Thanks Gops! We needed this for a long time to make those "Tamil Fans" realise..what they've been upto.. While ARR is doing his best to promote universal brotherhood and love, our grp members are shattering it in the name of language and region. Shame on us! (Them,rather..) Just because our Mods are open minded and open to discussion, this does not give any one the freedom to misuse our forum! Stay Away!! like already told..it's easy to delete such posts..but it takes a lot more to be disciplined in an open forum like this. Gops, on behalf of the few of us who replied to the posts, sorry if we sounded rude..but truly, we cant take offence of what is told against ARR! He means a lot to us...and to the country..and to the....

I fail to understand what this brouhaha about 'Tamil fans' is about. I don't even know what this species "Tamil fans" is. But I know what characteristics a species called Tamil filmmakers have. The deceit and backhanded methods that they resort to. I am sure it will warm the hearts of the 'Tamil fans" here to know that ARR was pencilled into this project without his knowledge or consent and then emotionally blackmailed into doing it. He had the choice of kicking up a fuss, saying No and walking away. He did not. Instead, he chose the path of dignity. The same 'Tamil dignity' that some of you will lay claim to. And what does he get for this? Abusive and derogatory remarks. There are no Tamil fans, Hindi fans or Swahili fans on this forum. We truly believe in the universality of music. If any of you wish to form regional cliques to > cater to your parochial urges, I am afraid your GPS brought you to the wrong place. And no matter, where you go, you have the choice of what music you want to listen to and what musician you support. You can say goodbye to A.R.Rahman and his music if you don't like either. I strongly encourage you to exercise that choice. I hope, abusing someone for one's one inadequacy in appreciating the scale of achievement of this man, is not the trait of a "Tamil fan". Most of us here would not have loved ARR's music any lesser, had he been born in Timbuctoo or had we been born in Wollongong. And we would like to keep it that way.
