Another problem is that some songs might be placed in totally unnecessary or unusual part of the movie and thereby weakening the whole impact of the song. The first time I saw Kannathil Muthamital, I was shocked when Vezhai Pookal was played in the background when Nanditha and other Srilankan Tamils are stuck in a storm during their journey from Srilanka to Tamil Nadu. I was imagining a totally different place for the this wonderful song. Also only part of the song was played. I agree that wrong placement would reduce (rather undermine) the impact of the song. Still, listeners and viewers have an inherent curiosity as to where the song could have been there in the film. If that curiosity gets satisfied, that is a big relief for us all. In Bose, that sweetest bengali mukhda lullaby was shown only mukhda two lines in film, that did not satisfy us fully, but it still satisfied our curiosity about where a lullaby could have been in a film based on a revolutionary leader. So, we will always be wondering for our entire lives where thayya thayya could have been in Dil Se. I so often thought and couldn't find any situation in the film where such a deep emotional earthly explicit song could have been put among the mostly deeply philosophical rest of the songs of the movie. (just to share, I even wrote a film story in which I created a perfect situation to use Thayya Thayya song, so perfect as it would make one feel that the song was originally created for this very situation. Now, whenever I hear of think of that song, I imagine the situation in my story, and the enjoyment increased manifold. :-) ) Similar feeling for Yaar Mila Tha Mujhko in blue, I couldn't think of any situation when such a simpler, low profile song could be there in other highly technical, full of audio effect songs. Of course, they can just put some music part of the song play in the background so that the song is not underused and then when the full song is released in some other film, we could recognize it from the background that it could have been the song for that situation. But overall, we need to be thankful to Maniratnam Sir. No other director has given so much life and visual treatment to ARR sir's songs. How can we forget songs from Alai Payudey or Dil Se, which were pure visual treat ? Mani Sir's visualization took these songs all together to a different level. Maniratnam and ARR is always a rare-combination. Great combo they indeed are, but it does not lessen the unanimous feeling of being depraved among all of us fan on Mani not putting songs in film, songs that have to be great because the combo gives great songs and visuals, and not one but THREE songs, my god.

He didn't put thayya thayya in dil de. that was the smallest song of the album, just one stanza, how long was it? 3 min? 4 min? and how can he couldn't find a 5 min slot for such a great song in his film? He could have shown at least the location where he wanted to put this song, the way Bose had just first two lines of that female lori. I think Mani doesn't take ARR's music seriously if he wastes 3 songs of ARR. -- Rawat On 5/14/2010 11:16 PM India Time, _AJ_ wrote: So, there you go...those who are complaining of Raavan's music, keep these 2 things in mind from this ARR interview: 1) Mani is the boss 2) It's not about having done a great song or having worked hard on the music.
