[arr] Enai Kanavillaye from Kadhal Desam - Need Info
As we all know that the song Enai Kanavillaye was a masterpiece by ARR. Sung by SPB and another classical singer named O.S.Arun. I guess that was the one and only time ARR used Arun's voice for a song. I also remember that Arun mentioning that the original tune of this song was based on a pakistani ghazal or something.. I don't exactly recollect the words of Arun. The article also mentioned that Arun sang this song and ended with the pakistani song that he was referring too in that function. Do anyone have any info on this... Was it a inspiration or a? please clarify... Thanks Sath Murthy.
Re: [arr] Varaaga Nadhikarai
Even though this song has been credited as Shankar Mahadevan's first tamil song. He has already debuted in Tamil film VIP and sung Netru No No along with Dominique. May be this can be said as his first Solo song. ARR produced gems for this movie sangamam.. which was completely wasted by Suresh Krishna (another one was Baba). MSV along with Hariharan song was spectacular Wow what a combo... Sath.

Re: [arr] Download Ghajini voiceless BGM - HQ
Doesn't the 1st cue (30 seconds of Ghajini Theme) sound like a big-time homage to Ennio Morricone? That repeating 3 note motif is similar to the revenge theme in Once Upon A Time In The West (Man with the Harmonica) minus the wailing sounds and guitars. There was another homage to the same theme in Pirates of the Caribbean. This BGM set is missing the music that's just before the Run Run (Yogi) part.

[arr] Blue release date 14th August
Blue release date on 14th August. We have to wait till July for Audio Release. Any other release b4 that..? Any one hav any information. 'Blue', 'London Dreams' set to clash on August 14 Mumbai (IANS): It will be a clash of the Titans. Two of the biggest films of the year, Vipul Shah's London Dreams and director Anthony D'Souza's Blue, are set to release on the same day - August 14. To prevent the clash in dates, Vipul has been trying to convince the makers of Blue to release it a week earlier. I don't think there should be a problem. Not with Akshay (Kumar) being part of 'Blue', Vipul told IANS. Vipul had earlier taken friend Akshay into confidence and met Raj Mehta, head honcho of Asthavinayak, to request them for a change in the release date of Blue. It wasn't just any two big films clashing. It was an Akshay starrer clashing with my film. Akshay is not just a favourite actor, a close friend and business associate. His business interests are my concern. So we did request Raj Mehta to shift the date for their 'Blue'. Yes, they've agreed to release the film one week before 'London Dreams' August 7, Vipul had said. However, Anthony D'Souza, who is shooting round the clock to complete the film, insists that the release will be on schedule. As far as I know they ('London Dreams') are releasing a week before us. We're releasing on Aug 13 (a Thursday) which is a public holiday. The added holiday gives us the longest-ever weekend for a film to release and grow. Vipul, however, insists London Dreams is coming out on Aug 14. To this, Anthony D'Souza said: In that case we'll both come together. There's no way we're pre-poning 'Blue'. We want the long Independence Day weekend. Are we stupid to give it up because of competition. In any case 'London Dreams' and 'Blue' are very different films. I believe there's room for two big films when they don't clash in theme or star cast. However, Vipul seems to think it's suicidal to release both films during the same weekend. London Dreams features Ajay Devgan and Salman Khan. http://www.hindu.com/thehindu/holnus/009200903141051.htm

I feel he has a unique style which some composers like sandeep chowta and at times Shankar ehsaan loy, have tried to emulate, but they sumhow fall short on quality. I first heard Rahman's music in Roja, though at that time I was too young to appreciate how good it was at the time. After listening to Dil Se..i was really hooked. But what really made me a huge fan of his music was the album 'Taal'. For a long time i thought that Taal's depth, diversity and scale would never be matched..and I was almost right The only person who could outd Taal was Rahman himself. Its been quite a journey for the maestro. Although some of his albums have been quite pathetic (One 2 Ka four, Doli Sajake Rakhna, Mangal pandey..which was a disaster)..and some which bordered greatness (Thakshak, Saathiya, Zubeida)..his music has always offered new sounds and melodies. . I wasnt too impressed with Rangeela..tho it was his first purely hindi album. His greatest works include, apart from the ones i mentioend earlier Swades, Lagaan, Meenakshi, Jodha Akbar and several others A little bit about myself...i was a student of indian classical music for several years when i was younger..thus Rahmans music appealed to me even more. Talking of recent albums, well Delhi-6 is such a great album..it ranks alongside Taal and Dil se in my books. I sincerely feel that Jai Ho did not deserve an oscar. Being an ardent fan of Rahman I feel that he has made several much better songs in the past. Im extremely happy for him, and feel that his award was long due..but It would have been better if he'd got the award for some other song. (eg Luka Chuppi from RDG or Rehna Tu frm Delhi-6...which are both infinetly better numbers) The greatest strength of Rahman is that he is always up to date with technology involving music. Always experimenting with different instruments, creating new sounds and composing new melodies is what makes him such a winnerThere is a great difference in the Rahman of Roja and Bombay, and now. Lastly, I would also like to say that apart from Rahman I simply love Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy's music ..they are No.2 on my list of best composers in the country. .. I do not understand any south indian language as im from Mumbai, so pardon me if I have missed out on Rahmans Tamil films( I know there are many !) Anish.

[arr] And The Award Goes To
http://backgroundscore.blogspot.com/2009/03/and-award-goes-to.html A.R..Rahman after winning every possible international award for his background score in 'Slumdog Millionaire', is now winning every possible Hindian Best Background Score award for 'Jodha Akbar'. Given the length and the drama of Jodha Akbar, it is evident that Rahman has worked really hard on the background score of 'Jodha Akbar' and he himself admitted he composed more than 100 cues for Jodha Akbar's background score. But as I already mentioned here, though Jodha Akbar has some great background scoring moments, as a whole, Jodha Akbar's score is not Rahman's best in 2008. In 2008, Rahman did background score for 'Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na', 'Jodha Akbar', 'Ghajini' and 'Yuuvraaj'. I haven't seen 'Yuuvraaj', so can't really comment on its score, but Ghajini's score was too loud. Unfortunately, Rahman has gone Harris Jeyaraj way in its loudness, and it may also be because the movie director is the same A.R.Murugadass, who directed the Tamil version. In the interview with Raihana in the Rahmania show, Murugadass confirmed that it is he who wanted the score to sound like the way it is in the movie. Rahman delivered what Murugadass demanded and hence the loudness. But all that is an excuse, I thought Rahman with his influence would reduce the loudness and make the movie sound saner. There is so much scope in Ghajini for a much deeper and intelligent scoring, which Rahman didn't make full use of. Finally, 'Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na' is the movie which has a consistently good background score throughout the movie. Moving away from A.R.Rahman, of all the movies that I got a chance to watch in 2008, two movies had background score that is worth talking about - Mithya and Aamir. Though the main theme sounds heavily inspired from the theme of Requiem for Dream, Amit Trivedi did a good job in pushing the raw energy, pace, tension and the suspense with his score in Aamir. If the score is just as good as the movie, then my best background score award for 2008 goes to Mithya. Beautifully subtle and adequately expressive is the score for Mithya. Evoking the feel of classic Nino Rita's Godfather score, Sagar Desai’s score for Mithya, to me is the best of 2008.

last days i was visiting Rome (Italy). there were some small experiences of SDM/ARR i want to share. once while walking on the famous Via del Corso street i suddenly heard someone singing ringa ringa. as i looked there were two Italian guys (both probably in their 40s) passing by, one singing ring ring ringa, ring ring ringa to the other. i was so amazed and tried to hear more however could not get what they talked after that (in Italian language). and after that they started discussing Latika (Freida Pinto) :-) probably they were just coming out of the cinema as it was located on the same street a little ahead. perhaps one of them was describing the other how he liked the songs etc. i was so amazed that how general western audience liked the music. i also realized how catchy ringa ringa is for westerners compared to other songs of SDM. may be if i had heard them a little ago i found them talking about Jai ho and others as well. later benefiting from my visit i took some time to experience watching SDM there (in cinema). although I had already seen it twice (thanks to piracy) but not on big screen as it was not released here in Denmark until recently. SDM was released in Italy on 5 December under the title The Millionaire. i watched it in a fully packed theater. and do i need to add that not a single person left the hall until Jai ho was completely ended? i think no. watching the experience was overwhelming and i must say altogether new compared to watching it on small screen. the BGM was so exotic and thumping which added immense energy to scenes. talking about the songs besides O saya especially the way Mausam escape was used was truly awesome. i really loved to see that they used the best of the lot (Mausam escape) twice. it is so energetic and thumping especially in the second scene where first it runs lightly in background as Jamal sees Latika on platform and then suddenly starts loudly as Saleem and his guys run to get Latika. i also noticed that when Mausam escape is played in the first scene (kids escaping) the sitar is played in the background, i mean it is not very prominent as if it was dimmed but in the second scene it is loud and very clear. the second best piece i liked was when Liquid dance is played, loud and right in your face, un-ignorable. also i noticed that there is a difference between versions of Riots on CD and in the movie. in the later there is some additional instrument, like piano, playing throughout, which is missing in CD version. also on my way to Rome (in Munich) i noticed an article on SDM's Oscars in a German newspaper (called Bild) which i found interesting somehow. here is a scan of it: http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/7792/arrpaper.jpg the article circles ARR's in photo. it mentions him with full name Allah Rakha Rahman all the way. here is the translation i managed to come up with: Composer Alla Rakha Rahman (43) is the son of an Indian left politician. wow... did we know that? lol. or perhaps it is translation error. Composer Allah Rakha Rahman (best film music) should become a doctor, however failed (or dropped) in exam. wow.. did we know that? at least not me. The title song Jai ho (Best song) was written for the film Yuvraaj (Remake of Rain Man) nevertheless its director did not want it. quite right that Ghai did not want it however it is a surprise to me that Yuvraaj was a remake of Rain Main. - Jahanzeb

[arr] ARR-Catch him if U can!
ARR-Catch him if U can! IndiaGlitz [Tuesday, March 17, 2009] Considering the demand for his compositions, getting A.R.Rahman on board for a project was never an easy task for the producers back in India. Now after his twin-Oscar triumph, it has become all the more difficult. In all probabilities the music maestro will be seen doing less music for Indian films. Well this situation is due to the newly formed upsurge in the international music markets for his contributions. The celebrated pop star Akon has now collaborated with Rahman for a song titled ‘Beautiful’. A.R.R is also being featured in the video of this track along with the American Pop singer Colby O’ Donis and Canadian hip hop artist Kardinal Offishall. The other person to soon work with the music wizard will be Nicole Scherzinger, the lead singer of the girl band “Pussycat Dolls”. The band had already worked on their English version of the song ‘Jai Ho’ from ‘Slumdog Millionaire’. It looks like Nicole has taken a great liking for Rahman’s kinda music.She will soon start the work on a full album with Rahman. There are also murmurs going around that the composer will be working with the gorgeous lady vocalist from India and a video will also be shot in the typical Bollywood style. http://www.indiaglitz.com/channels/hindi/article/45648.html -- regards, Vithur
[arr] A break from new ARR albums
As much as I look forward to new ARR music, I'm going to value the gap between D6 and the next one, which is probably going to be Blue in July. This will allow me to really assimilate all the great music he has dished out in the past year, alow time to listen to his earlier albums, and also listen to other artists' works, who I have been neglecting. Nevertheless, I'm eagerly awaiting Blue and all the rest of them lined up!
[arr] After Slumdog Millionaire, the number of searches fo r Rahman has gone up,” Thenappan says.
Wise in the ways of personal attraction, and knowing that beauty resides in the beholder’s eye, the website also slips in the facial templates of Aravind Adiga, A.R. Rahman, Sabeer Bhatia and Narain Karthikeyan for good measure. “After *Slumdog Millionaire*, the number of searches for Rahman has gone up,” Thenappan says. “Although I think it’s more to just find people who look like him, not for marriage or anything like that.” http://www.livemint.com/2009/03/17211136/Love-in-the-time-of-geometry.html -- regards, Vithur

SDM was released in Italy on 5 December under the title The Millionaire. i watched it in a fully packed theater. and do i need to add that not a single person left the hall until Jai ho was completely ended? i think no. watching the experience was overwhelming and i must say altogether new compared to watching it on small screen. the BGM was so exotic and thumping which added immense energy to scenes. talking about the songs besides O saya especially the way Mausam escape was used was truly awesome. i really loved to see that they used the best of the lot (Mausam escape) twice. it is so energetic and thumping especially in the second scene where first it runs lightly in background as Jamal sees Latika on platform and then suddenly starts loudly as Saleem and his guys run to get Latika. i also noticed that when Mausam escape is played in the first scene (kids escaping) the sitar is played in the background, i mean it is not very prominent as if it was dimmed but in the second scene it is loud and very clear. the second best piece i liked was when Liquid dance is played, loud and right in your face, un-ignorable. also i noticed that there is a difference between versions of Riots on CD and in the movie. in the later there is some additional instrument, like piano, playing throughout, which is missing in CD version. also on my way to Rome (in Munich) i noticed an article on SDM's Oscars in a German newspaper (called Bild) which i found interesting somehow. here is a scan of it: http://img7. imageshack. us/img7/7792/ arrpaper. jpg the article circles ARR's in photo. it mentions him with full name Allah Rakha Rahman all the way. here is the translation i managed to come up with: Composer Alla Rakha Rahman (43) is the son of an Indian left politician. wow... did we know that? lol. or perhaps it is translation error. Composer Allah Rakha Rahman (best film music) should become a doctor, however failed (or dropped) in exam. wow.. did we know that? at least not me. The title song Jai ho (Best song) was written for the film Yuvraaj (Remake of Rain Man) nevertheless its director did not want it. quite right that Ghai did not want it however it is a surprise to me that Yuvraaj was a remake of Rain Main. - Jahanzeb Add more friends to your messenger and enjoy!

The infectious dholak rhythm with the Mast Qalandar like melody (not at all copied) makes this song my very favorite from Sangamam. I love it when the second interlude adds this incredibly infectious ghungru rhythm, very similar in pattern to the Taal Se Taal mila, Hai Na, Chale Chalo Mitwa ghungru tracks, taken away, then back again for the final portion of the song. Just pure magic. I truly with Shankar M would sing for ARR again. Heard that ARR said that Mani's next would be kind of similar to the style of Sangamam (folk, semi classical), so we can really look forward to that.

[arr] Killing them softly...
Killing them softly... Deepa Natarajan I shouldnt do something to disappoint the audience as well as myself A R Rahman His silence speaks volumes, and his peaceful smile can melt millions of hearts. But everyone knows music maestro Allah Rakha Rahman is known for more than that. With soulful notes that strike a magical chord with the audience, time and again, it wouldnt be incorrect to say that whatever he touches, turns into gold. The Oscar-winner took time out in between a shoot to speak to Metrolife. The Oscar frenzy is yet to die down with the entire world wanting for more of the man. So, what does he think of his journey so far? He thinks a lot and smiles, The progress has been good, but very strange actually. He treasures the National Award he won for Roja as much as the Academy Award. It was an honour to win the National Award for my first film itself, he says. But winning an Oscar feels nice too as it was the first film I got nominated for. One thing that the genius is careful about, is to not disappoint his fans. I am very careful about not doing things, he smiles and adds, Because I shouldnt do something to disappoint the audience, as well as myself. I want to satisfy myself as an artist. Currently, the man is working on the music of three films Mani Ratnams Ravana, Shankars Enthiran (Robot) and Anthony DSouzas Blue. The music of these films will be similar to what I have been doing all these years, is all he says. How does he feel about Jai Ho making its way to the Billboards. It was planned because we wanted to keep the Slumdog fever going. Thats why the Pussy Cat Dolls was chosen for it, he replies. One cant help but ask him about his experience of working with Kylie Minogue in Blue. Kylie is like a child, he says. She is very sweet. I actually wanted to make her sing in Hindi but I fell ill at that point of time. He adds, That song was recorded just a day after the BAFTAs. The soft-spoken man has had a close association with Bangalore. I get so angry when people perform here and dont come to Chennai, he jokes. Is he referring to any artiste in particular? No, I am just joking, he laughs. But there is a great creative vibe here. He recollects the time he performed in the City. I played here only once, under very strange circumstance, with the rain falling over a crowd of thousands. So when do the fans in Bangalore get to see him perform again? Oh, very soon, he pauses, and laughs mischievously, Once the recession is over. But he assures that he will perform in the City soon. Its been a long journey for Rahman. Ask him to recollect one memorable moment, he thinks about his pilgrimage to Ajmer Sharief, It was more awkward actually. It was supposed to be a secret visit with family, but the moment I got down there, I got a shock seeing hundreds of people, he says. And finally, which album of his, has been the closest to his heart? He answers softly, Roja. http://deccanherald.com/Content/Mar182009/metro-wed20090317124607.asp

[arr] A Rahman jugalbandi with Rafi
A Rahman jugalbandi with Rafi For 27-year-old Mohammed Rafi and his wife Mehnaz, it was a once-in-a-lifetime moment as Oscar winner A R Rahman visited them at their home in Devinagar on Tuesday afternoon to give away an award PRIYANKA NAHATA AND VINESH VASANTH BETRABET It was an all-too-brief meeting at their home just after noon on Tuesday, but for Mohammed and Mehnaz Rafi its afterglow is something they will cherish for life as a sepia moment. Oscar-winning music director A R Rahman stopped by at RMV Cluster, Devinagar, to say hello and hand over an award to the couple, after they had won a lucky-draw contest sponsored by a cell phone company for which Rahman has done the ad jingles. Sorry I dont have any time for bakra calls, that was exactly what Mohammed Rafi, an engineer, said when he first got a call that told him of Rahmans visit to his house. Rafi, all of 27-years, says, Usually it is in a five-star hotel or an airport that we bump into celebrities, but today it was my own house where I hosted one of Indias greatest musicians, A R Rahman. It was on March 15 that the Rafis were intimated about the award they had won and Rahmans arrival. Rafi had to postpone an important official visit to Delhi. And with just two days left for his arrival, there were many doubts in the couples mind. We were very excited but at the same time a bit apprehensive about our small house. We were wondering what to do to make this moment memorable for him, says Rafi. A lot of preparation went in terms of security and the whole apartment was whitewashed, he adds. A GIFT FOR MAESTRO Rahman, dressed in his usual attire of a Polo T-shirt, jeans and a blazer came surrounded by guards and the marketing executives of the company which had sponsored his visit to Rafis house. He arrived at 12.05 pm and straight away went and shook hands with Rafi and said, This is Rahman. I am sure you must be Rafi. The two had a private chat where they spoke about each others families and jobs. Rahman then went on to narrate his experience when he visited Ajmer recently. His eyes sparkling, Rafi goes on to say, We offered him a special Strawberry-Vanilla cake. It was homemade and he appreciated its taste and complimented my wife. I didnt want to indulge in any official talk about how he felt winning the Oscars and which are his forthcoming films. We get enough to read about it everyday so we chose to about work and family. EXCLUSIVE PRESENT Rafi, although not a very big fan of Rahman, knew that he was a very religious person and Rahman gleefully accepted the two presents which the Rafis gave him. One was a table-top calendar of religious symbols and the other was a prayer book in which a few verses extracted from the holy Quran had been inscribed. After having opened the first one in everyones presence, Rahman refused to open the other one saying that it was an exclusive present and he would like to keep it just for himself. Whatever you do, may God bless you with success in all your endeavours, were the words on the prayer book. MEMORIES FOR POSTERITY A stage had been set up in our apartment and we were supposed to walk hand in hand with Rahman to the podium but that never happened, says a slightly disappointed Rafi. Although not many people knew about the visit, the news soon spread fast and before no time a crowd had gathered. As Rehman arrived in a Benz, children and elders alike mobbed him for autographs and posed with him for a few photographs too. Everyone around was shouting Jai Ho. The Rafis couldnt manage to ask all the thousand unformed questions reeling in their heads but they did ask Rehman about his nickname Isai Puyal. Pat came the answer: It means A musical storm. We did not even get a chance to hold his hand and walk down the apartment or to sit on the couch for an interview as planned earlier. Everything turned disorderly, says Mehnaz Rafi. It was a short-lived but intense moment of joy for the couple as Rahman soon left for an ad shoot.

Re: Re: [arr] Remembering the songs from Taj Mahal
Why Tajmahl songs went unnoticed; obviously the movie did not do well is the primary reason. Apart from this, ARR was giving a tough competition to himself by having no. of releases at the same time and apparently, Mudhalvan audio was also released within a span of 1 week. May be in the years to come, we can see the same topic with a change of album name ie Tajmahal to Yuvraaj. What you think guys Krishna.

Re: [arr] Jai Ho -- Congress Theme
Please refrain from commenting on somebody without knowing the complete reality. He had strongly denied to compose when the party had approached to compose music. So the congress had approached T-Series to get the rights. --- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, Adithya Sairam rahmaniac2...@... wrote: i really dont appreciate rahman getting mingled with politics. he is a one man army and should stay that way Adithya From: Vikram Kumar rah...@...

Re: [arr] A break from new ARR albums
Agree. Just this morning I popped the CD of Indira into my CD player. A beautiful albu with soulful melodies - special mention to Thoda Thoda malarndadu enna by SPB and Nila Kaigiradu ( both versions). My drive to office is typically 10 minutes long, but I had a tough time getting out of the car this morning and actually sat in the parking lot waiting for a song to finish. I was studying for my 12th standard exminations when this album released and I could actually recollect some of the stuff I had studied with the earphones plugged in and this album o repeat. I appreciate the break in ARR albums more than I thought I would!

This will allow me to really assimilate all the great music he has dished out in the past year, alow time to listen to his earlier albums, and also listen to other artists' works, who I have been neglecting. Nevertheless, I'm eagerly awaiting Blue and all the rest of them lined up!
