Like most of us on this forum, I was waiting for AR Rahman's Godfather with great impatience. We can't get enough of his music, and when Godfather FINALLY came out today, the excitement was immediate. Seeing the previews and trailers is one thing, but listening to the music up close and personal is an entirely different matter. This movie has suffered from endless delays largely due to financial problems. Release date after release date came and went, but no soundtrack. But here we are, February 17, 2006.....with the pleasure of unwrapping another gift from our beloved Rahman.....the soundtrack for GODFATHER.
Rahman has been criticized for abandoning the Tamil audience. I think his fans in the South will be pleased with his latest offering. My first impression was that it certainly had a Tamil flavor, and Rahman is certaining trying to please the masses with this soundtrack. "Ilamai" and its remix will be instant hits, with fast-paced beats and an infectious hook. Innisai and the 'remix' have a heavy Carnatic feel to them. Katril Oru Vaarthai is a midpaced track that doesn't take many chances, but is catchy all the same. Thotapuram sounds like 'old school' Rahman and is a song that targets the TN audience. All in all a welcome addition to the Rahman library of soundtracks. Like most of his work, one gets to appreciate and enjoy it even more upon subsequent listenings. After a wonderful Rang De Basanti, Rahman satisifies his fans and the masses with another fine soundtrack. -Bh Explore, Experience, Enjoy A.R.Rahman - The Man, The Music, The Magic.
