  GangA: Will I get iraivan's aruL in the aforementioned marudanayagam project? at least 70 virgins?
  
  
• From: GangA (@ 192.127.94.7) on: Tue Apr 6 13:10:22 EDT 2004
  
  kamal wants this to be a secret project. He does not like media hype after 'aaLavandhaan'. All the money collected will be secretly spent. I assure you.
  Mister, 70 virgins is too much expectation. After kamal's use there would be none nnu theriyaadhaa?

  If anyone starts asking questions about 'marudhanaayagam' IMAX project, I will start posting lengthy posts about IMAX movie making and reel out a list of all the IMAXes ever made. Beware... But please...please ..contribute.

  Guys, the name GangA seems to be a old name. So I am changing my name to triple X. My friend kOlam will try to fill in for my loop holes (and my other holes too)

  About kamal's dilemma:
  
  http://www.geocities.com/marudhanaayagam_in_IMAX/difficulties.html
  
  ".......The exceptional talented actor's actions have gone unnoticed. The RakKamal pictures movie is not released and the reason should be the attitude of Hollywood fellows who could not watch anything other than that movies made in Hollywood 2000.
  I hope folks can now understand who is kamalhassan and why he is special. There are many in the world that could act in mind but most of them would be just ham specialists. Ask them to act like a hollywood style village folk they could not as what they believe as acting is that just kissing and that’s it.
  
  Kamal can kiss and act for a total hollywood movie and also for a masalaa tamil movie, which means all natural acting, can be represented on screen by his body.
  
  Do you now feel the difference?

  For the symphony project I am going to have dinner with IR except he will have his in New Jersey and I will have mine in my dining table. That is my contribution. For the IMAX project I am going to create 10 websites with all sorts of data for the collection of money and names of people doanted living or dead, real or imaginary. That is my contribution.

  XXX: Since Kamal's movies are famous for the 'oNNukku pOgira' scene, can we have a fund raiser as 'ellaarum sErndhu Kamal Oda oNNukku adikklaam' for a nominal fee of $50. We can book some public park for this fund-raiser.

  that was hillarious and now u people may start a new thread to get contribution for kamal's IMAX project.U people were very helpful in providing us with humour in this otherwise serious thread. thx neway.
  
  Though i had second opinions abt the way SSSSSSS..A [man i too dont remember how many 's' and am too lazy to go to old responses to find that out :-)] were asking for contributions,which i hav mentioned already, i hav never distrubed them in the way u people r doing. let them do as they please and for me its important that i want to listen to IR's symphony thats all. the last thing i wud say to u all is if u believe in IR contribute otherwise keep quiet... plsss.

  What I also heard was that Warner Bros have approached Kamal for a project titled "The Virgin Hunter" - to be made in Tamil and Hindi - a kind of adaptation from the early 90s classic "The Ghost and the Darkness" featuring Val Kilmer and Michael Douglas in pursuit of two lions that go on a rampage killing laborers by dozens in a South African railroad construction site - in this version Kamal plays a lioness hunter with a passion for actually making love to the animal! and has a knack of taming them this way - the guys at Warner Bros found Kamal's legendary exploits with 'virgin (and also the not-virgin!) hunting' in real life so convincing, they have signed him for this role in reel life, a rather ambitious project - just like Russel Crowe fighting the tigers in Gladiator, Kamal will be seen making love to the lioness after taming it!
  
  "It was a challenge really - but with his natural instincts for such scenes so carefully honed over several decades of expertise and experience, Mr.Hassan could do it effortlessly, we were left wondering if any of us could make love even to our wives so passionately and perfectly in real life! " - so said a spokesman for the director Peter Jackson
  
  for the first time, the Indian music maestro legend Ilaiyaraaja is scoring the music and he has come up with an eerie, spine-chilling and yet erotic score for the love-making scenes!

  Why? Because you think after the symphony is out, you will not have fun as you will be running around to save your second mortgage on home? Probably, yes.

  Has Stephen Schwartz delivered lyrics yet? Is that the delay of the symphony? Is the Hindi translation not coming from Gulzar? Or, is it that IR is waitin for elections to get over? I don't think this delay has got to do with funds.
  
  ( for those funsters in this forum --Please, ellorum please continue this discussion, thamizhiliyo angilathiliyo or yanything..., i find it very lively discusuns)

  In one e-mail sent in April 2003, she had painstakingly typed instructions that could have been explained in seconds with facial expressions and body language: "Please change the pleading-looking gesture on 'I didn't do it' to one that has the arms spread apart — as in 'where?' — with the palms of the hands facing upwards and a little outwards. Elbows should be closer to the ribs. Head nod on 'maybe' should be more of a tilt sideways, with a slight shrug of the shoulder. Please add more motion to the fingers as well as some finer motion on the pelvis. The arms should reach their stopping point at the end much slower — with an ease-in — so it won't look like they're stopping very hard."
  
  Missives like that had become all too familiar to Kuhns, vice president of operations for 44-employee TierSolution. The company, which designs and installs customized computer systems, began sending work overseas in 1999 to avoid rising costs in Silicon Valley. It got headaches in Bangalore, India, instead.
  
  "Architects who make decisions during California business hours and dictate them across 11,000 miles of ocean to India, which is 12.5 hours ahead, and then expect to wake up in the morning with perfect software, will be disillusioned," said Kuhns, who once woke up to find no software at all. A TierSolution contractor disappeared without a word — and without finishing the job.
  
  "There was nothing we could do, she said. "We realized how little control we had."
  
  So in 2000, TierSolution established a small four-worker outpost in Bangalore with salaried employees who would be more accountable than contractors. At first, Kuhns sent a couple of TierSolution employees from the U.S. to set up shop and supervise. Now the office runs on its own, communicating with its U.S. headquarters via phone and e-mail.
  
  The company, which is privately held and does not disclose its finances, paid the employees in Bangalore 90% less than programmers in Pleasant Hill would have demanded, but there were unexpected costs at every turn. With the electrical power and Internet connection in the India office routinely on the blink, Kuhns had to buy two backup generators. Cost: $2,000 apiece. Then the building's air conditioning system started working only intermittently. Employees opened the windows, which brought in thick layers of dust that clogged the computers. So Kuhns had to spend "several thousand" dollars to rewire the office to handle a new, power-hungry air conditioning system.
  
  "All that adds up," Kuhns said.
  
  Kuhns found that her Silicon Valley style of blunt communication left a wake of bruised egos and wounded feelings. She also found that requests had to be extremely detailed.
  
  "When you say you want something on Wednesday, you have to specify which week, which month, which year," she said. "Otherwise, it just doesn't get done."
  
  Oliver, too, had trouble bridging cultures. Though Australia is culturally similar to the U.S., there were kinks here and there. The accent was sometimes vexing during conference calls: "There were times when they'd say something, and we'd all go, 'What did he just say?' " Oliver recalled.
