Hello Everyone, I joined this group a few months ago but have never posted a message until now. I hope you don't minde my jumping into this discussion.
Vishwesh, the listening public is certainly influenced by comments made on popular shows. The reason these comments are made is because they know that the comments have an effect on people. People who host shows of their own in the electronic media have the power in them to either promote or not promote a product, movie, song, politician etc. The drop in sales of ARR's music is there for everyone to see. If the public is not made aware of his music it is unlikely that his music will generate sales. In this group, we are all fans of ARR's music and we proactively seek his music. This is not true however for the majority of music listenership in the country. So every positive and negetive comment and/or promotion matters. Though anecdotal, you will find the general listenership parroting comments made by people such as Sajid Khan on various mailings, forums and living rooms discussions. Just my two cents.
