Nalla sonnenga rajasaranam, well done 8-)

Hi, I happened to watch an unknown film "IPC 215" yesterday. IR is the MD and there are no songs in this interesting, unique theme [lot of legal arguments] directed by Charuhasan. What can I say about BGM? Simply brilliant. How much life can he infuse with his background music even for a non sentimental, cut and dry movie like IPC 215 !!!

I posted couple of days back in TIS forum to forget TIS, IR and if possible his music as well. I watched AOKK yesterday and I am totally moved by the movie and more than the movie, by BGM.

I heard abt IPC, but never seen it. Where did you saw the movie? Any DVD/VCD available?

Maestro fans,

I also read in today's Deccan Chronicle that Raja is the MD for a movie named "Acharya" starring Vignesh, based on a real life story. The director seems to be an associate of Bala. The lineage continues hence from Balu Mahendra-->Bala--> Acharya director.

Effectively Maestro's non-released movies include:

Kasthoori Man
Acharya
Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
Naan Kadavul (yet to start)
Aadum Koothu

pls add if u know of any other movies. Ths year has been a good one for Raja fans.

Highlights of Maestro IR's live concert

The last part was in Jaya TV last sunday. For dudes in USA and outside India, u can watch the programme in numtv.com.
It is worth it !!!!

The last part had Ilankathu visuthe sung by Tippu, thenral vandhu from Avatharam, ninuko ree varanam, IR's music from Kolangal (Unbelievable and also divine), a sample from TIS, veetukku veetukku etc.

Vivek, RV Udhaykumar, Thyagarajan, Srinivas etc spoke very highly of IR. SPB actually reminisced those good old days when he used to work with IR.

The final beauty was from DRUMS SIVAMANI - his performance for 5 minutes was just out of the world and to add spice to it, he finished it by calling IR as his MUSICAL GURU !!!!

HE infact sang GURU BRAHMA, GURU VISHNU ........

GURU ILAYARAJAVE NAMAHA !!!!

What did Vivek tell..??

So he will pull down IR in front of ARR and then come here to praise IR..??

New movie Acharya

http://www.indiaglitz.com/channels/t...cle/18155.html

most of the speakers were actually using one instrument not seen on stage - jalra. Not much insight came out of them:
Suhasini - I am happy to be a tamizhachi at the time of IR(what does that mean?) - could have consulted hubby for better lines
Bharathiraja - some left-handed compliment referring to IR's garvam.
Kasthoori Raja - candid admission that the movie print used to go into re-recording as Kasthoori Raja film and come out as Ilaiyaraja film - apparently, Kasthoori Raja would have thought something when he made the film and IR used to give a different interpretation to the movie. What on earth made him think that is a compliment? He sure intended that as a compliment :-)
Parthiban - Actually I was wrong. There was a jalra on stage. It was him.
Kamal - araicha maavu about him also being a IR fan just like us and the other araicha maavu about him wanting to be a music director in his growing years in kollywood. Vairamuthukku paarattu nadathinaa, wanted to be a lyricist-nu solluveeru, Lenin-ku paarattu nadathina, basically I was an editor-nu solluveer engalukku theriyaadha :-)

Vivek - cant remember exactly but it went on the lines of "There were jambavans before in TFM we cant deny that but they all came with Classical music knowledge. IR came without that sort of background so he is greatest" type. Not sure I would buy that. Hmm, MSV paarattu vizha-la enna pesararunu paarkanum. Grrr...
Srinivas - was decent. Didnt ching-chak too much. Maybe, that was why he wasnt on stage singing.
Drums Mani - has already been mentioned that he dubbed Raja as Guru Devo and parabrahma for him. This from the same man who said he hadnt learnt much from Raja during his performances for Raja :-)

SP Muthuraman - I worked in 45 of my 75 movies with Raja. Yeah, sure. Thats the greatest compliment for IR ever ;-)

SPB - mother of all compliments - he considers himself along with SJ, KJY and KSC, lucky to have been in his peak around the time of Raja's compositional peak. I doubt that. As a singer, you get very little flexibility with Raja - I am sure he would have enjoyed his period with MSV and compatriots better. Adhai inge solluvaara enna? Again, MSV paarattu vizha-la enna solraarunu paarkalam.

Basically, such compliments dont mean much to me. People put on a mask and give the greatest tag to the current person being celebrated.They dont stop there. They make comparitive statements and say "IR did this. Earlier people used to do that. So IR Is great". Same person would have said in the celebration for the previous person "PP does that. Others do this . So PP's great" ;-)

can anybody tell me where i cud download the song "naan porandhu vandhadhu" from "mayabazar 1995".
