When I saw some of the comments on amma kanakku, was expecting something really bad. But on the contrary, I found them to be VERY GOOD!! Even after 1000 films, the tunes are so fresh and so much new!...
Felt exactly the same. TT was a very violent movie and I wish IR's 1000th was for a film that is pleasing and something you would like to remember for the rest of your life. Seems like Sachin's 100th...
No new albums?? No news? Or is it just that people have moved on to other social media sites while I continue to bank on TFM Page for IR news?
Just this one statement makes me feel that this person has not understood Raja very well ;-) (BTW, raaja oru puriyaadha pudhir enbadhu ellaarukkumee therindhadhu dhaan). Also not able to appreciate...
The IR // MSV combo worked well fundamentally because IR was also a fan of MSV. He openly admits to his tunes being influenced by MSV "Anna". IR holds MSV in the highest pedestal. Not sure if Rahman...
There is a sense of sadness as the great stars of the aging (aged) generation talks about Raja's genius. The sadness is that the current generation may not have recognized Raja's genius yet. For...
Agree mappi. For me, IR's music is everything. But it does pain when I see people prefer something other than IR's musical feasts :-(
After seeing Megha, it was clear to me that Raja's approach has to change a bit in order for his music to reach a larger audience. Despite such wonderful songs in Megha - the film bombed in box...
Very interesting!!
What puts me off is that in the same vein, he also praises contemporaries such as "A.R.Rahman"!
@mappi. Super effort indeed. My 2 cents on "milestone films", the two I distinctly remember are:
#250 - naan paadum paadal
#350 - amman kovil kizhakkaalE
Balu Mahendra passes away:

He certainly was one who could get the very best out of IR.
Completely agree. As a die-hard IR fan, it pains to say that IR's children were the only ones slack in their singing in this wonderful concert. What a tragedy!
காலம் கடந்து நிற்க்கும் இசை இளையராஜாவின் இசை. இது கூட தெரியாமல் இருக்கும் ரஹ்மானை நினைத்தால் சிரிப்பு தான் வருகிறது!
Seems as though something ticked off Raja even before the interview started! No chemistry between the interviewer and Raja.
Nice initiative by Ilaiyathalam. I was a little disappointed with the first Q&A though. The reader's question was a very modest one. All that he/she wanted to know was the raga of the song confiding...
I can add two more to the list for now. Both songs featured in the first cassette release of Micheal Madana Kama Rajan, but never made it to the film
a. "maththa poovum oru peNNA aagAdha" - Chitra...
Theme1 in ASK's BGM score (http://www.backgroundscore.com/2011/05/azhagarsamiyin-kudhirai-score.html) seems to have shades of Nayagan in it (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1v0XwZ_2UY). Anyone who...
I liked the honest / straight talk of Raja. As always, he does not care to be politically correct and deviates from the norms of a sycophantic Tamil film industry speech! I'm sure as someone who is...
The man is beyond titles and awards. However here is one more small recognition for the genius:

:cool2: Same here!
Samples sound very good to me!

A little digression... Any insider information on how much is IR's contribution to his juniors' BGM or songs? Many a times, I've thought .. "wow... this has to be...
No complaints for me if Raja gives his 20th Century music :-)
