So where did the communication gap arise between KH and IR ?
Thank you crvenky.
crvenky, a small correction. I just verified and as RR says in "ROS" thread, the raga of "maanida sevai drogama" from film "Unnal mudiyum thambi" is "Poornachandrika". BTW, UdhayaRavichandrika is the same As "Suddha dhanyasi", IR's most fav raga along with "Kiravani" , IMO
Right, I dont have high opinion about MR either, but I can agree with the above on KB. Some of his other actions (like apologising to Rajni) did not give me a good impression about him.Quote:

Thumburu, thanks for correcting me :)
Any info about the singer Haricharan, who sung Naalai inneram in KKP? There is some uniqueness in his voice. What are the other songs by him?
haricharan i
His famous numbers are
Arabu naade -
and of course Kadhal - Unnakaena Irupen
Haricharan has also sung Ottrai kannale from "Vel"... I liked his voice instantly... nice to see that it has managed to get Raja's attention and nod as well.

"Aval Appadithan" Rudhraih back to TFI
From the above linke, a new matter to know (atleast for me)
Quote:
இளையராஜாவின் இசையில் கவியரசு கண்ணதாசனே வெகுவாக ரசித்துக் கேட்ட 'உறவுகள் தொடர்கதை...' எனும் அருமையான பாடல் இந்தப் படத்தில்தான் இடம் பெற்றிருந்தது. இதை எழுதியவர் கங்கை அமரன்.
அதே போல இதே படத்தில் கங்கை அமரன் எழுதி கமல் பாடிய இன்னொரு பாடலான பன்னீர் புஷ்பங்களே... பெரும் வரவேற்பைப் பெற்றது அன்றைக்கு.
இத்தனைக்கும் கவியரசர் இந்தப் படத்தில் 'வாழ்க்கை ஓடம் செல்ல...' எனும் பாடலை எழுதியிருந்தார். அதையே தூக்கி சாப்பிட்ட பாடலாக அமைந்தது உறவுகள் தொடர்கதை. அதே போல எழுத்தாளர் வண்ணநிலவனும் இப்படத்தில் குறிப்பிடத்தக்க பங்காற்றியிருந்தார்.
KKP review on Rediff:

It says there is an instrumental theme piece only included in cassette (reminds us that "cassette" still exists!)
thanks,

A song from SMS.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qahccK5UFYc
Not great, just a college teaser song !
the song sucks big-time!
IR seems to have signed another Telugu film - Mallepoovu. :)

big loss to TN and India -(
end digression
My (late) opinion about KKP!
1. Hey Mamu: Enough of "tan taka taun" please! Did not like the song.
2. Maalai Nila: Right from the first note, this song impressed me, although I wish the interludes were better. Nevertheless this is one of the best songs in this album. Nice tune. I wonder if IR has tried to sound more unlike himself in this song. I mean more like a professional singer singing a duet.
3. Naalai Inneram: The way the pallavi starts and charanam ends, it took me back to "Anne Anne sippai.." days, but the otherwise nice tune and the smooth flowing music makes one to enjoy the song. Somehow IR has a knack of introducing silence (pause) in a song if situation demands and he is very good at that I think. Notice the 2nd charanam.
4. Sollumvarai kaadhal: Somehow felt its a slow tune. The way Manjari starts "sollu sollava", it (the pattern) reminds me of some other IR song, but I dont recollect. Anyway not a big thing. Charanam sounded better. I just did not like the "too plain" 1st interlude. Looks like IR experimented with some sounds :). 2nd was somewhat better (only).
5. Pottumela: I listened to this song the 2nd time without analysing anything just to enjoy the old IR in this song. For me, this is the other best song of the album. Loved the 1st interlude. Do I hear guitar (or simulated) bits as bass portions. Love the way the charanam tune starts. 2nd interlude is not as good as 1st one, but ok. . If picturised, it has potential to become a popular song. Good singing.
thanks,
Krishnan
Definitely a great loss to us IR fans too.Quote:

He was keen to have "Aalwar's songs" tuned by Raja.
No one can fill Sujatha's space... http://vigneshram.blogspot.com/2008/...o-sujatha.html

And BTW, I absolutely hate KB as an individual for making his personal choices into movies (like Apoorva Raagangal!)
I still remember writer Sujatha's glowing review of the "panthuvaraLi" based modern concerto piece from "RajaParvai" in kumudham. Sujatha knew how to play musical instrumens like guitar. Like his class mate Abdul Kalaam , Sujatha's sharp musical knowledge came in handy while writing few music reviews.
They dunt make people like him anymore :( . Iam particularly aghast at TOI Bangalore to have spared just 2 lines announcing his demise , that too only today, where as a "thummal" of likes of SRK or Bachans would have made headlines
Yeah some of them are very good indeed! but KB was not able to come out of the hangover of DRAMA, Period. His understanding of Cinema as Audio-Visual medium was so so....Quote:

Ninaithale inikkum - Sans the Theatre/Drama feel was a great attempt for those times.
The Best thing about him is, He writes everything in simple and lighter way, that you dont feel heavy even when the subject he handles is a heavy one. Just like IR Who makes all great music sound simple.Quote:

GOVT. should sanction Cloning such people whom the society will need permanently.
Rajasaranam - a year ago, I had an interesting email interaction with the late Mr.Sujata on 'metaphysics and systems science' based on a research article published by a renowned systems scientist! in spite of what I assume must have been a busy schedule, he replied with patience and enthusiasm - hallmarks of great men! may his Soul find a better place!
also several years ago, I had met him at Prasad Studios (IR introduced me to him and Gnanarajasekharan then) during Bharathy rerecording - he was a very simple, humble person, and within minutes of introduction, asked me tons of questions about my areas of research - wanting to know more, genuinely inquisitive rather than pretending to understand and gain knowledge - such people are rare to find amongst the 'pop/consumer' culture grown present generation, IMHO
btw, it was at the same occasion, IR who was busy conducting the rerecording, was doing multi-tasking - correcting score errors, and also listening to us! at the end, IR had some interesting comments about Discovery, National Geographic and History Channels! apparently he watches these channels regularly and in fact, watches only these whenever he gets a chance! IR's approach to life in terms of knowing more, understanding better, implementing ideas creatively could easily be seen then
IR also later spoke extensively about events in Ramana Maharishi's life and his knowledge of most great seers/saints of India was/is astounding! for instance, he spoke about Sant Kabir!! I was taken aback and I shared with him what little I knew about Shri Ramakrishna Paramhans (I had to say something)- perhaps this approach towards understanding/ realizing things at a higher level and always seeking the same, is what is making IR take less interest in 'junk' movies ! therefore, am hoping for something remarkable from IR for "pazhassi raja" and "Manikandan" etc - I only wish Kamal cud somehow rope him for Marmayogi - Kamal IMHO, has a similar approach in terms of constantly striving to know more, though he might be an atheist!
and I sincerely wish/hope that new directors/filmmakers understand IR the way it has to be and then respect his 'inner' needs and based on the same, extract stuff from him! thats the only way, things will work henceforth!
Did anyone see the TV ad for secondshadi.com? The music in the ad resembles a song/BGM by IR. Not sure what it is.
irir,
thanks for sharing those experiences :)
Vem, the same news (with same wordings) in the following site as well. Ore Jalra !
I dont know when these online sites will stop replicating (or copying) from another site.
http://www.tamilstar.com/news/publis...cle_5826.shtml
BTW, the above news also says that IR will be the MD for a new tamil movie "Azhaharmalai"
thanks,
Krishnan
I have seen IR's WTNI/NBW music used (as it is) in ETV Marathi channel for some ad.Quote:

Doesn't matter if IR is singing a duet after 10 years or belching after 16 years. Probably the last chance I'm going to give him is with Pazhasi Raaja. If he continues with the irritating pauses in his songs, non-sense synths and lack luster/insipid interludes, I would go back to the wonderful collection of him in my iPod.
:D you have spoken my mind !Quote:

But I am very much confident, PR will be different !
Sujatha's demise is a great loss to contemporary tamil writing. As a kid, I had difficulty maintaining context with his 'conversational' style of story telling. Once I got the taste of it I enjoyed this novel approach. I still remember the US business school assignments, the hero gets in 'pirivOm, santhippOm'. the robot dog, 3d holographic ghosts and his non-fictional 'seidhi sollum seyaRkai kOlgal' etc.
The man did a great service to tamil and common tamil people's exposure to science. He also had practical opinion on controversial issues like reservation (ie. it is a struggle for resources and only way to deal with it is to increase opportunities).
