I too liked the rehash of Viziyile in hindi but it also equally makes me uncomfortable when we realize that its an oldie of IR .

Nakeeran sir...neenga marupadiyum padinga...he was requested to remix his old tunes by both RGV and Balki...he had originally wanted to create fresh tunes but balki and RGV were insistent on having the old tunes....nalla padichikittu comments kodunga sir :D

irir123,

Again that review is the ditto of the earlier review in kalingaexpress..:)

I think authors write reviews and sell it to multiple sites.

the possible problem here is that if these albums succeed, and IR gets more chances, then the other directors may all want him to rework his old classics.
However, I personally don't mind that. IR has produced thousands of wonderful melodies, why this gaga over "new melodies"? His re-orchestrations have made these songs good as new. "mandram vantha", "cheeni kum" and "sooni sooni" are sufficiently different to be appreciated as three completely different songs.
With HTNI and NBW, IR redefined "fusion". He is now redefining "remix". On a side note, a real experiment would be if he took a hindi classic (like "chura liya" or "yeh mera dil") and re-orchestrated it - then the hindi folks would realize his mastery over music.

I would be interested to see that..but it also depends on how open the audience are to seeing old hindi classics remixed.

Others remix by adding some techno and classy sounds and add the original pieces here and there as a side track but our thalaivar has reorchestrated,rearranged and still proven that a tune can be made enjoyable in any trend with the proper orchestration :clap:

Any news about his other movies like suryan of malayalam and jai mookamba which is in the pipeline way before anumanaspadam?

i feel the following would be ideal for redoing in Hindi by IR:

1. "Kannan vandhu" from rettai val kuruvi - what amazing real percussion work! with some reworking of the charanam and some synth embellishments in the interludes will be terrific

2."yaarkku yaar yendru" from Ajantha - this song has a Hindi song feel - Udit Narayan rendering it for an Amir Khan or Shar Rukh will be perfect and mite even become popular

thanks! nice to hear this from Balki: "I was convinced that if anybody is doing the music for this film, it would be Ilaiyaraaja. If he says no, there will be no music in the film."

Balki oru vaasagam sonnaalum thiruvasagamaa sollittaar :)

Now we are sure that IR will be the MD for all subsequent projects of Balki.
