Maestro ilaiyaraaja news & titbits

[Gregorysab]

How was his movie Hope? Any chance maestro passed some adverse comment on it during rerecording? Anf our man is taking revenge?

No, in fact, Maestro liked Hope and even presented Satish with a signed copy of its score sheet - which Satish treasures a lot (according to one old post by him, which i remember reading some time ago).

My question to Satish, on facebook:

"Understandable.. But sir, a composer brings in philharmonic orchestra to compose mindboggling score that exceeds the expectations from a mythological film.. And if the jury members feel that the score was not competent, just because the theatre didnt have DTS system, whose fault is it? Was the score not good because of a technical glitch at govt.'s end? I am not blaming but trying to understand whose fault is it for ignoring a phenomenal soundtrack!"

His answer:

"We did complain, i protested. They said, they are going for digital projection from next year. All the films were judged like that. their answer was sorry sir we don't have a DTS projection provision, all the movies are watched on mono.."
