  Ninnai charanadaindhaen" - by Bombay Jayashree is not based on Hamsanandhi but 'Panthuvaraali'
  
  .....this is set poorvikalyani.

  Friends,
  I heard IR is in US now. Is this true? If it is, do you know if he has any public appearance scheduled anywhere?

  Guys
  IR is here in DC and I with a group of friends is scheduled to meet him on thursday.
  
  If you have anything that you want me to ask him, send me an email.
  
  Also I am compiling a list of things to ask him the meeting.

  Friend I am afraid this is also wrong
  Ninnai Charanadaindhaen does resembles more of Hamsanandhi or Sunadhavinodhini,this song sound similar to a song in Dalapathi called as 'Puthum puthu Poo' though not shown in the movie but was in the casette. Hamsanandhi has no resemblance of Panthuvaraali or Poorvikalyani,incidentaly Panthuvaraali and Poorvikalyani sound very much similar if I am right except for a variation in the Nishadham.
  
  In the movie Bharathy there is a nice no based on PoorviKalyani called 'Ethilum Ingu' sung by Madhu Balakrishnan.
  
  Best example of panthuvarali is from MSV's Eyezhu swarangalil ethanai padal' from the movie Apoorva Ragangal or recent ARRs 'Hai Rama' from Rangeela.
  There is also a nice song by IR from the movie Oruvar Vazhagum Alayam i forgot the song name though. There is also beautiful Jazz fusion on Pathuvarali by IR in his album 'How to Name it' where the Trumpet goes on solo and then joined by scntillating Bass and Drums
  Hope no more confusion on this

  Guys
  
  IR had a meeting with the Chettiar Association in Md on Sunday and from his talk, looks like he is frustrated with tamil industry for not giving him the due recognition. Also he was talking more about classical stuff etc etc.
  This is what I heard form my friend. I will write about everything, after I meet him on thursday.

  Hello Rajaveriyan
  
  If you meet Mr. Raja please tell him that he has a great and sincere following here in US.
  
  Questions I would like to ask
  1)Why dont IR atleast release Symphony in Europe and US instead of India.
  
  2)Why not have a album done in collobration with good jazz artist or people like Sting or Peter Gabriel.
  
  3)Also how about a nice concert in NY Carnigei :)
  
  
  thanks

  Hey Mr KK C'mon C'mon
  
  I have seen your postings in some threads and remember noticing your responses to the postings in the 'WE MER IR' discussion.
  
  you have mentioned that you can compile a list of questions/suggestions. Why don't you do that and send it to me before thursday morning EDT. AS far as what I am going to ask IR. ....have so many things...but not sure what his mood will be on that day....still deciding.

  hey UV,
  Are you from around DC? Would like to meet you and kick your butt (kidding..). But seriously, would like to meet you guys from DC.

  Rajaveriyan, sorry..the statement sounded like you are going to meet your friend, who attended the chettiyar Asso meeting. I wasnt trying to make fun of you. I would also love to meet him, but Iam not sure if could stand on my feet before him!.
  
  You better make sure you put down your question in a proper way, if you are meeting him.

  If anyone meets IR request him
  1. to release more Bharathiyar songs set in classical raagas.
  2. to do private albums with tamil carnatic&Western fusions say 72 Melakarthaas in various volumes.

  Please request Dr.Ir to create albums containing
  his BGMs...which is much awaited?, Though this is
  a repeat request, the answer for this question is
  much awaited from the Dr. .,

  friends and fellow rajaveriyans
  
  just back from watching bharathi......vaarthai vara maattenguthu, because of the music. what a BGM, and to watch the songs on screen...simply awesome. and contrary to what many people think, the hall was packed, and this for a weekday noon show. when IR sang ninnaich charanadainthen, everyone burst into applause. mey silirththuvittadhu. and when the movie was over, or at least when we thought it was, "nallathor veenai seithen" came on. everyone who was readying to go just stood, listened, and speechlessly walked out. am yet to recover from the impact of IR's music. rajave saranam!!!!
  
  pinkurippu: the movie is a commendable attempt, a breath of fresh air in our kunduchchatti film world. great performances by shinde and devayani.

• From: Rex (@ 205.139.184.49) on: Wed Sep 20 10:17:25 EDT 2000
  
  After all this brouhaha about IR's visit to DC, why is there not a confirmation on this fact by RAAJANGAHM, the official website of IR?
  
  At least a negation or a confirmation of the fact from Raajangahm would help everyone at this forum.
  
  Thanks!

  Folks,
  
  While on the BGM CD topic, I went and saw Hey! Ram.....again, at the Toronto International Film Festival, on Saturday the 16th.
  
  I have watched the movie in a 'Tamil' theatre twice before, but only now was I able to fully enjoy the BGM. The THX sound in the theatre was amazing. There were scenes when I just closed my eyes, and listened to the music.
  
  I was hoping to meet Kamal there and ask him about the BGM of Hey! Ram. The silly fellow did not show up at the screening, even though he was in Toronto for the festival.
  
  But, I managed to get his e-mail from the festival organizers. It goes:
  
  superape@eth.net
  
  Can someone e-mail him and ask him what he is waiting for? Tell him we want to listen to the music ASAP! :-)
  
  I e-mailed him. But, no reply yet.
  
  ....later

  koothan,
  
  The film was a flop, if it would have been a hit, then Kamal might be thinking of releasing it. My thinking is that he should have released the album with the film release itself. It's too late now and I don't think it will ever come out as an album. So pick up DVD at your local store and copy it yourself and enjoy it. That's the only solution.
