well said Arijit. atleast u echo my thoughts. in short, anyone who speaks rubbish or illogical stuff needs to be bumped on. i understand that the verbiage is the issue.. its better if the people in the external world mind their words when talking about the genius who is the pinnacle of humility. what ARR has said in his felicitation today doesnt hold good not only for his fans but also to the other fellow musicians. so, if they mind their words/thoughts, we as fans would also mind our wordsthoughts.
ok, as suggested by others, lets stop this thread, may be now.
