AR Rahman's Tamil Blockbuster "BOYS"

Rahman's much anticipated "Boys" is set to release soon and everyone is keen on finding out more about this album. Who are the singers? What are the soundtracks like? When is the release date? Will the album be delayed? If anyone has any idea; please post here....

Also; use this thread to discuss this album..

Here is what i found::

Typical of Shankar, the director is not prepared to say much about the film at this point. However, it is known that the film will be very youthful, almost teeny-bop, in content, with the majority of the cast being in the 16-23 age group.

Shankar, apparently, has decided to cast all new faces in his film – and the younger the better.

In fact, a mention in various Tamil periodicals, and an accompanying advertisement to the effect that Shankar was looking for new faces, has created a headache of sorts for the producers. Curriculums vitae have been pouring in to the Surya Movies post box ever since the ad and the story ran in the vernacular press – and last heard from, the flood shows no signs of abating.

Curiously enough, the ad appears – thanks to emails and discussion groups – to have reached an audience abroad as well, with the result that newer batches of applications have US, British and suchlike stamps on them, which suits the producer and director fine since the film does incorporate a lot of NRI faces.

For Shankar, Boys will be a return to romance after Kadhalan, and to comedy after the Aishwarya Rai-Prashanth starrer Jeans. Though the film will feature fresh – and ergo, inexpensive – faces, Shankar maintains that the film will be typical of his style, which means lavish budgets, and expensive production values.

  By the way Jacky. I feel that Shankar uses excess graphics in his movies. To some extent it is ok. But it becomes an irritant these days.
  
  The snakes graphics in mudhalvane song was pathetic.

  "eminem paatu ketutu yethaavathu post pannunga. that'd be more entertaining."
  Why go all the way to Eminem, even oldies like
  Black Sabbath or Kiss or Led Zeppelin had more screams and swear words.
  Yet any discerning music listener can see thru the merits of these vis-a-vis a sham like "Sa Re Ga Me"

  ^^"Sa re ga me" hardly qualifies for a song worthy enough even for roadside shows ^^
  
  ARR doesn't need to care about roadside shows performed by koravan and korathis, for that we have IR who makes the same tune in humpty number of films.
  1. ennadi muniyamma becomes otha rubayun tharen
  2. kumbabishekam koviluku than kuppama edutha mavilaku than
  3. kuruvi kondanga koya pazaham
  
  Please understand when koravan korathis cant be singing "saregamey" boys at the MTV asia awards cant be singing some thing melodious, it needs the youth and energy.
  Strange sometimes you dont understand this simple thing.

  To continue.
  
  If you go and sing "unga appanukku be be" in the same Naradha Gana sabha, will everyone appreciate?
  
  Neither ARR nor the MTV-Asia people claimed that only carnatic music should be sung at the music festival.
  
  Tamil is the only regional language, whose songs are telecasted in MTV/V or any indian music channel.
  
  Why? ARR. As simple as that. He is time and again proving that Music has no language..
  
  Edho konjam poruthu porom appadingara fact does not mean that you can keep on ridiculing ARR and his music.
  
  No one asked you to listen to sa re ga ma song. Did we? Did ARR or Shankar come and beg to you, please listen to this song.
  
  If you dont like it thank you very much..Thats it. No need to come here and exhibit your ignorance.
  
  Ragam, thalam, pallavi mattum therinja periya musician aagida mudiyadhu. Music is not a science. It is an art.
  
  When there are millions of fans like us who like SA-RE-GA-MA, we would keep pressing ARR for such songs in the future. Atleast one such song in every movie...
  
  Stop this crap of deciding which song should be part of MTV-Asia award.....
