hi..
i wanted to post some messege about the movie...well i am not from south india and i am not a musician...i have listened to arr rehman a lot and some illayaraj..but today i take pains to spend some time and search the web for illayaraj...what a music thus man made for lajja ..i want bothered about hindhi music which is all crap...and it got better by the introduction of arr..agreed..he is good...but to the person who posted anything about bgms in lagaan ,taal..and so forth..u have NO IDEA OF WHAT A BGM IS!!!!
let me gimme u some tips ...just find a website which i think is "www.raaja.com" and listen to the ngms listed there..u'll find that u are not in this earth...it reminds me so much of bach..this guy is something..its s pity we north indians were not aware of this phenonmenon..because there is no one to show us what is music..ne is r.d burman .s.d burman...they were good but only in the composing of songs which were melodous ..but what is the musicians part of it ..nothing..it all depended on tunes and singers..thats it...
just take some time and listen to his compositions..all the music directors of today can kneel down before him and just surrender...the concept of interludes....wow does anybody heard that in our hindhi music ...just listen to him...and the fact that he composes without playing them once..he is a genius guys....rehman is good in the techno stuff..but illayaraja...is a genius..in the range obach and beethoven...comparing him with rehmaan is embaraassing rehman...he know it too...
well thanx a million for the movie lajja ...it made me realise there is a phenomenon in india which i didnt know till now..
thanx
