Hi Vanitha, I am all with you in your above wish. I also wish to see ARR rule the world of music, at home and allover the world. However, I couldn't stop myself from noticing that you seem to say that you are absolutely clueless what went wrong with ARR's music in these two releases (also include bose and most of the releases of last year, san Swades) that earned him such bad reviews. Thus, you are actually hoping against hope for some magic or god's will to set things right for ARR. I worry that this is not logical enough to happen. I differ slightly on this. The members of this had their antenna rightly tuned and they had sensed that MP is not going to be a hit, nor to fetch good reviews. In fact, that is what had led to so many arguments and fights since 14th Jul when MP was released. Thus, it is better if, instead of condemning a member who writes bad words about ARR's releases, we try to find out the views of those members what they felt missing in these albums. That would become a useful feedback for ARR. -- Rawat ------------------------ Yahoo!
