Neethane En Ponvasantham | Yeto Vellipoyindhi Manasu | Assi Nabbe Poorey Sau

@bala, Hmm, I don't see a way to answer your question. It like trying to explain some one why you like a certain dish. It just tastes good , that's all. Like wise it just 'immensly' appealed to me (and a few others here), so much that it was in a loop for an hour. Dissecting and subjecting it to scrutiny will lead no where. Why am I betting on it so much? I know what Raja is capable of. He can turn simple tunes into soulful melodies. He has done it so many times in the past. Let's just wait for a week. If the 'full' song doesn't turn out promising, I'll be the first one to brickbat. :)

PS: I'm not a sycophantic raja bhaktar. I have been quite critical about some of his recent works.

Btw, I am aware of Tamizh Padam premise. I was too lazy to list out songs in gibberish. Chose to list the spoof instead.

Overheard in Raja fan group in FB.

done. Thanks sakala. :smile:

Hi guys in US who ordered NEPV CD, a short update.

Payment mode is not decided. There are many options emerging. Kamesh is in talks with Sony. 2 things,

1. Sony itself trying to take care of this.
2. If that is not possible, the selected Volunteer can pay and buy CDs in bulk and you ppl living nearby him can decide your mode of payment with him and proceed.



Any other suggestions, welcome.



There is another option, the Volunteer shall sell the CDs thru the Indian Grocery Stores in respective areas., so that it reaches the community easily.s



As of now, nothing is decided. So far some 80+ CD requests have come, and still counting

81 and counting.. BTW velaya sollave illaye..

skv - selling NEPV cds thru grocery stores ?? like how ? one Priya pickle bottle + 1 cd, one haldiram ready-to-eat panneer masala pack + 1 cd, etc ?? are you serious ?

thats NOT the way to go - better for SONY to release (officially) a minimum of 500 CDs through some chain/outlet in the US and then based on how the sales pick up

i can understand fans/patrons selling/buying TiS CDs this way - that project was a joke from the start (output was great though) - but this one is done by SONY which is not a 'gopal pal podi', 'malabar beedi',company!!

they have to be told caregorically to release the CD wordwide as a limited no - until things pick up

selling through volunteers / fans is crass, cheap and reeks of unprofessionalism!

IRIR, Kamesh said me that NEP is released by Sony India and to sell in outlets/online in American Land, it shud be only thru Sony US/Global which in fact has some legal issues. Ithukku munnaadi VTV and other albums, Sony or Other labels, TFM Albums ai US la eppadi sale panninaanga, enna channel use panninaanga i don't know. All these effforts are being taken by Kamesh only becos as per his vague source, NEP is NOT coming via Amazon/iTunes anytime soon. So Kamesh planned to sell CDs to some 3 Volunteers (Zonally divided as NY / Chicago / SF ) and they will have to ship the CDs to the nearby fans. So those fans will have to pay to the volunteers of respective areas. Thatswhy we are collecting Area info and Quantity through the forms.

Now that the requirement is around some 100 which will easily grow to 150/200(max) You are most welcome to tell us the alternative mechanism to deliver CDs. Kamesh took this initiative ALSO becos of some US based fans in Facebook wanted to have this CD physically, though they know that they can listen to this online. Becos this album is kinda special in many ways.

And regarding the Indian Stores, again it is an assumption, Assuming that the Volunteer will handover the CDs to the Indian stores and interested parties can go and buy there. This sa to be done off-the-shelf only. We are not in idea of entering NEP CDs to the Store Inventory! As the Quantity is going to be less and the whole process is transparent, ie, nobody is going to get any profit, the Store keeper chall agree for this. Even more, there is a plan that STore keeper gives the CDs ONLY to some fixed ppl(who entered their names in the form) and not to everybody dropping in the stores. Maybe if there are few excessive numbers, they may sell to others. This whoe Indian Store thing depends only on the wrap-up the Volunteer has with his nearby stores. Thus using the Indian Store just as a common point of collection.

Jai, Price will be the CD Price + Shipping. Kamesh is not getting anything out of this. Thatswhy for CD prices, I have given Flipkart Links in that Form, for Reference.
(For handiness, now on I am adding that Form Link in my Siggy)

Before initiating ANY financial move, it will be posted and discussed clearly in Mayyam.com & Facebook. Don't worry!

irir123 - you just spoke my mind. Not the way to go, if 50000 is the target.

If that's the case why did some 25+ ppl filled the form and some happily agreed for Volunteering?!? Above all, as i said, Kamesh is in talks with sony and if something happens, then we(Kamesh & Myself) will need not at all take this task of buying CDs and shipping. But as of now nothing is finalised. So in this situation, some fans are taking initiative and rest of the fans, those interested are responding. What problem for others??

With your links, you can always gauge the situation at ground level and if you wish, you take an initiative which is professional according to you. Who stopped you?!? Why needless comments on those who take initiative on their own and work for an option amicably agreeable by all the parties involved?!?
