 Batting ace Sachin Tendulkar is extremely elated by India's showing 
at the Oscars.
 
 It is a brilliant achievement. For the entire nation, it is a very 
proud moment, Tendulkar
 said this morning. 
 
 The master blaster, who had had a word with A R Rahman a couple of 
days ago, was confident that
 the musical genius will walk away with the honours.
 
 Rahman's contribution to music has been immense and this award is 
only a mere reflection of
 what he has been able to contribute to music and to India.
 
 I had spoken to him not only about this, but about other albums as 
well. He has always been
 able to produce something special in every album, Tendulkar said. 
 
 Rahman won two Oscars - for the best original score and the best 
song.

 I share similar views. For me Delhi 6 is like a piece of abstract

format and narrative, which may or may not be box office friendly. The 
characters were well etched and the AR's score elevated the film.

[arr] Getting ’em home may be taxing

2009-02-24 Thread Anantha Dreamer

Deepshikha Sikarwar NEW DELHI (Economic Times)

SLUMS can become skyscrapers but, doggone it, some things never change fast
enough. Like our laws, which clearly haven’t factored in India’s new topdog
role. And the latest victim of that could be AR Rahman, freshly annointed
the music king of Hollywood. While the two Oscars he won for Slumdog
Millionaire should be priceless, our eagle-eyed government officials have
found out that each gilt statuette is actually worth $500 — which makes the
second one liable to be charged customs duty!
This lacuna, with its huge embarrassment potential, however, has been
spotted in time by a fellow Tamilian, home minister P Chidambaram, given his
long innings in the finance ministry. He has promptly made a recommendation
to exempt Rahman from the outdated rule that allows Indians to bring a
paltry Rs 25,000 worth of duty-free baggage into the country. It is hoped
that Pranab Mukherjee, now handling the finance portfolio, already has his
officials working on a clarification. Jai Ho! But why should Rahman be in
this predicament at all?
Well, at $500, each Oscar is worth Rs 24,870 (taking $1= Rs 49.74),
which puts Rahman’s baggage at around Rs 25,000 above the permitted
duty-free allowance — presuming there are no other take-ways from this
historic event. Mr Chidambaram has thought of that too. *Rahman may have to
pay Rs 8,925 *
“IF the Oscars carry a cash award, I will recommend to the finance minister
that it should be exempt from taxation,” he said at the foundation stone
laying ceremony of Rajaswa Bhavan (where top tax officials will have
offices), at which Mr Mukherjee was also present.
But if things don’t move fast enough, Mr Rahman will have to pay customs
duty at the rate of 35.7% on the value of one Oscar, totalling Rs 8,925.
Admittedly that’s peanuts for the music maestro, but the government will
find it tough to explain the blanket application of an arcane law. More so,
since sportspersons who represent India at international fora are now given
duty exemption, like Sachin Tendulkar.

[arr] Re: I dedicate this award to my country

2009-02-24 Thread avyayan

Just as Rahman passed on all praise to the universal Almighty power, 
I am touched to hear Rasool mentioning the primordial sound of the 
universe, Om, in his acceptance speech. It's gratifying to see people 
transcending the boundaries of their faith and accepting all that's 
good from all over. Such people inspire us to always choose love over 
hate - and just look at the heights scaled by those who choose to do 
so!

Let me record my formal congrats to Rahman and Rasool for doing India 
proud on an international stage. They are truly our global 
ambassadors. More than that, their awards are the long overdue 
recognition of the soul-stirring work they do to make people happy, 
regardless of affiliation. 



 For those who missed Resul's acceptance speech at the Oscars, here 
it is: 'This is unbelievable. We can't believe this. Ladies and 
gentlemen... sorry I share the stage with two magicians, you 
know, who created the very ordinary sounds of Bombay, the cacophony 
of Bombay, into a soul-stirring, artful resonance called Slumdog 
Millionaire.
 I come from a country and a civilization that given the universal 
word. That word is preceded by silence, followed by more silence. 
That word is 'Om.' So I dedicate this award to my country. Thank you, 
Academy, this is not just a sound award, this is history being handed 
over to me. My sincere and deepest gratitude to my teachers, Danny 
Boyle [Images], Christian Colson, Paul Ritchie, Pravesh... and 
everybody who has contributed to this film, Glenn Freemantle and all 
the sound mixers. I dedicate this to you guys. Thank you, Academy. 
Thank you very much.

[arr] Who all became Oscar winner for Jai Ho?

Sorry if it has already been clarified here. I am not able to cope up 
with the huge avalanche of mails (I am not complaining though).

Jai Ho got Oscar as a song. What is the status of its composer, 
lyricist, singers, chorus artists, other instruments players and 
technicians, etc.?

Can they be called Oscar winners themselves individually, or are they 
called the contributors for an Oscar winner song or what?

That means Gulzar ji, Sukhwinder and other singers, etc. didn't win an 
Oscar for themselves. Several of my friends and even i myself were under 
the impression that Gulzar ji got Oscar.

Sorry if it has already been clarified here. I am not able to cope up
with the huge avalanche of mails (I am not complaining though).

Jai Ho got Oscar as a song. What is the status of its composer,
lyricist, singers, chorus artists, other instruments players and
technicians, etc.?

Can they be called Oscar winners themselves individually, or are they
called the contributors for an Oscar winner song or what?

That means Gulzar ji, Sukhwinder and other singers, etc. didn't win an
Oscar for themselves. Several of my friends and even i myself were under
the impression that Gulzar ji got Oscar.

I never thought Hindi lyrics could win an Oscar: Gulzar

Published Feb 23, 2009 by News Desk

New Delhi, Noted lyricist Gulzar, who shared the Oscar for his song Jai 
ho in Slumdog Millionaire with A.R. Rahman, has confessed that he 
never thought Hindi lyrics could win the golden statuette.

I never thought in the wildest of my dreams that Hindi lyrics can ever 
win an Oscar. Indian songs never had a place there (in the West) and the 
credit for this recognition goes to Rahman, Gulzar told a news channel.

The lyricist was gaga over composer A.R. Rahman.

He said: What a team to work with. You see the spirit of a film in his 
music. It's a pleasure to work with that man. He is an amazing innovator 
- the way he innovates the sounds is just amazing.

He is the one who broke the cliched methods of music compositions in 
the country and his innovativeness is the reason he has reached the 
Oscars. I am really proud of him, Gulzar added.

[arr] Re: Look Back and Feel Proud

very rightly said. i was also remembering the same. also while 
discussing in the thread yahoo group 10 years from now one of us 
mentioned something like ARR's # Oscar and I prayed in my heart and 
thought that it would be too difficult to win Oscar unless he scores 
for some big hollywood movie with some renowned director. and here we 
are, just in a few months the dream has became true and he has won 2 
Oscars at once. wow... God is great!

I

 Christchurch:
 Batting ace Sachin Tendulkar is extremely elated by India's showing at the
 Oscars.

 It is a brilliant achievement. For the entire nation, it is a very proud
 moment, Tendulkar
 said this morning.

 The master blaster, who had had a word with A R Rahman a couple of days
 ago, was confident that
 the musical genius will walk away with the honours.

 Rahman's contribution to music has been immense and this award is only a
 mere reflection of
 what he has been able to contribute to music and to India.

 I had spoken to him not only about this, but about other albums as well.
 He has always been
 able to produce something special in every album, Tendulkar said.

 Rahman won two Oscars - for the best original score and the best song.

well said. what i am wondering about is that how can the world have

work is accessible to the world. who is gonna do that? music companies 
should come forward and release his albums (or at least Best of ARR 
albums) targeting the international audience.

Bharat Ratna is now obvious.

But Noble Prize? Which category? World peace? Literature? (for, say, his 
biography)?

From Wiki-

Foreign language winners

Manos Hadjidakis was the first to receive this award for a song originally 
written in a language other than English, in 1960 for Never on Sunday (Greek 
title Ta Paidia toy Peiraia) from the Greek film Never on Sunday (Greek title 
Pote tin Kyriaki).
Jorge Drexler was the second foreign language songwriter to win the Best 
Original Song Oscar, for Al Otro Lado del Río from The Motorcycle Diaries in 
2004. That year another foreign language writing pair were nominated, composer 
Bruno Coulais and lyricist Christophe Barratier for Vois Sur Ton Chemin (Look 
To Your Path) from the French movie Les Choristes.
A. R. Rahman and Gulzar are the third and fourth foreign language songwriters 
to win in the Best Original Song category, which they shared for the Hindi song 
Jai Ho from Slumdog Millionaire, at the 81st Academy Awards in 2009. That 
same year, O... Saya, another partly Hindi song from the same film by Rahman 
and M.I.A., was also nominated, making it the first time two foreign language 
songs were nominated in the category.http://en.wikipedia .org/wiki/ 
Academy_Award_ for_Best_ Original_ Song

 One Question..Is Jai Ho the first non-english song to be nominated and have
 won the oscars in the best song category?

I also concede that these awards brought these boundless joys because 
these were the firsts. Our man has changed the paradigm, our man has 
broken the spell, our man has widened the horizons. Now he and many 
others would get these and other nominations and awards, but that would 
be a repeat, a routine, a confirmation that what our man has done now 
was not a fluke, not a one song wonder, not a one film wonder.

Still, I think that when (not if) a fully Indian film (made solely by 
Indian born guys in all major departments) would get these awards, that 
would again be as joyous.

Jai Ho
 
I am from kerala and working on a project at delhi, i couldn't watch the show 
live on television but was getting every info on the oscars from home 
over phone. After that the whole day i was with the news about it in different 
websites and trying to watch the videos of the performance and winning speech. 
So as a matter of fact, my scheduled return would be delayed by another day for 
not doing any work yesterday. But it was a day we all were expecting since 
years, right from the first ARR work we heard. So it was a day to celebrate 
keeping aside all work. 

Jai Ho

Dialogue


Brand Speak


I had a choice between love and hate, and I chose love. Thats why I am here 
today.  AR
Rahman on winning his second Oscar.

The Mozart from Madras created history on February 23, 2009 in Los Angeles and 
sent entire
India into a euphoric frenzy. A special mention here for the hugely talented 
Resul Pookutty as
well, who brought home the third Oscar for Sound Mixing.

The reverberations of Rahmans two Oscar wins will be felt for a long time and 
also celebrated
by brands that the music maestro endorses. Rahmans association with these 
brands has been long
and epoch making. He has given them a lot of credibility, respect, immense 
value addition in
terms of brand positioning and a lot of social causes that the brands got 
associated with
through him.

Congratulating Rahman, Sunil Bharti Mittal, Chairman and Group CEO, Bharti 
Enterprises, said,
The global acclaim for Slumdog Millionaire mirrors the growth story of 
India. This signals
the arrival of India on the world entertainment stage. In particular, AR 
Rahmans unique double
Oscar win has made all of us very proud. Airtel has shared a long friendship 
with Rahman, who
composed the Airtel signature tune, which is synonymous with the brand today. 
Our heartiest
congratulations to Rahman and the entire Slumdog Millionaire team.

Nearly two years back, the opening song of Spike Lees movie Inside Man had 
made many in the
audience feel that a wrong soundtrack was being played. But as the air cleared, 
it made every
Indian who watched that movie enjoy the magic of Rahmans music in a Hollywood 
flick for the
first time.

The song was Chaiya Chaiya, originally from the SRK-starrer Dil Se. Rahman 
had also
enthralled the London West End with his music for Andrew Lloyd Webbers musical 
Bombay
Dreams.

Thus, even before the Oscars, Rahman had introduced the world to his unique 
brand of melody.
The Golden Statuettes are just a culmination of that popularity. The road to 
the Oscars was
paved with wins at the British Academy Award (BAFTA) and Golden Globe.

An exclusive note from Airtel gives a brief history of Rahmans association 
with the brand. The
music maestro became Airtels brand ambassador in 2002. The brand campaign for 
Airtel in 2002
featuring Rahman was the first time he appeared in a television commercial. 
When Rahman
composed the tune, Airtel had two million customers. Today, Airtel claims to 
have over 90
million customers. The Airtel signature tune composed by Rahman is stated to be 
the worlds
most downloaded piece of mobile music with over 60 million downloads. 
Incidentally, this tune
has made its appearance in several forms, including car reverse music.

Chandrasekar Radhakrishnan, Senior VP - Marketing, Airtel, said, We would like 
to congratulate
AR Rahman for winning the most coveted prize in world cinema and setting new 
benchmarks for the
Indian music industry. Our association with Rahman goes back a long way. He 
embodies the Airtel
value of leadership and trust in his field of music. Music is a key platform 
for Airtel to
express the brand  exhibited through various products and associations. With 
time, he has
become synonymous with the music of our brand through the evergreen Airtel 
tune, background
scores for key advertising campaigns and his presence in music sponsorships/ 
associations.
Rahman is without doubt one of the finest artists that our country has seen and 
Airtel is proud
of the achievements of its brand ambassador in the world arena.

Speaking on Rahman as a brand ambassador, Ramnuj Shastry, CCO, Rediffusion YR, 
said, AR
Rahmans Oscar feat is just a worldwide acknowledgement of something that we 
Indians always
knew  that the man is a genius. Rahman, who has scored the Airtel tune, has 
been a brand
ambassador of Airtel for the longest time. Through the universal language of 
music, he has
always done what Airtel stands for  breaking barriers. And these awards shall 
just
re-emphasise the fact that both the brand and the brand ambassador are world 
class.
Rediffusion YR is the creative agency for Airtel.

Rahman has also been Nokias brand ambassador quite a few times. Other than 
being associated
with Nokias various products and features, he had taken up the social cause of 
eradicating
poverty and facilitating education for under-privileged children by joining 
hands with Nokia
NSeries.

Rahmans Oscar wins has Chennai FM stations and other music media in a frenzy 
to celebrate the
maestros feat. Big FM Chennai has rolled out programmes where Rahmans songs 
are being played
on-air throughout the day. Listeners are invited to call up on-air and wish 
Rahman, RJs are
meeting listeners during outdoor shows and taking their wishes on-air, and 
celebrities, too,
are dropping in with their wishes for

 Acceptance speech
 
 Best Score
 
 Before coming, I was excited and terrified. The last time I felt 
like
 that was during my marriage. There's a dialogue from a Hindi film
 called Mere paas ma hai, which means I have nothing but I have a
 mother, so mother's here, her blessings are there with me. I am
 grateful for her to have come all the way. And I want to thank the
 Academy for being so kind, all the jury members. I want to thank Sam
 Schwartz, I/D PR, all the crew of Slumdog, Mr. Gulzar, Raqueeb Alam,
 Blaaze, my musicians in Chennai and Mumbai. And I want to tell
 something in Tamil, which says, which I normally say after every

 which is Ellapugazhum Iraivanukke God is great. Thank you.
 
 Best Song
 
 I just want to thank again the whole crew of Slumdog Millionaire,
 especially Danny Boyle for giving such a great opportunity. And all
 the people from Mumbai. The essence of the film about optimism and 
the
 power of hope in our lives. All my life I had the choice between 
hate
 and love. I choose love and here I am. God Bless

[arr] Re: Boss seems very kool at the function

Yeah! The best part is that he didn't react as 'OMG I can't believe 
it' and kept his composure and delivered his speech.

I loved both of those speeches, esp the last line, I had two choices 
all my life, 'hatred and Love' I chose Love and I am here, God bless.

That quote will be remembered for a long time now!
