R-A-H-M-A-N-I-S-M...forever..!!!
ARR... Allah Rakha Rehman... the name says it all... :) :) but before i begin speaking anything abt this maestro...
Here are few things I gotta say…If u do not like ARR’s music… Seriously GO-GET-A-LIFE… J Obviously there’s gonna be nobody who doesn’t like his work.. but if there are any.. u know wat u gotta do.. :D :D
Now the thing that u gotta do is... please listen to Aaromale song from Ye Maaya Chesaave (Vinnayithaandi Varuvaaya)... that is the best song for me of ARR in the recent times... Ofcourse there are many more... but this one connects to my heart... It goes more wit me... If u remember the movie... this song is like.. the back ground music of major part of the movie.. as well.. this song is picturized as NC gets isolated.. and prepares his first movie script ever... yea.. tat is the like the best part... i love it.. the same way it is wit me... i wanna get lost/isolated wit the world, all I need is Rahman’s music in an Apple iTouch... and keep on writing stuff... :) :) will speak more about this movie later... but for now... keep that track in mind and keep reading this.. if u also observe that is the tune of my blog's profile... :) :) yes... i m so crazy abt it... this is the track i used to(and now also most of the time) listen every night before goin to bed... its got the soothing music... which makes me go madly crazy abt it... :) :) (folks.. this may be a normal track for u guys… but I jus love it… can listen back-to-back any number of times…)
Well... Speaking about ARR... he was dileep kumar by birth.. but then he s changed his name to AR Rahman... :) :)
Not until 5 years ago... i wasn’t that crazy for ARR's music... that is when... it was few years ago i started goin ga-ga for his music…
As far as I kno… he started his career as a pianist when his Father passed away... Started off with an all time evergreen album Roja(though officially his first album was Dharam Yodha.. not many kno this… even I dint knew it until my frnd told me abt it… u r gonna kno who tat frnd is… ;))Guess I don’t have to speak about how amazing the tracks of Roja are… But still… I jus love Yeh Haseen Vaadiya(Paruvam Vaanaga in telugu), Roja title track and the Theme Music… J And then it was no turn around for ARR… It was from his first movie, he consistently gave fabulous music to Mani Ratnam(My favo director..)And he has been Mani’s Music Director for all of his movies from then…J

ARR+Mani Ratnam is the best of the best combo’s ever…!!! Each n every album is a gem of Music.. Sakhi stands out the best album among all of them.. its jus an impossible task for me to choose but still… All the tracks of Sakhi are like.. WOW… u cant jus get enough of them.. Added to the songs.. is the picturization… photography… aww… superb… Sakhiya, Alale Chittalale, Alai pongeraa… all the songs are the best in this… Next one in the queue would be Yuva…!!! Dakka laga bukka( though many like jana gana mana telugu version..) I’ma sucker for the hindi version… the music seems like an inspirational one… and then Hey Khuda Hafiz.. Fanaa.. Kabhi Neem.. Oh my god.. If I m gonna start speaking abt each n every album.. U guys shud be reading this particular post, for like, FOREVER.. Darn.. At the same time I wish I could write all that I want.. ;) but that’s okay.. I l brief as possi as I can… ;)
Actually.. I do have this immense respect for musicians.. Its basically for their creativity...The more creative they are... the more u like them.. It kinda gives an amazing feeling when people love the music which u’ve created… wow.. and a new tune… everytime… now u can think how brilliant our maestro is… The instruments which ARR uses are amazing.. even a pen-cap is used as an instrument.. Hat’s off to his creative brain… And let me tell u my experience.. I once realized.. I was actually singing along(not aloud…) wit a song of ARR’s wit-out any pause… by the end of the song… al I could think of was… how beautifully they compose it from their heart… the happiness u r gonna experience is inexpressible… gives an awesome experience.. u can try that.. but u shud be al alone when u r doin tat.. ;)
He has a unique selection of singers… He gives a brilliant opportunity.. One oughta not to miss that… In the recent times the one he has given break to, are Mohit Chauhan(Masakalli).. Rashid Ali(Kabhi Kabhi Aditi, Kahin toh, Cry Cry, Call me dil an amazing track).. Reena Bharadwaj(genda phool).. Vijay Prakash(Ee Hridayam, Neutron-electron of Robot, PowerStar from K.Puli, Beera beera), Javed Ali(Jasn-E-Baharaa) and many more… The Super combo is ARR+Karthik.. ARR+Hari haran… man… so many amazing songs… the one from taal.. nahin saamne tu by hari haran is still an amazing track for me and tu hi re from the bombay stands out for me… and the Special Combo ever is that of Rahman and SP Balu… whaaaooowww… they both jus rock… the latest favo one is O Maramanishi from Robot… the way balu sung is fantastic.. his voice has a unique energy.. their evergreen hits are Roja jaaneman, Yeh Haseen Vaadiya, Prema Prema(Prema Desam), Andamaina Premaraani(Premikudu),Ye Devi Varamu(Amrutha), Teppalelli Poyaka (Bharateeyudu) and many more… Actually.. ARR+Mani combo has another special person.. their lyricist Gulzar.. J fantastic lyrics… yet u don’t understand all the words though..

ARR has given many concerts so far… Sadly I just have 2 of them.. L U jus have to look at them… the people at the concert go mad…. U gotta see people cheering at the entrance of ARR… But damn… I missed a golden opportunity of attending a concert in Hyderabad.. L I still regret about it… I m such a looser… how could I even loose the opportunity… crap.. but… the Sydney concert in 2007… it was amazing.. I have recently seen it again in my lappy… man… each n every track they performed was mind blowing… I couldn’t control the tears, tears of Joy all through the concert…!!! The next time ARR gives a concert nearby to the place I live.. I swear to God… I m not gonna miss it… Yeh mera vaada hain… :D :D Lol… but seriously.. I m gonna go…
Whenever I m low… It is ARR’s music which makes me come over that situation… it happened numerous times… infact countless times… His music makes me really really happy… and it was the same number of many times I felt that I m lucky to have his music.. how blessed I m and even wondered what if there was no ARR’s music… eeww… no… no scope for tat… J His music literally soothes me… All the soft/slow numbers by him.. I jus keep humming in my mind… the songs which top this list are dil gira dafatan, rehna tu(Dilli 6)… two amazing tracks… and many more songs… Yeh jo des hain tera is one such wonderful track which is worth mentioning… the background chorus humming is fab… wow… I jus love it …
Man, only I kno how much I like ARR’s voice… His music is worth it and added his voice to the tracks… its like double treat for fans… and he has sung many awesome ones…
Dil Se re is one beautiful song ever…. As I earlier said yeh jo des hain tera brilliant, brilliant composition… Another such heart touching song is Luka chuppi from RDB… the latest ones maaralante, inumulo hridayam, the intro humming in beera song.. newyork nagaram
(man this is super track…), the friendship anthem Musthafa Musthafa.., Urvasi Urvasi.., Rehna tu… The other unique thing u r gonna find in his tracks is he can change the tempo of the song… and he does that so brilliantly.. u jus simply love it..the best of it is seen in Genda Phool, Alai Pongera(Sakhi), Chitti Dance Show in Robot.. this is the ultimate one…

And recently… the song which is haunting me is… Luka Chuppi… The ultimate combo of lata and ARR… do I have to speak how wonderful it is… but… when ever I listen this song… it makes me so emotional.. specially the line.. “yahan sab kuch hain maa phir bhi.. lage bin tere mujhko akelaa……” and then comes the peak moment of the song… man.. this line touches my heart so much… I miss my mommy so much… L L and so does she .. darn.. tears even roll out now.. L
Anyways coming back to the article… There has been a lot of Criticism recently… all the jealousy asses out there… the crap-heads waiting for an opportunity to pounce on him… open their mouths during the theme song of Common Wealth Games… I still now don’t understand what’s wrong wit that track… okay.. though its not a best track.. its still good man.. I don’t see anything wrong in it… silly media f****** spread crappy news… I don’t understand that a single track makes all his brilliant work go in vain… damn…Okay there can be flaws.. but it doesn’t mean one can jus say wat ever they can… anyways… ARR hit back wit the music of Jhoota Hi Sahi.. I Personally liked all the tracks… J Cry Cry song was on the top of chartbusters for many weeks… J though hello hello and call me dil are my favo’s…!!!
All the awards so far he has won are amazng… Guess wat… I think he needs a big auditorium at his place to place ‘em all… So many they are…!!! It was jus kollywood in his initial stages… later only he’s the busiest music director in entire India. And the biggest of his accolades… The Moment which made our country proud was the moment he won Oscar for his work in Slumdog Millionaire… As a matter of fact.. he won two of them… J Seriously what an achievement… Getting a worldwide recognition is infact a major achievement.!!! Man he truly rocks… J
He’s definitely one of the best persons among my list of good people. Till today there hasn’t been a single complaint against him. He has never been in issues in the media. Handling success is an important thing too. Absolutely no remark on his personal life as well… He is definitely, one hundred percent my role model... absolutely... Koi Shak… A big salute to his simplicity... his soft nature.. caring attitude... J
Speaking of his best composition to the nation… VANDE MAATARAM is still the best one and all time hits for me... a best song from the best person to our NATION...a wonderful gift :) :)
I jus regard all his albums specially…. I have his entire collection of Telugu, Hindi and English Songs… the BGM’s(Back Ground Music) of many films.. which he is fab at.. I even have about 1500 pics of his.. J There has been a lot of speculation on the komaram puli… even when I heard them at first dint like at all… but then.. his magic spell worked out… loved maaralante at first go.. sung by him.. amma thalle was an experimental track… though naresh iyer’s pronounciation was a bit odd… ;) and I liked maham maye… the album was pretty good for me..though many dint like it… he tried tracks with variations.. Altogether the happiness I get when ever I listen to his tracks is mammoth... no words to describe it... and I m gonna definitely fall short of words if I start doing so…
This is the deadley mix... amazing track... OMG.... I was crazy when I heard it for the first time.. J

ARR’s gonna start a music school… J
And I m eagerly waiting for his upcoming flicks.. Rana Starring SuperStar of Indian Cinema Rajani and Rock Star of Imtiaz Ali and Ranbir Kapoor…J .... wow... gonna love both of ‘em...
Undoubtedly I consider him to be the best Music Director ever... though they are many more legends... like Ilayaraja... RD burman... etc etc... they may be unique in their ways. but my ARR is the best for me... :) :)
LOVE HIM a lot...!!!!
Last but not least…As I said I m gonna speak about my friend.. He is Akhil Reddy… Manodu naakante beebatsamaina fan… vaaditho compare chesthe nenu nothing…J Me following Rahmanism ante… Akhil has major part… so he deserves to be mentioned…J given a chance he’l speak even better than me about ARR…
