This is word-by-word copy of PUNE MIRROR supplement of Times of India paper published today ( 9'th May 2009 ) from Pune.....
............ Headline > RAHMAN KNOWS RAHMANIA ! The Oscar winner was in the city to talk about his concert later this month. We managed to get a few words out of the maestro's mouth. Surprisingly, he knows about the city's fan band, RAHMANIA ! Main news on page 39 > THE MAN RAHMAN ! ( by Ashwin Khan ) After many guesses and speculations, the car carrying AR Rahman finally arrived......... But luck was on our side, we were summoned to meet the man himself. ( Pune Mirror correspondent = PM ) PM : Sir, are you aware that there is a group based in Pune called Rahmania ? ARR : ...He gave a knowing smile and answered, "Yes, I know about Rahmania." Rahmania is a city based group that absolutely adores Rahman. They only sing songs by Him. However, Rahmania has no affiliation with the musical genius or anybody associated with him. ................ Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ! We thank fellow Rahmaniacs who made this happen, especially some 3-4 Rahmaniacs and they DONT STAY IN PUNE ! Jai HO ! Dinesh Vaidya The Wandering Souls "RAHMANIA" Pune ( May 09, 2009 )
