. . .i found it too repetitive . . Saw this kinda entry with this perticuler song in many of his concerts . . .there are huge number of masterpieces to replace this one. . .but his performance rocked in it !! Then . . .khalbali . . Same with it. . .repetative but performance rocked. . Audience just gone crazy after this *Singing tamil songs in West bangla was a BIG MISTAKE* , it was like a foreign film without subtitle to atleast 95 % of them present there,i loved Atthiradi . . As i was a huge fan of dis powerpacked song,but west bangla Audience couldnt just relate to it,only i was shouting the song from the crowd,and i could see ppl were in a shock,they never heard of this and allmost all tamil tracks (that is what i felt being there,and being a bengali. . .forgive me if therz any exception). . .when i was singing all tamil songs,ppl around me was looking at me weirdly,may b wondering how this long haired boy can sing in this weird language,as they heard me talking in bangla as well [?] . . . A Big thanks from my side to arr for performing tamil tracks in kolkata. . .but mass people dint like it. Hariharan's Nahin samne stole hearts of Classical lovers of west bangla,saw one old guy beside me enjoyin it fully. .. . I dnt need to comment on Hariharan's performance at concerts. . .he is always perfect. Delhi6 title track and then jiya se jiya made the mass crowd cheer up after nahin samne. . .but there was some mistakes in both these tracks,happens in a live performance . . Nevamind. Then lady lush came with killer dancing performance with Liquid dance . . Audience (including me) were in shock to see this kinda dance in a ARR concert,it was just WOW . . Then the Bangla track Ekla cholo . . I knew it will b played here. . .thought Nachiketa ,the main singer of the Bangla part of dis song would b there,ppl would just love it. . He is da ARR of west bangla. . .but Javed ali was more than perfect in accent and singing both sonu nachiketa's part. . One of the most loved track of dis concert Sadhna ji started with Kehna hi kya . . I was very happy. .. . The dancers behind set da environment there,then sadhna ji's singing . . Awesome stuff. . .but ARR's performance in those sa re ga ma part was bad . . He forgot it totally, and managed to complete it being totally away from the original part, i dint like it,i am a huge fan of dat part of dis song. . .then it was again sadhna ji with jiya jale. . Her performance rocked . .and it's one of da most populer track of ARR in both Bangla. . So u can imagine the exitement. I also didnt like Arr's Fiqrana performance,and the music was nowhere close to the original. . .arr forgot the lyrics in someplace,sang out of tune in someplace. . .I think it was perfect @ reharsel,as far as i can remember. . Dnt knw how they messed up with it the next day. . .the sound system was also at it's best at reharsel . . .bt @ the concert. . .there was indeed some problems [?][?][?] Sometimes there was some bad sounds,and in one place arr's singing was not audible at all . . But his Dil se just rocked. . . He was @ top of dat lift. . .the look was awesome. . .i would have loved if he had sung the tamil version of it, but mass audience wont. . . Then again Lady Lush back with another powerpacked dancing and rapping on Konjum nilavu. . .with neeti muhan. . .but alas most of the audience never heard of the tamil version. . .so they couldnt sing with the singers./.But they surly heard of the hindi version

Few days back somebody pointed out that SDM is a British film and films like SDM and harry potter will never be nominated fro Oscars..they have better chance at BAFTA. I disagree.. because films like The Full Monty is also a British Comedy film. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Full_Monty The Full Monty was nominated for a total of four Academy Awards: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Music Score, and Best Original Screenplay.

Now, Rahman has come up with a composition, which he thinks is apt for Himesh to sing. Rahman said, “Yes, I have come up with a composition that Himesh can do justice to. It is an important song for a big actor, in a huge project and for a big banner. But since the shooting of this song will happen only next year, it will be wrong on my part to disclose too many details about it at this time.” • I don’t sing for any outside banner (where I don’t act). I would instead request Rahman saab to give music for one of my films where I am the actor and singer – Himesh Reshammiya So what made Rahman choose Himesh for the song? Rahman said, “Himesh’s voice and the attitude with which Himesh sings is just apt for this composition. I haven’t spoken to Himesh as yet but I will be talking to him very soon.” When we told Himesh about Rahman’s plans, he said, “I am a great fan of AR Rahman and his music. It’s a great honour for me to sing his composition, but as a policy decision, I only sing for myself onscreen. I don’t sing for any outside banner (where I don’t act).

In my forthcoming films Kajra Re, Mudh Mudh Ke Na Dekh Mudh Mudh Ke, A New Love Ishstory, and an untitled film for Studio 18, at least one composition in each album is dedicated to Rahman saab.

Re: [arr] The best message I got after Jaane Tu… was from A. R Rahman: Abbas
ARR's best quote: When one door closes, 7 doors might open Tyrewala sure has got his one opened.. :) From: Gopal Srinivasan [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, 10 November, 2008 5:12:09 PM Subject: [arr] The best message I got after Jaane Tu… was from A. R Rahman: Abbas I'm here only because I had courage to ignore Ram Gopal Varma: Abbas Tyrewala By Subhash K Jha Abbas Tyrewala who started his career as a lyric writer has gone back to his roots. Last month he flew to Chennai to write the Hindi lyrics for A R Rahman's score for the chartbusting sounstrack Boys. Says Abbas, This is the first time I've done something like this, convert the Tamil songs which are huge hits into Hindi for the dubbed Hindi version. The trick is to not translate the original words which I couldn't anyway because I don't know Tamil, but to go with the flow and rhythm. Abbas started his career as a lyricist. But lyric writing was never a serious vocation. I did it as a passion and hobby. I wrote songs for Ram Gopal Varma's Love Ke Liye Kuch Bhi Karega, E Niwas's Dum and Hansal Mehta's Dil Pe Mat Le Yaar. My lyrics were quite wacky. That chracterizes everything I deal with, including my finances. Abbas wanted to cast Farhan Akhtar in Jaane Tu… At that time I didn't know Farhan was seriously interested in acting. I wanted to cast him in role of Sushant (played by Ayaz Khan), the debonair slightly arrogant character. Then when I heard Farhan was seriously interested in acting, doing leads I banished the thought. I think all writers-turned- directors would make a good actor.Me? I'd also act well if cast well, in a wacky role. Last month Abbas was actually mobbed in a mall in Chennai. These two girls came up to me for a picture. We've had much bigger hits but somewhere people have connected with Jaane Tu…. The place I am in today comes from my having the intelligence to ignore Ram Gopal Varma years ago when I was writing a film called Ek for him. He had told me to change my name because he found my name to be too bizarre to be taken seriously as a writer. I stuck to my name. It's a difficult name and difficult face to forget. The era of star-directors seems to be upon us. Says Abbas, Before Karan Johar there were Sooraj Barjatya and Aditya Chopra. The only reason they weren't stars is because they were reclusive. These were the first directors whose names were bigger than the actors. Then there was Ramu. But the culmination of this trend is Sanjay Leela Bhansali. With due respects he isn't a recluse like Sooraj Barjatya or Adi Chopra. These guys stayed away from the limelight because they wanted the film to be bigger than them. Sanjay is very clear he wants his name to be as big as his cinema. He's no producing his own films. I'm turning co-producer with my next film because I want to own my own films. Shekhar Kapoor says it's very difficult to be simple.Does Abbas agree? I don't know. Different things come naturally to different people. I've a bit of Woody Allen in me. Honestly I never knew how Jaane Tu…Jane Na would turn out. The problem was not whether people would like Imran Khan. The problem was, would they respond to such a non-violent pacifist hero? The best message I got after Jaane Tu… was from A. R Rahman. He said this film would many open doors for me. And it did. A lot of writers don't succeed that well as directors. That's because they give a playwright's touch to their dialogue-baazi. I'm completely involved with the cinematic medium. Jaane Tu… is my most commercial film. Now I want to march to my own drum beat. Abbas feels for too long he has been considered an avante-garde writer. Do you know Munnabhai MBBS was originally meant to be a 1.5 crore film with Om Puri in the lead? Fortunately Vinod Chopra saw something in it. Abbas is not fully satisfied with Rock On, the second cult hit after his Jaane Tu…Jaane Na this year. I had some issues with Rock On. But then I've major issues with my own film also It's a very interesting premise. Quite well shot a times. A few moments worked for me. But given the kind of reviews I had read, I was a little underwhelmed by Rock On. But then Arjun Rampal on stage looks like a few million bucks. http://www.santaban ta.com/cinema. asp?pid=23818 Connect with friends all over the world. Get Yahoo!

Re: [arr] THE DAY I MET REHANAJI,
Janardhanan Bro.. Tht was a great share.. Interesting stuffs about AR.. :) Thanx .. Hope u get to meet Rahman sir soon enough.. Insha Allah.. From: sriramhero2003 [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, 8 November, 2008 4:10:47 PM Subject: [arr] THE DAY I MET REHANAJI, I had a chance to meet Rahmanji's sister Rehanaji. She shared a few incidents about thier childhoo days to me. Am sharing it here now, Rehanaji said during schooldays Rahmanji was equally naughty as any other boy of that age. She and Rahmanji used to fight always for almost everything. She also said that there would be no oral fights ever. Everytime they fought they used to hit eachother. Rahmanji used to get more angryand fight woth her most of the time because whatever the minimum number of friends he had used to go and play with Rehanaji at once they returned from school. Because Rehanaji used to throw off her bags and go out to play after the school but our Rahmanji used to come home and sit with the Harmonium after school. She shared more expeiences about them playing indoor games. Rahmanji used to play only indoor games during his childhood. His most favourites were carrom board and chess. He used to win over Rehanaji everytime they played carrom. Even if Rehanaji was in a stronger position to win Rahmanji would win the game by taking out his coins from the board when Rehanaji does not know. Everytime Rahmanji cheated the game would finally end in a big clash and a fight as usual. Rehanaji shared this incident very happily. She said after 20 Rahmanji became more silent and involved himself fully into music all the time. She said there was a time when she used to advice him but times changed when she started learning more things from Rahmanji. She said they speak more about spiritualism and music nowadaya. I would really fail on my dity if I dont mention about the prayer she had in between the chat. She very plitely said she'll be back after her prayers and went for prayer. This shows the level of devotion to God in Rahmanji's family. She shared more experiences like the emotional way Rahmanji's songs are. She remembered a daybefore the audio release of the movie Karuthama. She had the audio cassette with her. That was the time when they were building their house. She had gone to the terrace alone to check the amount of work getting completed. She said she listened to Porale ponnu thaye at that time and unkowingly she had tears flowing down from her eyes. She says Rahmanji's songs always takes time to grow on you. She feels that all the MD's are getting inspired from the works of Rahmanji. She then remembered another incident about the recording session in Rahmanji's studio for the song Poovukenna Pottu from BOMBAY. There is a baby which smiles in the song. Rhamanji asked Rehanaji to record her daughters voice for it which was only 6 months old. She then brought her child and made her sit before the mike. The baby started laughing in the beginning but soon started to cry at the top of its voice and it never stopped. So Rahmanji had to record the cry. Rehanaji became very confused on what Rahmanji would do with a crying sound because the songs itself was nee siricha deewana but Rahmanji had changed the cry to laugh somehow and inserted it in the song. These were the few incidents she had shared with me. Am really grateful to God for giving me an oppotunity to meet someone from Rahmanji's family. Although i haven't met Rahmanji in person, I found myself very lucky to have met Rehanaji who made me feel very comfortable throughout. Thanks alot to her too. She also said gajini audio is soon to release. Sorry bros if it was too boring. Felt i should share it with everyone. Regards, Janardhanan R. Connect with friends all over the world. Get Yahoo!

Re: [arr] When Subhash Ghai Got Emotional - It's touching...
Thanx Krish Bro.. But Karima Maa had come for Sakarkatti audio launch too.. Not her first public appearance.. Maybe its her first in the Bollywood scale..:) From: rahmanfever [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday, 7 November, 2008 6:55:13 PM Subject: [arr] When Subhash Ghai Got Emotional - It's touching... Subhash Ghai recently got very overwhelmed with emotions at the music launch of his soon to be released musical extravaganza `Yuvvraaj'. While the occasion was very important to him, there was one special guest who made it all the more extraordinary for him and that was Karima Begum, mother of musical maestro A.R. Rahman. It was for the first time that Karima Begum made her public appearance. She flew all the way from her home town Chennai to Mumbai just to inaugurate the Music of `Yuvvraaj' where she presented the first CD to Subhashji. Subhashji still gets emotional reminiscing the day After the music inauguration of `Yuvvraaj' I went to my room and while contemplating about the entire day I remembered my own late mother who made me what I am today…she taught me the value of relationships, love, she brought music to my life and of course the significance of blessings from near and dear ones. I was very close to my mother and even though she is not around but I can still feel her presence even today. When I first met Karimaji, I found the same love, simplicity and power in her; she brought the same smile on my face as my mom did. Yuvvraaj's music is scorching heights on the music charts all over the world and it has to be a blessing up from above. Yuvvraaj produced by Mukta Arts Limited, will release on 21st November, 2008 http://www.indiagli tz.com/channels/ hindi/article/ 42853.html -- regards.. Krish..

Re: [arr] Marmayogi indefinitely postponed
There's still a shimmer of hope.. Lets wait.. From: Gopal Srinivasan [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday, 7 November, 2008 8:55:18 AM Subject: [arr] Marmayogi indefinitely postponed Pyramid Saimira to no longer star in Marma Yogi D GOVARDAN. Financial Chronicle Chennai Article Rank THE Chennai-based theatrical chain company, Pyramid Saimira Theatres (PSTL) last big carrot to dangle market attention seems to have just slipped away from its grasp. Marma Yogi, the much touted magnum opus of Kamal Haasan has now been postponed indefinitely. Marma Yogi was to have been produced by PSTL on a first copy basis through an arrangement with Kamal Haasan's Rajkamal Films International. To be made in Tamil, Telugu and Hindi, the initial estimates placed the production cost of the film at around Rs 120 crore. He (Kamal Haasan) is not doing Marma Yogi now. It has been postponed, an associate, privy to the developments at Rajkamal Films International told Financial Chronicle. The project has been postponed indefinitely as the star is now gearing up to do another project instead. Discussions are already underway with a few film companies, he added, when quizzed further. Marma Yogi was to feature Kamal Haasan in the lead and he was also billed to direct it. Two female leads – Trisha and Shriya Saran — were also roped in with plumb roles for the period film, which was positioned as a 'high cost, high value' film by Pyramid Saimira Group. It already had several false-starts, with a few deadlines fixed for film's launch and also for the commencement of the shooting. The launch venue too shifted from Chennai to Mumbai. But, the project failed to start till date. In fact, industry apprehensions over Pyramid Saimira's ability to take the film forward were raised quite a few months back and rumours that the actor may join hands with another company for the film also started doing the rounds. Subsequently, both Pyramid Saimira and Kamal Haasan came out with a joint statement in the third week of August this year, reposing their faith in each other's capability in taking up the project. Rajkamal Films International has signed an agreement with Pyramid Saimira Group. Any news to the contrary is a slur on our bonafide partnership Kamal Haasan had then said in his statement, issued along with that of Pyramid Saimira. Marma Yogi has not been dropped. We are renogiating the terms, an official with PSTL told FC on condition of anonymity. Be the first one to try the new Messenger 9 Beta! Go to http://in.messenger.yahoo.com/win/
Re: [arr] Interesting writeup on Rahman's music from naachgaana
:).. So well said.. From: Chord [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, 4 November, 2008 9:51:30 PM Subject: [arr] Interesting writeup on Rahman's music from naachgaana I respect this member a lot and he usually has very intelligent comments. This is a response to the thread about Yuvvraaj's music being declared best music of the year by T Series. Rahman is always ahead of the competition. I don't say this as a matter of faith. There are other albums I've liked, other songs I've been addicted to (the Bhool Bhulaiya title track has been the single most addictive one for me in recent times!). But what we have to recognize and/or understand is that Rahman moves at a level of music composition (in the widest sense of the term) that is way beyond that of anyone else on the contemporary scene (for example SEL and V-S have admitted as much in different contexts). A Rahman album can be average by his standards but not with respect to the competition. We might often prefer other albums and composers the way one loves fast food even as one understands it's not high cuisine. A failed Beethoven musical work still does not equate Beethoven with John Williams! Much as a mediocre work by Tagore is only so by the poet's lofty standards and does not exactly make Prasoon Joshi better than him even on the latter's best day! I mean this sort of analogy when I compare Rahman with the competition. The `gifts' Rahman displays are simply far in excess to those other composers (assuming one can use the label for all of them and I have my doubts!) reveal. It's not just a matter of `tune' but also musical arrangements, transitions within songs, what I would impressionistically call the 'surprises' Rahman offers, the counter-intuitive features of his melodies, so on and so forth. One should just look at the list of instruments Rahman uses in each album. This is just one index of his skills as a composer. But there are many elements that are lost on the untrained ear (including my own) which is why it is important to pay close attention to what informed reviewers (in India, such as the great Ustads in their fields and only occasionally among `critics', and elsewhere in the West) say about his work. For example I recall reading when Swades came out that Rahman had used a very rare raag in one of the songs (I forget which one). This again points to the extent to which Rahman is familiar with the repertoire of his field in both the classical and the popular sense. Just recently he has suggested that anyone `who likes Beethoven' will like Yuvvraaj. There is a lot to be pondered on when one hears such a statement. And then as one goes through the gamut of one's career one sees everything really in his 'smorgasbord' (Qalandar's word I think in what was the best piece I have ever come across on Rahman's music) from North Indian forms to Carnatic ones, from jungle beats to classical stuff reminiscent of Bach. And one could multiply these examples. So it's not a question of blindly judging Rahman the best. it is also about paying `attention'. Connect with friends all over the world. Get Yahoo!

Re: [arr] AR Rahman is to music what the Champions T20 League is to cricket
The theme song of T 20 was played by the Maestro himself on his piano.. It was telecasted on Cnn Ibn last night in the show Love of Cricket.. Again today morning they showed the full song..

Targeting the family, the campaign will kick off later this week and cover print, television, radio, online and outdoors. We want to position this event as being completely different from anything else including the IPL. It is the first of its kind since it only has the champion sides. So we came up with the tag line Champions Takre Toh Game Hi Badal Jaye, says ESS marketing director Nirmal Dayani. ESS got the ball rolling by getting AR Rahman to compose the anthem. The music video is being put together. We want to emphasise the fact that AR Rahman is to music what the Champions T20 League is to cricket. The message that ESS is looking to send out is that when one talks of the Champions T20 League there is no comparison with anything else in this sport. The same applies to AR Rahman and his music. Dayani adds that cricketers who will take part in the event will be used in the campaign. The channel is shooting creatives with them. This is especially important since the channel is looking to create team loyalties and have fans bond with their favourite side and stars. Dayani adds that while the event will have all the excitement and entertainment associated with the T20 format, the fact that only champions are taking part in this event gives it an aspirational dimension. ESS is looking at tying up with retail outlets and other companies fior cross promotions. We are in the process of finalising the deals. The aim is to offer consumers an enriched experience, says Dayani. The Champions T20 League takes place from 3-10 December 2008. Eight teams take part including Chennai Superkings and Rajasthan Royals who will represent India. The finals will be held in Mumbai. http://www.indiante levision. com/mam/headline s/y2k8/nov/ novmam21. php -- regards, Vithur Add more friends to your messenger and enjoy!

[arr] Marmayogi to be Shelved for a few months.. :(
Kamal Hassan’s next film project titled Marmayogi which has Trisha, Hema Malini, Shriya and Shobana in the lead is said to be in doldrums due to financial constraint. The project is already estimated to be a 120 crore project and Kamal is eager to start the film project.Already Pyramid Samaira is financing this project and will also take the distribution rights. But due to the debacle of Kuselan at the box office the financiers of Pyramid Samaira are rethinking on this project. Kamal Hassan is deterred with this issue and is said to take up this project on his own with the support of some NRI’s. Kamal Hassan received a big blow yesterday when one of the NRI’s who supported this project backed off by saying that he is not having enough faith in this film. The films script is said to be based on ancient civilization concept and may be the project can be shelved for almost three to six months. http://hinducinema.com/tamil-cinema/tamil-movie-news/marmayogi-to-be-shelved-for-few-months.html Seems like an old news..

Giving it further thought, I feel that Taal/ yuvraaj music are sort of commercialized , that is how ghai wanted it to be, whereas all Mani's albums have a purity, an innocence, a composed-for- the-listener, -not-composed- for-market feel in them.
