சூரியனின் இசைக்கதிர்கள் தாமரை மேல் ஏன் விழவில்லை?!? நடுவில் கௌதம் மேகம் மறைத்துவிட்டதா! நா.முத்துசுமார் வேற படத்துக்கு கூப்ட்டுக்கலாமே

Have heard that she writes only one song per month. And prefers to write at her place. Both would have not worked for this film.

வி.தா.வ பாடல் உருவாக்கம் இசை உருவாக்கத்தோடு உடனுக்குடன் நடந்ததாகவும், ஒரு பாடல் முடிந்தவுடன் அடுத்த பாடல் என இடைவெளியில்லாமல் சென்றதாகவும் தாமரையே குறிப்பிட்டிருந்தார் ஒரு நேர்காணலில்.

Thanks Suresh ji for the Mudhalvar Mahatma link. The second track, 'Iraivanai Varam KEttu' by Sriram Parthsarathy is the only (normal) lengthy track. It is a very good song. Seems like it was composed during 2007/2008 (as I heard the film was launched in March/April 2008). First track 'Gandhi Indru Irundhaal' is a beautiful one, even if it is a short one. Don't know who is the singer, she sang very well and has a different voice. Other songs are again too short for us to make any decision/impact. May be the film has more scope for the score rather than the songs.

"The beauty and uniqueness of these songs transcends the dated sound of much of the 1980s digital technology — state-of-the-art at its time — that was used in its rendering. These elements are incorporated so seamlessly and in such an original, throw-out-the-rulebook fashion as to keep this music vital beyond its original air-date and context"

layman gaaru, from where do you even dig these things out? Who are the guys doing these compilations? (the album titles and artwork are whacky most of the times!) Are you one among them? How do these records reach the reviewers? kOmblitt details parayu saarey.

Goutham says "Picture says it all"

Probably like this :

IR : (looking at Goutham ) Enna paa ? Pothumaa ?

Goutham : romba thanks sir.

OR

IR : Enna paakkare ? un kathaikku idhu pothaathaa ?
Goutham : pothaathu sonnaa thirumbavaa poda poreenga..
