[arr] Re: Vishal-Shekhar thrilled by AR’s appreciation

Dude, V-S are one of the most versatile composers around, other than SEL and 
AR. They have done damn well in the recent past, I think Dostana, BEH, Om 
Shanti Om and a few songs from Bhootnath, Cash, De taali were all good. They 
have found a nomination at all leading award function consistently for about 3 
years now.
