Gopal, Agreed that NETAJI version was the INA anthem, but so is our current Jana Gana Mana. As we list Rahman's JanaGanaMana as HIS interpretation / composition, so also can we accept the INA version as Rahman's interpretation of that anthem, hence his composition ?
We will have to wait till the DVD of NETAJI is available. Any idea when it will be released ?

I was just waiting to get hold of the lyrics before including it. IRR, it begins with a 'Laage...' >
