mmm...this is the most interesting aspect for a movie buff like me...deciphering information about the movie with just a sneak-peak at the movie album and the photos, teasers and the track lyrics...
i am back at that for Endhiran - Audio released today - and I had my share at The Odyssey - Adyar, where a sales personnel greeted me with a Thalaivar Autographed Endhiran poster...! would I disapprove?!!
Now the mega movie..what would it look like?
* One of the stock posters where Super Star has a metallic finish look-alike overcoat on...gives the impression of a machine man - ala - The Terminator
* looking at the first track lyrics and the images associated with it, i see traces of the Al Pacino starrer - S1m0ne - where Al Pacino creates a new avatar of his own!!
* the eternal story rounds that this movie is an adaptation of En Iniya Iyandhira - by the legendary (late) Sujatha Sir...which I was also believing until seeing the credit for Story going to Shankar in the audio CD..!!!
Onto the tracks,
a) Pudhiya Manitha - the snaps looks like this mostly a background song like the *vetri nichayam* song from Annamalai!! The bearded looks of Thalaivar is making him look erudite..nice persona selection!
b) Kadhal Anukkal - wow! I dont know where Mr. Shankar was able to find such a large oasis and a desert!! Looks to be a song for the Scientist Dr. Vaseegaran. Stunning and Glossy visuals I should say!
c) Irumbile Oru Idhayam - Wow! Familiar yet enterprising Shankar Trade like *Azhagana Ratchasiye*, *Randakka Randakka*, but the only difference is, this is the uber cool version of the same and Thalaivar looks stunning and atleast 10-15 years younger....Shankar should have directed Thalaivar atleast 10 years back and would have made him look like a college goer..:)
d) Arima Arima - I suppose is the signature song where the sequence of the stock audio cover comes up. As glossy and inline with the budget of the movie I should say!!
e) Kilimanjaro - Shot in the latest wonder of the world featuring on the agreed wonders of the world...(Aishwarya!) is the Uppu Karuvaadu version as far as I see...:D
whatever the movie says and does, i believe this is a landmark movie in Indian cinema ala THE AVATAR of the Hollywood. Pathbreaking is my impression!!
I have consciously avoided my Audio review of the album in this as I wanted to dedicate this post only to the maker and the product....
Audio review of THE MASTER's composition is coming soon...:D
