Though I m a huge fan of ARR I agree with Jahanzeb because its natural reaction. We (rahmanics) can ignore such discussions, but we have to face it from others, I have experienced a lot in my surrounding. Even I have heard from the fans of ARR that todays ARR's music is far behind from his previous work (which hurts me a lot).
I love all ARR work even 'kabhina kabhi' which many people may not like. But I face the truth after Dil se and Taal ARR has not given that kind of mastepiece (whole album). I dont mean the same kind of music like Roja, Bombay, Dil se, Taal etc. I mean of that standard. Plz try to understand my point. Or may be ARR creats that kind of magic in 7-8 years or when ever he wants. Few songs of our boss in recent time which I like as much as those masterpieces r kabhi kabhi addity, saathiya, fanaa, oh humdum, taxi taxi, paathshala, tu binbataye, khalbali and few more. Love ARR always.
