sudhakar,
Odysee are dumbest around :) They dont get the supply of newly released albums even after a week and they procure very less nos. of CDs obviously they should've sold out :)
I think I saw the CD's of madhu at music world/spencers when i went to buy vallavan and KD around 15 days back.

balaji, I agree with you on Varma. Varma looks upon Music just as a functional unit to be present. Case in point - Sarkar. He has a host of Telugu movies which betray his lack of interest in songs(which is fine,IMO) or BGM(which is not!). The very appreciation( I think you are back to Anweshana, Sitaara time form) is a back-handed compliment in many ways
1. That(Sitaara) type of music is not what becomes hit these days
2. Surely, Raja's style is far different from his sitaara days - we have countless examples in both Tamil and Telugu from his recent output for this. So I guess this was just Ram Gopal Varma's(read the usual filmy) uninformed way of appreciating Raja: When you want to appreciate a old-timer, just say your recent output is like XYZ, where XYZ is a previous hit of old-timer.
It might really turn out to be good but I wouldnt give a damn to Varma's pronouncements on music(he should rank behind even Yash Chopras and Karan Johars on music sense) - I would rather wait to hear the goods and then decide.
Watched Karthik Raja's interview in indiaglitz.com. He explained about the greatness of IR's symphony. It looks like it is out of the world !!! Unfortunately it was never released.
To a question whether IR provides him valuable advice now and then, KR impudently replied that he wanted to learn all his mistakes of his own and not from IR. He infact wanted IR to desist from giving any tips :)
When asked about his favorite songs, he didnt mention even one IR song in his list. I dont know if they are on good terms with each other.
KR is a lazy AH and IR kicked him out of his house (all because of horoscope, but its working well for KR). Look at the way he answered, he said he dont know the composers and all but he just started telling hte songs he like. On top of that he said, he love to do hindi songs because hindi songs seems to add value to his music (and he also acknowledge two things, 1, he doesnt know hindi, 2, lyrics doesnt matter for good songs). He even said that he doesnt want to be an MD. He just wanted to listen to good music and enjoy. Hmm... Get some ipod and retire man.Quote:

Apart from this, IR also scored music for one more mythological movie, has 11 or 12 songs, all semi-classical type it seems. For RGV Shiva also IR did 2 songs.Quote:
