IR's New albums - Ver 2008

[raja_fan]

"Kodai vidumurai" changed to "Anal Katru" ?

both are not unrelated.
should be a chennai based subject then

Anal Kaatru -- BM confirmed IR again

In all likelihood, it will feature fresh faces.

“I’m certain of one thing,” said Mahendra, “that it will feature the music director who has scored for all my films, the maestro, Ilayaraja.”

Teja & IR tried to team up a couple of years ago, but the project didn't materialize. Probably he'd be reusing those tunes again??!

IR composed a song in 3 notes for this film, which we got to hear later in JayaTV's show.

A big project for IR in telugu after a long time!

I think IR is the MD for this movie too in telugu (earlier titled "okkadhostunnadu")

rajafan,
Yes, Kallellam is also MMG. There is a beautiful song Anbe vaa in Ezhai Jadhi which also gives this feeling of Muslim kind of song and Desert safari.

I would also suggest that "Mookkuththi Poomele" (KJY and SJ) to be in the same vein.
Side stepping a bit, ARR's "Suntha hai mere khudha' in Pukar, will probably best illustrate the closeness to Islam that this raaga has. Then again, "Suntha hai" is almost a direct lift of "Kallellaam:.

I don't know about Teja. Is he a very good director ?

[rooky]

Teja was a hot young director in telugu some five years back.

He had superhits like "Jayyam" , "NuvvuNenu" to name a few.He has lost his way a bit now.I guess he had a release last year but not sure about its fate.

[raja_fan]

"Jeyam" - was this the one remade in tamil with Jeyam Ravi and Sada ? But I guess director was Raja, Ravi's brother..

[Sanjeevi]

Ilaiyaraja has extended the same tune he used to rag Kamal in Jeya TV's concert Anrum Inrum Enrum and produced a song in Kangalum Kavi Paaduthey.

Remember the kudikArA parama kudikArA song and compare it with mAlai nilA song of KKP. Ofcourse, it is not a wonder how a tune changes its face from one mood to another if Raja drives it.

Guess we can expect sherya ghosal to sing in all the new albums by IR..hehe

Sherya Ghosal's interview on cnn-ibn..She really look up to illayaraja and said IR is the best(part 3) and she also cheeni kum is close to her heart..







I wonder when will sun tv,kalaignar tv etc interview her bcos she's hottest singer right now in Kollywood..Someone pls suggest this to the tamil channels..Instead of interviewing half baked singers/actors, they should try to get shreya ghosal...
