Hi Aravind , Thanks for the information.I totally agree with you bro. And I'm with you. If IR doesn't stop his foolish attitude I suppose all ARR fans are going to Boycott all IR movies. IR's time is gone man. No more ideas to sqeeze out from his brain. The new name for music world is RAHMAN and there is no doubt about it. Habib

Having been a hardcore Raja fan before 1992, and having followed all his interviews, I am certain he would make such jealous statements. This is not something new for him. IR has so often in the past made absolutely ridiculous speeches, obnoxiously irritating interviews hurting so many people in the process. In particular, I can never forget one particular interview of Raja, hosted by veteran TV reporter H.Ramakrishnan, in late 90s in Doordarshan, in which Raja was at his irritating best, literally tormenting the interviewer. There was such arrogance, I've never seen in any celebrity. That was when Iost my respect for Raja, totally! How shocked I was back then, seeing my icon (till then) behave in such an immature manner! A few years back, Kumudam too had a feature which compiled some of his speeches, showing how irritating his speeches become. Why do you think so many top directors and lyricists broke up with him? But, even I was waiting for more proof about the latest controversy, to write to the group. Here it is - an article in Kumudam showing exactly what he said. http://tinypic.com/r/65ubyf/3 <http://tinypic.com/r/65ubyf/3> He did make those statements, and I'm not surprised he did. At first, I didn't want to write on this thread, as Rahman himself said in his oscar feliciation speech about fans fighting. Didn't he say that why should the fans fight, when he is so friendly with other everyone else? But, IR himself is never party to such sentiments. IR is such a jealous individual, that he said he has never heard of a song titled Chinna Chinna Aasai at a time when Rahman was the toast of the nation! You should listen to the the song titled "Ulagam Ippo" written, composed and sung by IR from the new album Azhagar Malai. IR's jealousy comes out clearly in that. The song lyrics talks about how people leave the country for money and that those people, though they may be rich, are mean and poor in his view point! The lyrics further goes that world may change, people may go wherever, but I'll stay here and serve the country. Rahman's world fame has woken up the beast of "jealousy against rahman" which was sleeping within him, for sometime now! I'm not attacking him but merely retorting back, and clearing the misconception that Raja is a saint! IR may be a genius, he may be a great composer, but when it comes to modesty, level-headedness and humility, he is nowhere near Rahman sir! This is cheapness to the core! I'm sure many are going to bounce on me, but I don't care. I'm writing this from the bottom of my heart and I'm sure I'm not making a mistake!

The 'Isaignani', as he is popularly known, seldom involves himself in any activities other than composing music and making a rare appearance at functions. Of late, though, his speech appears to have been 'aimed' at having a go at his peer and junior A.R. Rehman, his one-time keyboard player. For the first time in more than three decades of his musical sojourn, Ilaiyaraaja has appeared in an entire song in his recent film 'Azhagarmalai'. The melodious title song in the film not only features him but also is sung by the Maestro himself. Even the lyrics were penned by himself and had lines such as "whosoever wishes to go away from this country may do as they please; I would remain here forever in the service of my people". These lines could be taken as against no particular individual; but his recent remarks at an event to launch a carnatic music-based album were unmistakable. Speaking at the launch, Ilaiyaraaja said that "Some persons claim that all the fame 'goes' to the Lord. This is wrong; why would be a God be in need of fame. Isn't He the one who showers on us fame and popularity and money? How can we 'return' to Him the fame given to us by Him? It won't be proper at all!" While all these queries raised by the Maestromight sound genuine, the reference to the man is unmistakable. When even a child knows that it's Rahman's popular habit to admit on stages that "all fame goes to the Lord", it's highly surprising as to what the Maestro expected the people to think of his reported remarks! http://www.chennaio nline.com/ film/news/ Aug09/89Isaignan i-takes-a- dig-at-A- R-Rahman. aspx -- ------------ --------- --------- ----- http://ramblingsoul .com http://2ic.in ________________________________ See the Web's breaking stories, chosen by people like you.
