[arr] Re: Couples Retreat Tracklisting
I am lovin' the album.
I feel inclined to mention the track 'Meeting Marcel'. In this track, if you
listen carefully, there is a classic Buddhist chanting going on, a unique
Buddhist flavor has been added. It sounds stunning.
As far as I can remember, this is the first time any Indian music composer has
used Buddhist chants, let alone in a track.

C'mon guys, (Afro Nisha) is not a singer! It's really funny
to read all the comments about the voice being 'suspiciously' similar to
Rahman. Well, that's because it is Rahman.
I don't think Afro Nisha is even a person. If anything, it could be the
English title of the Tamil 'Kurukuru Kan' or it could even be a new genre.
I can only say one thing for sure, the singer in 'Kurukuru Kan(Afro Nisha)' is
Rahman.

Before ARR got on the project, it was John O'Brien who was listed as the
composer so there's one track from him too. Nice! He's also listed now
in IMDB as having composed additional music.
So all the talk about Vince Vaughn and Jean Reno lending vocals might

Brimming with excitement, the group is Rahman’s very own barmy army, in Pune specially to attend a Rahman show. Every time the maestro plans a concert, this group of boys — and a handful of girls— converge at the host city. While this may sound like a regular fan club, the members insist it isn’t. “We are almost like an official fan club. Rahman recognises most of us and that adds credibility to our group,” says 22-year-old Nazeef Mohammed from Bangalore. But it took nearly a decade to attain this almost official fan club status. “In the mid-1990s, during Roja, I became a huge fan of Rahman. The Internet wasn’t so big and information on him was scarce. At that time, I would read everything possible I could find about him. I used to think I’m his biggest fan,” says Gopal Shrinivasan, a Hyderabad-based financial consultant. But as the network opened up, I realised I was wrong and that there are many people who revere him.” On January 1, 1999, Shrinivasan started a group fan club online with a handful of members to start with. But over time, it gained popularity to log in thousands of registered members including several from Delhi. Though active online, the group didn’t witness any activity of consequence till 2005. “Rahman had announced his Bangalore concert and we all knew we had to be a part of this somehow,” recounts Shrinivasan who is also the group moderator. “About 20 of us converged from all over the country and for four days we did voluntary work for the concert organizers. That is when we all really bonded for the first time.” Ever since, the group has been hosting regular meets in Mumbai. “We try to meet once a month to jam and enjoy Rahman’s music at my place in Andheri,” adds Swapnil Mistry, a professional singer. In the background, excited chatter and conversation flows easily. What’s surprising is that the group — though a melting pot of cultures — uses Tamil as their first language. “Many of us learnt how to read, write and talk in Tamil because of Rahman’s music,” says 29 -year-old Anand Swamy, a Mumbaikar, who has a peculiar superstition before a Rahman concert. “Every time I attend his concert I shave my head,” he confesses, a tad sheepishly. It’s easy to believe that as moderator of the group, Shrinivasan is probably the most level-headed till the group spills the beans on him. “Gopal buys a copy of every cassette and CD with AR Rahman written on it. He has eight CDs of Bombay just because the album was launched with different jacket covers,” laughs Mistry. The stories are endless — at times hilarious and at times moving — but their passion for the maestro’s music evokes respect. “Every time we ask him what he wants for his birthday, he says we should help the needy on that day,” says 31-year-old Vithur who distributes food to the poor every Sunday in Chennai on behalf of the group. No wonder some people say that Rahman’s so down-to-Earth, he has a hunch. -- -A http://viewsnmuse.blogspot.com Are you searching for a reason, to be kind? b Explore, Experience, Enjoy A.R.Rahman - The Man, The Music, The Magic.

To: arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com Received: Monday, March 2, 2009, 12:02 AM Who's AR Rahman? It is quite amusing to see how geo- political differences can influence the coverage of events that have cultural acceptability across borders. KUNAL MAJUMDAR scans Dawn and The News of Pakistan, and The Daily Star and The New Age of Bangladesh in search of two words ‘AR Rahman’ and ‘Oscars’. Posted Sunday, Mar 01 15:59:04, 2009 While the Indian media went overboard with the coverage of Oscars, the Pakistani media tried its best to ignore the Indian connection. The leading newspaper Dawn has no mention of AR Rahman’s win. In its lead article – ‘Slumdog scoops eight of its ten nominations’ (23 Feb, 2009); it does mention that the movie is based in Mumbai and gives brief outline of the story. Beyond that, it simply ignores the Indians who won the Oscars. A feeling that Dawn intentionally wanted to stress on the poverty angle of the story comes with the accompanying articles and photographs of slum kids. The News, of the Jang Group, was no different. The article -- ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ wins Oscar gold at 81’st Academy Awards (February 24, 2009) tells the readers that Slumdog is small-budget British movie on “A ragtag group of Indian orphans”. The writer mentions how the cast and the crew of the movie was present to accept the best film award, which included “several school children who were plucked from Mumbai’s shantytowns to appear in the movie”. AR Rahman again ignored! The Daily Times also ignores the Indian winners. However, it has a more sympathetic approach. It quotes Danny Boyle offering gratitude to Mumbaikars and saying they even, “dwarf even this guy (Oscar statue)”. The newspaper is the only one to carry a photograph of the cast and crew of the film, where you can see Anil Kapoor, AR Rahman and Rasul Pookuthy. One wonders how many Pakistanis actually know about Penelope Cruz and Hugh Jackman, compared to AR Rahman! Bangladeshi awareness Bangladeshi newspapers seem to be much more aware about the Indians in the movie. In an article – Oscar Glory for ‘Slumdog’(February 24, 2009), The Daily Star mentions AR Rahman’s win quite prominently. The newspaper calls Slumdog Millionaire a “feel-good film about a Mumbai tea boy who rises from poverty and enters a television quiz show to win millions and find the love of his life”. Quite a contrast to Pakistani media’s definition. It goes on to mention that in spite of being directed and produced by Englishmen, many Indians claim it to be their own. A very just portray of the debate in India on the movie. The article also mentions about Resul Pookutty and the best documentary – Smile Pinki. Photographs alongside have AR Rahman with his two Oscar statues. ‘AR Rahman wins Golden Globe’ was the front-page story on The New Age (February 24, 2009). The newspaper used Reuter’s input and made Rahman’s win the peg of the story. The writer spoke about the versatility of Rahman’s music and his other achievements. While other western actors and films did get a mention, but it didn’t dominate the story unlike the Pakistani coverage. It is quite amusing to find how geo- political differences can influence the coverage of events that have cultural acceptability across borders. http://www.thehoot. org/web/home/ story.php? sectionId= 8mod=1pg= 1valid=true storyid=3683 __ Instant Messaging, free SMS, sharing photos and more...

It is a brilliant achievement. For the entire nation, it is a very proud moment, Tendulkar said this morning. The master blaster, who had had a word with A R Rahman a couple of days ago, was confident that the musical genius will walk away with the honours. Rahman's contribution to music has been immense and this award is only a mere reflection of what he has been able to contribute to music and to India. I had spoken to him not only about this, but about other albums as well. He has always been able to produce something special in every album, Tendulkar said. Rahman won two Oscars - for the best original score and the best song. __ Looking for the perfect gift? Give the gift of Flickr! http://www.flickr.com/gift/

Re: [ARR] Times of India writes about us!
Oh you guys! This is so brilliant. Very proud of each and everyone of you!! Gomzy [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The times of India, Blore edition. page 21 Mad about Rahman, dil se These fans live and breathe A R Rahman's music, finds Sharmishta Koushik It was the year 1992. The film Roja was released and with it, a new music sensation blossomed in the Indian film industry, attracting droves of fans, mesmerized by his melodies. Their chotti si asha is simply to have the pleasure of listening to A R Rahman's music and perhaps, watching him perform live, and if they were really lucky, say a few words to the musical genius in person. Meet the A R Rahman Fans. What started off as an e-group, set up by Gopal Srinivasan, a Bangalore-based consultant, is, today, a veritable database of all things Rahman. From several media interviews to rare recordings of his tracks and the inside information on when a new album will be released, these die-hard fans are truly connoisseurs of Rahman's art. The intent behind establishing this group was straightforward to use the power of the internet to network with Rahman's fans around the world so that we could share the joy of listening to his music. In many ways, it is Rahman himself who is responsible for the popularity of this group his music and his appeal cutting across barriers. I am guilty of initially under-estimating the global reach of his music little did we realize that we would have people from so many countries across the world joining in, says Gopal Srinivasan. And indeed, today, the e-group has over 13,000 members. On a rather sultry Sunday evening, a few members of the group in Bangalore gathered in front of the rose garden in Cubbon Park to talk about their passion. Quite befitting, considering that for most of them, their love affair with A R Rahman's music began with the film Roja (rose), and like his music, their devotion to his talent has only increased from strength to strength. Says Kangan Upadhyay, who works in a software company, We heard the songs of Roja before they were officially released. And although I didn't know the language, I could relate to those songs.'' And she gives credit to the music director for her superb scores in her II PU exam. At that time, the music of Alaipayuthe was released, and I kept listening to it all the time while studying. I scored 99% in Maths. I kept humming the songs in my mind even as I was writing the paper,'' she recalls with excitement. The way Rahman's compositions revolutionized Indian film music is something the fans immensely respect. He brought in a whiff of freshness,'' says Balaji Rajagopal, a chartered accountant. He brought to Indian films a sound which was, until then, only heard in jingles,'' says Chandrashekhar Ganesh, a techie. Earlier, viewers would walk out of the theatre for a smoke when the songs would come on. Rahman's music changed all that,'' says Gomtesh Upadhyay aka Gomzy, a techie. He's even a good singer,'' says Vithun Kumar, a BE student. Adds Shahnawaz Gaffoor, a techie, His music is international.'' Not surprisingly, Rahman's concerts are always a grand event, akin to international acts performing in India. And these fans ensure they are there to watch Rahman live. Most of them took off to Chennai recently, when Rahman performed there for a concert organized by The Times of India. In fact, it was during the 2005 concert in Bangalore when the city's fans met each other in person. They volunteered backstage and even had T-shirts created especially for the event. Rehearsals are when they get to interact with the maestro. Some of the members have even met him at his residence in Chennai. Once, I went to meet him at his place. As he was busy he told me to come the next day. He asked me if I was a non-vegetarian. Since I wasn't, he ensured that vegetarian food was ordered for me,'' says Prabhu Krishnamurthy, a techie. During the 2005 concert, they even gifted Rahman a montage of all his album covers, about 94 both film and non-film scores. It now adorns a wall in his studio. And needless to say, if a fan wants to meet him at the studio, those from this e-group are allowed right in. Rahman has even dedicated a colouring book for children, released during the Pray For Me Brother tour, to the e-group in November, 2007. The members definitely deserve such a token of appreciation, considering they have taken pains to count the number of musical genres he has explored. According to them, his music spans about 36-38 genres. The Bangalore-based fans meet up from time to time, if someone gets hold of the latest copy of Rahman's album or a rare DVD of his work. They recently met to watch a behind-the-scenes DVD of the musical Bombay Dreams, which shows Rahman actually composing some of the tunes. We upload rare tracks on to the website.

Re: [arr] Destiny's twins : And the analogy continues..
This is awesome Shah Navas G [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: When Rahman does a Jodha Akbar, Tendulkar does a Don! http://content-www.cricinfo.com/ausvind/content/current/story/333191.html There's a statue of Don Bradman at the Cathedral End of the Adelaide Oval, where he appears to be dancing down the track and lofting the ball straight over the bowler's head. The bat is above his left ear, his knees are bent and the eyes are looking upwards, watching the ball soar into the horizon of his home ground. It was fitting that Sachin Tendulkar chose the venue to bring up an immaculately-crafted hundred, the kind which is said to have put Bradman so far ahead of the rest. There wouldn't have been a better period film (atleast as of now) to show Rahman's class. It wasn't an innings with any distinct shade, rather one that covered the entire spectrum. Walking in to a standing ovation, he didn't score off the first 18 balls. Soon after he had eased into first gear, he set the stage with a flurry of fours. The first was a simple, yet glorious straight drive off Brett Lee; the fourth was hammered past Mitchell Johnson, the bowler. The skies were clear but it would have been fitting if a rainbow hung over the arena. An innings with as much variety and class as JA. Bradman rated his 254 at Lord's as his finest innings, simply because each stroke went exactly where he intended. It was interesting to hear Tendulkar talk about the first couple of straight drives here, saying how the ball travelled precisely where he wanted it to go. These are phases which come and go, he said, and you know when you're hitting the ball well. You need to wait for that moment. So Rahmanesque :) He signed off with a cheeky ramp over the slips, making full use of Lee's pace and bounce, and rounded off an innings which had almost everything. So does JA end with a Bajan. I might sound silly. But I am blessed to be in the same era as Rahman and Tendulkar. When both Rahman and Tendulkar strike the joy multiplies and when India wins and the Movie becomes a hit...the joy is only unlimited. Note: Tendulkar came back with a magnificent century in the DLF cup in 2006 after a shoulder surgery - http://content-www.cricinfo.com/dlfcup/content/current/story/259587.html , around which time Rahman came with the audio of Guru after almost an year of hiatus (in Hindi and had only two releases in Tamil - JOK and Varalaru) after RDB - http://tamil.galatta.com/entertainment/livewire/id/Guru_6511.html Now you know why JA's audio was delayed :D --- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, raja sekar [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: hi, both are not in good form nowadays.. as expected. expecting to be back to the form SOON...

It came out very well and people liked it. That CDs were given to everyone in Bollywood. It was a combination of Jazz Music, country music etc Q :- How did you get your first break ? I was listening to Laxmikanth Pyarelal right from Childhood. They were big shots , and I wanted to contact them somehow. I convinced their watchmen to leave me inside, and he allowed me to meet them. They claimed that it was good, but were giving me some tips abt Music Direction, which I couldnt understand properly. So, I was upset once again. At that time, I heard somewehere in radio that music of ROJA and Rangeela had released. Then I decided that this is the right person for me, who can do the experiment and can understand me well. when I sang the Punjabi Version of Chaiyya Chaiyya in front of the Music Directors in Mumbai, they were telling that its not a good song, an ordinary song, and is creating more noise. So, I decided to run away from Mumbai to CHENNAI. It was a very right decision , and the moment I met ARR, the song was finished in the next 20 minutes. Q :- How did you get a chance to meet ARR ?. There is a musician very close to ARR, whom I met before. I asked him that I wanted to meet ARR somehow, and he told me Come. Q :- Your whole life changed after you met ARR ?? Definitely. ARR is a genius. I met the person, who always makes new experiments. Q ;- How did you convince ARR ?. Now also, I feel I am not a succesful singer. Other singers are doing a good job. I have never tasted succes. I have not seen success. Basically, my motive was to do an experiement with music. When I met ARR, there was no need to describe anything. The moment I met ARR, he told me to write lyrics for the movie . I was shocked. It was fr a waqt for the movie THAKSHAK. ARR told Govind Nihalani that may be wecan try with Sukhwinder singh if he can write the lyrics. So it was liked by Govind ( director ) , and he told ARR that Sukhwinder can write the lyrics. ( MUje Rang De Mujhe Rang de Song ) And then ARR asked if he can write a song dil Se. Sukhwinder jokes saying that he writes all lyrics from his heart ( Dil Se ) , for which ARR told No.. its for a movie called Dil Se ( Maniratnam Film ) . ARr started narrating the situation, and SS was saying about Pir Baba Bulleh Shah. The situation that was explained was suitable for wordings from Pir Baba Bulleh Shah. ARR liked it very much, and then he asked Whom do you think will sing this ?. SS told Let me try. and he sang and then everything was history. first big break with ARR was that .

[arr] Unseen Footage from Aug.15, 2004
Hello all! I have finally managed to upload the video of ARR whilst he was in NYC as the grand marshall during the India Day Parade 2004. I made a special trip to NYC from Canada. I know its been a long time since then, and I heartily apologize for the delay. But I hope you all enjoy the video.

Re: [arr] Re: Happy Birthday
Happy Birthday!! Like always, words fail me to express what A R Rahman and his music means to all of us. So its just better to state the obvious: We love you and shall always do so. tanyaagha [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I totally spelled happy birthday wrong in the message, but oh well, you guys got the idea. hahaha --- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, tanyaagha [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: There s nothing more that can make me happier than Rahman reading this message. Haooy Birthday sir. You have changed my life. I would try to explain, but many times I try to express myself, I feel a loss of words. I believe its January 6th in India. It's only January 5th here in California, but none the less, it's a joyous day. So. happy birthday! 'You are what your deepest desire is. As you desire, so is your intention.
