I have the Sahara ring tone in my mobile. When some of my co-workers at work heard this (This is the best part. They are not even Indians, 1 is an Armenian and the other is a Chinese), got so hooked up with the flute, that they literally barged into my desk to copy them over to their mobile. Amazing!!! Music transcending borders!!!! The sad part now is I keep looking at my mobile all the time as all 3 have the same ringtone. :lol:
COOOL SHYAM :lol:Quote:

The BGM just flows through out the movie and the swing in mood of the scene is beautifully captured by the BGM....I was like wowwwwww in several scenes... The place where the villain ajith attempts to kill father ajith, the change in the music when sivashankar ajith comes down the steps during his marriage, the climax bgm....... K.S.Ravikumar sure gets ARR to score awesome BGM for his movies.. Padaiyappa was one another classic example.. an ordinary oonjal scene which would have gone as just another scene in any other movie was lifted to soaring heights by the style kings (both Super star and the Super MD)
MIL, it is needless to thank you as you have done what a regular, decent hubber would do, trying to din some sense into the heads of few dimwits here . While I choose to ignore the vermin laden posts of ARR sycophants AANAND and Thineshan, it is up to the moderators to purge these .
But what amuses me to no end is your post Thamizhvaanan. Iam also an audience like u or anybody here expressing my views on the music or movie at the appropriate thread. So where does the question of honesty or dishonesty arise here? Do you think some hard core IRFan is holding a pistol against my head forcing me to write what I wrote? And dunt u presume whoever posts with a pseudonym should be a male :))
guys, i really need to know wats 'poombavaai aambal aamabal, punnaigaiyo mooval mooval'..pls help..Thanks a million
Thumburu,
Thanks I have always enjoyed your post from old days. Your knowledge and music sense have always amazed me. But please dont get angry or for the matter of fact offended by anybody's statement here, they dont know about you, let us leave it at that.
me 2 want to know.... in telugu they too use Ambal Ambal, Muvval Muvval....Quote:

A *soft*, lillie like girl, her smile is like mullai!
thumburu i have already apoligized... i was just angry because no matter how good the music output is, there r always complaints! All those criticisms that u made against music of Sivaji, just tell me who couldve done a better job and I will completely agree with u...
Guys I have just watched SIVAJI! Just mindblowing, my mom wants to see it again!!! She loved everything about the movie. The first half (some of u said is a bit slow), but I think that is one of the reasons why the second half just blows my mind. Fantastic stuff! Hats off to RAJINI (enna styleida saami!, enoruthan puranthu varonum), ARR (emphasizes rajini so much, i mean so much. And the music for suman, makes him seem so dangerous), SHANKAR (imagination at a peak). I have to watch it again. I missed so much stuff. I mean what should i pay attention to? Rajini? The beautiful settings in the songs? The BGM? Shreya? I dont understand!
oh guys this is amazing. I was just sitting here browsing, my window was open. I heard the same beat style song had. The strong catchy bass. I thought ARR used a loop and I am hearing some english songs. But its actually Sivaji songs. Even here its so popular. WOW.
Seems Sivaji all set to run for months and months to come.
I thought Shankar packaged Sivaji extremely well. In my opinion Shamnkar could have scripted Sivaji with action packed story from th e word go like gentle man, Indian or Mudhalvan. Shakar, being the shrewd commercial guy, shocased everything whaan rajni fan goes into a theater for. Comedy and sentiment for the family audience, Masala action for his fans and Punchlines for everyone! Just like Baasha, but a few notches lower. But Baasha is a remake movie ( from hinid and Rajni himself acted as a sibling to Amitabh in the original) so obviously its a fine tuned product.
I guess shankar nor rajni didnt felt like taking a risk experimenting after the Baba and Boys debacle.
To Summarize Rajni Scores 100%, shankar 100%, Sivaji 100%.
Analysing Anniyan and Sivaji I fear we may have lost Indias Best director; ie shankar. Right from Gentleman till Boyz, shankar had a great craft for making social themed movies but in a commercially viable form. Powerful stories complimented by powerful screenplay. If you observe carefully every single frame of his film was carefully crafted, everysingle detail in perfection. Infact just like u notice new things on a rahman song each time u hear it, you observe minutely crafted details in film making from shankar. For this I consider Shankar much superior to Manirathnam. Failure of Boyz and the unprecedented success of anniyan may have lured shankar abandon his crafting skills and turn into a pucca commercial director.
For example look at anniyans story, it makes no sense. But on the other hand despite mudhalvan and indian being fictional it always carried a sense of reality.
I certainly hope this is only a temporary phase of shankar and his next venture is a masterpiece.
i didnt like anniyan that much either... I loved the technicality, but in terms of fun, etc i didnt like it. But sivaji on the other hand is a total mind blower. It may be commercial, but u can see Shankar's touch throughout the movie. Ofcourse Rajini voertakes Shankar, but thats natural. We should be glad that shankar crafted such a script for rajini. I loved the MGR part. gelled in with so well. and the songs, style is prolly the best picturization for a rahman song. in terms of technicality, content, context. all done very nicely.
guys any news on record sales for audio? doesnt indian hold the record for the highest number sold? did sivaji beat that?
What kinda question is this? :lol:Quote:

I thought ARR did a good job with bgm esp during the intro of Rajni..The new rap by blaaze rocks..
blaaze, now has become an integral part of ARR movies..

What a pity?
you guys don't have digestion formula against bad reviews on Sivaji
Sanjeevi,
Sivaji is not the only case
But i still feel Sivaji Songs are top notch and in accordance with the trend and more fresher than any other movie I have recently listened to.
Glad you agree MusicIsLife. :D Honestly, TFM industry is so much fresher with sivaji, its setting a new trend. Especially Style and athiradeeQuote:

Shocked to find this kind of comment in IMDB....
**************
Sivaji was released with such a fanfare that all the TV channels were busy telecasting the madness unleashed by the fans of the hero of this film , Rjanikant. For most of us Tamilians , it is a shame and another painful event. Directed by a joker who knows nothing about good cinema and acted by a 60 year old hero with all his stale antics, there is nothing to be proud about this tamasha. Claimed to be an extravaganza from this director Shankar, who does not have an iota of cinematic aesthetics in his brain , but claims to follow the foot steps of the stone age mythical director Ceci B De Mile. Anyway the hyped up rating here does not tell the truth but the handiwork of the hero's fans. If you see the film after seeing the rating given here, you may never forgive IMDb !

WHAT'S HIS PROBLEM?
Poor guy, He shud've been mentally harrassed during his childhood.
United,
The movie is getting mixed reviews though I agree that the comment posted above looks weird
Here is one more comment in the same site
standard audiences -stay away from this crap, 15 June 2007
4/10
Author: vijil-johnson from India
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0479751/...ments?start=20
this is the worst shankar movie i have seen the film has the worst choreographed stupid fight scenes and an unbelievable car collision scenes in which all the cars colliding with rajni's vehicle are being shown flying like paper pieces. that sequence devastated the entire movie. the songs are not at all beautifully pictured .agreed,costly sets are used ,but it is sheer waste and looks unpleasant to eyes. the timing of the songs is the worst. dialogs are pretty good and the basic plot is also good.comedy at some parts are great,especially involving rajni and vivek.but vivek steals the show. but the picturisation is the worst. shreya has been used as a sex symbol in the movie. so the male audience will be happy. also nayanthara looks so sexy in an item number . by seeing the film it is sure that rajni had directed this caper and shankar was sidelined.
summary:the story had good potential, but the final picture
was a crap.
verdict:only real hardcore rajni fans should see it. for erotic purpose the film is good. standard audiences stay away from it.
prediction : the movie will do good in Tamil nadu as most of the
people go to the movie only to see rajni.
both the comments cud have been from none other than northies :p who got their A$$ kicked by our Thalaivar :D :D
anand, record paneneengala? SPB is truly golden. He always praises Rahman. I dont think that the current MDs give SPB the respect he deserves.Quote:
