 I can definitely meet with fellow ARR fans. In fact I tried to 
 do a get together but did not find any responses frm here. I 
 think there are just not enough rahmaniacs in nyc area

  Hi Niyant,
  
  I am Steve, in West Virginia, about 5-6 hours from NY. Wish I 
 could make it to the get together, but I'm afraid I am bogged 
 down with some heavy work load that weekend. Hopefully, your 
 initiative will kick start a snowball and maybe I can meet NY 
 Rahmaniacs in the near future! I just want to let you know I 
 appreciate your efforts and wish you lots of fun on May 9th :-)
  
  Steve!

   Hi, 
   
   I'm planning a get-together on May 9th (next Saturday) of 
 ARR fans in the NY/NJ area. I hail from Mumbai and have been in 
 NY/NJ for abt two yrs. Swapnil and some other local Mumbai fans 
 used to meet there regularly and we had great time at ARR meets. 
 For a few hours we would be talking, listening, watching and 
 breathing everything-ARR. I got only fonder of ARR through these 
 meets. I've been a fan since Roja days - after being to these 
 meets I realized I was only one of the many ARR fan-atics out 
 there. 
   
   I thought it would be great to have something similar in the 
 NY/NJ area!! 
   
   So, come on over -- if you're a fan from ARR's vintage-music 
 years or have just discovered his music through some his recent 
 hits. With last year's terrific music like Jodhaa Akbar, 
 Ghaniji, Slumdog, Elizabeth, etc. - we'll have lot of material 
 to listen to, discuss, critique, etc. We'll listen to some 
 new/old music, discuss his new/old work, etc. 
   
   If this excites you -- you're most welcome to huddle at my 
 modest apartment next Saturday. 
   
   Contact
   email: niyant DOT dalal AT gmail DOT com (preferable)
   phone: 646.259.3319
   (Email me if you're interested and I'll send you the details)
   
   When
   3PM on Saturday, May 9th 
   
   Where
   At my apartment (mail me for the exact address details) 
   
   What to get
   Yourself (if you have some ARR concert DVD, rare interviews, 
 etc - it's a bonus)
   
   Cheers,
   Niyant
   
   PS: Swapnil ... you can see I'm missing our Mumbai jam 
 sessions :)

Thanks, Vithur.

Three friends from Chennai (two resident and one who visits twice
a year) have told me that they can't find the CD or the DVD...

  Boys DVD is easily available in India, esp in Tamil Nadu.
 
 It was supposed to be released in Hindi, and I think that has 
 been shelved,
 due to some production problems.

   I am not a fan of the album as a whole, but that song is just
   incredible with one of the most infectious and catchy rhythm and
   guitar loop patterns. One of ARR's finest in my opinion. The
   melody and the grandeur sound towards the end makes this
   composition a complete winner. I wrote about this song now
   because I'm hearing it after a while and almost forgot what an
   amazing, upbeat track this is.
