About this "JAI HO" matter, I have been asked this question sometimes and this is what I have replied....
Point put forth by some who are "not happy" about JAI HO > A. Other Rahman songs deserve the Oscar but not Jai Ho (?) B. Jai HO is not a good song to get oscar (???) reply 1 > Inspite of "their" feeling, Jai Ho got Oscar, so "they" should remember that their "Will" is now "Nil". Jai Ho GOT OSCAR ! Take that ! reply 2 > Other Rahman songs or their movies were not in the list for nomination this year. Jai Ho was in the list, it was a good song so Jai Ho got oscar ! reply 3 > The Oscar team checked the 4-5 nominations this year and felt that Jai Ho was certainly outstanding song compared to others, so awarded the Oscars. reply 4 > Jai Ho was destined to get Oscar "IT WAS SO WRITTEN", now thinking "otherwise" is purely academic. As a Rahmaniac, it is but natural for me to KNOW that JAI HO, like all Rahman songs, is an outstanding track...... If someone feels otherwise, do I care ? Jai HO !
