Re: [arr] Why CWG Theme Song was also not in English Version ???

[shahul_555]

Hindi is not India's national language.. It is one of the official languages 
along with English but Hindi being the primary and the latter the secondary.. 
Below is one of the many sources..

Re: [arr] REMEBER MAARICHAM (JOK) ??

[shahul_555]

I was not much impressed by Maaricham and Machakaari of JOK/SOK. Or may be they 
are not of my type of liking. Except for the portion where the husky female 
voice calls 'Gowtham Gowtham' it didnt really hook me. Apart from the hot favs. 
Munbe Vaa and Newyork nagaram, I loved the title track by Tanvi for the Jazz 
and Tanvi's varied singing.

Though its off-topic, I have always felt Newyork nagaram could have been 
picturized much better. Surya doesnt do full justice to the song. I expected 
pain and agony to be emoted on screen as the song itself is for the situation 
where the hero is away from the heroine. But the video shows Surya singing the 
song with gentle smile throughout sporting designer costumes. I feel Madhavan 
would have done a better job. For instance in the film 'Minnale' he had done a 
commendable job in the song 'Venmadhi venmadhi nillu' and also in the song 
'Yevano oruvan' from 'Alaipayuthey'.
