Endhiran: What is the big secret ?

When someone tell you not to look at something, you get tempted to go there and see what is there, actually right ? There are companies, using this as a marketing technique … yes, like apple inc, keeping everything secret until they release the product, and you wil see “secret pictures of apple’s new product” all around the web, and they get enough free advertisement.

Now, director Shnankar is trying this, with his new movie Endhiran / Robot, the new  Rajni Ash starer. Shankar has put 40 security guards for Ashwariya, so that no one gets to take a photo of the shoot. Everything is “secret”, and lets see, what happens, soon, you will see blog posts, email forwards with pictures taken, breaking the security, yea, they will invade your inbox, and most of us will feel great, because we got to watch a “secret” .. this feel good factor, the excitement, and all the stuff happening around this “secret”, in turn  will help the publicity of the movie,

Don’t agree with me ?  Wait, and watch …. :)

A.R Rehman, Music Director for Hindi Ghajini / Gajni

Wait for the next hit from A. R Rehman, his music for Aamir and Asin’s Ghajini/ Gajni, in Hindi. It will be released very soon. ( You will get updates right here, on Indianmusicblog.com, book bark this blog, or subscribe to the RSS feed )

The tamil version of the movie had beautiful tracks from Haris Jayaraj, a leading music director in South Indian cinema. And his music was one of the greatest attractions of the movie, and also contributed to its success.If Aamir wants to repeat that success in Hindi, or make it even better, A.R should come out with something great, really great.

I expect the songs to be on in.com, where you can listen to them online, without downloading it. I will post links to them as soon as the album is released, and will make it even easier for you by adding links to pages, for downloading the song. So, with Indian Muic Blog, its going to be lot more easier for you to keep track of the movie and especially its songs !!

Enjoy !!

Mallus, why not Indian Idol ?

There are hell lot of music talent shows going on in kerala. If you have watched them cloely and evaluated the talent, you will sure know that most of them are capable of competing in the national level. Take the top 3 of every talent show that we have in Kerala television, and compare the talent with that of the national level talen shows, like Indian Idol, Sa re ga ma pa, and voice of India etc, aren’t they skilled enough to compete there ?

Yes, of course they are, but yet, we can’t see ,many of them there. reasons, anyone ? ok, here is what I figured out with my lazy mind.

1. You won’t get anything unless you attempt.

Yes, nothing can be achieve unless you try. So, are we trying enough to reach there ? Not enough, I guess ? There was Rashmi Vijayan in Indian Idol, she tried and made their way to top 28, sher tried well enough, but something with voting, but she gave her 100%, I am sure.  ( yes, she was in Dubai, at that time, another factor, ).

We have Roshan and Mufeeda this time, but Mufeeda didn’t come for studio rounds, after she got selected, not sure why .. so, there ends another story . Roshan was really nervous on the show when I got to watch him in the last episode, though.

We have enough talent her and these guys have proved that we can reach there, but still, we loose out on something, we don’t take the extra effort to attend auditions and all, I believe..

There are other factors too, I will write about them soon, stay tuned…
