Hello dear Rahmaniacs, The site will have the following sections. Their status:
Main Page: 100 % Biography: 100 % Articles: 100 % - Music Reviews: 100 % Albums (Discography): 80 % More: 20 % - Downloads: 75 % - About Us: 0 % - Support Us: 0 % - Search: 90 % - Contact Us: 100 % - Misc ... 0 % So, the main sections are almost completed. My classes begin on 21'st Aug and I will be extremely busy in the upcoming week. I still have to do a lot of work. Moreover, I have technical problems with the PERL modules installed on the server. Especially, the "IMAGE::MAGICK" (mind the 'K') module that dynamically creates thumbnails for uploaded album images. (I cant manually edit each and every album image with photoshop !). Please, if someone from the group is familiar with PERL module installation, contact me ASAP. I cannot project the date of release but I will do my best to make this dream come true. A little secret that I need to vent out - I will be posting a proposal for official editors for the site in next few weeks. I need support of a few dedicated fans in this group who can contribute some time (very little). More details coming soon... Unfortunately, the server will be upgraded in October since the lease term ends in September 2005. But I guess, it wont be a big issue as far as launching the site is concerned. I need your support. Please post any comments/suggestions. Long live ARR !

I've read many discussions about ARR in this group and I feel extremely happy and proud to be a part of this "Ardent" fans of our Boss, "A R Rahman"!!! > > I have met ARR twice in my life (till now). I will share those precious moments with you all. > > #1) I had been at the "India Pistols" ground, Chennai, on the rehersal night before the "Unity of Light" programme on Feb 21,2003. Our Boss came down from the stage (for his dinner @ 11:30 PM) and went into a small tent behind the stage. Me and my brother followed him behind the stage and waited outside the tent for more than an hour to see him closely. Finally he came out of the tent and gave his "Dharshan". It was his greatness to put his Autograph on a visiting card !!! > > #2) There was a function last month to honour the legend music director of 60s/70s in Tamil - M.S.Viswanathan. Maestro Illayaraja also presided. Newspapers gave advertisments that our Boss would also come. But I thought, he would'nt come, amidst his tight schedule. But to every one's surprise, he came to the stage and there was a lot of Buzz after his arrival. (I will describe the speeches of people on the dias and our boss in my forthcoming mails). > > And now comes the interesting part...... I wanted to take a snap standing near our Boss. Inspite of very tight security, me and my brother, squeezed on to the stage and succeeded in taking snaps, standing besides him. Wow !!! What a moment it was.!!! > > (I feel, the above two points qualifies me to be in this group !!!). > > Right...... I have a suggestion now. Why don't we host an official & dedicated website for our Boss ???. For instance for Illayaraja, there is a very professional website: www.raajangham.com. It has lot of articles, samples, News about Raja. For Superstar Rajnikanth, there is www.rajnifans.com. Here, it has stylish video clippings from his movies. > > Why don't we have these kind of a site for our boss ??? Please pour in some ideas how we can go about this. I am sure, we the "hardcore" ARR fans, can definitely make it happen !!! > > Cheers, > Ram > > > > --------------------------------- > Start your day with Yahoo! - make it your home page > > This August, Discover the Birth of Your Independence > and The Magic of A.R.Rahman's Music in > Mangal Pandey - The Rising > http://www.risingthefilm.com > http://www.mangalpandeythefilm.com > Music released: Jul 14, 2005 Movie releases: Aug 12, 2005 > > Explore, Experience, Enjoy A.R.Rahman - The Man, The Music, The Magic. > Only at arrahmanfans - The definitive A.R.Rahman e-community. > > Homepage: http://www.arrahmanfans.com > Admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > To Subscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > To Unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > > > > --------------------------------- > YAHOO!
