Maestro ilaiyaraaja news & titbits

thank you Kamesh.

marudhanayagam song was great.. sounds like a siddhar type song Raja sir composed earlier like

Singara seemaiyile (Marudhu Pandi)
Kadha kelu (Karimettu karuvayan)
kadha kelu (Michal madhana kamarajan)
Appanendrum (Guna)
etc etc..

Jokes apart, using your contacts, can you check out what it would take for Arya to release the music of 'Padithurai'? I think Suka has tried his best to get the music released but no response from Arya's side. As Aakarsh says, everyone is looking forward to the music. It will make a great decision if those fellows release the music, given that there is so much hype around NEP.

I too feel that the hype around NEPV could generate the much needed heat for Padithurai to see the sunshine of the day

There was the hungary recording shown and Raaja sir mentioned it is supposed to be sung by Yuvan . It was terrific . Wondering which movie it is ?

No big deal My point is - "why have a two classes of people - "Normal" and "premium" - with Rs.1500 and Rs.5000". Why not have just one class - and even if its Rs.5000, thats alright. But this clause of "Pay 5000 and directly go to 2nd round" is not the right method, in my opinion! Lets not divert this into "Making money" issue. Its the method of making money that, I think, is not right. Having this clause is no different from corruption! to be frank, I didnt like the concept of "Pay 10000 for conclave ticket and lunch with raaja" also. Its commoditisation. But then... that happens with lot of celebs.. so i guess thats ok (assuming that the money is going for some charity or something like that). Also, thats not that big an issue.. atleast as compared to this "Premium class" and "Normal Class".

Just my thoughts!

You are right, moreover I think any contest or audition, with a entry fee may attract some law regarding lottery.

Why should IR try to converse in English when he is not at all comfortable with that? I felt IR could not convey many things he had in his mind in this interview. He was not spontaneous and many things looked laboured.

put the machete like that...

I am ready to take efforts for Padithurai. I have tried contacting KS Suka in facebook and sadly there has been no reply at all.

அட விடுங்கப்பா.. வருறத பேசிட்டு போவட்டும். சார் ஆங்கிலம், மலையாளம், தெலுங்கு, கன்னடமெல்லாம் பேசுவார். தமிழனுக்கு தமிழ், ஆங்கிலம் தவிர வேறேதும் பேச வராதுன்னு இனிமே யாரும் சொல்ல மாட்டாங்க. இது ரொம்ப பெரிய விஷயம்ங்க .
