Siva, very true !!!!
In this land of backward minds, there is this reporter who cannot understand a "My Fair Lady" kind of a number where music seamlessly mixes itself with the dialogues. The idiot could not recognize that something revolutionary was happening !!!
Tamils DO NOT deserve MSV.
The very aspect of choosing the portions for dialogue and the ones for a tune in itself is a work of pure class and only a genius could have pulled it off.
MSV unleashed music for the sake of deaf, conservative ears clogged with cobwebs of their self-degrading past and worse still...probably Johnson's baby buds.
Sivakumar, here is the icing......remember reading the review for Karnan. The very statement was to the effect of " Thes songs put the listenerst to sleep"
MSV fulfilled the mission of musical Gods that sent him down here and that is enough !!!! Tamils will wake when a white-skinned music professor yanks them out of their slumber and admonishes them for having been perception challenged ignoramuses. |

Dear Mr.Siva and Mr.Vatsan
Calling them idiots is an understatement bordering on decency that they don't deserve. I Choose to call them square idiots, as square is a perfect body that shows identical dimensions from any view point. [By every reckoning they are idiots]. Tamil magazines, deprived of knowledgeable editors and bereft of common sense were using these idiots for simply trumpeting the non-existent glories of lesser mortals;Later, any eulogy was not knowkedge- centered but fear-driven write-ups to appease the later arrivals, lest should earn their wrath. MSV was far above all these, making no noise of any kind.Idiots being what they are chose to write any non-sense about people of the calibre of MSV. What better can we expect from mentally retarded except verbal cacaphony? Now it should be amply clear that MSV was rightly immune to those stupidities.
Thanks for the opportunity. Warm regards Prof.K.Raman Madurai. _________________ Prof. K. Raman

Well This post rekindles some of the memory I had. As recently as 19th Sep when MSV was awarded Geetha Mudhra life time achievement award, Sridhar Navrags performed this song with Kovai Murali who did a briliant job. Before the song Sridhar said this is MSV's symphony.
MSV mentioned about the idea how they got from an English movie in which a man walks with waking stick and sings. In that song there were dialogs. So AVM Kumaran wanted such style and took MSV to the English movie along with MSV.
But when the actual composition took place MSV went beyond the original idea and infused the emotions in the dialog itself forget the melody. Just see how he used the phrase 'Uyarndhavan (for tone goes higher) and 'Thaazhndhavan' (the tone get lower and exactly opposite to the earlier) and 'Illaye Nammidam' (which goes parallel).
Just see how he used the word 'veedu endrum, manaivi endrum' showing a kind of 'alluppu'. See how he seemlessly blended the dialog with the melody for the word 'Thavarugal seidhavan evanume azhugiraan' in which the note goes away from the original melody to have the soberness feel.
The same 'vikatan' in their review about the movie 'Nizhal Nijamaagiradhu' gave a similar ill conceived review about the songs. But it turned out that the two songs became evergreen melody.
The same 'vikatan' last month approached us for 25 points about MSV.
'Vikatan' has to be told that if some other agency does a review now about how they reviewed a situation with the reality starring against their review it will make them feel that they have no qualification or expertise to write such review.

Friends, let us tell ourselves that film reviewers those days were "gnana sooniyangal", and leave it at that. Class always tells. That is why MSV's songs haunt us even after 40-50 years.
While on "Andha Naal Gnabagam", I remember reading in an interview with Vaalee that the words "Puththagam paiyilae, buddhiyo paatilae" were a direct reference to MSV's own childhood. As all of us know, MSV used to bunk school and sit outside Neelakanta Bhagavathar's house, listening to him teaching music to other youngsters. Vaalee, who was aware of MSV's struggles in the early days, inserted these words very aptly in the song. _________________ Srini |

Friends,
These magazine reviews have been and still are unnecessarily creating storms by their commentaries. One exception: they all unanimously hero-worship IR, glorify all irrelevant meetings, functions, statements made by him in golden letters. I still remember an issue of vikatan screaming about some comments on IR by ARR. I happened to be in my hometown, and was also witnessing some enthusiastic comments by some of the buyers. But, inside, there was just a passing remark by ARR-that too forcibly pulled out of his mouth-seemingly glorifying IR, and that line was the cover page caption!! That was the last day I ever saw or read an ananda vikatan issue. They (and others too) should avoid writing about MM. From our side, we must not allow such magazine people to be invited to any of the stage shows ourselves. The decent and careful reporting by the Hindu stands out and thanks to them. As rightly said, these reports add more pain...Let us forgive and forget!
