Maestro ilaiyaraaja news & titbits

[rajsekar]

SoftSword/V_S and other members - We live in 2012 where social media (Facebook, blogs, forums, Tweets, emails) can shake democracies. This is not 1998 or 2004 where decisions by government can be thrust on people. ARR and Maestro fans should write about this omission everywhere. I am just doing the same. Just resigning to the fact that Rockstar/ARR/ASK were ignored for Best Music/Background score is not acceptable. If fans like us don't even write (or) blog about such obvious omissions, then we are not fit to be called "Fans".

I am trying to get the email contact of Yelamanchilli Saibabu to express our sympathies for SRR snub. The Yalamanchilli community (http://www.yalamanchili.co.in) is very rich and have pulls in the AP political sphere - just like Sun Pictures. I'm sure Saibabu is doing everything he can to bring this omission to notice. What's the use of forums if we don't address these problems? For Best Music Direction (Songs), "Ronjona" songs are pathetic. Rahman did a fantastic job with "Rockstar" with world class musicians - percussion/ strings for 'Nadaan Parindey' and 'Saada Haq' songs are excellent. The bottom line is that the entire jury who judged the Best Music and Background Score were "HEARING IMPAIRED" or "DEAF".
