Isai Gani - Mastero Ilayaraja

I always keep wondering what whould have happend to Mani Ratnam's Geethanjali without back ground music (symphony) or the same even with Mounaragam or Abhinandhana without the background score of the vilions and the piano..Punnagai Mannan without "Enna Satha intha Neram" or "chinnathai" from Dalapathi....

Difficult to imagine right? May be this is the reason why Ilayaraja is very special to me.


Most sucessful movies of the 80's and 90's and all I can recollect is IR. Its is considered as the golden era of music. Movies like Agni Natchthram, Nayagan, Anjali, Sitara, Alapana, Apoorva Sagotharargal, Saagara Sangamam, Rudraveena, Moondram Pirai, Shiva, JVAS, etc show tht he is not just a mere composer.He has composed more than 4000 songs in a span of 30 years...
A legendry composer forever in Indian music...For me he is the best in Orchestration and Background score.
A True Genious... A Lengend Forever ...

(P.S Still not completed more to come ...)

BATMAN The good old caped crusader -yes we are talking about that crimefighter-that superhero-that protector of the innocent and weak.Batman Oh Batman with his Batmobile and Bat Cave. Hey have you ever wondered where his headquarters was? That super secret location hidden away from those badguys. Well somehow the “BAT got let out the cage” and someone has revealed where it is. See the Evidence above…………….

Beauty is in the eyes of the Beholder–Have you heard that one-sure you have and by doggit when you start to disbelieve it something comes along to reinforce it. How the hell-oh let me stop-No How the Hell! you gonna tell me this is a picture of a beautiful woman—Well at closer inspection she’s really not all that bad- but beautiful? well maybe………………

Either I don’t know what big is or this is the top-rated stupid game show answer. The thing about it is this game show contestant looks as though she still doesn’t understand why the answer given is wrong. The dumbfounded look on this woman’s face is a classic. I bet she still hasn’t gone back to work because I know she is the office joke around the watercooler. Now I know some of us choke under pressure but the pressure is not usually broadcasted on National TV. Dumb is all I can Say– Just Dumb………
