I saw that Sreenivasan was credited with story-screenplay, so I wondered if it was the same Sreenivasan who was a Malayalam actor. I hope IR has given some new tunes instead of reusing COA tunes.

Asha Bhonsle - ularalin ucham. idhu enna:
"I am very delighted with Rahman for what he has done. When I met him first for 'Rangeela', he was a young guy with long hair. And look at his compositions now. He is a genius," the veteran singer said.
"
What the heck is that? Long hair - is that all she can remember of Rahman from those times? Rangeela-la paadinadhukkappuram dhaan she got a second innings in bollywood. Rangella composition pathi oru word illai - enna arthathula pesaranga ivanga? Long hair vechurkkavanguakkellam golden globe thara mattangala?
Plum ,
dont bleieve whatever news papers write !
I dont understand, why do IR fans go frenzy when someone appreciates someone else. It looks kiddish, pardon me for saying so. If a composer from India won an international award (forget about the merit, but look at plain facts) and if film fraternity congratulates him at that moment, what is wrong.
if Sachin tendulkar sets some record and if all players praise him, why should fans of some other player feel jealous about it.
And regarding Asha Bhonsle, she sang songs of every composer. today, at a moment when she wants to congratulate ARR and if she forgot mentioning IR among 'good composers', does it mean she doesnt hold him in high esteem? i find it really strange and silly, but people read in between lines so much, to the extent that it transforms into 'appreciation clamouring'. Please dont get me wrong folks, but we dont need everyone to always vouch for IR's music. thats impractical.If we feel that 'she did not mention IR', then if she mentions IR in some other interview, fans of composer Raveendran might feel offended for not mentioning him (for example). wherre is the end to it.
I once read Asha Bhonsle's interview in which she told that her most favourite song in tamil is "Shenbaghame Shenbaghame". Doesnt that say more?
MrJudge, lets not get into the biases of Bollywood and South Indian film music and 'Our way' and all.Just because IR did not get enough recognition in the North, it doesnt mean that there are things like 'Their' and 'Our'. IR has lot of respect among the elitest of the composers in North.Why did Pt.Bhimsen Joshi sing for him? Pt.Rajan Mishra and Sajan Mishra? They are doyens of Hindustani music.
the point i am trying to make is...we dont need to always clamour for appreciation endorsed by legends.They like and respect IR and they dont need to show it always. For the moment, merits and brickbats aside, it is a 'feel good' factor that an Indian musician has been recognized and everyone is congratulating that. Nothing wrong in that.
Infact.. in this thread, http://www.mayyam.com/hub/viewtopic....2038&start=375
a member named fliflo expressed same thoughts as i have.
Chill guys. an award is just an award. whats worth more is the music!
If some music by an Indian composer got recognized, be it so..it is good. but it doesnt necessarily mean 'this music' is great and 'that music is not'.
I think it is high time we set aside comparisons and view music by different composers as stand-alone schools of thought.
There is never good music or bad music. the difference lies only in 'what we like' and 'what we dont like' and i am sure even IR's thought process agrees with this philosophy.
