The Hindi Boys and Rahman!

Banking on the success of Rahman’s Oscars and Genilia’s newfound stardom in Bollywood, the Shankar directed Boys is being dubbed in Hindi. Producer A M Ratnam, however, believes that Boys will create a ripple in Hindi too and that the chartbuster music will ensure the movie’s success.

Genilia’s success with Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Naa has also served as a drive for Boys dubbing, in which she played the college-going Harini and was wooed by Munna, played by Siddharth.

What does Prabhu Deva have for Rajini?

It is a well known fact that Raju Sundaram has choreographed the Machu Pichu song which is salsa based and Lawrence, the robotic style song for Endhiran. Now it is the turn of Prabhu Deva who is working at Ramoji Film City in Hyderabad. The USP of this song is that Rajinikanth and his double will be shaking legs for the choreographer’s moves.

Prabhu Deva known for his dancing style is the right choice to choreograph our very own style icon,
Prabhu Deva
Rajinikanth. It will definitely be a treat to watch two superstars dancing on screen.

Madhushree croons for Enthiran

Enthiran is reportedly progressing at a very rapid pace. Song recordings are completed, and the crew is working overtime to complete the movie on schedule. The latest news? Popular singer Madhushree has crooned a song for the movie. This famous singer, who is a hot favourite with music maestro A.R. Rahman, was recently at A.M. Studios in Chennai for recording a song for the movie.
Check out: Madhushree with Rajinikanth
The singer was at her cheerful best at the studio, posing for photos with the Superstar and director Shankar. Superstar Rajinikanth is also reported to have had a casual chat with the singer. The ace actor was hep and happening with a nice wig and a cool, clean-shaved look.
It was Madhushree who sang the chartbuster 'Vaaji Vaaji' in Rajinikanth's blockbuster Sivaji. Hailing from Bengal, Madhushree learned Tamil to get a better grasp on its diction.

A. R. Rahman's sound engineer dead


H. Sridhar, a popular Sound Engineer who has been involved in over a thousand songs passed away this morning at around 8 am due to a massive heart attack. The Sound Engineer had been part of A. R. Rahman's team right from the onset. He was 50.
Having been closely associated with director's Mani Ratnam, K. Balachander, Bharathiraaja, Shankar, Kamal Haasan, P. C. Sreeram, Priyadarshan and Ramgopal Varma, H. Sridhar was a towering icon when it came to mixing music.
H. Sridhar was the recipient of the prestigious President's Gold Medal (National Award for best Audiography) four times for the films 'Mahanadhi', 'Dil Se', 'Lagaan' and 'Kannathil Muthamilttal'.
Sridhar was so talented and was sought after by the likes of George Harrision (a member of the famous Beatles), Pandit Ravi Shankar, Zakir Hussain and John McLaughlin to mix music for their albums.
This true talent will surely be missed by the music fraternity.
