I was one of those repeated audiences of the flopped movies at BO that
was composed by ARR... just for his great songs and BGMs.

I suggest we can do the same thing under AR Rahman Foundation. There is
already a wheel.. why to invent another?

Gopal, When i was going through the old messages in this group, i came
across the collection that you did for ARR Foundation and gave him the
cheque on his birthday. Why didn't you continue that? Did you do that
just for one year? Any reason for dropping that idea?

[arr] Re: " DONT ABUSE MUSICIANS AND MUSIC" - ARR - Request to Moderators

[sath.murthy]

I agree on this message from ARR.

But, as far as to my knowlegdge the members of this group or any ARR
fans mostly don't indulge in abusing others MD's music. We even
criticize / analyze our own ARR's music. We do the same in others music
too, but i strongly believe that we never abused anyone.

I am being one of those hardcore ARR fan from his Roja days, i always
told my friends never to compare between ARR and IR. They are totally in
two different genres and set two different trends. If IR took the tamil
music into each and every corner of Tamilnadu, ARR took his music to
each and every corner of India first, now he is taking it to all over
the world.

I really don't know whether ARR read any of those abusing messages from
this forum or heard from anyone. Hopefully Vijay or Gopal can explain
ARR that we never encouraged the abuses in this great yahoogroup.

Jai Ho

Sath.

Re: [arr] Who is composing for ‘Thalaivan Irukkinran’?

[sath.murthy]

Have anyone of you seen A Wednesday? is there any scope for songs? From
what i see, the movie is like a thriller and wont have scope for songs,
but will have great scope for BGMs.

I guess it will be by ARR, if this movie's time has been replaced by
Marmayogi...

whatever he does is so good. Selecting a few good ones as his best is
something like ‘searching for a needle in a stack of
needles’, to borrow a line from Saving Private Ryan. Initially,
the intention was to make a list of Rahman’s top 10, but it ended
up in 15 and could well have gone up to 25 had it not been for some
ruthless decisions, which could be taken only by one with a strong
heart. So, here are the top 15 albums, not necessarily his best musical
scores, but landmark albums that have helped build ‘brand
Rahman’ into the global phenomenon that he is now.

minutes without coming across ‘Sa Re Ga Me’ or
‘Maaro Maaro’. The album had tremendous energy and

[arr] Does Gulzar get a Oscar Statue award too?

[sath.murthy]

When they mentioned the winner of the original song. they said that
Winner is jai ho - AR Rahman and Gulzar. does that mean will Gulzar get
a oscar award too? if so, why wasn't  he invited to the ceremony?

Thanks

Sath.

[arr] ARR speech

[sath.murthy]

ARR did mention about Gulzar, Raqeeb alam, Blaaze.. but curiously no
mention about Sukhwinder singh.. Hope everything is all right between
them

Just curious and concerned..

Sath.

[arr] Re: Delhi-6 - Thumbs Down - Taran gets it right most of the time

[sath.murthy]

I totally agree with you Pavan. He is almost 95% accurate about the BO
status of any hind movie. Taran wrote that Ghajini will break all the
previous BO records and we all saw that it did.

I remember he was wrong on other time.. i guess it was for Mangal Pandey
where he gave almost 4 stars (i think) and said that movie will do good.
but it bombed at the BO.

As i said earlier.. he is very good in analysing the BO performance of
any Hindi movie.

[arr] Re: Gowtham Menon watches Dilli6 in Chennai

Vithur,

In Junior Vikatan latest issue, i read that VTV is the modified version
of COM. It goes on to say that COM is dropped. Did GM for sure mentioned
that COM will see the light in future. I always thought that COM and VTV
are totally different movies.. as COM has like 4 male leads and 2 female
leads (Trisha and Nikitha). but now this news is totally contradicting.

Can anyone confirm about the status of COM please...

The trend continues. Like most of the times, whenever the music by ARR
becomes such a big blockbuster hit, the movie falters, and it falters
big time. I couldn't believe that Rakeysh also fallen like this with a
bad screenplay.

ARR composed gems for this movie, but now the film has been declared a
disaster. after Yuvaraaj, now its Delhi-6.

Aadhavan was supposed to be ARR when the movie first got materialized..
but i guess the busy schedule of ARR made him to stay away from that
project.

Amjath,

You expressed the same feelings that i get whenever i see a movie ad on
the net nowadays.

In my days in India, i used to go to tea shop in the morning (while i
was staying in chennai)  and go through the dailythanthi paper for the
new movie ads... when i see our ARR name with any movie, it made me so
happy and i will keep on seeing that ad whenever i get a chance.

I dont know how to express those in words... lol

[sath.murthy]

This was one combination that i have been waiting for it to happen.
Suppose to be COM first, now its VTV.

  ARR and GM will sure rock the music world.

As soon as the VTV ads got released i was so sure that it will have
music by none other than ARR, because GM said he will be working with
ARR in all of his future movies (until and unless the time doesn't
permit ARR from doing GM films).

All these sour grapes should be happy, that they are getting the media's

Re: [arr] A.R.Murugadoss to do Ajith's 50th film

[sath.murthy]

As we all know that they both created a blockbuster in the boxoffice and
the film broke all the previous bollywood records.

Guzarish, Bekha, Kaise all are wonderful songs. Out of 5 , 3  are great.
what more do we want?

What happened to Sakarakatti, that had great songs but flopped in BO.

ARR had and still having more flops in the BO even though the songs were
beautiful, but failed just because of the narration and screenplay by
the directors. Murugadoss did a perfect screenplay that appealed to the
masses.

Yuvaraaj had some mesmerizing numbers by ARR, but. movie flopped,
songs didn't reach the normal people other than ARR fans like us.

I can go on and on with this kind of list.

[arr] AMMA songs by ARR

[sath.murthy]

I love the "AMMA Songs" composed by ARR like :

Udalum Neeye Uyirum Neeye in Pavithra

Ennatha Ponnatha in Uzhavan

Kalayil thinamum in New

  Theeyil vizhuntha thena in Varalaru

I know there is more. Please add them to this list.

Re: [arr] Priyadarshan pans Slumdog

[sath.murthy]

Dont worry, pretty soon the same Priyadarshan will remake the SDM movie
in malayalam or in other languages where the SDM was not dubbed or
released.

He is the one who wasted ARR's wonderful compositions in hindi film Doli
Saja Ke Rakna (remake of tamil blockbuster kadaluku mariyathai)  before
the same songs were brilliantly used by Praveenkanth in tamil film Jodi
that became an instant hit.

Good one Gopal. Waiting for the site to be updated.

We hope and pray the oscar that is away from ARR in the message to fans
will be in his hand (couple of them actually) in a month's time.

Gopal, i got a question. what happened to www.rahmanonline.com

That use to be my first favorite site when i came to US around May 2000.
for some reason i loved that site, lots and lots of info and updates
were on it. I used to enjoy those messages, archives and articles posted
by you. All of a sudden the site went offline. Then i found your name

"It's unbelievable. We've got 10 nominations and three are
extraordinarily special because they are for A R Rahman who is not here
because he's working on Dilli 6 in Chennai right now," said Danny Boyle

Can you believe this? What a dedication by ARR towards his music. No one

That is good combo. Mysskin movies are different. Anjaathey was a
beautiful film.

But the problem is how many songs is he gonna use in Mugamudi. In his
recent movie nandhala he got 5 songs from Illayaraja but used only 2 of
them.

It is very happy to see ARR signing more films with different directors.
I have a feeling since his quickie SDM that became a international hit
had been composed in less than month changed ARR's approach to sign more
movies.

[arr] Re: Is this song a deleted song from the Movie ?

[sath.murthy]

Dear Vithur,

Yes, i guess the song One rendu moonuda was in the Audio cassette. I
bought that audio cassette when it got released, i even saw the movie in
the theatre I guess i still have that ACD at my hometown.

If you need it badly, i can ask them to ship it out to you. I had a the
great collection of ARR's audio cassettes from his first movie Roja till
i came to USA. I hope my parents has all those with them still. I can
check it out and can get all those to you.

Please let me know.

[arr] Uyirum Neeye... from Pavithra - Moving song and composition by ARR

[sath.murthy]

Hello Friends,

Yesterday on Sun TV's Athiradi Singer program, a guy sung the Uyirum
neeye, Udalum neeye song from the film Pavithra (Rathika, Vineeth,
Nasser Starrer). While the audience were hearing the song, some of them
literally shed tears and the contestent (Srinivas Ragunathan) got a
standing ovation at the end.

I am hearing this song after a very long time WOW.. what a
composition by thalaivar ARR. The lyrics by Vairamuthu, voice by
Unnikrishnan, excellent and mellow music by ARR just takes the song to
the highest level.  I was so moved when i heard this song, i stood up
and gave a salute to this masterpiece by ARR.

If i am correct, i also remember the song getting national award either
for lyrics or voice or music.

I love the other "AMMA Songs" composed by ARR like Ennatha Ponnatha in
film Uzhavan, Kalayil thinamum in New, Theeyil vizhuntha thena in
Varalaru.

Just wanted to share my feelings..

Vithur,

How did the FD go on sunday, do you take pictures of those events..  If
so, please post them if you can...Wish i can be a part of those events
too.. Hope to meet the fellow rahmaniacs when i come to India in a few
years time.

C u all soon guys,

Sath.

Rahman has composed a song, which is a rip-off of the infamous Choli ke

[arr] Gentleman BGM used in Kilaku cheemaiyele song intro

[sath.murthy]

Dear friends,

Please observe the Gentleman BGM on the below link ... Part 3 from 5:36
till 5:47

http://tamilmoviewaves.blogspot.com/2008/07/gentleman-tamil-movie-watch-\
online.html
<http://tamilmoviewaves.blogspot.com/2008/07/gentleman-tamil-movie-watch\
-online.html>

and then listen to the starting intro music of Manutha manthayile from
Kilaku cheemaiyele...

http://www.raaga.com/channels/tamil/moviedetail.asp?mid=T085
<http://www.raaga.com/channels/tamil/moviedetail.asp?mid=T085>

Both sounds so similar. KC came after GM.

Vithur,

I was asking you for that sequence to make sure i was right. i observed
this when i saw the GM movie long back. I just wanted to mention it
here. Please don't take extra trouble in ripping the BGM from the DVD.

Thanks

Sath.

[arr] Re: ARR's another hard work wasted in sakkarakatii

[sath.murthy]

Gomzy,

I seriously think that the private albums are a good option. i also
beleive that all the debut directors those come to ARR thinks that only
his music will make their movie become a hit and they forget about their
work in regards to the story and screenplay, but the other debut
directors who goes to other MD's think that they got to work hard on
their story and screenplay and also they know that the music only gonna
second them.

Hope the Connections album (mentioned in arrahman.com) satisfies all
sincere ARR fans like us and other people too.

Pawan,

Dont u agree that chikku bukku in GM, muqabla in Kadalan, athiradee in
sivaji, alaipayuthey, minsara kanavu, KK songs are the some of the great
experiments that ARR did in those mani, shankar and menon movies? ARR
always experiments in each and every composition of him, that is what
makes all rahmaniacs so happy and excited whenever  his album or movie
gets released. I dont think that the big directors tangle ARR, and i
strongly believe each and every director works with him, want ARR to do
lot of experiments in their movie's songs respectively.

Vithur,

Did you get my request for the Gentleman BGM for the palani temple
sequence  please?

Waiting for it

Sath.

[arr] Re: A Fight Scene having AR 's voice as BGM-Vithur--need Gentleman BGM

[sath.murthy]

Vithur,

Do you have BGM of Gentleman? particularly the BGM for the Palani temple
scene where Saranraj tries to catch Arjun, then he ends up shaving his
head. If i remember correctly, that particular BGM has been (re)used in
the starting portion of Manutha Manthaiyela song in movie Kilaku
cheemaiyele..

Hope i am right about this.

[arr] Re: ARR's another hard work wasted in sakkarakatii

[sath.murthy]

Sundar,

U r absolutely right, Even when i tell some of my friends, my mom or my
wife that ARR is gonna do music for this film, they immediatly say, it
is gonna be dud in BO. i even end up fighting with them. But deep inside
i also have a fear that the film may bomb at BO. All i am saying is that
ARR should carefully choose his movies based on the story and screenplay
and the directors with great view. as you said, that ARR hit movies list
is very very small when compared to his flops. He should not accept the
movies just becoz that they are big names or some relatives to big
names. Jothikrishna (son of AM Ratnam) and now Kalaprabu (son of Thanu)
are examples to this. they got ARR thru their dads but didnt make use of
his great scores.

I guess, whenever the director or producer get ARR for their movies,
they think that they achieved everything and movie is sure gonna be a
hit just becoz his name is there. that is not right. people will love
his music, but may reject the movie outright if there is no story or
screenplay. i even read in some reivews of SK that the director is
getting booed at the end of the movie. if the director puts half of the
hardwork of what ARR does, the movie will become sure hit.

Dir Ameer recently wondered that why ARR  is not doing music for some
low budgeted movies? just think if ARR has done music for recent hits
like Subramaniapuram, paruthi veeran, pattiyal, billa (new). Kangal
erandal song from SP has become a great hit after the film got released
and turned out to be a blockbuster just becoz of its screenplay and
treatment by Dir Sasikumar. People first saw the movie, got hooked up by
its presentation, then they appreciated its music and the song kangal
erandal

When i was driving today, i was listening to the great score of SK on my
truck's CD player, and i couldn't control my disappointment and anger
against dir kalaprabu for not using it to the core.

I watched the movie Enswasa Kaatre for 3 times  just for ARR songs and
BGM, even thou it is a dud. i still remember the boos that the movie got
in the theatres. Dir Ravi did this one and Mr. Romeo with ARR. Both of
them bombed at BO on the first day first show.

I still cant't believe how come Dir Bagyaraj, producer Dhanu couldn't
find the flaws of SK when it is being made. I read the first review by
Gops or Vijay saying  immediately that the movie will bomb just after
watching it for one time in the premier show. if we have the pulse to
rate the movie is gonna be a hit or dud on the first show, how come the
big guns like bagyaraj, dhanu and even ARR (when he did the BGM)
couldn't identify that.

I hope my friend here will sure understand that i am not saying anything
against our thalaivar ARR, but i m just expressing my views, concerns
and disappointments.

See you all soon

Sath.

Re: [arr] Ajith-Gautham menon team up

[sath.murthy]

If we accept Sridhar, Mahendran, Balumahendra, Balachandar,
Bharathiraja, Maniratnam and Shankar as trendsetters then we shuld
gladly accept Gautam as a trendsetter too. Till date i have never seen a
film in tamil like Kaaka Kaaka. It just belonged there closer to the
Hollywood movies. the camera, music, editing everything was perfect to a
T. Even though the movie had traces of the Hollywood movie Seven (By
David Fincher), KK is still a great movie. Each and everyone of our big
directors get inspired from the hollywood movies.

If Harris Uyirin Uyire got the people to theatres, its Gautam's
screenplay, story, technical aspects made the movie to become a
blockbuster and got the repeated audiences for the film and Gautam also
helped Harris other songs in the movie to become a great hit. that's
what i expect from the directors who work with ARR.

I hope COM can justify that, and also pray deeply that it wont be a
PKMC.

Sath.

[arr] Re: ARR's another hard work wasted in sakkarakatii

[sath.murthy]

Vithur / Mahima

i understand your point, when i mentioned that "ARR's hard work wasted"
i meant that it got wasted by the director kalaprabu or other directors,
by not using it properly. i didnt mean anyother way. Hope Vithur
understand my view too. If the dir used it, then he would have had a
great feature and got films from other producers too. now he has to rely
on his Dad Dhanu again. Even Uyire and SOK won filmfare awards to ARR,
in future those movies will always be remembered as one of those flop
movies.

Whenever the movie with ARR releases, i eagerly wait for the first
review of the movie and i will go directly to the last part (conclusion)
or the rating, and when i find its gonna bomb or fail at BO, i feel
totally disappointed and i feel this been happening a lot lately with
ARR related movies.

As fans of ARR we will always treasure his songs and BGM's all our life,
but the other normal people (Non ARR fans) will remember the songs only
if the movies becomes a hit or blocbuster.

Sath.

[arr] Ajith-Gautham menon team up

How come Gautam didnt offer his next film "Surangani" with Ajith to ARR?
he has give it to Harris.

I love to see Gautam works with ARR more.. he offered COM to ARR not his
future ones...

Sath.

[arr] ARR's another hard work wasted in sakkarakatii

[sath.murthy]

This has been the nth time that ARR's brilliant score has been wasted by
the directors. i am talking about the sweet cube here
How many times will this happen? ARR spends so much time in creating
such wonderful music and songs, but the movies doesn't match upto it.
ARR should be careful in choosing the movies hereafter, i personally
think he should give much priority to the storyline than the big names
and producers. I guess Harris has few failures compared to ARR so far
because of that.
Each and every review i read so far about the sakarakatti has been bad,
they all agree that only good thing in that movie is the music and BGM.
I couldnt control my disappointment when i read the reviews of the sweet
cube. The movie has been hyped up so much but fell flat on its first
show.
The reviews also say that kadalil vilunthen is far better than SK. Now
Nakka Mukka will overtake Taxi Taxi and Marudhanni just because of their
respective storylines.

Can you guys please throw in some movies name that bombed at the box
office even though they had beautiful music by ARR.
I remember the following:
Kangalal Kaithu Sei
Kadhal Virus
Boys (to an extent)
ATM
Baba
Duet
E20U18
En Swasa kaatre
SOK
Paarthale Paravasam
Rhythm
Tajmahal
Udhaya
Uyire

If you see the above list, it even includes the big stalwarts like
Maniratnam, Shankar, Kathir, Bharathiraja.
I have mentioned only the tamil movies, there is a big list in HINDI
too. Please throw in some names that matches the above category.

Whenever ARR music release i am so happy and when i come to know that
film bombed at the BO because of the story or screenplay, it makes me so
sick.
I couldnt find proper words to let out my disappointment.

Thanks

[arr] What happened to Ajith's Kangeyan????????

[sath.murthy]

Hi Friends,

I remember that i read an article sometime back regarding a movie of
Ajith after his varalaru was released.

It was supposed to be directed by KS Ravikumar, produced by Nic arts SS
Chakaravarthy. The ad mentioned that ARRahman has been roped in for
music and Vairamuthu for lyrics. it has also been mentioned that Ajith
will do four roles?

Does anyone know what happend to that project???

Maybe either Gops or Vijay can answer this. Hope this is also not one of
those many projects of ARR that got shelved

I googled for it and there was a home page too for this movie. the still
of ajith was rocking.

Anyone who knows the status of this please reply.

[arr] Re: Kavignar Vaali's poem on A.R Rahman!! ( This is an Old one... for the benefit of new members )

[sath.murthy]

As a coincidence, this poem written by Vaali also starts with letter M
in english and "ma" varisi in tamil.

Muqala, Munbe vaa, munnal munnal vada, marudhani were some of the songs
written by Vaali under ARR's music which were all massive hits. Even
Vaali mentioned in one of his interviews about his sentiment of writing
the songs for ARR starting with letter M, that turned out to be hits.

[arr] Re: Rahman keen on ode to Thirukkural

[sath.murthy]

http://kumudam.com/magazine/Kumudam/2008-07-30/pg8.php


According to Rahman answers to fan's questions in Kumudam, Weekly Tamil
magazine, he is just gonna produce the album  based on Thirukural and
not going to do any music.

He also mentioned that Singer Blaaze is going to sing in carnatic base
tamil music, then it is going to be converted into english rap.

The question and answer on the above link confirms that.
