ENTHIRAN MUSIC REVIEW
 *Review by : Behindwoods.com*
  Music Director : A.R.Rahman
Vocals : S.P.Balasubramaniam, A.R.Rahman, Khatija Rahman, Vijay Prakash,
Shreya Ghosal, Kash n’ Krissy, Pradeep Vijay, Pravin Mani, Yogi B,
Hariharan, Sadhana Sargam, Benny Dayal, Naresh Iyer, Javed Ali, Chinmayee,
Kirthi Sagathia, Swetha Mohan, Tanvi Shah.
Lyrics : Vairamuthu, Karky, Pa.Vijay
  Produced by Kalanidhi Maran and directed by Shankar, this very costly
movie was filmed at locations around the world. It stars Rajinikanth ( as
Vaseegaran and Chitti) Aiswarya Rai, Danny Dengzongpa and others. This was
the last movie writer Sujatha penned dialogues for. With Sabu Cyril handling
the art department and A.R.Rahman doing the music and background score for
it,( not to mention the special effects and CGI) this film is being eagerly
anticipated by all film buffs.

* Pudhiya Manidha...*
*Vocals:* S.P.Balasubramaniam, A.R.Rahman, Khatija Rahman.
*Lyrics:* Vairamuthu

Excitement, breathlessness and hope all find a
   [image: Endhiran]



  * *place in this song which has synthesized music weaving in and out of it
all through. Almost an ode to Craig Venter, this song! The alternating low
and high pitched rendering serves to add a lot of attention to the
interesting lyrics. What made Vairamuthu write ‘naan naalaiya gnana oli’ and
then go’en thanthai mozhi tamizh allava’ and’en karthaavukku adimai allava’?
it almost negates the impersonal knowledge of the robot! Neat to listen to.
*
Kadhal Anukkal...*
*Vocals:* Vijay Prakash, Shreya Ghosal
*Lyrics:* Vairamuthu

The feathery guitar notes at the start just make you wonder- -yes, Rahman’s
fascination with Bilahari raga continues (remember ‘Omana Penney’ from VTV?)
even here. The repeated use of ‘pa dha sa sa’; ‘ri gaa’ swaras with no
gamaka give the song a nice western touch. The brisk music bit two minutes
into the song that goes’sa pa ma ga ri ri ga pa ga---‘etc; is so delightful
and so is the refrain’Ho baby, ho baby---‘. Sharp youthful lyrics here.
Fleeting touches of Pahadi raga add to the ‘aha!’ effect. Good singing and
possibly fabulous visuals!
*
Irumbile oru Irudhayam...*
*Vocals:* A.R.Rahman, Kash n’ Krissy
*Lyrics:* Karky
*English Lyrics:* Kash n’ Krissy

Intelligent lyrics from Karky- the way ‘neelakkannoram’ and ‘neelappallaale’
combine and the phrases ’naan ennai anaippen’ ‘theymaaname illa kadhal
kondu’ are quite amusing. But the English lyrics are flat. This could be a
tight dance number. By locating this song on the ‘pa’ note of 1-kattai
sruti, Rahman has been able to play around with the ragas Madhyamavathi and
Suddha Danyasi at the same time and still retain its western slant! And such
lighthearted singing from him! This song may take its time to get on to the
charts.

*Chitti Dance Showcase...*
*Vocals:* Pradeep Vijay, Pravin Mani, Yogi B
Additional Programming by Pravin Mani

A small fusion bit with vibrant guitars, wispy flute notes and calm violins
and some fiery ‘konnakkol’. Let us see how the visuals do justice.

*Arima Arima... *
*Vocals:* Hariharan, Sadhana Sargam
Additional vocals by Benny Dayal, Naresh Iyer
*Lyrics:* Vairamuthu

Based on the Kiravani raga, this number has some ‘spillover’ effect from
Rahman’s ‘Usure Pogudhe’ from Raavanan. But a sexy use of trumpets ( sa ga
sa ga---sa ga pa ma ga ri sa at the start with the bigger ‘ma’ swara adding
drama), aggressive vocals from Hari balanced by sweet singing from Sadhana
all make you long for the visuals.

*Kilimanjaro... *
*Vocals:* Javed Ali, Chinmayee
Additional vocal arrangements by Clinton Cerejo
*Lyrics:* Pa.Vijay

Such heady use of percussive instruments here! They add a whole new touch of
gaiety to the song. You can almost feel the hopping of ‘kinnikkozhi’ which
the song refers to. Must be a fantasy number, this, with Shankar’s famed
visual richness. A very taut use of Karaharapriya raga scale. Javed Ali’s
effort deserves mention. Chinmayee sounds naughty. This song is supposed to
have been filmed at the historic Macchu Picchu site in Peru.

*Boom Boom Robo Da... *
*Vocals:* Yogi B, Kirthi Sagathia, Swetha Mohan, Tanvi Shah

Oops! Is that the raga Aboghi that has been given such a modern makeover in
this song? The ‘Robo Da’ bit that goes ‘ri ri dha; ri ri dha’ and the
instrumental bit’ sa ri ri ma ma ga ga ri--- ‘ half a minute into the song
suggest Abogi. The phrases ‘minsara kannano’ ‘autokkaara’ are amusing! Could
find favour with young ones, this song!

*Verdict:*

Yes, it exasperates you when you listen for the first time. But as you
listen again, you realize that though Rahman gives this album a crisp
metallic touch in keeping with the theme of the story, he still remains
faithful to his Carnatic roots in a touching way. Watch how cleverly he
varies the feel of the normal duets and ‘robo-based’ duets. The lyrics are
interesting too. If the listener shakes off his conditioned thinking while
listening to this album, he is in for a treat.

[arr] SIR ANDREW LLOYD WEBBER ON RAHMANIA

2010-07-21 Thread sathishkumar v
The Hindi music channel, B4U Music, will telecast an exclusive interview
with the renowned musical theatre composer Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber. Sir
Andrew Lloyd Webber, the Grammy Award winner, had worked with Oscar winner
AR Rahman on the West End hit music ‘Bombay Dreams’ and hence this show will
be featured in the Rahmania show.

extremely honored to gain the rights to televise the interview with Sir
Andrew Lloyd Webber. In conjunction with our on-air campaign Rahmania, we
are set out to hear from those who have worked closely with A.R. Rahman and
Webber’s work with him on the outstanding musical ‘Bombay Dreams’ is
certainly a major aspect of his musical career and a notable achievement.
B4U Music aims to bring variety to our viewers, so we are certain that all
A.R Rahman and Andrew Lloyd Webber fans will enjoy the interview.”
The interview with Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber will go on air on Thursday 22nd
July 2010 at 7pm on B4U Music.
