[arr] Oru Kanavin Isai (ARR's biography in Vikatan) - Week 3 - Scans and Translation
Hi all, This is from week-3! Week 03, Part 01 http://www.flickr.com/photos/aravind_am/3467985452/ Week 03, Part 02http://www.flickr.com/photos/aravind_am/3467171791/Week 03, Part 03http://www.flickr.com/photos/aravind_am/3467985682/ Translation Week 3 At a time when A.R.Rahman’s father R.K Shekar what working round-the-clock, he never cared about food or sleep. He used to spend all his time at the recording studio, having just tea and biscuits. Sometimes, he used to suffer from severe stomach ache, late in the nights. Unable to bear the pain, he would just lie down with a pillow pressed tight on his stomach. He would relax and sleep after the killing pain subsided. Barely an hour after he slept it would have already dawned. With the thought that, musicians would be waiting at the studio from 7 am itself, he would wake up and rush for the recording. He didn’t have time to even consult a doctor regarding his stomach ache. He would neither tell anyone about this! The other sad story is that, though an amazing composer, Shekar had very few opportunities to compose alone for films, and he just worked for other composers. He gave 10 beautiful songs for the film “Pazhasiraja”. The song “Siragatru veeNoru kochhu thumbi” sung by AM Raja and S.Janaki, and the lullaby “Muththey va va va” sung by P.Susheela are a pleasure to listen to, even now! The song “Sahibe sahibe a-salam aleikum” became a trendsetter. After a long break, came the movie “Aayesha”. The song “yathrakaara povuga povuga” sung by P. B. Sreenivas for that film is one of PBS’s best songs. But, how long can someone financially sustain without getting proper composing opportunities? Days passed, and the cruel hands of the disease clutched RK Shekar tightly. He became bedridden. The images of the young kid, Dileep, visiting his dad every day at the hospital became permanently etched in Dileep’s memory. Dad is lying on the hospital bed, surrounded by his assistants. They note down on the music notes dictated by Shekar. A few directors come in and tell him “We feel bad to tell this now… But, our film scores will get completed only if you come. Not worrying about the agony caused by the disease, he listens to the tunes and writes notes for music arrangements. Popular lyricist, Sri Kumaran comes and holds Shekar’s hands in gratitude, and says “Get well soon, and come back. Let’s make music together”! Theirs was a successful combo, and had given some superb songs. Shekhar returns a dry smile in return, for he was well aware of the seriousness of his disease. The kid, Dileep, watches all this with a mix of amazement and confusion. Dileep couldn’t understand what happened to his dad all of a sudden, for he would always be busy like a bee. All he knew was that his dad was a good musician. The collection of musical instruments and music-records formed Dileep’s world. Dileep believed that his dad would get well soon, and would be back to his music work very soon. But, that was not to be. Shekar’s health condition kept deteriorating each day. Shekar got married only when he was 31, at Thiruppathi. He got married to Kanchana, and had 4 kids, back-to-back – Kanchana, Dileep, Bala and Rekha. Shekar had been making so many innovations in Malayalam film music industry. It was he, who introduced SP Balasubramanyam and Bala Murali Krishna to that industry. No one could even imagine penetrating into Malayalm music industry dominated by legendary singer KJ Jesudas. The song “neeyendre velicham” composed by Shekar and sung by P Susheela for the 1972 movie “Miss Mary” is still one of the most famous devotional songs in Kerala among all the devotees of Mother Mary. The curiosity and eagerness of Rahman towards new technology, was evident in Shekar in those days. He often went to Singapore and hunted for new musical instruments and latest innovations in recording techniques. When we were all bored listening to the same voices, it was Rahman who broke the trend and introduced many new voices, and took the listening experience to a new level. RK Shekar was a forerunner for Rahman in that front too. In those days, singing for movies was no ordinary feat. Recording studios were like iron-fortresses. It was not possible for anyone to get in so easily. Shekar opened the doors of the fortress for new singers. He introduced many new singers like Bramhanandan, Sadhanandan, Sudha Varma, Gopalakrishnan, Soman, Ponguntham Ravi, Jayalakshmi, Kasthoori Shankar, Manoharan, Ambly, Jayashreee. That legacy of encouraging new talent continues through A.R.Rahman. RK Shekar composed 110 songs in Malayalam. Singers like Jesudas, Jayachandran, P Susheela, Vani Jaaram have sung several wonderful songs in his music. Even today, Shekar’s songs are mesmerizing the people of Kerala. The last movie which had Shekar’s music was “Chottanikkara Amma”, which was released in 1976. The song “Manasu manasinRae kaadhil” from that album, plays

She is soft-spoken. Put the two singers together on a show and what you get in return is a lot more thanAbhijeet Bhattacharyaentertainment. For, Abhijeet Bhattacharya then is at his witty best and Alka Yagnik gets back at him with a fiesty style. The singers are yet again playingjudges, on a music reality show for children for which they are presently conducting auditions across the country. We bring to you a sneak peek of the leg pulling, PJs, friendly taunts and more, from the audition spots, that they say is the basis of their âstrong friendship.â âAbhijeet keeps bugging me, but I always forgive him,â smiles Alka. To which, Abhijeet laughs, âActually she falls short of words to pull my leg. And then, I wear stockings, which donât let her reach my legs.â Says Alka, âInitially I used to listen to him but now I have stopped paying heed to what he says. And, at times when he goes overboard, I ask him to shut up.â But what about the times when the bantering results into a verbal duel? âThen, I prove my point like an advocate would,â says Abhijeet. Adds Alka, âI just listen to him like a judge would.â Okay, and how is it training and judging children, we ask them. Says Alka, âItâs quite easy to work with kids. Their talent is raw and that helps in experimenting with their voice. However, too much pressure can be bad for them,â says Alka. As for Abhijeet, he decides to play the prankster. He sends in a boy dressed as a girl to the girlsâ audition room (see pic on top right) where Alka is conducting auditions. After a while Alka sees through the prank and sends the boy out with a message for Abhijeet. âBahar ja ke bata do ki yeh sab harkatein mere saath nahi chalengi.â She adds, âAbhijeet ka dimag bohot shaitani hai.â We change the topic and get the two to talk on the Indian music industry finally finding its well-deserved place on the international map, little knowing, that this too would lead to an argument. Says Abhijeet, âThere is no need for Indians to rejoice at Rahmanâs (AR Rahman) Oscar win. Slumdog Millionaire wasnât an Indian movie, yeh toh kewal haddi milne se khush hone wali baat ho gayi. Its music was fairly average.âAlka (sang Ringa Ringa in the flick) retorts, âRahman is a world-class musician and he should have got international recognition much before. Slumdog's music is very good. Yahan toh sau muh aur sau baatein hoti hain. India would flourish more if Indians donât squander their energy in mindless criticism or gossip.â And yet, in between all this both âpartners in fightâ insist that this nok-jhonk strengthens their friendship, besides creating a positive atmosphere on the show. âThereâs so much pressure on us and tempers run high when the show is on, so I feel such interactions help in keeping the spirits high,â says Abhijeet, adding, âSometimes, it seems the competition is between Alka and me.â Says Alka, âWe donâ t come prepared to be sarcastic.â Hmm... so how about exercising their sharp wit on a comedy show? âThatâ s a good idea,â says Abhijeet and as usual Alka doesnât approve of Abhijeetâs idea! Well, friends donât have to agree on everything, right?Â

[arr] Rahmans dream
Musician AR Rahman thinks that Indians should stop talking about their traditions and start contributing to its greatness. In an interview with CNN-IBN, he talked about his music conservatory, where he will groom the next breed of composers. We only celebrate what is tradition which is great, which is fantastic. But what have you contributed? demanded Rahman. Rahman founded the K M Conservatory to churn out students with musical excellence matching International standards. Composers from here like me and Ilayaraja sir, anybody, who wants to work with an orchestra with full symphony orchestra - we had to go abroad and spend thousands of dollars, explained Rahman. However, today students from India and abroad can come to the K M Conservatory and learn both Indian and Western classical music, including a range of musical instruments from the cello to the drums. There is a preparatory course for beginners, a foundation one for serious pursuers, apart from this there is also a three year degree course in collaboration with the Middlesex University. Most importantly, the conservatory also aims at reviving dying musical traditions. Though we want to concentrate on instruments that are dying like violin and brass and woodwinds and everything, people are more interested in piano and composition and voice and all that stuff. We are also looking at areas where we don't have players like brass and woodwinds and so many instruments for which we used to have players before, in the older generation but not anymore, he said. http://www.planetradiocity.com/musicreporter/gossip.php?gossipid=1117

How was that experience?* I sang *Genda Phool* in *Delhi 6*, and am also singing in Mani Ratnam's * Raavan*. I recorded *Genda Phool* during the day but the song in *Raavan*, I had to record at night. I did not get time to practice for that. It's not that Rahman works only at night. If there is work pressure, he records during the day too. But he prefers dubbing during the night. Rahman was very nice to me. He sings a song and shows you. He also gives you a detailed briefing -- like if he wants to hear your laughter in the song, and all those details. He appreciates your work if you have sung well and pushes you to do better. http://specials.rediff.com/movies/2009/apr/13sd5-rekha-bhardwaj-on-music-and-more.htm
