Valee has some talent otherwise he wouldnt be in the industry for so long.Listen to Undhan Desathin Kural beautiful lyrics...course all he had to do was translate but the words chosen were very well written.
anyways back to the music i think kamal can sing...certain types of songs.Like in Vasool Raja the song he sung suited the picturization and the song.he should know his limits and sing in that range.
What I mean when I said kamal is not saving money is, he is having valee on board, and he has to pay him separately, whereas if kamal / raja writes all the songs (like what happened in virumaaNdi), kamal will save some money ... I had no intention of comparing vaalee and kamal's kavith thiRamaigaL !
I think we better have these discussions about vaalee's poetic talents outside this thread (there is one thread dedicated for this)
By the way, 'Muham' is not a tamil word !
NagaS
muka naka natpathu natpandRu, nenjaththu
aka naka natpathE natpu (kuRaL)...
enna NagaS, mukam Thamizh chollalla endRu solli vitteergaLE:-(
`mukham' may be also used by vadamozhi, but no one will really ever know what is the original...probably some linguist who studies all those before 2000 years stuff can throw some light on this...
One more digression:
It's really an interesting discussion `How to determine the ORIGINAL owner (language) of any single WORD...'
It's not just going back 2000 years, it should be in fact going back much beyond that (to around BC 2200, about 4200 years back, when the languages were confused at the tower of Babel according to Bible History)...
With the language academics claim some 3000 languages being spoken in the world and many of them part of a fewer language `families' (the major families listed by philologists - Indo-European, Sino-Tibetan, Afro-Asian, Japanese and Korean, Dravidian, Malayo-Polynesian, and Black African)...it would be really, really difficult for anyone to place a single word to where it originally belonged:-))
End-digression
app_engine, it is difficult to place ownership for a word with a language. This is because, the term 'language' itself is very fluid. There is no geographical boundary like for a country with legal/international agreements/treaties.Quote:

I am impressed with Kamal's lyrics writing, but I wouldn't say valee is inferior - avar pazham thinRu kottai pOtta periyavar (ha..even fal has pazham as its roots I am told). Going by the description of ME storyline, I am not so sure the songs would come out well. How long would IR keep doing this for kamal ? Kamal might think he is still young :-) but IR surely has grown old for these kind of tastes, IMHO.
:) I am not an expert in this, But 'muham' is a sanskrit word, thats what I remember ! (muuh in hindhi ?)Quote:

Kamal's next with Gautham is likely to go on the floors on Independence day,that's a pretty big gap for Kamal after ME(4 months)&even more for Gautham after the telugu version of 'Kakka Kakka'(1 year). Wonder what is there in the script that they are working for such a long time :?
may be kamal will do a crazy mohan flick with KSR / Mauli in those four months ? ;)

Nakkal? :) I doubt it as most sites say Gautham's film will be his next after 'ME'.I was always under the impression that this will be his Diwali release as in most interviews Kamal says he is not happy vis-a-vis films/year&he wants to increase his output.If they are starting it on Aug 15th,it will be a Pongal release which means he would have done just 1 film this year. :(Quote:
