only tamil magazines! and wat about audience? how much did they appreciate?

IMO, IRs music needs some kind of initiation, a certain deal of familiarity. I find it is true for myself, that I am able to see several unseen levels of beauty in his music, which I never noticed in 19 yrs! The fact still remains that IRs music hasnt gone down well with North Indian, not to comment on their musical taste (bhangra and remixes

) but still I dont want MRs film to sink like the magnificient Heyram. I think Heyram would have gathered more supporters and a better opening in north if its music had been a hit! not that way!....its the complexity of the movie which let it down among the people..and ir stood upto the class of the movie..u cant have fast and peppy numbers in hey raam!

how can u expect more than "isayil thodangudhamma" "nee paartha" "raam raam " "vaishanavo janatho"

**Peptobismol** · 06-04-2006, 04:50 PM

I think only nee paartha was peerless. raam raam was actually quite popular, ofcourse because of the type of music. I liked the isaiyil song but read a review which said "dull orchestration lets the song down, so the singer is left to improve the song"

And a popular song need not be fast and peppy. take lagaan or azhagi for instance. folk melodies will also work! talking of lagaan I was watching the film with few of my friends recently and they were appreciating ARRs Bgm in each and every scene. They are not ARR fans but casual listeners, but his BGMs presence was more visible. ARR really does well when it comes to grandeur and pace. IRs forte is emotions.

ir scored music for the video..they dint picturise for the song in hey raam..do u know?

and according to me "isayil thodangudhamma" is a gem and would be at the top of my favourites

**S.T.D.** · 06-04-2006, 05:13 PM

yea I know. besides IRs talent was never under any doubt and no need to convince me of his acheivement.

anyway, are u offering this as an excuse? so do u commit urself to mean that album cud have been better? then that is my whole point!

i consider hey raam is one of the best of ilayaraja ever and surprised to see his talent of composing for a video!

**9mm_fan** · 06-04-2006, 05:18 PM

anyway..mani has already done a modern Mahabaratha with ir .."thalapathy"!

dint thalapathy's rakkamma kaiya thatu become world famous?

**Beerinkol** · 06-04-2006, 09:58 PM

honestly do u beleive in that?? In that poll, ppl didn have to login. they can just put as many votes as they wish! indians dominated by the weight of their population and naturally ARRs songs came on top due to his north + south popularity. IRs fans started competing. finally they won! how many non-tamilians do u think would know rakkama song?

how many non tamilians would have read pudhumaipithan or jeyakanthan..its a shame for us to believe that tamil songs are great only if they are nationally popular!

thalapathy had great songs and music..thats it! do u say only tamilians can make it big?..only four crore people..that too in tamilnadu how many knew to vote using net in those days?

**Beerinkol** · 06-04-2006, 11:07 PM

i just showed this thread to my frnd sitting near me in my office.....he is a delhiite, and the first question he asked was Who is Ilayaraja??......i guess that xplains why ARR will be ultimately chosen for this project........ARR's saleability in the north/world is unparallel to any other MD from tamil.....i guess for a huge project like this saleability is very important....

thambi, kochikadha! you read my posts properly. nowhere I suspected the gr8ness of the songs or the talent of IR. I just elaborated who is more popular. you seem to agree but deny!

it neednot be all the 4 crore people. just a couple of jobless beggars wud be enuf on either side :P they only fuel these needless comparisons and competition. Let's appreciate both the MDs without pausing a moment on pondering who is better

Both the md's have gave their music fairly to MR movie's but today trends, with commercial success with period movie such as this ARR should be it because of his success in giving music to this genre of movies both commercial (saleable) and professionally

Not at all Nilavu

but it is one of the main imp factor .............

and it helps for the initial opening....

U know Mani got the nation wide fame.... mainly after ROJA

u should accept this... and u know the role played by ARR in it.....

one personal request....

there qare few IR fans,,.. who always deny to give ARR credit which he deserves... I still dont undertsnad Y??

**Paul Bunyan** · 07-13-2006, 07:00 AM

it would be ilayaraja to produce the hey raam effect!

just one question! how well was Heyram's BG appreciated?

**Drugmachine** · 09-23-2006, 07:00 AM

i just showed this thread to my frnd sitting near me in my office.....he is a delhiite, and the first question he asked was Who is Ilayaraja??......i guess that xplains why ARR will be ultimately chosen for this project........ARR's saleability in the north/world is unparallel to any other MD from tamil.....i guess for a huge project like this saleability is very important....

haha..with amitabh or any big stars in this project with maniratnam..arr is not necessary for saleability!

regarding that friend who asks who is ilayaraja..he knows mani right?..so he would watch the movie and get to know hoooo is ILAYARAJA
