IR News and Other Titbits

சமீபத்தில் பெரியார் சர்ச்சை வந்த போது ஜூனியர் விகடனில் ராசா இன்டர்வ்யூ வந்தது...ராஜாசரணம் இங்கே ஒரு த்ரெடில் அதை ஸ்கேன் செய்து இட்டிருந்தார்...அனுமதி இல்லாமல் புதுப்புது அர்த்தங்களில் வேறு பின்னணி இசை சேர்த்ததால் கோபித்துக்கொண்டு பிறகு கவிதாலயா படங்களை மறுத்ததாக அதில் ராசா சொல்லி இருந்தார்...

(என் தனிப்பட்ட அபிப்ராயப்படி, ஜூ.வி. ரிலையபிள் அல்ல...என்றாலும்...இப்படியும் ஒரு கருத்து இருக்கிறது)...

ஷங்கர், சமீபத்தில் டிவிடியில் 'பூவெல்லாம் கேட்டுப்பார்' பார்த்தேன்...நல்ல படம்...(அதாவது, அருவருப்பில்லாமல் எல்லோரும் லிவிங் ரூமில் உட்கார்ந்து பார்க்க முடிந்த, அதே சமயத்தில் அலுக்காத படம்...)

eden,
PK was a very decent movie...IMO, this Yuvan's best work till date as far as veriety goes. A very refreshing album, and a decent movie.

Rajafan,
Ek dhujE kEliyE wasn't composed by Raja...I am not sure if I would watch PPA for this...Such a hopeless movie, even with Raja's score I don't have the patience to watch it.

RS,

Stickied it.. Hope the "IR New albums" will be more focussed from now on.

[rajasaranam]

Thanks RR I was hoping for this, that all discussions regarding IR can be shifted over here

"Let's keep the "IR New albums" focussed on discussion/reviews of - as the title says - new albums of IR."
Enge..? Edhaavadhu album release aanaa thaane ? Onnum Kaanom
Guys, do we really need a thread for this if we are going to wait for so loooooooong every time to see the next album of IR ?
Where is Maaya kannadi ? where is Aadum koothu ? Where is Cheeni kum ?
Where ? Where ? What are we waiting for ??

Aadum koothu is an offbeat movie and they screened the movie in recent Film festival at Goa.
there was an article in this weeks nakeeran about the south indians being marginalised by the northies and Director cheran Fighting over it.
It seems some of the northies came and spoke to him in Hindi and Cheran kept replying to them in thamizh. they said 'hindi mein bolo' for which Cheran replied 'Yaen nee tamilla paesaen enakku hindi theriyathu' .
Even Top stars like mohanlal and mamooty expressed their worries over the way the media and officials showing unwarranted support to bollywood and northies.

Maayakannadi is ready and is a pongal release.
Cheeni kums fate is unknown.
Ajantha audio was supposed to release on dec.11th and hope it goes well if we ignore about the debacle between the producer and IR which came as a gossip that the producer allegedly told to someone that he can create 10 Isaigyanis if needed and IR said not to use his name for the movie promotion.

We need not wait for anything as he has given more than we can expect for this lifetime

oops that was my 1000th post here

PPArthangal bgm is bad at few places as KB has reused few bgm of MSV's

[irir123]

PPA - some places, KB was at his weirdest! like Rahman and Sitara sharing the same sweater in the rain etc - some idea of novelty! subtlety has never been his forte - I prefer watching his black & white classics like "edhir neechhal", "neerkumizhi" anytime

btw, recently watched "Mr and Mrs.Iyer" - though good at places, the movie sucked at many places - even Aparna Sen (a relatively better filmmaker than many others) couldnt prevent herself falling for the sterotyped depiction on Tamils

Found this article on the net about completion of "Cheeni Kum"

MUMBAI: Producers Sunil Manchanda and Gautam Kumar have completed shooting for Chini Kum, a rib-tickler featuring Amitabh Bachchan, Tabu and Paresh Rawal.



Manchanda says, "After Salaam-E-Ishq, we have completed a comedy film Chini Kum. It is a remake of South hit and is directed by Balki. The film has turned out to be quite interesting and gives the feel of the seventies. It has an universal appeal and will be liked by the young and the old. Amitabh plays a bachelor while Tabu is a spinster. Paresh Rawal is Tabu's father."



He further adds, "We are toying with the idea of making a sequel to Tere Naam, which will be titled Phir Tere Naam featuring the same team with Salman Khan in the lead. We can only be... ... sure after Salman gives his nod for the film."

thanks,

Krishnan
