Remember the Music Director trio Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy, the music directors of Kamal Hassan's Alavandhaan. They seem to be missing in the Tamil scene for the last 2 years and they are doing really good in the Hindi field. They have given solid musical hits in Hindi such as; Mission Kashmir, Dil Chahtha Hai. I think they can be brought to the Tamil films again. I feel they are definitely better than Deva and a few others. I think they are the best as far as Hindi Film Music goes after A R Rahman.
I would like healthy comments who listen to Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy and have a fair knowledge of Hindi Film Industry.

Eshnan
Congrats on your winning the National award.
It is an achievement indeed. I came back in this site after a long time. In the meantime Lakhsya relesed . Atlhough the scope was limited for songs you three did a great job.
KHGN I personally loved 3 songs. AAO NA is 10/100. My wife loves it a lot. But other songs after listening for some time does not better the feling. The song 'Main Hoon' is too noisy to us. 'Pyar Me' is a very innovative idea. Thanks for that. No No song is 100% better rap kind of song than some latest ones which we got from other renowned music director.
Congrats once again.Hope you did not forget my request and millions of music lovers requests to bring "Kumar Sanu" under your superb music umbrella.
Waiting for that day
Somuda

Hi Ehassan,
This is Jyothi from London once again.
I hope all is well with u and the guys.
So what is next...what do we have to look forward to in the future from SEL....any exciting projects or collaborations.
Congratulations with the National Award...well deserved.
What an awesome talent you are.....
Inshallah u will continue to greater heights.
Off the top of ur head, what Rahman composition lingers in ur mind.
For me it would have to be Roja Janeman from the film Roja. Great Composition and excellently sung by SP Balu. Any comments.
As for SEL compositions the one I can't get out of my head is Tanhaee from Dil Chahta Hai. one of Sonu's best renditions.
Look forward to hearing from u.
Give my salaam to Shankar and Loy

Agreed, the title track was melodious... But a National Award for Kal Ho Na Ho????
Unbelieveable!!!! In my opinion, Dil Chahta Hai was a better attempt by the trio! May be it catered to the current trend of Punju moojick!
There were much better soundtracks last year that deserved recognition!

Ehsaan
That was a well deserved one.Congrats!
Your new one with Vivek Oberoi and Aishwarya Rai -the song seems to be happy marriage between Zanjeer Pran's song(Yaari ...) and Rehmans "Strwberry"from Minsara Kanavu.The picturisation does not help your cause and largely follows the latter song's opera style.
a suggestion ...try coming out of Shaan,Sonu,Udit..... Karthik,Tippu and shrinivas are capable.Try out SPB,P Jeyachandran.From your earlier posts i understand that your exposure to regional music starts and ends with Rehman.If you dont experiment at this point of your carrer you may not get another chance.
All said and done your music certainly is not of the "mind-blowing"variety and i could make out the sincerity with which you approach your songs.Keep it up.Its a rarity in hindi since 80s.With lack of competition and carefully nurtured mediocrity all-around it might take just 2 movies to take you to heights of complacency.Beware and keep going.
Shankar's singing is another big plus you have got and all the best to him.

Thanks Eshaan for remembering my request.
Also I forgot to ask you what are the upcoming movies where you are working. I am sad that nowadays there are hardly any BIG projects. But I am sure you will feature in some Big ones.

Hey Ehsaan,

Ehsaan,
Congratulations.
Is your team ready to do a pakka village based story..?? If so, will you be able to produce an entirely new aroma of rural music..?? fresh from the ones we have been hearing.
- From: zz (@ 203.145.174.4)
on: Tue Aug 17 08:39:48 EDT 2004
sudalai:
The question is what you call a rural music....If SEL make rustic and rural music prevalant in North then will you admit that they have made it....If you admit...in what capacity do you admit...are U an authority to say what is rural and what is urban...
Don't mistake me...I am saying this because...U invoked a debate that ARR has not yet composed purely based folk songs...Now I mean that is quite subjective and what you call a rural music...ARR's Lagaan/ Zubeida , TLOBS and Earth has folk songs....agmark folk song according to many...but will you admit...adhudhaan question....
what I am trying to say is...certain things are quite subjective and when we ask such question as whether he/she can compose some x/y/z music...we have already made our mind that they can't.
Ehsaan: sorry for having gone in long line.
Degression ends here.

zz..
I had never doubted SEL's capabilities..
I just wanted to know if they were ready to do any kind of movies in tamil.
I just expected if they can come out with a fresh rural music.. different from any at present..
No harm meant...
>>are U an authority to say what is rural and what is urban
Did I sound so...??? I'm one among the mass...

>>>Did I sound so...??? I'm one among the mass...
No..you did not . But your query on this very subject poses as if they compose a rural song then from the next day onwards, they will become an unquestionable autority in rural music and who says so...its sudalai....
My point is being a MD one has to know how to compose in all Indian music style....if they did not they they are not fit to be a MD....that is why...many who follow Indian music have rated ARR, SEL, Vishal and few more only as genuine MDs...other contenporaries are not even worth considering...
(okay...IR is not refered here and I feel it is unnecesary to bring him under contemporary MDs --- this is to clarify you Mr. Sudalai.)

>>> being a MD one
