Creation of British director Danne Boyle, the movie which clinched eight Oscars, including Best Song for *Jai Ho* this year, is running full house in theatres across China. The movie which showcases lives of two kids who grow up in slums of Mumbai and one of them wins the Indian version of TV game show 'Who Wants to Be a Millionaire' has been dubbed in Chinese language for the locals. It is a proud moment for everyone of us as an Asian film got eight Oscars. Since the film tells about a rag to rich story, it struck the imagination of an average Chinese, Documentary film maker Zhang Jie said outside Chang Hong Cinema in Beijing, one of the many theatres where currently the film is showing. http://music.ndtv.com/Music_Story.aspx?id=ENTEN20090089765type=musicindia -- regards, Vithur

[arr] A.R.Rahman's blogpost in itimes
http://www.itimes.com/content.php?cid=60146 Source: Indiatimes Spirituality Column by Rahman (as told toAtul Sethi) Music is my means of connecting with the divine. What cannot be put into words, can be expressed through music. When one listens to music, one closes one’s eyes because music is an expression and celebration of the divine. There are countless names of God, which we cannot utter simultaneously, but through a soulful composition, we can experience the whole power of God’s presence amidst us. When I was composing for my first film Roja, I often went into a spiritual vacuum where nothing else mattered except the music.. At those times, I felt connected with a supreme power. That is why I credit whatever success has come my way to the Almighty. I feel that the power and grace of the divine is infinite - it is we human beings who create boundaries and try to limit this power. For artists, I believe that this manifests itself in the form of inspiration which helps you create something wonderful. I often work through the night because that is when I feel closest to the divine. The divine power works in a mysterious way to offer you experiences, which enrich and make you a better person. As a composer, I have often felt that life’s experiences - both good and bad - have greatly added to my compositions. My belief in Sufism has helped me emerge as a stronger person and has given me the equanimity to view life objectively. Often, when I visit a dargah, I feel a sense of peace enveloping me. I also believe in the power of prayer. I had an occasion to experience it for myself, when my daughter was diagnosed with a hole in her heart when she was born. However, by the time she was two, the hole vanished without any operation. It was considered nothing short of a miracle. I believe it happened because of the power of prayer. If one is sincere, no prayer goes unanswered.

Re: [arr] ::: MARUDAANI INSTRUMENTAL ::: - by Aakash Shah
Thanks for sharing Aakash. Sorry for the delayed response. I really like the way you interpret the song, rather than being just another instrumental replacing the vocals with an instrument. I liked the way you gave the song a sad and slow feel. This different interpretation makes it more pleasant. (I loved those interludes in the original from 2:00 to 2:20) But you compressed the track by 20 seconds. I would also have liked an extended version :) If you accept fan wish list - a sad version of Chura Liya Hai from Yaadon Ki Baarat. :) Thanks again On Sun, Mar 29, 2009 at 12:37 PM, Arun KB Ganesh ergu...@gmail.com wrote: Aakash, This is awesome work..

Hi, Rahman's one of the all time great theme song from film Bombay had been used in the Hollywood movie Lord of war. When we are talking about the stuffs like movies, music copied from the Hollywood. Rahman in his own way changed or re-write the history where they copied or can say legally used music composed by Rahman. If you want to know more about it please Google it. - Prithivi

I like to share one of famous Ilayaraja's composition of Pure Sooryaa Raag from the tamil film Thaai Moogaambigai (movie on goddess shakthi) where there ll be a competition in classical concert singing between Manorama Sarithaa on stage. Manorama character influenced by jealous greediness sarithaa a devotee of the goddess when she could not sing in half way of the concert due to the mix of poison in coffee done by manorama, Goddess shakthi comes to her rescue in the form of K.R.Vijaya. The wonderful thing is., the song sung by three great singers of yesteryears. S.Janaki for Saritha, P.Susheela for K.R.Vijaya S.Rajeswari for Manorama.

IndiaGlitz [Thursday, April 02, 2009] We're not being boorish in abusing people who've spread this story. Officials from Rahman's office themselves are poking fun at the media which has been floating highly unbelievable stories like Rahman endorsing Motorola. Agreed, brand AR Rahman sells. More today than ever before. And a few media houses and online websites have been using it to their advantage with stories like these. But such fakes are being rubbished by people close to the maestro himself, who IndiaGlitz spoke to. The latest in the beeline of rumours about Rahman was about him endorsing Motorola for a record price. 'Then what about his dealings with Nokia already?' his officals ask in jest. That a person cannot endorse two brand of the same field is common sense, they think. And it was less than a few months ago that Rahman, in collaboration with Nokia, brought out his mobile album, Connections, as part of his deal with them. Rahman and Nokia have earlier collaborated for his album, Pray For Me Brother. Officials in Rahman's studio say there were not even talks about an agreement with Motorola and this was a complete baseless rumour. Now, reports in various spurious sections of the media have announced that Rahman has inked a deal with Motorola for a record Rs 28 crore to take over as its youth icon and brand ambassador, instead of David Beckam. Websites and online sources mind find it interesting to publish such stories, but those who know the truth only call them 'imaginative'. http://www.indiaglitz.com/channels/telugu/article/45990.html _ News, entertainment and everything you care about at Live.com.
