Jai,
Even the malayalam original version, it was not like that, if you watch Kunchacko Boban's acting of that scene.
Just imagining gounds in place of fazil trying to teach acting in such a scene..
"Naan untte enna vangittu vara sonnaen"?

"For anyone who grew listening to Ilaiyaraaja's movies, scoring for specific moments is the most obvious way of scoring background music. I realized later from A.R.Rahman's and many Hollywood scores that it is okay to go with a generic mood to deliver a perfectly right score."
I think the whole philosophy of scoring for Hollywood films is very different from scoring for Indian films. That is not an apple to apple comparison at all. The way they tell the story, the way they edit the movie and the way the actors deliver is very different from our films. Additionally the emotional factor in their films is quite different and generally underplayed compared to our films. So we cannot do this comparison about 'generic mood' of the film etc.
Coming to Rahman's BGM in many of the movie I have seen, his BGM instead of being elevating becomes elevator music. Basically something going on in the background as in the elevator. Recently was watching 'Jodha Akbar' and in one scene which was emotional, the BGM conveyed nothing of the situation. It was generic Hindustani sitar playing an Hindustani ragam in the background. As I said perfect example of elevator music. Somehow in the Indian movies context I think the 'generic music' is more a cover up for lack of skill in this department than of any major philosophy.
It is perfectly true that many emotional scenes are etched in the movie goers mind without a great BGM in the background. The only difference with 'Kadhalukku Mariyadhai' climax is that along with the scene the BGM is also etched in people's mind. In how many movies do you remember the BGM along with the emotional or memorable scene. I remember so many scenes from old movies which are very memorable but I never remember their BGM at all. But even a guy like me, who doesn't concentrate on BGM, cannot take away from my mind Raja's score in many movies. I can't think of a movie like 'Aa Dinagalu' or 'Nizhalkuthu' without Raja's BGM. That is his success.
And I don't buy the argument that Rahman's BGM in DSR 'failed' because of lack of intensity in the scene. It failed because it neither elevated the scene nor was it very memorable.
super... ARR, the elevator musician... :clap:

You may be surprised but some serials do have a decent BGM score nowadays!!! Atleast sitting in another room and without listening to the dialogs I can make out what the scene is about. I can't say the same about many movies BGM scores. When I hear only the music I can't tell what the scene is about. It is just some music playing!!!
yea because tv serial MDs have skill which AR doesent have, u know
i do agree that thalaivar doesent score for every window, car door open shots etc in a movie.....he goes with the general mood of the film(using song's tunes in BGM) and sometimes goes conveniently silent on some of the scenes - short circuting the whole tedium of scoring for repeated cliches........but many of AR's BGM works like RangdeBasanti, Rockstar are a complete 180 degree turn from the IR's or any other indian composers way of scoring BGM.......
when i watched DSKR in cinemas, my North Indian(above hyderabad) frnds were wondering why 3 sons i.e men are blindly being toyed by the mother i.e a woman in the movie........the whole concept of a lady head of the family, which is only relevant in kerala culture, was very odd in Hindi..........scoring for a hindi film and tamil film is completely different - even the stories/performances need to be customised.....no wonder DSKR sank but AR is a legend in bollywood
