I heard on a brief Sun News last night that Rajini has announced his next movie after 3 years, to be titled "Baba". I missed out the details though.
Does anyone know who the MD is?

not even one song(from baasha,annamalai,muthu,padaippa) can match "kadhalin deepam onru"...
FOR THE TYPICAL HCIRF!
not even one song (from Avvai Shanmughi, Aalavandhan, Thenali) can match the standards of "nilaa kaayuthu neram nalla neram"...
FOR THE AVERAGE TAMILIAN!

Deva is the best bet for Baba.

Deva is really the MAN for Rajini movies.his understanding is something to be appreciated.

Well, I don't care who the MD is , they must have SPB singing @least 2 songs in a film, hariharan, Udit & Shankers voices do not suit super*.
I have feeling, it could be ARR or Deva!

<<<<>>
whynot, hadn't kamal meddled with every aspect of movie making, there wudn't have been so many hits (including the latest Pammal K Sambandham)...why bring in kamal in here into this thread? Just curious to know :-)
- From: WhyNot (@ 203.24.100.132) on: Thu Feb 21 07:16:23 EST 2002
>>the only money minded fool is kamal<<
by Raghu
and
>>IMO Kamal is a better person than Rajini<<<
by tigger.
so i added one more comment about him.
... and I did not say meddling with every aspect of movie making is a bad thing. I jus tried to make tigger understand while terrible lyrics in a kamal movie may be a result of Kamal himself, the same can't be said for a rajini movie.
plus mentioning Kamal in this thread has its advantages too. :-)

gowri,
if you listen carefully, even for the AVERAGE TAMILIAN the prelude of the song is too good.
- From: Gowri (@ 61.6.38.132) on: Thu Feb 21 21:31:20 EST 2002
Which song basho&isso?
Kathalin theebam is not bad. But to say that it is better than the songs in the movies (from baasha, annamalai, muthu, padaippa) is stretching it too far.

Gowri you don't have to be apologetic in saying Kaathalin dheepan onRu as "is not bad". It is infact bad and one of the worst songs of TFM.

Thanks for the compliments. If all us can only dress in black, it would make the world a boring place, don't you think?
Hope you get my underlying message.

I don't want to be accused of "stretching" :)

My answers:
IR - If want immediate + quality songs (Yes)
- Difference of opinion/misunderstanding, who cares about BGM in Rajini movie (No)
ARR - If Rajini can wait for one year or more (Yes)
- Expensive, poor cassettes sales recently, not many great hits recently (No)
Deva - Cheaper, timely delivery, previous great hit films. Director Suresh Krishna worked with Deva only (do not remember any IR/ARR films for Rajini)
Vidya Saagar - Great (If no IR/ARR, I wish VS scores)
Bharadwaj - Possibly.
My best bet is Deva given the 'NOs' above.

Were the not-so great hits by ARR produce poorer cassette sales than IR's umpteen Great Hits in recent times? Jus wondering.

adhanaaa..... unmaiaaa sonnnaaaa porukadhaeeey, udanaey vayatherichal, IR cassette sales achaaanu kaetpingaaa...... compared to ARR's other cassette sales, other than KM, i don't think others were a hit *COMMERCIALY* (were they hit musically, GOD knows).....
Why Not, i go only by whatever is said in the NEWS sections in NET - i remember reading that KAASI producer was very happy the audio cassete sales were very good..... so its upto u to believe it or not....
- From: Kupps (@ 156.153.255.134) on: Fri Feb 22 07:27:07 EST 2002
WhyNot,
I guess you missed(dont know wantedly or unwantedly:-)) a point in STS' post. STS was comparing ARR with ARR-till-recent-past. Yes! IR's cassette sales were not even hits, fine now, could you now say that ARR's recent cassette sales were as good as his recent-past's? This applies to you too ROTFL
But, coming out of this whether the songs are great or not so great Rajini songs will be listened just because of Rajini songs. Songs being great would be an addition to that only.

STS was comparing a bunch of MDs and dismissed ARR cos of poor record sales in the recent past. You see, if u had to choose from A,B,C and D and was told tat while B had produced the best results in recent times, B's results were far better a year ago, wud u not go for B still? I mean wat do u care how B's performance has fluctuated if B's performance is still a head better than A, C or D? I was not ignoring STS's point. I was bringing it back to context.
>>>i remember reading that KAASI producer was very happy the audio cassete sales were very good<<<
Being happy, sad, disappointed are subjective terms. I've thought I was going to stuff up an exam and was delirious when I learnt I had got 51, while I've expected a high distinction for another paper and was disappointed that I only got 79 and missed it by 1 mark. So does that make 51 better than 79? Subjective.

Sabesan
Unmai has several degrees. IR fans sollura unmai, HCIRF sollura unmai, ARR fans sollura unmai.... And they all need not necessarily be the same.

According to Yahoo Movies, it is Deva.

if its Deva, iam sure he will blend with *today's* RAJINI songs..... ARR's or IR's song will have their brand on the songs more than RAJINI songs, but Deva, iam sure the end product will have a good RAJINIku ethaaaa songs (that does'nt mean that Deva is better than ARR or IR)....
- From: ROBIN (@ 212.138.47.13) on: Fri Feb 22 13:10:58 EST 2002
I am sure this time, Rajini, will give a chance to either Yuvan and Karthik. He had a bitter experience with ARR and more over his market is not as good as three years before. He is in downgrade. I wish Kaarthik should get the offer from the super star
- From: paamaran (@ 207.188.29.248) on: Fri Feb 22 14:35:37 EST 2002
Director Suresh Krishna worked with Deva only (do not remember any IR/ARR films for Rajini)
Was'nt Veera directed by Suresh Krishna?
Sureshkrishna + Rajini + IR combination has Veera.
Sureshkrishna + IR combination list goes "Satya,KadamaiKaniyamKattupaadu,RajaKayyaVacha,AnbuChinnam(Venkatesh and Revathi - Telugu dubbed movie.. i don't know the Original)..."
- From: WhyNot (@ 202.165.70.2) on: Fri Feb 22 23:49:13 EST 2002
I hope it is not Deva. What a disappointment.
It's like an anti-climax.

Kupps,
Thanks. I was comparing recent ARR with previous ARR.
Everything depends on ROI.
Paamaran,
I was talking about SK+IR combo for Rajini movies only. May be you are right about Veera.
- From: lion (@ 161.139.102.70) on: Sun Feb 24 10:01:55 EST 2002
how about arr and ir combo

Rajini's valli( own production) was with very nice and good music even lata rajinikanth sang.BGM was very nice.especially this song" enggengo enggengo" sang by swarnalatha really soothing music.Why NOT rajini this time his own production film give to IR.

Looong time since i came here..
Gosh the debate's still goin on!!
WhyNot, Thanx for ur comment.
any way here I go...
RajniKanth is making a movie
Baba is the name
Who'll be the MD
to get his 15 minutes of fame (??!!)
Is ARR the man for the occasion?
He always comes up w/ something special!
Whilst there is heavy tension..
His songs are hot as hell.
Or is it goin to IR
The man who ruled TFM
we must thank our star
to make maestro's like them.
Or is it going to be Deva
The man who's stolen many a tune
from English to Hindi to Kannada
and we too listen and croon...
Or is it Mr. Harris
Who's created quite a sensation
from Bombay to Paris
wait, is this exaggeration?
This man creates modern stuff
and sometimes copies too
when the goin gets tough
he goes to the loo ;-)
Rajni films have style
And a song or two to Dance
They sometimes make u smile
mostly Ppl get in a trance
"Thathuvam"s are the watch words
In most of the Rajni songs
comparing us w/ free birds
and they go hammer and tongs
I'll be goin on my way
and as i doff my hat
I have only 1 thing to say..
WhyNot, Howzaaaaat??!!
