Hi Mirza, Thanks for the post..!
The info that Dil Se was NOT inspired is good to know. Hats off to Vijay TV. They do well with this kinda stuff. I remember some other promo where they used a DHOOL song for Jackie Chan movie. I have a doubt...If the LOTR stage show itself begins this Feb (which is 2006, right?), how come the music comes one year late?? I dont remember whether the Bombay Dreams CD came so late, did it?? Thanks again! Chandra. --- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, Mirza Munas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Hi Chandra and the Rahmaniacs, > > Some clarifications for Chandra's post...
