srgmp too jolly for my liking.

A Jolly old time:

this srgmp is getting too jolly for my liking.
it is due to the fact that the following people have been entered in as judge:

1) Pritam chakraborty:





2) Shankar Mahadevan:




Reasons:

1) Pritam acts like a kind father who is leniant on his children and wants to be "nikumbh sir":
Pritam does thing like encouraging mediocrity with him sayin "ok chalo main tumko history deta hoon!"
the value of history has deteriorated because of this man.
He also tries to be aamir khan in taare zameen par when he supports thebodheeth(debojit) datta
he says that he's "special" and can win . I'm sick of this man. I used to like him on chhote ustaad but i guess it was because i disliked "mr. i dont think so" kunal ganjawala and "ms. i'm jealous of aishwarya and anwesha is a clone of me so i dont need to worry abt my monopoly" Shreya ghoshal so much.
His niceness bores me. Even ismail's mindless comments are more entertaining, like his" all theee bayst" and "beta tu aage jaaega".

2) Himesh and aadesh cant be their loud rowdy selves due to shankar's standing in the industry :
Don't get me wrong. Shankar is a great judge and is sensible. But he prevents thugs like aadesh and himesh to spread masala and drama. They will ruin their image if they clash with shankar mahadevan.
Himesh can't cunningly demoralise the other gharana's anymore nor can he create love stories.Aadesh cant insult lady singers like alka yagnik. I missed that. Challenge 05 was so good where himesh said controversial things and lost. Here he's the good guy and so is aadesh. So there's no "justice has prevalied" factor this time which ch 05 had.


Further more, the mediocrities have been sustaining here because of nikumbh chakraborty.

No offence to anyone.. this is my opinion.
Your comments and thoughts and even contradictions will be welcome and appreciated.

I watch just because of Shankar and Pratibha on the show.

I think if Shankar Mahadevan, Vishal, Shekar, and Sonu Nigam are only judges on the show, it could be the best SRGMP possible.

Chor Machaye Shor! | 2008-04-29

The music industry's honorable pick pocketers!


Why do people steal? That would be the fundamental question. Why does anyone steal? It most probably is because they do not have the means to get to the thing they desire. Hence, they rob. In these days of murders and terrorism, stealing might have taken a backseat, but it is no smaller a crime. To rob a man of his belongings is punishable quite severely in some countries. And yet, when the object being stolen is IP (intellectual property), this stealing is not castrated at birth. In fact, sometimes, this stealing is praised and even applauded.

When we got wind of the Ram Sampath-Rajesh Roshan fracas (we know ' it's stale news), we didn't expect to unearth as much as we did. We didn't expect to find the depths of plagiarism our industry was dealing with. And most of all, we didn't expect to find that no one gave a f**k!

Here's the low down. Most of our most respected music directors are chors. They lift tunes, note for note, never give credit where it's due and worse, make money from the proceedings. We've dug up some of these guys, with a list of their crimes. Read on, talk about it with your friends and spread the word. Yeh sab chor hai!

Pritam - Chor No. 1


The biggest offender on our list is obviously Pritam. Only really getting his foot into Bollywood in 2003, Pritam has built a reputation on tunes that are flicked by the lick. Can't really blame him - the dude's making music for 12 films in 2008! That's at least 100 songs. Ask any song writer worth his salt how difficult that might be - and then consider that each of these 100 songs are for mass consumption and you know exactly why these guys resort to the back door. No single human composer could pull it off. Anyways - here's a list of his offences.

1. Shikdum from 'Dhoom'-Stolen from Turkish singer Tarkan's 'Sikidim'

2. Dil Samundar from 'Garam Masala'- Stolen from Turkish singer Tarkan's Kuzu Kuzu

3. Chori Chori from 'Garam Masala'- Stolen from Dr Zeus's 'Hai rabba Garam'

4. Zahreeli Raatein from 'Chocolate'-Stolen from Jal's 'Aadat'

5. Bheega Bheega Sa from 'Chocolate'- Stolen from Abrar-ul-Haq's 'December'

6. Halka Halka Sa from 'Chocolate'- Stolen from Jesse Cook's 'Breeze from Saintes Maries'

7. Jhoom from 'Ek Khiladi Ek Hasina'-Flicked from a Pepsi commercial featuring Britney!

8. Dil Mein Baji Guitar from 'Apna Sapna Money Money'- Inspired by Miami Band's 'Sheloha shela'.

9. Signal from 'Bhagam Bhag' is inspired by a Trinidadian Soca hit, 'Signal for Lara' by Superblue

10. Even his super hit songs from 'Bhool Bhulaiyya' are inspired by Bill Hailey's 'Oriental Rock' and Korean hip-hop group, JTL's 'My lecon'

All his 'inspirations' have not been listed here. Just his biggest hits! But the modus operandi seems clear. Pritam obviously buys a lot of World music - music that he believes no one hears. He then finds hooks and tunes he can lift off from not-so-well-known artists and puts his own chaap on them. Very sweet! You thought of everything you bearded little pork-chop - everything, except the internet. These days, when you flick a song, word gets around. Sorry to burst your bubble brother - but how far did you think you could get with this?


Malik sahab - Hit (Xerox) Machine


Anu Malik - there's no way we're leaving him out of this. While Pritam steals from obscure sources, Anu goes for the Platinum award winning records. Why should he be afraid when the copyright nets in India are so loose, you could swim a shark through it. Check out Anu's list. Not as long as Pritam's, but definitely more blatant!

1. Mera Piya Ghar Aaya from 'Yaarana'- Ripped off from the great Nusrat Ali Khan's 'Mera Piya Ghar'

2. Aisa Zakhm Diya Hai from 'Akele Hum Akele Tum'-The opening from Deep Purple's 'Child In Time'

3. Dil Mera Churaya Kyon from 'Akele Hum Akele Tum'- From Wham's 'Last Christmas'!

4. Raja Ko Rani Se Pyar Ho Gaya from 'Akele Hum Akele Tum'. From the Godfather theme!

5. In The Night from 'Khiladiyon Ka Khiladi'- But really by Laura Branighan's 'Self Control'

6. Arre Baba from 'Auzaar'- Actually, From Los Del Rio's 'Macarena'!

When you look at this list, you don't know whether to be pissed off or laugh or just give up and die. Pissed off, because Anu had the gall to steal songs which were all international super hits! Laugh because he actually got away with it. And die because we all are a part of an industry that let it happen! If Anu was around right now (and thank God he isn't), he'd most probably be sucking on the creative juices of Amy Winehouse.


Bappi the Ripper!


Now, say hello to kaidi number teen. Bappi da. We all love him for his bumbling ways and his over-the-top and into-the-gutter-wardrobe. But there's nothing bumbling about flicking tunes! Here's his panchnaama....

1. Hari Om Hari from 'Pyaara Dushman'- Flicked from 'One Way Ticket' by Neil Sedaka!

2. Tujse Milna Milkar Chalna from 'Amaanat'- From Khaled's 'El Arbi'!

3. Tamma Tamma from 'Thaanedaar'- From Mory Kante's Tama Tama!

4. Koi Yahan Nache Nache from 'Disco Dancer'- From the song 'Video killed the radio star'....by Buggles!

5. Mera Dil Gaayega Zoobie Zoobie from 'Dance Dance'- Actually by Modern Talking's 'Brother Louis'!

Bappi Da - good show! After flicking from the best musicians in the 'Bhaarld', you are now judging children's talent shows. Waah, waah! Keep it up.



RD too?


We are extremely saddened and disappointed that R.D. Burman too is a member of this infamous gang.

1. Mehbooba Mehbooba from 'Sholay'- Not by RD, but by Demis Roussoss's Say You Love Me!

2. Chura Liya Hai from 'Yaadon Ki Baraat'-Inspired by the theme of 'If it's Tuesday this must be Belgium'

3. Aao Twist Karein from 'Bhoot Bangla'- 'Come Lets Twist Again' by Chubby Checker!!

4. Ek Main Aur Ek Tu from 'Khel Khel Mein' was inspired by the nursery rhyme 'If You're Happy...'

What can you say? It was the 60s. RD most probably wanted to expose India to the hippie movement and liberate us. Lame!


Roshan Uncle


And finally, the main-man of the moment! Rajesh Roshan. After being caught with his pants down for flicking from an ad jingle by Ram Sampath, Roshan tried every trick in the book to come out of the mess looking shiny clean. From denying it completely to even printing full page letters in the papers, trying to salvage some dignity. Three cheers for Ram for sticking it to the man. Here's uncle's list.

1. Jab Koi Baat from 'Jurm'-From the song 'Here the whistle blow' by Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs

2. Koi Nahin Tere Jaisa from 'Keemat'- From Rednex's Cotton Eye Joe!

3. Main Teri Hoon Janam from 'Khoon Bhari Maang'- From the OST, Chariots of fire!

4. Haseena Gori Gori from 'Taraazu'-From Shaggy/ Mungo Jerry's 'In The Summertime'!

5. Bharo Maang Meri Bharo from 'Sabse Bada Khiladi'- Flicked from an Enigma tune!

6. Soot Boot Mein from 'Kishen Kanhaiya'- Inspired by the 50s New Orleans' song 'Iko iko'.

7. Idhar Chala from 'Koi Mil Gaya'-Lifted off a South American tune called 'Suenos'

8. Dil na diya from 'Krrish'- Stolen from the Turkish Military march track 'Ceddin deden'

If the 2 crores, the Roshan's paid to Ram Sampath is anything to go by, the Bollywood music fraternity owes the musicians of the world at least a thousand crores. We hope the industry learns not to support thieves.

i lost all my respect for mahadevan when he supported dabbo..
probably kyunki woh achcha aadmi hai.
