Early life[edit]

Music was something that was natural to him since he hails from a musical family. His parents, J. M. Raju and Latha Raju, are playback singers in Malayalam while his grandmother, late Smt. Santha P. Nair and grandfather, late K. Padmanabhan Nair were well known names in the Malayalam music industry in 60s and 70s. Though in his school days he wanted to become a professional cricketer and represent India in the International level, his under graduation days at SVCE (Chennai) had other plans for him. His college mates inspired him to take up singing and bass guitar in parallel in his last year. Months of practice made Aalaap a self-taught musician in playing bass guitar and singing, Aalaap's name spread through the most prestigious cultural events in India especially 'Saarang' (hosted by Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Chennai) where he was awarded 'Best Instrumentalist' for his bass playing. And that was the starting point of numerous recording sessions and live performances in India and abroad. His singing took more prominence once Ennamo Yedho and 'Engeyum Kadhal' released in 2011, composed by Harris Jayaraj. Aalaap now concentrates on singing and bass playing equally in Studios and Live.^[2]

Career[edit]

As a singer and bass player, Aalaap has performed with several prominent artists such as Dr. T.V. Gopalakrishnan, Dr. How do i unlock iphone 5s for free. L. Subramaniam, Frank Dubier, etc., and has recorded with noticeable composers such as Ilayaraja, Harris Jayaraj, Mani Sarma, G.V Prakash, Thaman, Deepak Dev etc. He has more than 300 concerts to his credit.

He has been part of the prestigious Europalia Festival '13 (hosted by ICCR India: Indian Council for Cultural Relations), as a bass player for Dr. L. Subramaniam covering countries like Italy, Netherlands, Belgium, Spain, Russia, Sweden, Latvia and Iceland.

Aalaap is part of a Neo-Carnatic-Funk band called Project YUJ, a four piece line up composed of Electric Mandolin, Electric Bass, Keyboards and Acoustic Drums. Yuj, a Sanskrit word that means to join or to concentrate, is indicative of the group’s manifesto – to bring out and fuse its multitude of influences into a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts. The group members' diverse musical backgrounds and formidable chops allow for flights of improvisational freedom and virtuosity while still maintaining accessibility and musicality. At present, there are not many groups in India that are really trying to improvise and authentically fuse all of these disparate styles while staying true to the vital aspects of each. Project YUJ fills that space!

He has formed a duo multi-genre band called Rahlaap (www.rahlaap.com) along with playback singer Rahul Nambiar. Rahlaap is out with their maiden self-titled multi-genre album. Available in his website www.rahlaap.com and other music portals like iTunes, Amazon, Hummaa, etc.

His Malayalam song 'Nenjodu Cherthu' for Yuvvh has become an instant hit on YouTube, crossing 1.4 million views in just 4 months of release.^[3]

Vandhan Vendraan

R.Kannan

Jiiva, Nandha, Taapsee, Santhanam

Vandhaan Vendraan has everything going for it- romance, eye catching photography in lush locations, peppy music and rollicking comedy. But does it work?

Arjun (Jiiva) who is desperately trying to meet Ramana (Nandha) the most powerful don in Mumbai, finally achieves his goal. He narrates how he had met Anjali (Taapsee) and fell in love with her.

But her businessman dad dies in a shoot-out on the streets of Mumbai and Ramana is the reason behind it. Now, Anjai has put a condition in front of Arjun that unless Ramana surrender before the police she will not get married to him and our hero is on the mission!

But the real twist lies in the second half when we realize that Ramana and Arjun are siblings and the younger brother?s secret agenda behind coming to Mumbai and getting close to the dreaded don. Jiiva carries his role with ease and Nandha as the cool underworld don approaches his part with restraint and minimalist fuss.

Santhanam provides comedy relief. Taapsee looks cute but her lip sync and dialogue delivery stick out like a sore thumb. The promising actress who practically lit up Aadukalam with her ebullient charm is let down by a thankless role.

Opnavinst 4790 3m manual pdf. The key problem with the film is its script and narration. It can't decide if it wants to be a commercial potboiler set against the backdrop of underworld or a romantic musical. The love scenes between Jiiva and Taapsee falls flat and there is no chemistry between them.

The major plus point is Thaman?s music especially the hummable scores Kanchana Mala.. and Anjana Anjana.. and minty cool camerawork of PG Muthiah.

There are a few nice touches here and there, mostly the sincere attempts of the lead actors, locations and song picturisation but most of the scenes lack the energy that was required to make it interesting. Hence the pace drags and boredom sets in.
