  Director Sittiklal directed the Malayalam movie "Friends". The article says he will direct the Tamil version of the same movie only if Ilaiya Raja scores the music. Hmmm. Thamizhanai Thamizharkal thavira anaivarum support seivadhu pola ullathu. (URL for this article is posted by Koothan above)

  I watched Thirunelveli and I enjoyed Maestro's music rather than the movie. Three songs are really good and One is excellent "Ola kudisiyalae". Background score lesson to learn for all the MDs from Maestro.

  "Aandan..Adimai" by Manivannan
  Will it be another Amathipadai where IR and
  KR joint together to produce one of the best
  BGM ever in Tamil Music.
  The catchy tune by KR when IR was busy composing for RPO in London was talk of the city in Chennai and throughout the tamil cine world
  Will be also a another comeback by Satiaraj where
  he showed to all audience that he is the best vilian in Tamil Industry in Amathipadai.
  
  I think you all know the song "Solle Vendu Venllinelave" ..it combination of Manivanvan ,
  IR and Satiaraj.
  This movie will be another Hey Ram in quality

  Hi vijanth,
  I don't know which tune you are talking about in amaidi padai. But as always the bacground score was good. Especially when the vote counting happens.. and satyaraj becomes confident. Actually a comedy scene.. but very seriously executed.

  Hi All,
  
  (This was a response to an observation made by someone who thought that the movie American Beauty had very Rahmanish and Ilayarajaish touch. I thought it might be interesting & therefore i posted it here).
  
  The music for American Beauty is good. Its by Thomas Newman(son of the great Alfred Newman). He's a well established and in-demand composer in Hollywood for years. He has other remarkable works which are truly beautiful.
  
  T Newman only came to the cinefield abt 15 yrs after Ilayaraaja entered. Thru' my listening experience,his music has never sounded like that of Ilayaraaja's at all. And thru my experience of listening to the genius Hollywood composer(Jerry Goldsmith) or any other older composers' music, Ilayaraaja's music has never ever sounded like any of them.
  
  Ilayaraaja is a class of his own & he has a compositional flavor of his own. He has a trademark just like Goldsmith has his own trademark. Not many composers have this trademark. Mostly because very often they end up sounding like their predecessors' music(sometimes in musical notes but very often in the compositional style).
  
  The great John Williams' famous Star Wars & Superman music itself is heavily inspired(pun intended) by Erich Korngold's Kings Row(old film) & Holst's classical The Planets. Even J Williams admitted that(partially due to the directors's request).
  
  In fact,if u happen to watch SW:The Phantom Menace,u would so shockingly find Ilayaraaja's choral music(which is his trademark & been using in tamil films for years) at the end of the movie during the victory celebrations!
  
  It is just too amazing about Ilayaraaja. Most ppl(in Hollywood) would say that Jerry Goldsmith is the most prolific & the most versatile & the best composer around. I already discovered that in Ilayaraaja long time ago(listening to his BGM's in the 70's indian movies etc).
  
  Some geniuses are made but rarely a genius is born. And when they are born.....their names would be Ilayaraaja and Jerry Goldsmith.

  Well told ambleen ,
  Even Illayaraja had mentioned in his Nothing
  but Wind instrumental album that." I could teach
  people to learn instruments but not to teach how to compose a music. It should be in your blood."
  Composer have their very own style of presentation when comes to music
  
  kitty
  The tune I mentioned about is the guitar perlude
  just as the tune "Solle Vidu Velli Nelave" .
  It is KR's composition.

  Maestro has scored for a TV serial earlier too, I think the name was peN (directed by Mrs MR & produced by MR)...Hence this is not something very new!

  KIRU I thought it was long time since audio has been released... anyway i'll give a special listening before I write, this album is the one which gave me 100% satisfaction recent times.
