Which actors ARR has composed for?

[NOV]

I note that Vijay's latest movie is touted as Pepsi Thirupachi!

As for ARR MD'ing for Simbu, I think the time has arrived after his performance in Manmadhan.

I believe ARR has scored music for most of the current crop of leading stars:

Ajit - Kandukondein x 2
Dhanush - ??
Madhavan - Alai Payuthe
Prashanth - Jeans
Surya - Ayutha Ezhuthu
Vikram - ??
Vijay - Udhaya

Aging stars!

Arjun - many
Kamal - many
Rajini - many
Sarathkumar - ??
Sathyaraj - ??
Vijayakanth - ??

[Jambu Paran]

NOV,

ARR has done for Vikram in Puthiya Mannargal,
ARR also done for Satyaraj in Vandi Cholai Chinnarasu...

ARR & VK!..ooh god...please ..i hope that doesn't happen...

[NOV]

But Pudhiya Mannargal was before Vikram became a star?


ARR & VK!..ooh god...please ..i hope that doesn't happen...Why not Paran? Wouldnt that be a challenge? :D

[Jambu Paran]

it would be a real challenge for me to see VK in his colourful body-fitting clothing dances to ARR tune!...
maan didn't we seen enough in tennavan!..VK and Kiran!...2 pandi's dueting!..aiyooo aiyoooo

we are in the age of Trisha, Asin, Pooja etc who looks after their body perfectly....and we also have Mumtaz (tat should be 8th wonder of the world...on how she became Kanavu Panni of TN!), Kiran, abhinayasree and etc...

aiyooo aiyyoo..aiyooda aiyyayyoooo

[NOV]

Did anyone think of VK taking on a fatherly role like present day Vijaya Kumar? ;)

Come to think of it has ARR ever made a song for elderly, besides the raunchy rukkumani rukkumani? :D

[Jambu Paran]

NOV,

ARR made some wonderful tunes for elderly in Anthimantarai...

[NOV]

jambu, vendaam! :D

I dont think anyone sang in AM.

[muzammil84]

Hear those song then tell about am.

[magix]

Idhu thaan vaazhkai enbatha - Pudhiya Mugam

But why wud elders even hafta sing in movies? :) Arent they there jus to cry and occasionally die?

[NOV]

Yes I guess you are right. The trend today is to have a few fights and a few dances; stories play a minimal role in movie making.

For the last few years hooliganism and gangsterism were the key factors in most movies (including maniratnam's!)

Now the trend is to make movies of psychopaths.

Songs have become merely the advertisement tool for movies, rather than being part of the core.

What use have songs for the old men/women in such movies.

[Thiru]

jambu, vendaam! :D

I dont think anyone sang in AM.

Nov, oru naal oru pozhudhu in andhimandharai was based on elderly though it was not sung by old people...
Tajmahal la 'machakani' nnu oru song la theni kunjaramma will be singing (rather talking) in the background throughout..

[Jambu Paran]

NOV,

"I dont think anyone sang in AM."..what u mean saar?
Unni Krishnan sang the song Sakiye nee thaan tunaiye
Oru naal oru poluthu was sung by ...i'm not sure...can anyone help....

in fact Sakiye nee thaan tunaiye is one of VM's wonderful piece of work and ARR's matchable tune...

[NOV]

Paran, I meant what I said. :D
Weren't those songs played in the background?

They were not sung by old folks such as in songs like poongkaatru thirumbumaa or un kannil neer vazhinthaal.

btw, both the songs in AM were very good.

[Jambu Paran]

aiyooo..Old people padina song-na...

Patchai Kiligal Tholodu...Old Kamal sings that...

pothumma

[Jambu Paran]

and..not to forget the song...Kokku Saiva Kokku..the jyothilakshmi portion...

plus...BABA's songs...yellame nambe OLD RAJNI padinuthe thaane!....he he he :)

[NOV]

pOdhum pOdhum paran!

anyone over the age of 30 is old appadinu oru rule pOtta, almost all ARR songs are for old people.

I concede defeat. :D

Is pachai kiligal song mouthed? I dont remember.

[Thiru]

[NOV]

Pls RR, show us how. :D

[magix]

*Awed at the power of the moderator*

Ooooooohhhh!

[NOV]

*Awed at the power of the moderator*

Ooooooohhhh!hehehehe
there are two kinds of power. wait till RR unleashes his other power!

Great split RR.

Let us continue discussion on current actors who have not had the privilege to dance to ARR's music....

[Thiru]

couple of other oldies...
manorama - madras-i suthi pakka poren
manivannan - aalala kanda aadalukku thagappa

[magix]

One guy who's done quite a many films w/ Rahman as the MD without anyone noticing is Vineeth. the sneaky lil devil!

Gentleman (ok, he didnt get a song)
Pudhiya Mugam
May Maadham
Kadhal Desam

(is there more?)

[NOV]

Tell me about top actors and actresses who have yet to experience ARR.

Cant be that Vijaya Kanth and Sathyraj are the only ones?

sathyaraj - vandicholai chinnrasu...

vijaykanth, karthik, sarath are the notable ones..

[Jambu Paran]

6) Alaipayuthe (guest appearance)
7) En Swasa Katrae
8) Engineer (supposedly)
anything i missed out?...

[MADDY]

Hey even Maddy has done quite a lot of movies with ARR(considering he is pretty new to the industry)....
1.Alaipauthey
2.Kannathil Muthamittal
3.Ayutha Ezhuthu
4.Paarthale Paravasam

i heard even minnale was all set for ARR's music but it went to HJ and swades was to be done by Maddy rather than SRK......i think Maddy shuld have been a better choice than SRK for swades.....

[Jambu Paran]

MAddy....obviously the Maddy thingie in swades is wrong...
Ashutosh...waited for Amir for a very long time before Amir rejected the project...then it went to SRK...

why would Ashutosh get Maddy in his Hindi Project...that too after high flying lagaan?...

[magix]

illai Paran.
It really was to be done by Maddy.

AG then figured it wudn't be right to give such a heavy role to a relatively newcomer (in Hindi). So SRK, it was.

[dinesh2002]

yes pa,even Kaake Kaake was suppose to be done by ARRahman,dir goutam once said thta he tried to force ARR to compose for kaake kaake ..but finnaly went to HJ...and im sure u guys know,Kaake Kaake was 1st planed b4 Minnale!!
