South Indian Actor Arya opens Production House

South Indian actor Arya has opened his own production house The Show People, its first project being Padi Thurai. He has the shared the responsibility of the films among friends and other industry people.

Currently busy acting in a Telugu flick Madrasa Pattinam, Chikku Bukkku, Arya seems to the person who likes to concentrate on one thing at a time.
Though the talented actor has started his production house, he just wants to act as a producer in it, rather than acting in the films churned out by his production house.

He says, “I have started a production house- The Show People, along with my friends. I will be producing three films per year. My first film will be Padi Thurai. Bala assistant Saga is directing this film. Ilayaraja is composing the music. New face Abhishek is doing the lead role and Nadodigal Anaya is pairing with him. Saga has asked me to do a role in this film but I strongly rejected this idea. My only role in this film is that of a producer.”

And their respective fans being as civilized as here. Maybe raja_fan would have tried it somewhere else and come back here, knowing fully well this is the only place where even posters like him will be tolerated.

Again a personal attack rather than discussing facts in this forum !

And you are talking about tolerance and the treatment meted out to IR !

Curious question - who nominates albums for the Grammy's?

[baroque]

Record companies like Sony, Time etc.. or even Individuals can submit their work with a physical copy for reviews.
Albums or single songs/tracks they can submit.
Ravi Shankar's WEST MEETS EAST is a nice album with Yehudi Menuhin.
It is my favorite , enchanting poorya dhanashri.


Zakir hussain's Global drum Project, I need to search at the Library this evening.
My thanks to Shri.L.Subramaniam for introducing me to the wonderful Yehudi Menuhin, Stephene Grappelli during 90s at Madras .... I bought couple of their fusion jazz albums.



I am Very Happy for A.R.Rahman.
vinatha.

Usha,

Don't worry. raja_fan has clearly proved his posts are worth ignoring. That is what I intend to do unless he starts posting something related to music.

Not a justification for IR's eccentricities, but this report gives some insight as to how circumstances can push one to making certain statements :

கடந்த சில தினங்களுக்கு முன் இசைஞானி இளையராஜா வீட்டில் திரண்டார்கள் பத்திரிகையாளர்கள். அத்தனை பேரையும் எதிர்பார்க்காத ராஜா, என்ன இத்தனை பேர் திரண்டு வந்திருக்கீங்க என்று ஆச்சரியத்தை வெளிப்படுத்தினார். தேசிய விருது பெற்ற அவரை வாழ்த்தவும் அவரது கருத்தைக் கேட்கவும் கூடிய கூட்டம் இது.

ஆனால் ஆர்வக்கோளாறில் முண்டியடித்து முன்னேறியவர்கள் அவரது வீட்டில் அழகுக்காக வைக்கப்பட்டிருந்த பல பொருட்களை உடைத்துத் தள்ளிவிட்டார்கள். இது ராஜாவை கொஞ்சம் கவலைப்பட வைத்திருக்கிறது. அதைக்கூட மன்னிக்கலாம். வாழ்த்த வந்தவர்கள் கேட்ட கேள்விகளும் அவருக்கு ஆத்திரத்தை வரவழைத்துவிட்டது.

ஒரு நிருபர் "ஒரு படத்துக்கு நீங்க நாலு பாட்டு போட்டா அதில ஒன்றுதானே ஹிட் ஆகுது. ஏன் எல்லா பாட்டும் ஹிட் ஆக மாட்டேங்குது?" என்றெல்லாம் கேள்வி கேட்டு அனல் மூட்டினார். இதுபோன்ற பல கேள்விகள் அவரை எரிச்சல் மூட்ட, நல்ல நல்ல கேள்விகளுக்குகூடச் சுள்ளென்று பதில் சொன்னார் இளையராஜா.
