There were speculations that the next hardware upgrade to Nintendo’s Wii will be sometime in 2008. Though unbelievable, I wanted to believe that so I could wait longer to buy a Wii. But unfortunately its not happening atleast until 2010.
Here’s a list of what’s happening in the World of Wii during 2008.
So if you haven’t bought your first Wii yet, its not too late. Rush to the nearest gamestop.
Though the ad was clearly hyped and totally cliched, I still liked it for the lyrics and animation. Especially the tamil version of this named as, திறமைப் போர் was terrific. Any idea which Ad agency made this one? Some commented on the youtube page that it was made by Piyush Pandey of Ogilvy and Mather.
Couldn’t find the Tamil version of the ad on Youtube but a pretty timely ad for the cricket-hungry countrymen.
Aararai Kodi Paerkalil Oruvan
Adiyen Thamizhan Naan Ungal Nanban
Aana Neengal Aavanna Naan Thaan
Neengal Illamal, Naan Ingu Illai…..Illai
Naam Iruvarum Saerum Samayam
Nam Kaikaliley Varum Imayam
Naam Thottathu Ethuvum Amayum
Ithu Anbaal Innaindha Idhayam
Remember these lines from Rahman’s Anbe Aaruyirey. He is getting to what he has been promising for a long-time now.
A R Rahman kick starts his KM Music Conservatory, an organization that teaches music in Chennai. It’s an appreciable effort and I hope they keep proceeding as planned. Looks like it is a joint venture with Audio Media Education which is the first Apple authorized training centre.
This is what he had to say about this organization, “There are 1.4 billion people in India and thousands of musicians but there is no symphony orchestra with our very own musicians while even smaller countries have their own orchestra. So, the reason to start the KM Conservatory is simple. Most of the young aspiring musicians want to learn more of electronic stuff. Acoustic instruments are of no interest to them. We want to start a course where students learn acoustic instruments as well as electronic instruments. It is important to raise awareness about different kinds of music,” he continues. ”
Giving back to the society is such a noble motive but I only hope the naturally talented guys get selected instead of just the rich kids. BTW what does KM mean ?
Why is rediff churning out such junk? Do they even know what they are talking about. Come on, this is the list of contemporary hottest jodis of kollywood and they have cheran-sneha on page 2. Cheran ?? Sneha ???
Looks like pageviews still rule the rediff team. That’s probably why they have one photo per page and some vaguely written text surrounded by tons of adblocks. Keep them coming !!

சமீபத்திய பாடல்களில் சிறந்த குத்துப் பாடல், காளை படத்தின், குட்டிப் பிசாசே தான். சிம்பு அவரின் தந்தையாரின் குரல் வளத்துடன், சரியான ஸ்ருதியுடன் பாடும் டண்டணக்காவும், ரேடியோ மிர்ச்சி சுசித்ரா வசீகரமான குரலுடன் பாடும் டணுக்குணக்காவும் தான் இப்போது என்னைப் போல் பலரை ஓட வைக்கும் பாடல்.
ரொம்பவே ரொமாண்டிக்கான இந்த கும்மாங்குத்துப் பாடலை இசையமைத்த ஜி.வி பிரகாஷுக்கு காசு மழை கொட்டக் கடவுக !!
