Nandhalala : Myskin

[Sanjeevi]

how many songs included in the movie and what are?

[AravindMano]

It's so long since someone did complete justice to Raja's songs on screen - Mysskin does that. Both 'oNNukkoNNu' and 'thAlAttu kEkka nAnum' are put to very good use that you cannot ask for more. (Should agree I liked the latter more after watching the film). Two tiny bits of 'mella oorndhu oorndhu' squeezed in as well.

Aravind, Did you watch the movie already?

[Sanjeevi]

Oh god, atleast we can console ourself that the best 2 (or 3) songs have been included in the film.

Thanks AravindMano for short note

Sanjeevi - My pleasure.

Arvind,

Waiting for your take on Raja's BGM.

For those who know Tamil, here is Cable Shankar's blog about the movie. He has a lot to say about Raja's music.

Suresh ji - என்னத்த புதுசா சொல்லிடப்போறேன்? I could almost see how kicked he is to get such space in a film - Like an important twist(I hate this word, but couldn't think of any other) in the plot is conveyed only thru his score. The film is more an assortment of moments, being a road movie, and Raja exploits it to the full extent.

At times the film itself pushes too much for it's point ('இந்த உலகம் எவ்வளவு அழகா இருக்கு பாருங்க சார்? types’) and Raja faithfully orchestrates it. I was a bit put off with this aspect of the film itself and I don't think I can blame him.

The theme piece is just brilliant. Most of the crowd stayed to listen when the credits were rolling.

Almost heard all instruments. And was a bit excited whenever guitars were employed.

Aravind,

Thanks for the review. As usual Raja orchestrates as per the vision of the director. Not sure when or whether the movie will be released in Bangalore. Will probably have to wait for Moser Baer to release the movie on CD

Great to see positive reviews from everywhere.
Aravind,
I heard that the last 45 minutes of the movie has no dialogues and Maestro has enhanced the viewing experience only with this background score. Is it true or that part is taken off? Thanks for your review.

Suresh ji - My pleasure!

V_S - No, nothing of that sort. In general the film had minimal dialogues though with the BGM taking over.
