For people like him, Charu and Gnani its not music of ARR or IR that makes them support/hate them, some other external factors leads to their decisions. Just Ignore their likes and lets be peaceful.
IR - ARR battle can be fought later! Kadavulgal othumaiya irunthaalum, Bhakthargal Atha nirutha mudiyathulla :)
It neednt be fought at all firstly. Good music, be it by any composer, is always pleasing to our senses and i dont see any reason why anyone should fight over which is good and which is not, particularly when music is written with sincerity.Quote:

Highlight: "It is quite clear that Ilaiyaraaja’s respect is well-warranted. His music is immediately engaging, with a popular sensibility that gives way to detailed construction upon further exploration. Working with a variety of synthetic production, live orchestra, and fabulous singers and Indian music instrumentalists lends the music a unique quality that one discovers is part of the style of this composer. Here is someone who has discovered a way to fuse musics from multiple periods both East and West to create a sound that serves each subsequent film. There is much of the composer’s music to be explored and even with the language barrier that ultimately exists, the music is immediately communicative and often entrancing."
Hip Hip Hurray!
You just search for IR speech in youtube - you will come across some of the most interesting speeches.Quote:

Watch 'Uruvam' today 4.39 PM IST in Raj TV. Its the best BGM score from Raja for ghost movies genre.
Never heard of this movie. Is it a dubbed (into tamil) movie?Quote:

Krish,
That was a typo, it should be 4.30 pm :)
Uruvam is original Tamil movie, produced by Mohan and he acted by in it too (as a defaced man). RP Viswam is also there as evil man. I have seen this movie few years back, very scary, eerie BGM.
Yeah, I never heard of it and searched the web.Quote:

Uruvam has also a very short peppy song.
Mohan tried a come-back by this movie which failed miserably as his later "Anbulla kaadhalukku" :)
Director Vishnu says a IR song is the main BGM for first half of sarvam......Rajavin isaiyai tamil cinemavai vittu pirikka mudiyathu pola..... :)

S. Janaki's speech in the felicitation of ARR was very nice. She said that it was like Music & Saraswathy who came to bless ARR (referring to IR and probably others as well).

I am surprised that there is no news about Jaganmohini.
Long back, there was a news article saying that IR was doing 18 films and is still the busiest composer in India.
whatever happened to all those films.
Particularly:
1. Jaganmohini
2. SRK
3. Chal Chale
4. Pazhassi Raja
5. Silent Film in Telugu featuring comedian Brahmanandam.
And how come there is no talk abt upcoming tamil flicks of IR, after NL and NK.
wat abt the telugu film on 'Thyagayya' ?
They are all coming slowly. Slow but steadily. Most the albums are coming either Early April or after Tamil New Year.
Hulkster - slowly or steadily, the silence between projects is way too disquieting! for example, the much awaited release of 'Pazhassi Raja' has been postponed for 2 years, even though the songs have all been composed/recorded and done! and when it gets released, it will be under some nonsense label, CDs difficult to obtain and it will be gone without a trace in a few months after the release
EKSI
Article says Pazhassi Raja back on track:

T.Selvakumar, MD of ARR's music school (also music programmer) says he considers ARR and IR as two most tech savvy musicians of India.
http://www.screenindia.com/news/the-insiders/436131/
"He also continues to deal in Apple equipment. Whenever the company launches something new, Rahman is his first client. “AR’s one of the two most tech-savvy musicians in India,” he states, proudly. Who’s the other? “You wouldn’t expect this: Ilaiyaraaja.” "
thanks,
Krishnan
Mudhalvar Mahatma is on Aug 15th. But who is the MD?

No scope for IR tunes as such (unless director wishes to incorporate new songs reflecting that period/era, picturized generally and not on the protagonist). So from the expectation's perspective, i am looking forward to only arrangements and hence i cannot treat it as a complete Ilaiyaraaja album.Quote:

Coming back to films, Vairamuthu definitely feels music maestro Ilayaraaja and film director Bharathiraaja are trendsetters. “The desire to succeed was strong in us and it paid rich dividends. We had the thirst to excel. It was art and its sake in the forefront rather than the commercial aspect. We worked hard day and night and the creations that emerged have stood the test of time. It also helped us to accept challenges. Take, for instance, folk numbers. We paid more attention to the folksy flavour, which was found missing earlier. The reach of those numbers is phenomenal,” he says and sings ‘Vettiveru Vaasam Vedalapulla Nesam…’ the popular song from “Muthal Mariyathai” before signing off.
