  GoM finalises Rahman's CWG theme songNew Delhi, Aug 15, (IANS):

 *The Group of Ministers (GoM) on the Commonwealth Games has finalised Oscar

 winner A.R. Rahman's theme song for the mega event and it will be made

 public in 10 days, the panel's head said on Sunday.* *

 * *GoM has finalized the theme song. A.R. Rahman will give final touches

 and it will be presented before the people in 10 days, union Urban

 Development Minister Jaipal Reddy told reporters after the two-hour long GoM

 meeting in Nirman Bhawan.

 

 The theme song will be the last song of the opening ceremony, Reddy told

 IANS, answering a specific question.

 

 An official of the Commonwealth Games Organising Committee said the song

 would be previewed at 9.45 a.m. Monday.

 

 The GoM has finalised the theme song. A preview will be held at 9.45 a.m.

 tomorrow (Monday) at the banquet hall of the Ashoka Hotel, the official

 said.*

 

 Reddy chaired the meeting of the GoM after Prime Minister Manmohan Singh

 intervened to take stock of the much-criticised preparations for the

 Commonwealth Games.

 

 *The Group of Ministers heard a presentation on the theme song by A.R.

 Rahman. We discussed the theme song with Shyam Benegal and Bharat Bala, as

 well as Rahman, and we approved it in principle, Reddy said.

 

 The theme song generates excitement and gives the right message. The theme

 song will be released the for the people of India in 10 day's time, he

 added.

 

 Organising committee chairman Suresh Kalmadi said: I like the song. To a

 question if there were any concerns about the Games preparations, Reddy

 said: No concerns at all.

 *

 The old deadlines remain, but we must make up for the delay. We did take

 stock of various matters in the meeting, but we will not go into detail.

 Yesterday (Saturday), PM gave guidelines and we are absolutely confident

 about hosting the Games, Reddy pointed out.

 

 He added that all matters related to the Games were discussed in the

 meeting. We are still sticking to all the deadlines. Preparations for the

 games will be on track, he said.

 

 The meeting was also attended by Sports Minister M.S. Gill, Delhi Chief

 Minister Sheila Dikshit, Organising committee chairman Suresh Kalmadi and

 senior officials of the Central Public Works Department, the Delhi

 Development Authority and the Public Works Department.

 

 The prime minister's intervention came after unending controversies relating

 to mega sporting event, beginning in 50 days, caused the Congress leadership

 to look for more sharp monitoring by the government.

 

 The Congress core group discussed the issue Friday at the prime minister's

 official residence and decided that the government should step in a way to

 ensure no loose ends remain.

 

 Observing that there had been slippages in the time schedules of some of the

 construction works and deficiencies had also been observed, the prime

 minister directed the concerned ministries to conduct thorough

 investigations into all the complaints that have been received of procedural

 and other irregularities.

 

 The GoM has been empowered to take all decisions necessary for the smooth

 conduct of the Games and the cabinet will be briefed on the state of

 preparations on a weekly basis.

 

 Cabinet Secretary K.M. Chandrashekhar has been directed to liaise closely

 with the GoM to ensure effective coordination among all the authorities

 concerned.

  No way... Iam sorry..I know u suspect me for that. Iam not a fool, to 
re-use the same style of writing after creating a new ID. And everyone in this 
group knows, that Iam straigtforward and at times outspoken.If I want to tell 
something, I will straight away tell it, whether it is positive or negative. I 
dont need a separate identity for that.

And I do disagree on many things he said. He said Raavan is good. I disagree on 
the same. (Except Naan Varuven).By the way, My reply to the thread starter is: 
Rahman is too busy as u said, and he cannot avoid Tamil films at the same 
time... But U must accept that, due to Rahman's busy schedule, there is heavy 
pressure on him. So he cannot handle the arrangements' department alone. So, he 
uses 6-8 people for the same. So, U cannot expect the complete Rahman magic in 
the arrangements or BGMs. That is just because time doesnt permit Rahman sir to 
handle everything alone.
Till around 2005, ARR concentrated on doing minimal work, with maximum quality. 
So he handled most of the things alone, and there was magic in every layer. But 
since, many people brought allegations that ARR is not accepting many offers, 
and he is disappointing the directors, ARR had to change his strategy, since 
the human-being in him did not want anyone to be disappointed. So, he had to 
delegate his arrangement work to many, due to the busy schedule. After the 
oscars, this pressure has tripled, and so has the quantity.
So, no one can blame ARR here for taking up projects, or not finding magic in 
his songs.
Do wait for 'Battleship' , his upcoming big project in Hollywood. You will find 
the 'Complete AR RAHMAN Signature' in it.
jai ho.
Once again to all: I dont need an alter ego to express my views! I have been in 
this group for years.. and i have shared everything positive and negative,

Date: Wednesday, August 11, 2010, 10:48 PM

There are certain experiences in life that change you as a person and
help you grow into a better individual. For me, these defining
experiences happened during those years that I was a student of AR
Rahman’s KM Music Conservatory.

As I look back on that journey that has evolved me into making music
my life and profession I feel KMMC happened a little late in my life
but I strongly feel it couldn't have come at a more right moment than
this. I had a keen interest in music since childhood, listening along
with my grandfather to his thousands of carnatic collections including
M.Balamuralikrishna, Thyagaraja, Ramadas, and many Annamayya
Keerthanas and instrumentals. I recall composing rough tunes for fun,
even before I started learning music formally. But it wasn’t until AR
Rahman happened, that my
 passion for music grew beyond words. I became
a devout fan of Rahman Sir ever since Bombay had released. I remember
skipping my school continuously to go to the theatre where Bombay was
being played just to listen to the music and the background scores.
And with each of his releases after that, his music became a daily
fuel for me.

I had completed my Engineering degree in Chennai and was working a
mundane software job. Of course, my body was there, but my ears, mind
and thoughts were just tunes, melodies, rhythm and one man- AR Rahman.
So when I heard news that Rahman Sir was going to open his own music
school here in Chennai, which offers courses in western classical
music, various areas of music technology, instruments, and vocals, I
thought to myself, “If I wanted to give my passion for music a chance
to grow and give a chance to live my dream-job as a composer, THIS was
it.” And what better
 opportunity to learn at an institution developed
by a man who I worshipped and looked up to for so many years. So
without hesitation I applied for an audition. Now I wasn’t at all sure
I would get in and did not even tell my family or anyone else about
applying to the school. I thought to myself by auditioning I would at
least catch a glimpse of the school and studio, and if lucky catch a
glimpse of Rahman Sir. So I was super surprised and was just in utter
disbelief when I got that call of acceptance and my family was even
more shocked when I told them that I am going to resign my job and
join KMMC. So here I was literally on cloud 9, about to begin a
journey that I had only dreamt of all these years.

In KMMC I took western classical vocals and composition as a major
with a prior knowledge in carnatic vocals and keyboard. As soon as I
entered the conservatory compound on the first day, I could just
 feel
the aura of positive energy all around. The school had almost like a
homely and soothing atmosphere with wooden floors and furniture,
accented with warm curtains, large middle-eastern rugs, a beautiful
grand piano and a picture of Rahman sir's father in the main reception
area. More than this it was my fellow classmates from all corners of
the world, and the amazing faculty that made those years the most
memorable.

Moreover, being part of KMMC I saw Rahman Sir in a whole different
light, and my respect and devotion towards him grew to infinite
lengths. During the first week he came and interacted with us in
person and asked us our ambitions and goals. I still remember when I
asked Sir at that time to hum a few lines of New York Nagaram, what he
said in response will forever stay with me. He said. Guys don't stick
only onto New York Nagaram, music is beyond the regular commercial
cinema. Make your
 mark, aim at the moon..at least you will reach the
stars .I was amazed at the fact that no matter how busy he was, he
used to attend almost every student recital and concert that we used
to have at KM. He used to listen to us patiently and give us
suggestions, advice and clarifications on any doubts we had with so
much patience. And in case he was unable to make it to an

ARR has never compromised the quality he provides to meet deadlines. 

Why would he do it now?



Two years ago, he gave 6 albums in one year. This year it is 3 albums 

only so far. why can he not be having time?



Remember, 1947 Earth's Ishwar Allah was composed in one day, and 

Raavan's ud ja re was composed in one night. They are great songs.



It is inspiration that expedites the creation of a wonderful song.

According to me, Ghajini is ARR's worst work, in terms of orchestration, tunes 
and interludes. Kaise mujhe was not bad, but not the best. It was the ONLY 
better song in the album.



Then, the most recent surpise was Rehnuma from Blue. The song totally took me

deserves its place in the title credits of a great bond movie. It would have

Since I started the topic, I guess I'll try to clarify some things. And sorry 
if I offended anyone with my initial mail, once again I apologize. And thanks 
for such beautiful replies. :) I expected and really missed some lines of 
criticisms. ;) 



Ok, I told that it was solely my personal opinion in that mail. So, I don't 
even expect if no one agrees with me here too. What I was going to say is about 
my music palette. Ok. I can't understand the nuances of any music. I can't 
identify any raga of any musical piece. But, I listen to them so carefully 
because I don't want to miss even a single faint sound any artist or recording 
artist adds in the track.



I hear pure classical music (Carnatic, Hindustani, Western Classical etc). I 
was totally in love with the songs in my mother tongue Malayalam (not so as of 
now!). In semi-classical music, I am not ashamed that I take pride in saying 
that I have heard most of the best ones in Malayalam, and some in Tamil and 
Telugu. I hear Tamil film songs by Harris, Yuvan and many other composers, 
especially who are from KM school.:) Telugu, I know and hear some catchy 
numbers. Have tried all Mickey J Meyer tracks. But couldn't continue following 
them religiously. Kannada was foreign to me till I reached Bangalore(Raghu 
Dixit, Mano Murthy, Guru Kiran etc are superstars!).  Bollywood mass music also 
I hear for 2-3 times and know that it's in templates and leave them out of my 
hearing list, but some still are very good..like Amit Trivedi, V-S, SEL, Pritam 
(his original melodies are good sometimes!) etc are also some tracks I hear. 
Then if I stumble upon Punjabi,
 Rajasthani, Manipuri etc I hear them too. Then because of the high prevalence 
of English music channels and many original fans (and also the so-called-fans!) 
of the same around me, I hear English tracks ranging from Rock to Pop to 
Country to Blues to Jazz to Reggae to Rap to whatever; it doesn't matter to me. 
Another dimension is the film Soundtracks or the OSTs. If I hear any piece, I 
get it from IMDB or else, I get them from net by searching in the net. If I 
understand that it's not English and if there is no info on soundtracks (now 
many sites maintain though! still some obscure movies are hard to find!), I 
hear it may be 10-20 times and get a word or a phrase and search them in the 
net and finally I'll get them. There are lot of tidbits info too I get with 
them, which makes me realize that World music and movies are far more enriching 
and brilliant than the normal English stuff. Ok, again that's my opinion. Latin 
American Music also is another area
 of exploration. Then I hear completely Electronica, Techno, Trance etc



So, 

1. This is all what I hear in MUSIC. :)

2. I understand only Malayalam, Tamil (not so completely!), Hindi and English. 
:) 

3. And which track I like and not like, no one will know. It remains to myself. 
:)



So, in simple words, I hear some intelligent fusion of the different genres and 
elements mentioned in what's mentioned above, coming together when ARR does 
many tracks. I can trace them from the beginning of his film music career (but 
dont' ask me, it's a sub-conscious process!!).



So, personally when I see him collaborate with many other artists, I 
wholeheartedly wait for the product and mainly I want to see what are they 
adding to ARR's music. And when I hear them as I said above, if I like them or 
not, that info will stay with me and me only. :) 



If I sounded like boasting about myself (even I feel so now after reading it 
once!), I can only request you all to consider this a clarification. And I am 
still exploring all these interesting genres and ranges of music.. :)



Sorry for this long mail (Initial mail was better I guess!!)take care you 
all. Enjoy Endhiran... :)

  Hi all,

Did anyone hear the rap part in Dochey as Yuvan... Make the bad guys cry??  
LOL!! I keep hearing it like that! :P

and apparently, actor Sidhaarth too (Sidharth of Rang De Basanti and Boys 
fame) 

Chk out his tweet to Yuvan himself:
@Raja_Yuvan song 
from ARR's 'Puli' sounds like this yuvan, make the bad guys cry!!! Ha 
ha..youre a crime fighter for ARR?

and check out yuvan's reply:
@Actor_Siddharth
 me Lol plsss


Sidharth's so excited about the Komaram Puli album, and has been raving about 
it on twitter!!

Chk out his tweets:

Got my 'komaram puli' CD.Exciting evening in 
store!!Well done sony music for pricing such a premium musical property 
at Rs.60!Go power star!

Fantastic album...heard it 4 times back to back, 
and its getting better. ARR hits the right chord and hits it hard! 
'Komaram Puli' rocks!!

Maaralant, doche, amma thalle all very good, i 
like overall consistency of the album. Vintage ARR after a long 
time...must buy!

My top track is 'namakkameeyara swami'. Very 'o 
palan hare' in its essence and very 'chinna thai aval' from thalapathi 
in its music. Wow!

Make the bad guys cry! The cheddavaallu cry..ha 
ha!! Dochey dochey!

Dochey on komaram puli reminds me of the track
 walou by outlandish.. .superbly mixed, amazing vocals!

The hype surrounding 'komaram puli' is 
unprecedented! This year has promise to be telugu cinema's biggest ever.
 PK, Ntr, Mahesh all in line!

My dear friend and collaborator lyrical maverick 
Chandrabose has written all the songs of 'Komaram Puli'...fantastic 
work. So proud of him!

  I feel that this concert postponment or rescheduling has lost lot of time

looking to meet ARR LIVE. This time lost means, valuable time of ARR is lost. 
He could have signed Hollywood project or Indian project by now. There is no 
signing happening and no new movies in west and east. I feel ARR should 
calculate everything accordingly so that his time is not lost for waste. In the 
west, he has a good name after SDM movie, but he has not released anything to 
attract them after SDM. Couples retreat was not a big hit in the west to 
attract them. My only worry is ARR should not be told as a 1 time fluke md in 
west and he should prove who he is to the west by signing important projects 
which he will get
 fame and recognition. In india, also, we dont have much projects from him 
after this year. only 1800 love and Rockstart are there. no more releases after 
that. Sultan is a gone case. 
 
Please i request ARR to schedule these concerts accordingly so that his 
precious time is not wasted.  Jai ho ARR.

Honestly, the language is barely understandable in most of the songs 
  (except for Nammakame). Pronunciation is flung out of the window. Come to 
  think of it, there is not even a single singer in the album, whose mother 
  tongue is Telugu. So I guess language issues and pronunciation issues are 
  bound to happen. The singers might be talented (Vijay Prakash or Shreya), 
  but unless they have a language coach, they cant get the diction right. The 
  lyrics as such are not comprehend-able. Even when some lines are 
  comprehend-able, they rendition went for a toss. Sample these:

 

  

 

  1. Noti Muthyaal Jaarneeyakey - It should have been Noti Muthyaalu 
  Jaaraneeyakey. The way it was sung - Muthyaal or jaarneeyakey or 
  Navvrathnaal (it should have been Navvu ratnaalu).. it sounds totally 
  accentized/angliciz ed. Anyone who understands Telugu will cringe and it 
  obstructs the enjoyment

 

   of the song.

 

  

 

  2. Maa Te-Lu-Gu Tha-lli-keee - I was really uncomfortable with the way it 
  was broken.

 

  

 

  Otherwise, I tried hard to understand the lyrics. Jaaved Ali also seemed 
  like a totally wrong choice for that song. His diction was totally 
  un-telugu.

 

  

 

  Among all singers, I think only Chitra knows Telugu (though she is from 

 

  Kerala...), out of experience. Thats quite sad, because it might be an ARR 
  album, but ultimately, it is a Telugu film and One would like to understand 
  what is being sung.

 

  

 

  To sum up, I wish this album came in Tamil(because I dont understand 
  Tamil). Because It is easy to listen to a language that we cannot 
  understand, than to listen to a language we know and still cant follow or 
  rather cringe at the butchering of the language with accents, robbing the 
  whole nativity that is essential.

I completely second Aakarsh to every point he has made including about 
Rajshri's lyrics. This album should have been made in Tamil also, so I can 
avoid listening to the telugu version.

Puli has been a disappointment to me, not music wise and sound wise, but as a 
whole. It's been a curse that I am a telugu, and that and that alone is 
preventing me from enjoying this album completely. Lyrics are a bit trite, 
except for here and there, and the pronuciations kill it further. 

I can appreciate the stylized pronunciations in Power Star song, but in Amma 
Thalle and Maham Maham, the pronunciations rob the song completely, Naresh 
Iyer's and Javed Ali's. I cringe when Javed Ali says Chekumukhi and 
Sashimukhi.. .Karthik has better telugu pronunciation and would have made Amma 
Thalle completely satisfying. Its like making a gourmet biriyani but then using 
sugar instead of salt. It might still be good, have all the beautiful aromas 
and all, but u cannot
 enjoy it to the hilt.

Before excusing the lyrics here saying that this is commercial album, consider 
Premikudu, Gentleman. Along with Roja, Donga Donga and may be one or two other 
albums, these are the only ARR albums I listen to in telugu (the great Rajshri 
was an awesome talent). Everything else its in either Tamil or Hindi, just 
because I dont know those languages. 

In my humble opinion, if these issues are taken care of, most of ARR's songs 
would be of even higher standard, have a longer shelf life etc. Puli being a 
big banner straight release for ARR after a while, these languages issues 
should have been taken care of.

--- In arrahmanfans@ yahoogroups. com, Aakarsh aakarsh...@. .. wrote:

 I think ARR is oblivious about it. Or if he is aware and hoped for 'something 
 different' with words axed like that, then
 honestly, I think it doesn't cut much with listeners. 
 
 Yes, I too never understood 'Muvval Muvval' part in Sivaji. 
 
 I understand if a composer has a penchant for the sound of the lyrics instead 
 of the meaning or the actual lyrics. But it would be nice if that is applied 
 to a word that is new or slang word. Like 'Masakkali'. But it would rob the 
 beauty of language, when lyrics are axed, just to make them sound musically 
 good. Because, how can incomplete words ever sound musical?
 
 Past, Present or Future, be it anytime - A composer can really touch 
 people's hearts provided his music has good lyrics. it is understandable
  that language is a problem for ARR but like I said, the lyric writer or
  language coach for singers should help ARR and tell him that something 
 is not sounding right.
 
 I would like to share a small anecdote, narrated by Gulzar.
 Composer R.D.Burman too was fond of sound of words rather than their meanings. 
Whenever he liked the sound of any word, he used to pick that word and played 
around and made tunes out of that. While composing the songs of Gulzar's film 
Aandhi, when RD came across the word Nasheman, he loved it and insisted on 
using it. He didnt know the meaning and remarked Yeh Nasheman kaunsa Shehar 
Hai yaar. Gulzar used it as Tinkon Ke Nasheman tak, is mod se jaathe hai. 
 
 In short, it would be even more wonderful of sound of the words are given 
 equal priority with diction, pronunciation and meaning.
 
 My all time favourite was Late Rajasri, who wrote lyrics for initial albums 
 of ARR. He wrote them in such a way that we never felt that they were dubbed 
 films. So much of lyrical value and depth in thought, that I never wanted a 
 tamil version of Roja or Donga Donga.

  Ok.a bit a about my language ..



1) The term eat me is being used figuratively and loosely to describe the 
feeling of being overwhelmed and enraptured by that song, esp. since I 
described that song as a monster.

I thought for once I could use a bit of light, colloquial, symbolic language to 
describe a feeling instead always using high, direct English.  



2) The term freaking unbelievable is meant to describe a superlative feeling 
in a good wayjust too good, amazing, mindblowing.  



I thought people would understand these terms in the context of describing a 
song and not misinterpreting and feeling offended or slighted, but perhaps, in 
this PC world we live in, I was overestimating people's high threshold to feel 
offended.

Success meet of Naga Chaitanya's latest movie Ye Maya Chesave was held at 
Prasad Labs on the night of 8 March. ANR, Nagarjuna, Sumanth, Manjula, Sanjay, 
Surender Reddy, Seenu Vytla, Samntha, Krishnudu and Ramesh Prasad attended 
it.Manjula said, “My father is happy for the combination of akkineni and 
ghattamaneni. I am grateful to Nagarjuna for entrusting us with Naga Chaitanya. 
Samantha is angelic. I wanted to work with Gowtam Menon for years. It is 
director’s brilliance that made this movie work. AR Rahman’s music enhanced the 
emotions in the movie.”ANR said, “YMC is a meaningful and fresh movie amidst 
over-sex and over-violent movies. YMC is like a poetry and it will change the 
conception of Telugu movies in the future. I worked for many romantic and 
tragic films in the past. All my tragedies and romantic films had dramatic 
situations. But YMC is completely natural without any dramatization. It’s a 
sensitive movie.”Seenu
 Vytla said, “Some hit flicks take industry backwards and some hits take 
industry forward. YMC belongs to the second category.”Surender Reddy said, “YMC 
has woven magic on me. I had seen only two films thrice in the last seven 
years. These are 3 idiots and YMC.”Sumanth said, “Lots of people are comparing 
it to Geetanjali. Naga Chaitanya was born during the announcement time of 
Geetanjali movie. He used to stop crying when we shown him Geetanjali film when 
he was a kid. There has to be some connection. After watching the movie I 
messaged Chaitanya saying that YMC is going to be his 
Geetanjali.”Nagarjuna said, “I want to thank Manjula and Sanjay for casting 
Naga Chaitanya in YMC. The real heroes of the movie are Gowtam Menon, AR 
Rahman, Manoj and other technicians. It would have been really nice if they 
graced this function. Samantha did extremely well. I will watch YMC again and 
again for Jessie. I was in Kulu Manali when YMC was
 released. Lots of people called me and messaged me that YMC is good. All 
prominent directors called me and appreciated YMC.”Naga Chaitanya said, “I 
started getting tensed after watching the preview of YMC a few days before 
release. We tried something new and it is an out of the box movie. People are 
remembering Karthik and Jessie characters instead of actors. I am very happy 
for that. I want to thank Manjula and Sanjay for giving me this project even 
before the release of Josh. They entrusted me with their faith.”

Honesty is an undermined, undervalued, and an underestimated emotion in telugu 
movies. That, subtlety would often not register with the audience is often 
quoted as the reason for the makers to go with the broad gestures even when 
dealing with the tenderest of feelings. And the amped up dialogues that go with 
the loud tone of the scene automatically makes a mockery of the original 
intentions. While tone-deafness stands on one side of the spectrum, on the 
other side stands artificial, manufactured emotions, that aim less at conveying 
the honesty of the scene and more at spoon-feeding the intentions to the 
audience. While Puri Jagannadh's heroes go for the loudness, Mani Ratnam's, 
answer for the artificiality, when dealing with love. And right in the middle 
of these two extremes, lies honesty. And only a handful of movies - Maro 
Charitra, Geetanjali, Nuvve Kaavali - achieved the perfect balance, where the 
emotions never seem forced and the situations never
 appear contrived, just for the convenience of the story or characters. 
Whatever points of conflict that the characters might have to face along the 
way, are already accepted as the pre-conditions, and the rest of the movie is 
about how they fare, given the hardships. In 'Geetanjali', the terminal illness 
of the lead characters, in 'Maro Charitra', the culture conflict, 'in 'Nuvve 
Kaavali', the friendship-love transition, are all laid out before hand. These 
movies are about how the characters deal with the conditions and come out on 
the other side - successfully, and sometimes, not so. And after very very long 
time, here finally is a telugu movie that honestly deals with love and love 
alone, with a sincerity that is not often seen in telugu movies.One could go as 
far as claiming this movie as a 'never before' in telugu, for the audacity that 
Gautam Menon has taken up, scripting what is essentially a two-character stage 
play, where all that the two roles
 do is nothing but bear open their souls and talk about what it really feels 
like inside and the talk is direct, honest and heart-felt. The characters don't 
just stop at proclaiming their love for each other and start basking in the 
benefits the new found status provides, but they constantly work at - 
break-ups, patch-ups and all - word by word, brick by brick. And the choice of 
rooting the characters in reality becomes a double-edged sword to deal with, 
after the initial eye-fluttering sweet-nothings phase. While it takes away the 
comfort of faux-conflicts that similar love stories take advantage of, it 
offers the benefit of providing a fresh, contemporary, real-world view of how 
today's characters feels about their emotions and obligations, that the rest of 
the world has to contend with too. Here there are no gun-toting, 
weapon-wielding cruel villains to keep the couple in question apart. The 
problems they face are every day life's - age, cultures,
 personalities - and the conversations they have to chip away at them, pertain 
to the same world as the average man. Here problems are not made up or far 
fetched and neither the resolutions, easy and convenient. Menon sets himself up 
with bare-bone issues - culture and personality - and doesn't give himself any 
leeway by making one side evil, and the other noble, and on top of it, focuses 
for much of the movie, solely on the lead couple. There have been movies 
populated with meager characters before ('Yaadein', 'Show', 'Kaun' etc), but 
never before a love story where what works for and against the characters, are 
the characters themselves.This is Menon's movie - Menon, the dialogue writer. 
The screenplay providing just the right platform, Menon unleashes some of the 
most engaging conversations that never feel 'written' and never calling 
attention to themselves. And one particular sequence, lasting a good 10 
minutes, where the heroine for the first time
 reciprocates the hero's feelings, deserves a sound applause. The sequence 
never cuts away, camera stays constantly on the characters faces, while they 
engage in a dialogue that feels real and sincere. And same goes with the 
break-up sequence later in the movie (easily rivaling the benchmark set by the 
hero's profession of love towards the heroine in 'Nuvve Kaavaali'). As the 
movie progresses and the focus grows more and more on the couple, the 
conversations start growing in intensity and delve more into the personalities, 
revealing the underlying complexities of the characters and situations. And the 
challenge to make each and every conversation interesting, and importantly, 
about something, builds with each passing scene and Menon's words grow just as 
interesting. In 'Vettaiyadu Vilayadu' ('Raghavan'), in the first romantic 
interlude between Kamal and Jothika, there is hilarious dialogue, when Kamal 
continues talking to Jothika in quick bursts with not
 enough words

  I came across this very interesting and useful article for beginning 
musicians, so thought I would share it with you all.



The article is an introduction to a free pdf (http://makeuseof. org/garageband) 
about creating music with GarageBand software that comes pre-installed in macs.

http://www.makeuseo f.com/tag/ recording- publishing- music-garageband -pdf/



Music is a part of everyday life. And although not everyone pursues it 
professionally, a lot of people have dreamt of a time playing on stage in a 
world famous band.



But it's the indie era, and musicians no longer need to be backed by the music 
industry to play for the masses. It's a time when anyone with a great idea can 
leap for nirvana.



With Apple's GarageBand, you don't need a recording studio anymore. And 
although it's certainly advised, you don't even need to know how to play any 
instruments! Having a Mac and a feel for the music suffices to launch your own 
project.



We're proud to be able to present our next eBook, Recording Your Next Hit with 
GarageBand, a forty-odd paged free PDF, written by our very own Jeffry Thurana 
(supersubconscious) .



Start off by conceptualizing the song, and take your first steps with the 
GarageBand application. Learn how to use MIDI instruments, or add digital 
loops. Take notice of the different indie publishing `plans', and get ready to 
create your first song, from idea to release.

aspiring musicians.

Rehman scored for a Telugu movie after a very long time.  Goutam Vasudev Menon, 
a class director who makes movies with his heart has come up with an 
interesting title ‘Ye Maya Chesaave’. When looked at its Tamil title 
‘Vinnathandi Varuvaya’, I understood it means ‘vennela daati vastaava’…sounded 
something interesting. At the same time I understood it’s a movie just for a 
set of audiences but not for everyone.I entered the theatre carrying the same 
opinion and also doubted a bit if I fall in that ‘set of audience those may 
like this flick’. I was looking the blank white screen in front of me and the 
censor certificate appeared. Yes, the movie started. The titles started 
rolling…but in a very different fashion where I haven’t seen so far. The taste 
of director is understood for showing creativity even in that minute detail. 
And I didn’t carry away with
 that. I have many experiences of watching many bad movies those started with 
interesting things…After 10-15 minutes, I understood that I’m getting 
disconnected from the narration. I didn’t understand what I was watching. Was 
that a documentary on interstate love? Or a video on Kerala Tourism? Or a 
Malayalam learning class? I also heard some murmurs from back seats. The 
Re-Recording didn’t appeal at all. It sounded like a 10 year old TV serial. 
Every aspect started appearing disappointing and erratic for me.But don’t know 
what magic worked, I have forgotten myself after a while. It’s a saga into 
nostalgia. It’s a journey into feel. It’s an odyssey into a passionate pleasure 
of life. Verdant Kerala, vibrant songs, jubilant age, vigilant father, elegant 
heroine, radiant hero and latent mood started dancing in symphony holding my 
heart strings. That was a blissful moment from then.Samanta…!! The gal is like 
a madrigal. She is gifted with
 poetic features and she has very bright future. Goutam Menon placed her on 
right platform. Her poetic eyes, expressive lips, impressive looks and every 
aspect of her histrionics proved that she is a beauty with talent.Naga 
Chaitanya deserves very good commendations for his portrayal. He has shown 
maturity just in his second movie…Still he needs to grow, but for the role of a 
hero who is two year younger than heroine, he did right justice and none other 
would have grooved in the role so well. However, he must flex his face muscles 
to show the pain and emotion in romantic sequences in his future flicks. His 
dialogue delivery is good and he has a positive body language. This is a mature 
performance from him.Krishnudu did his bit as required, Surekha Vani was 
standard, Sanjay Swarup was okay, Devan didn’t have much to do, Puri Jagannadh 
was natural, the others contributed effectively with their 
performances.Dialogues by Anuradha are very natural and
 clear. There is no drama but truth in every word penned by her. She too has 
bright future as scrip writer.Well, Naga Chitanya plays the role of Karthik and 
Samanta plays Jessie.Karthik (Chaitu) is an engineering pass out whose aim is 
to become a movie maker. His life takes a turn with the arrival of Jesse 
(Samantha), the Christian girl of the landlord Joseph (Devan). It is love at 
first sight for Karthik and despite the age gap and other barriers, he is 
blindly after her. A game of touch me not happens and Jesse says yes to him. 
But what lies in store for Karthik is unexpected and how his life takes a turn 
after that forms the rest of the story.AR Rehman clean bowled every one with 
his songs. Goutam Menon did real ‘maya’!!This is the movie that should be 
watched not with eyes but with nostalgia. This is the movie that should be 
understood not with brains but with hearts. Purely, this movie appeals those 
who have crossed their Graduate studies,
 Engineering studies, MBBS, MCAs and MBAs. This master piece pulls the senses 
of audiences with its magic despite they sit with resistance to get lured. It’s 
the film for class audience those are in the age group 25 ++. The second half 
is better than first half and the magic worked till the last. The last 15 
minutes is very predictable for Telugu audience but still captivating. The 
closing of the film is very convincing and creative. Appearance of Trisha and 
Simbu in last scene attracts attention and boosts up interest.It’s a very 
genuine script and honest attempt. Goutam is so lucky to find producers for 
making a film of this sort without demanding for so-called commercial elements 
which have been the part of 

[arr] One more YMC review, 4/5

jeevi rating: 4/5
Punchline: it's a classic!
Genre: Romance
Type: Straight 
Banner: Indira ProductionsCast: Naga Chaitanya, Samantha, Krishnudu, Sanjay 
Swaroop, Surekha VaniMusic: AR Rahman 
Cinematography: Manoj Paramahamsa 
Editing: Anthony
Lyrics: Anant Sreeram 
Dialogues: Anuradha 
Story - screenplay - director: Gowtam Vasudev Menon
Producer: Sanjay Swaroop 
Release date: 26 February 2010
Theater watched: Prasads multiplex (screen 2), Hyderabad ReviewStory

Karthik (Naga Chaitanya) is an engineering graduate who wants to pursue his 
career as a film director. Samantha is his neighbour and he falls in love with 
her at the very first sight. But there are two catches. One is that she is 
elder to him and the bigger hitch is that she is a Malayali Christian. He 
proposes to her and she slowly falls for his guts and his perseverance. Her 
strict father comes to know about it and settles her marriage. She loves him, 
but can’t hurt her entire family by marrying him. The rest of the story is all 
about how Karthik achieves his passion to become a film director and tastes 
success at the personal front.Artists PerformanceNaga Chaitanya: Naga Chaitanya 
is extremely natural in the role of Karthik. It is basically a conversational 
film with too many tight close-ups. It takes real confidence and acting prowess 
to do such scenes in an authoritative manner. Naga Chaitanya proves that he is 
a brilliant actor with his
 performance in this movie. His dialogue delivery and body language is highly 
authentic. You are not going to believe that this is his second film after 
watching his performance. It’s a top notch effort from him and he will do 
wonders in the future.Samantha: Samantha’s debut is one of the best heroine 
debuts in Telugu cinema. This dusky beauty is highly charming and she is cool 
in acting as well. The minute expressions she gave spoke volumes about her. 
Lots of credit should go to director for etching her beautiful 
characterization. I absolutely loved the voice of the artist who dubbed her. 
She is the same one who dubbed the voice of Sameera Reddy in ‘Surya s/o 
Krishnan’. It’s husky and contemporary.Others: Krishnudu is very good as hero’s 
friend. Sanjay Swaroop (producer and husband of Manjula) did the role of hero’s 
father and he suited it well. Puri Jagan played as himself for a few scenes. 
Trisha and Simbhu (who acted in the Tamil
 version of the same) did a cameo. All other actors are cast appropriately. 
Surekha Vani is very good.Technical departmentsStory: Men are simple and women 
are complex. When it comes to love, man proposes to a woman with plain heart 
and with no complications. Women, on the other hand make simple things 
complicated with their complex behaviour. Gowtam Menon has beautifully explored 
that point and penned a wonderful story of a simple guy who would do anything 
for love and a complex girl who keeps vacillating about taking 
decisions.screenplay - direction: Screenplay of the movie is very good. The 
movie could end at any point after interval. It needs tremendous narrative 
skills and screenplay to make people get interested in the second half because 
the movie can end at the moment hero/heroine converge upon on marriage. I loved 
the love episodes between Surya and Sameera Reddy (train scene) in Surya s/o of 
Krishnan and wondered when he is going to make such
 a story into a full-leangth feature film and Gowtam Menon answered my wish 
with his next movie by filling it full of magical moments and sweet nothings. 
It’s a astonishing work by Gowtam Menon. You can’t separate a moment from the 
movie to be the best. This movie is like a seamless flow of visual poetry.Other 
departments: Music by AR Rehman is awesome. Songs are extremely good and 
background score, rerecording and mixing is perfectly done. All songs are 
picturized extremely well. Cinematography by Manoj Paramahamsa breath-taking. 
The choice of locations and camera work blended seamlessly. Dialogues by 
Anuradha are extremely natural and contemporary. Art direction by Rajeevan is 
superb. Editing my Anthony is flawless. Production values by Indira Productions 
are impeccable.Analysis: I had never seen such a wonderful movie that deals 
with the straightforward nature of a man and complex nature of a woman so 
perfectly. Everybody must have gone through
 these moments in their lives and you are sure to get nostalgic watching some 
moments in this movie. The entire movie is excellent and extremely engaging 
except for 10 minutes (in second half from the breakup to the scene where other 
female proposes him). It takes guts and tremendous conviction makes a movie 
like Ye Maya Chesave from the director, producer and hero (It was Naga 
Chaitanya who set this combination up). All three of them should be appreciated 
for making this movie happen. Ye Maya Chesave movie should do extremely well in 
multiplexes and A centers. I wish/hope/want

Kids, here come nursery rhymes with KatrinaAll Bollywood Regional|Hollywood

By indiaabroad 
Saturday Feb 6 9:40 AMNew Delhi, Feb 6 (IANS) Children might love this. Here 
comes a bunch of English nursery rhymes from Saregama that not only offers 
audio-visual content but also features popular actress Katrina Kaif and some 
musical magic from Oscar-Grammy winner A.R. Rahman's school.'Music engages the 
senses and stimulates the whole mind and body. This venture is a concept that 
will aim to fulfil this need to make learning rhymes a fun and engaging 
experience for the child,' said B.R. Vijayalakshmi, general manager, audio 
visual media of Saregama.'Nursery rhymes are a time-honoured play-and-learn 
method of introducing children to language and rhythm, an engaging way to 
strengthen and identify, differentiate and practise the sounds that are the 
building blocks of language,' Vijayalakshmi told IANS.Titled 'Sunfeast Dream 
Cream Rhymeskool', the album is slated to hit the stores in March and Saregama 
has roped in Katrina to promote it and composer
 Rahman supervise the music.'Adding magic to the mix, Katrina will take the 
children through the lilting rhymes in her own inimitable style in the video. 
Katrina's popularity among kids and her affable style and persona on screen 
made her fit for such a project,' said Vijayalakshmi.'Rahman is the music 
supervisor for this project. The students at KM Music Conservatory, a college 
founded by Rahman, is arranging and composing the music for this album under 
the supervision of the music master,' she added.Saregama is concentrating on 
other languges as well - in the recent past, the label produced animated Tamil 
children's folk songs 'Nila Nila Odiva' sung by Latha Rajnikanth and animated 
Bengali children's rhymes 'Aye Re Aye Tiye', which is a compilation of the 
traditional and most popular children's rhymes.Preeti Sagar's 'Phulwari 
Bachchon Ki' is another animated children's Hindi songs title in the 
pipeline.Vijayalakshmi said : 'Saregama believes that
 learning can be made a lot more fun and effective through the use of vibrant 
multimedia, music and dance. To this effect, the company is launching a series 
of learning-oriented Home EduTainment products that will impact the way 
children learn.'To make the album a hit, Saregama is planning a 360 degree 
media plan to promote the product with heavy penetration across metros.


  

[arr]Telugu Lyricist's AR Rahman Kick

2010-02-05 Thread fani kalyan
http://www.greatandhra.com/ganews/viewnews.php?id=19034cat=1scat=4



 



  







The Chennai Mozart A R Rahman is now no less than an icon in the world of 
international music and working with him would take a lot of stuff. However, 
our Telugu man has got that rare honor and he is none other than the noted 
lyricist Anantha Sriram.Apparently, Anantha Sriram is the single card lyricist 
for the forthcoming venture ‘Em Maya Chesaave’ which has Naga Chaitanya and the 
music is composed by Rahman. It is not often that a single lyricist gets to 
work with the Oscar award winner but Sriram bagged the rare chance.Now, some of 
the senior lyricists are feeling quite envious with the fortune of Sriram and 
all eyes are on how the people will respond to the audio. Given Rahman’s 
schedule, it could take a long time before he would get back to a direct Telugu 
film so that makes it even more special for Anantha Sriram.

It's insane: Rahman after Grammy win

Pics: Rahman's Grammy moment

Special: Beyonce, Pink rock the stage at Grammys

Pics: Best dressed at the Grammys!


'Insane' is how AR Rahman has described his twin Grammy win on his Twitter 
page. Rahman won best compilation soundtrack for a motion picture at the 52nd 
Grammy Awards and 'Jai Ho' won best motion picture song. Rahman shares the 
Grammy with lyricist Gulzar who penned 'Jai Ho' for the film Slumdog 
Millionaire. 


Admitting that he had 'never even dreamt about winning all these awards..', 
Rahman has thanked his well wishers for inspiring him to greater success. And 
all my well wishers from the world who keep me going... Jaiho India...! 


Besides his spiritual Sufi teacher Ameen Peerullah Malik Sahib, 
the music maestro has also expressed his gratitude to Slumdog 
Millionaire director Danny Boyle, the film's creative team and cast. Others who 
find mention in his tweets include sound engineer Resul Pookutty (he won the 
Academy Award for Best Sound Mixing for the film Slumdog Millionaire), lyricist 
Gulzar and 'Jai Ho' singer Sukvinder Singh. 


According to Rahman, he owes his success to a number of people, among them some 
noted personalities from Bollywood and Hollywood. My mentors Maniratnam, 
Shekhar Kapur and Subhash Ghai, and mentor in the west, Andrew Lloyd 
WebberFolks at id-PR, Allison and Courtney, he tweets. 

Rahman has not forgotten his family in the excitement of the moment. y 
extraordinary musicians from Chennai and Mumbai, My mother, My father, my 
Sisters and my lovely wife and children, he writes on his Twitter page. 


Meanwhile Twitter is abuzz with Rahman's latest triumph. Jai Ho Rahman for 
the Grammy!! One more feather in your cap :) tweets 'ananthnaag'. According to 
'deeptinischal' Rahman rocks. And 'Shankarnb @arrahman' tweets that Rahman's 
win symbolises the success of aspirations of every Indian. 


Celebrities are also using the micro-blogging site to congratulate Rahman. 


And to A.R. Rahman...CONGRATULA TIONS!!love the track from couples retreat... 
(Deepika Padukone, actor)

AR rahman goes beyond Slumdog and takes over hollywood ! Two grammies. I will 
send the best tweet to him personally. (Shekhar Kapur, filmmaker)

Morning world.And Congrats a r rahman for winning 2 grammies. Jai ho rahman. 
(Eesha Koppikhar, actor)

Interestingly, the euphoria doesn't stop Shekhar Kapur from touching upon the 
debate that has surrounded Slumdog Millionaire, the film that has brought such 
accolade for Rahman's musical genius. 


Was slumdogmillionaire an indian film. And if not, why not? he tweets.


Jai Ho has won Rahman a number of prestigious international awards including 
two Oscars, the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA), Critics 
Choice Award and the Golden Globe.

  My opinion is It still sounds good.But I feel the use of 'telephonized'

ARR started this first with 'Jill allava' in 'En Swasa Katre'.

E.g. the chorus in Omanna Penne, or Anbil Avan. I think use of technology (as 
against natural vocals) to build the harmony is not working out the way it 
should. Technology driven musical instrument sounds are fine but vocals? nope - 
not working out for me.


IMO - no technology can either emulate or beat the purity in vocals

I was so damn confused the first few times I heard it, not understanding the 
beat in the first few seconds! Figured it out after a couple of listens!


The song starts this way:
bep-beep- beep-beep. ... bep-beep- beep-beep. ..
but you can follow the beat when u start counting from end of this above said 
phrase, where the synth loop starts... (at 0:04)!!

  you guys are right about that. Like your concentration on ARR's music. :)



I feel a voice initiation from the left ear to the right ear within a span of 
less than a second. I mean an effect like somebody singing near to left ear and 
then positioning to both ears. 



I have heard that AR records songs in 7 tracks. So when in CD, it's only two 
tracks and will feel like an abrupt change. Otherwise the change would have 
been gradual. 



Just a guess. Not an expert opinion. 



Still I feel it's hardly noticeable. :)

   I notice a small flaw (I think) in Hosanna. When the singing starts, 
 the audio starts a fraction of a second late in  the right channel. Is this 
 a mistake or something? I bought original CD.

A R Rahman Foundation releases a special Year 2010 CalendarIndiaGlitz [Sunday, 
December 20, 2009]



 

A R Rahman Foundation has released a special calendar for year 2010 in 
association with Worldlight, a subsidiary of Audio Media Education, in aid of 
the A R Rahman Foundation.

The scintilating calender features images of the maestreo and with his quotes 
on universal themes such as Music, Language  Love.A R Rahman Foundation 
strives towards making poverty a history. As a first step towards achieving 
this vision, the foundation will set up educational institutions and provide 
world class, state-of-the- art infrastructure and education to underprivileged 
children who do not have the means to access  fund their education. This will 
equip them with knowledge and skill sets to pursue specialized higher studies 
that will provide them career opportunities to build a secure future for 
themselves and their families.



The A R Rahman Foundation is presently offering free music education to 30 
students from the  corporation schools in Chennai. These students are being 
trained at the K M Music Conservatory by a world class faculty.

The Foundation aims to increase the intake of such students in the coming years 
so that the foundation reaches to as many deserving students as possible..The 
Mozart of Madras said “At the Foundation, we know that there is no better 
investment than that in the education of children.”

Ace  photographer Selva Kumar and the CEO of Audio Media, has captured  
brilliant images of AR Rahman for the special calendar.A moment of giving is 
much greater than a moment of receiving. I am honoured to be associated with 
the A R Rahman Foundation. I believe each one of us should come forward and 
support this initiative.” says Selva Kumar Photographer  CEO, Audio Media 
Education India Pvt. Ltd.

Having seen myself in Pune concert, the state-of-the art and High-tech sound

managed by a professional no-nonsense event management company, it is odd to

Aren't they worried about it ? Isn't anybody doing anything about it ?

I do hope, the Sound Team will finally resolve their glitches and we will see a

But personally I don't like T-series' sound quality and they always failed

They made me more disappointed when I found an error at the end of O...Saya.



SDM was an Hollywood Album and that particular song was Oscar nominated; but 
still these things never made them to re-check the final mastered CD's. Too 
bad of that music company. I wanted to gift the CD's to some of my friends, 
but just because of this issue I felt bad to do so ! It's a small error but 
still... for the audiophiles such issues are pretty big.

One of the reasons for me to appreciate AR's music was the superb quality 
his songs had - i am referring to the 'sound' quality.


Off late, I have felt that his songs were lacking the clarity it had. One of 
the most beautiful songs in a major album this year had an error, which was 
pointed out in this forum  was acknowledged by his team too (not in this 
forum). I am not sure if it is the Sound Engineers or the programmers.


The 'sound'  of Blue in the CD is, in fact, pathetic. It more sounds like a 
studio version (work in progress) - unclear vocals, boomy sounds for chiggy 
wiggy (which is muffling the instrument before Sonu starts singing). The 
vocals are extremely bad


Not sure if it is a problem in the final mix/mastering or a problem @ 
T-Series.


I am disturbed because of this trend, and more worried coz things are not 
being set right. With every album, I have hoped the sound would be 'better'. 
but it has never been. 
Is ARR not looking into the final product? I dont think so, 'coz the beauty 
of the sound is compromised on. 


And I am not in for a debate here.

guys, don't be too closed minded. There is nothing wrong in voicing our view on 
rahman songs. We should accept critics. Criticism is good in a sense that it 
will lead to improvement. Be honest guys. If u don't like a rahman song, just 
say it. At the same time, if u feel rahman gave a big shot in a song, feel free 
to acknowledge him. Let us allow a healthy debate here.

   dumped in, people (producer/ director) shy away from taking risks, doing 
   experimentation, giving freedom to others in doing their work. ARR by 
   nature is a shy and sensitive man, he would sense this that he is

with Blue. What's special about Blue is that it's an underwater adventure. So, 
it was very exciting to do this score as a composer. It's important that you

songs, long back. I also sent him a long mail about my feelings for him. I was 
blown out in happiness, when I happened to receive a response mail from Rahman. 
What a moment. His reply was thanks for your great effort and touching mail... 
god bless you - arr

  1) Which ARR soundtrack surpassed your initial expectations 
the most (you had a certain idea about the music before the release, but once 
you heard the music, you were totally surprised and blown away)?



2) Which ARR soundtrack disappointed you the most (you had certain expectations 
for the music, but when you heard the music initially, you were extremely let 
down)?



For me, number 1 - Delhi 6 (blew me away, way beyond what I expected)

For me, number 2 - Mangal Pandey (it's not a bad soundtrack, just that my 
expectations were too huge)

Re: [arr] Should ARR stop developing BGMs?

2009-08-04 Thread fani kalyan

Oh no, not even in my wildest dreamsSong and BGM 'masters' ???Neways AR is a 
master of both!

On Tue, Aug 4, 2009 at 12:00 PM, V S Rawat vsra...@gmail. com wrote:













 





  I want to understand the connection between songs in a film 
as against 

BGM of a film. Does it, and how does it help in improving the quality of 

the music and/ or the BGM if the same person composes songs as well as 

BGM, or if they are composed by different persons?



Normally, I think, songs-directors are quite busy and a song has to 

sound unique, different from his and others' other songs, songs should 

have instruments and style in tune with the time and place of the movie, 

the lyrics should reflect the psychological profile and social 

background/ religion/ caste/ maturity/ education of the character 

singing them on the screen, so songs in a film, I think, should be 

requiring more efforts, and as they also get sold to public, this 

commercial angle also requires more efforts to be put in the songs to 

make people shell out money.



However, BGMs could be general. Human brains are not so much attuned to 

find similarities between BGMs of two different films, the reason could 

be that BGMs are sadly not sold nor made available to public so almost 

all of us happen to get to hear them only once or twice when we see the 

film and then we tend to forget them. Another drawback could be lack of 

lyrics in BGM. Lyrics in a song act as place marker, an aid to remember 

and repeat music, so when we memorize the lyrics, the song of those 

lyrics gets etched in our brain, but as there are no lyrics in BGM, it 

is mostly hard to memorize the BGM.



Thus, BGM could be general. A BGM director can even prepare a BGM bank 

that he can keep on giving them to different films and people would mind..



So, I think songs and BGMs are quite different area, having quite 

different requirement. Then, how would it help when a songs-master 

creates BGM or when a BGM-master creates song.



In fact, I think a songs-master is more busy so he might not pay more 

attention in creating the BGM for the film so it might reduce the 

quality of the BGM if a songs-master creates them. Or, a songs-master 

might tend to create BGMs as lyrics-less songs, that is, in 

independent, individual patches like he was creating a song for a 

situation but just didn't add lyrics to them.



I want to know whether you think ARR should concentrate on creating 

songs and should leave BGMs to be developed by others, :-) even though 

we love BGMs or any piece of created by our man?

 hi everyone,

  i am again sending my query for the search of double speed songs. i 
 am looking for some double speed songs in south indian languages. but i am 
 not able to find much. i really enjoy listening to songs  which are SUNG at 
 double or more speed . if you people know any song of double speed songs do 
 give me the list. I should make you clear that the singing should be in 
 double speed not just the music only. here are few examples

 

 theekuruvai (kangalil kaidh sei) composed by A R RAHMAN . This song is my 
 utmost favourite. what a speedy complicated song . i just love it . it really 
 amazes me. similarly another A R RAHMAN SONG IS PADAKILLI (yodha)

  its another mind blowing double speed song. in both of these songs singing 
 is done at double speed the music also fast.

 

 i think so you would have got the idea from the examples of what i want. the 
 song could be of any era whether new or old and from any music director  or 
 from any pop album and in any south indian language but it should be in 
 double or more speed.

 

 now i am waiting for the replies and the songs list. ill be very thankful.

 

 regards,

 

 taimur,

  ARR is a master of a lot of things, but notably, the string 
arrangements in his songs.  His genius stroke use of the strings section in his 
songs is such an outstanding quality of his music...often leaving me in awe and 
on cloud 9.  Which songs of his have some of the best string arrangements?



One of my recent favorite string arrangements was from the song Jaane Tu Meri 
Kya Hai sung by Sukhwinder Singh from the movie Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na.  I 
feel this song has been underrated.  It's one of the most brilliantly string 
orchestrated songs of his IMO.  



There are so many, many more songs that I could comment on, but I want to hear 
more about them from the rest of you.

To: arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com

  friends,
 
Had a great time watching the ARR show at Calicut. It was one of the 
breathtaking crowd ever seen. Calicut had its day when ARR blessed them on May 
3rd. Sure, it was a day to remember for us Calicut people.
 
Now coming to the details of the concert, I would like to mention the Plus'es  
Minus'es which I had felt. I am not critising ARR or his fans. This is
just my opinion, so please dont create a controversy here. I also LOVE ARR as 
much you all do. Thanks..
 
Pluses -
 
a) Great crowd, Great visual presentation accompanying each song.
b) Hariharan and Chitra's singing were almost perfect, and they were the real 
stars of the day.
c) Padakaali was a great surprise for all Mallus. It was great singing by 
george/benny.
d) Post interval, the concert's momentum picked up and it was rocking till the 
end. Most fast numbers
    were performed post interval.
e) Humma Humma, with the Carnatic beginning was astounding.
f) Same with Ey Hairathe Aashique.
g) ARR's fathers song which he dedicated.
h) Sanjeev on the Crane and Mustafa after that. It was the highest point of the 
concert. The entire crowd with their mobile lights on was just
   a visual treat to watch.
i) Khwaja was again a mere bliss to watch and hear. Azeem/Rukumani/ Veerapandi 
was a rocker.
 
Minuses -
 
a) Why was ARR not handling the Keyboard? It was so frustrating to see Stephen 
handling it and ARR was just as a mere singer.
 People who have put their hard earned money had to come to watch ARR and 
not Stephen. This was very disappointing.
b) The concert was delayed by 40 mins which led to the downfall of momentum 
which had got built very high at 7 PM.
c) Pre interval - the Songs/performances were very average and some people left 
between 8 and 9 PM.
d) Where was the String section? What was the drummer doing? Was he just 
hitting the drums without knowing which song was playing?
    I felt he was a MERE SPECTATOR like us.
e) Sivamani was heavily missed. Because his presence would have mad the concert 
more interesting and his 20 minute individual performance
   would have been great.
f) Most of the songs had Karoake (i.e. the background track). Only the voices 
were Original. All background music in the songs were ditto from the CD.
   i.e it was not played LIVE.
g) Naveen didn't have much to show his skills. We all know how much he is 
talented.
h) Sadhana Sargam was given 2-3 songs and she was wasted.
i) Only 2 Singers who are widely popular performed in this concert?? Hariharan 
and Chitra. Rest all are from ARR's immediate gang. i.e. who have 
become popular in the last 2-3 years. Where are the other singers? like SPB, 
Srinivas, Naresh, Sujatha, Shreya, Karthik, Sukhwinder etc. 
j) In some songs, only 1 Charanam was performed.
k) Opening song and ARR's intro was not great and it didn't capture the 
audience as expected.
l) ARR's singing was out-of-pitch at times.
m) Hari and Sadhana having a single mike to sing Roja Janeman. I thought it was 
amateurish.
n) At lots of places, lyrics were forgotten, some one was talking on the Mike 
when the song was going on. It wasn't professional.
 
friends, I am repeating that these are my thoughts and please dont take it as a 
offence. I just expected more from this concert. When compared
to his previous Chennai, Delhi concerts, this was a letdown.

  Well, I took a swim in the deep end today -- new  enjoyable waters with a
  familiar diving partner..
 
  The eve started out well -- Kailash  I were hanging out in the studio 
  took a photo for the interview, I got the keys to my flat  then headed to
  the Blue Frog with a couple friends to hear a musician. I wasn't so hip on
  hearing the music, but to hang out with Monica  Randolf  something was
  compelling me to go out.
 
  Well,,, the something was my lucky night, perfectly orchestrated by the
  universe.
  As we entered the club I saw Sammy, AR's driver who joyfully said hello to
  me  told me AR is here. So I inquired  was lead back to the recording
  studios where AR welcomed me with a happy  surprised hello. He introduced
  me to everyone in the room, including Amir Khan – an actor  director in
  Hindi cinema I admire – quality films. They're recording the songs for
  Amir's next film Gajini which comes out next month.
 
  I hung out,, we had dinner  then about 2am AR put a new track up  started
  discussing the lyrics with me  Suzanne, the singer who had previously
  written some lyrics for the track. He sketches out the overall theme  style
   hands me the pad  pen while he goes into studio B to record a singer on
  another track for the film. I wrote new lyrics, pages of couplets - AR
  chooses his favorites, I came up with a new chorus  by 530am we recorded
  the song to completion. That's how I like to do it! Suzanne sang it
  wonderfully – a touch of RB  Indian inflections  pronunciation with nice
  harmonies ! What fun!
 
  I genuinely enjoy working with AR – I love the immediacy of the process, he
  pushes me to be a better writer, we laugh, I grow, I'm challenged  it's
  satisfying.
 
  Thank you Universe for the opportunities, thanks Wendy for taking the
  risks, stepping up to the cliff  leaping – glad the world provided me with
  the ability to fly or plung or whatever metaphor you choose – I like air,
  water, …. Just feels good to be doing it. I'm grateful  desire more! Bring
  it on!!

 Cheers,
 Pradeepan.
