IR New Albums - Old responses (5 Aug 2006)

vijayr, the news about RPO symphony - is it really "news"? Or "gossip"? or "stomach burn syndrome"? or "unfounded allegation"? or "proven allegation"?
Or are you going to explain that the very fact that the question has arise is proof that there is something fishy?

Okay, let me throw in a few unfounded allegations - Kakkai Siraginilae was written by Kannan, that celebrated assistant of Subramania Bharathy, later appropriated by Bharathiyaar as his own creation.
Kannadasan falsely claimed credit for Arthamulla Hindu Madham when really, it was Panchu Arunachalam who wrote it.

It was actually Santosh Sivan who directed Roja but he owed a few crores to Manirathnam and GV at that time so he gave up the credit.

Wait till these allegations spread and some website eventually reproduces it and I will reproduce that link here to prove my allegations.
So much for 'unbiasedness'(heck there is no such word but it suits my purpose here) and objectiveness

Hello !!,

1. RPL is the favourite symphony orchestra of the British Royal family and is patroned by the family, especially the queen. Are they begging for some Ilaiyaraja from TamilNadu to give them MONEY to fill their stomcah !! ?? What nonsense allegations !!?? Sonnaaalum nambumpadiyaa sollanum.

2. Are the musicians of RPL all idiots to sit for hours and rehearse in front of an Indian for Money ??

3. How much money can IR give to RPL ? He himself was in financial toruble before few years.

4. Why did not any other music director in India or Asia try this if it is so easy ??

:shock: Is this the reason why isnt released yet?

:roll: Hope the truth unfolds soon.

"Or are you going to explain that the very fact that the question has arise is proof that there is something fishy? "

rajdes, why should I explain anything?
I dont understand your outburst yet again. I am a reader,and I was just responding to both the news in the link as well as multinamatheyan's post(he kind of endorsed what was there in the link based on the personal reply he received and is a reliable poster here).I just said it was a "surprising news" thats all. The rest is all your imagination. I havent made any accusation or allegation myself nor have I said something is fishy. You seem to be putting words in my mouth everytime.It has appeared in a newspaper, so technically yes its indeed a "news" piece at this point and a surprising one at that.Do I have to investigate and find all the details before even expressing surprise at the news item? I understand that you are frustrated that IR managed to land his name in a few controversies one after another.But your anger seems to be a tad misguided here. As for "unbiasedness" or objectiveness, what has that got to do with this? I never claimed anywhere that I was a symbol of objectivity anyways.Again, as assumption on your part.

and like everyone else, I am hoping that this is a false news item, although the fact that RPO themselves had replied to multi about "Raja approaching them" makes it a little ambiguous.

1 Rs newspaper - do you expect anything reasonable or truth there, specially coming from MK family. You got to be kidding. They start rumour like this just to get their pictures on the news paper. I would honestly use this paper to clean up my dog's shit.

and multinamatheyan post ...
yes IR approached. whats the problem. this is very well known. he wanted to score symphony and approached RPO and the rest is history. IR actually DOES NOT own the copyright. Another "leading" music company owns them. IR in general owns the exclusive copyright for his music. For e.g. as a creator of the music, he is free enough to use the music at any place he want to use, including but not limited to, orchestra, public / private performance, his film music, as bgm for film etc. This "leading" company didnt agree for IR's term and is the reason why they never came to an agreement and hence not released officially.

"Niraikudam Thathumbaathu" - IR is keeping quite because he is "beyond this crap"

#1. Its simple. The entire country is so corrupted and you can blame anyone or any organization as corrupt and we corrupt indians will believe it.

So the most corrupt family giving free stuff to create record sales, be it kungumam or dinakaran, is trying to fill in some pages and the corrupt indian mind will believe it (For those who dont agree that it is the most corrupt/criminal movie, watch Swadesi. The scene where the "villian" remove the mask of CM to let him die is nothing but the death of Annadurai. It all came in papers (and unfortunately we didnt had the internet to carry it along many masses).)

#2. PPl who read this 1 Rs paper will believe so

#3. There will be another article that will say "IR got money by cheating this producer blah blah blah"

#4. Even if you bribe, you need to posses talent and quality. So they would finally post another news some other day that IR is the first and only indian to score symphony.

poor readers - news papers - all over the world - is just a s h i t.

The way I understood the letter that was sent me by RPO was like this:

IR approached RPO with a proposal. The RPO liked the idea and agreed to attach their name to the product.

If the music Raja presented them with was not upto the mark, then they would have declined Raja's proposal.

Like someone said here, RPO is not going to tarnish it's name and reputation for a few lousy rupees.

I know of idiots in Toronto who say that Maniratnam movies are invited to the Toronto film festival because he pays them money. If it is that easy, then we will definitely have Simbu movies palying at festivals around the world.

I just pointed out that these two 'learned gentlemen' did not find out any himalayan truth - it was known already.


Now release the music gosh darn it :evil:

"I just pointed out that these two 'learned gentlemen' did not find out any himalayan truth - it was known already. "

I didnt know that IR approached RPO, the story we have heard was that Sony informed RPO about IR, they listened to HTNI/NBW and they invited him to do it. Thats how it has been so far.Thats why it came a s a surprise. But those 2 guys have also added the money factor to it, which is certainly not known already like you say and which might be entirely their own BS at this point.
