Ther is no second thought in that.<BR/><BR/>The chance of listening his voice in melody/haunting song is very rare in tamil, which actually made me use that word. In fact I'm writing an article about him which you may read soon here. :) <BR/><BR/>I listen to very few hindi songs, so I cannot comment on it. But i know that he is doing very good in hindi. Even now, i frequent his Kal ho na ho, Lakshya song :)Vinithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01473007967304538381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5162475752033551453.post-16869024057620121262008-11-12T07:17:00.000+05:302008-11-12T07:17:00.000+05:30Am listening to the album now after reading your g...Am listening to the album now after reading your glowing review. I hope it stands up to the quality I saw from GVP many movies ago. Kuselan was not too bad, i guess, I did like Chaaral. But all the other songs fell short of expectation for me. Hope this is a good comeback :)<BR/><BR/>Btw, I must say something. I don't think it's fair to say Shankar Mahadevan is becoming more versatile NOW. He's always been versatile: you should check out his Hindi songs, especially when he's the music director. It's a pity that in Tamil we only hear him in Yuvan's hero opening songs.kannanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15421022794819566062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5162475752033551453.post-36237244854285528882008-10-25T10:07:00.000+05:302008-10-25T10:07:00.000+05:30Hi RKS,IMHO,this time the influence of ARR is very...Hi RKS,<BR/><BR/>IMHO,<BR/>this time the influence of ARR is very very minimal. I could find a fresh GVP this time which is far far better that his earlier albums. He is unique in AT.

Anandha Thandavam by GVP, though the album has come out well, could easily find ARR's work revisiting thru in this too, Kana kangiren(traces of kannodu kanbathellam) and megam pola (traces of padayappa). No doubt he has talent but to identify his own style, Not to have the influence of anyone.K.RAGHAVANhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13264796625550730969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5162475752033551453.post-59298266596374733082008-10-23T18:13:00.000+05:302008-10-23T18:13:00.000+05:30Thats all right Prakash.

I had very very huge expectations on Kuselan, may be thats the reason why I dint like the songs! I thought I'd see Veyil GVP or a Kridom GVP in Kuselan. But serioulsy, the Kuselan songs were boring. Those two melodies in Kuselan could stand in my playlist only for a week. I never went back to that folder in my PC.<BR/><BR/>Three months down the line, I'd still be listening to couple of songs and the Theme music of Anandha Thandavam. This is the realy quality of an MD. This is what i expected in Kuselan. :) <BR/>Of course, the movie itself failed to live upto the expectations! :(Vinithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01473007967304538381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5162475752033551453.post-61418444522340458352008-10-23T17:24:00.000+05:302008-10-23T17:24:00.000+05:30Vinith-With due respect to your opinion, I found K...Vinith-With due respect to your opinion, I found Kuchelan very good. I first found it bad but after many listenings, I loved Chaaral (Shreya was wow), Sollama (unique tune) & Om Zaarare (superb string arrangements). I was quite sure of Aanandha Thaandavam being good, as I feel if you are a talented music dir (like GVP is), then you would give good music for a movie with a strong script, unlike the kuthu songs in stupid movies which is very common today. Albums like AT will revive the melody era :)Prakash Srinivasanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17836779273783085338noreply@blogger.com
