Re: [arr] what's the meaning of HOSANNA ???
Since Trisha's character in VTV is a Christian this should be the meaning: "Hosanna" (Greek transcription: ὡσαννά, hōsanna) is the cry of praise or adoration shouted in recognition of the Messiahship of Jesus on his entry into Jerusalem, Hosanna! Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord![3] It is used in the same way in Christian praise. Overall, it seems that "Hosanna" is a cry for salvation; while at the same time is a declaration of praise. Therefore, it may be derived that this plea for help is out of an agreeably positive connotation. The old interpretation "Save, now!" which may be a popular etymology, is based on Psalm 118:25 (Hebrew הוֹשִׁיעָה נָּא hOshEeah-nna) (Possibly "Savior"). This does not fully explain the occurrence of the word in the Gospels, which has given rise to complex discussions.[4] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hosanna http://indian-music-bgm.blogspot.com/ Please do not add me in YM.

[arr] Top 5 Composers Of The Year (radiosargam.com)
5- Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy- Post Rock On, the expectations were high and the trio has been successful in recreating magic this year by giving exceptional albums like Wake up Sid, Luck By Chance and London Dreams. The versatility and the newness were felt with their every album. Wake Up Sid was extremely refreshing, catchy and well suited the taste of today's youth. Luck By Chance was something unique, unconventional and yet pretty likeable as well as enjoyable. London Dreams was a power-pack album. Full of energy, liveliness and dynamism, the album was an instant favourite of the masses. 4- Vishal Bharadwaj- Like his direction, the way of composing music too is eccentric and atypical. Kaminey was a real magnum opus from Vishal Bharadwaj. Vishal composed six tracks: energetic, romantic, murky, aesthetic and boasting, with each song encompassing a totally different feel from the other. A sure shot winner and a dhinchaak album from the composer creating hullabaloo all over. 3- Amit Trivedi- After an impressive debut with Aamir last year, Amit Trivedi delivers one of the most stimulating and challenging album of the year Dev D. Amit Trivedi comes up with his second movie score which is just the most radical mainstream Bollywood album ever. Trivedi composed as many as 18 tracks: angry rock, real classical, honey-soaked melodies, novel fusion and some plain good music, each track comprising of some unique feeling. The album made the nation go crazy with its eccentric style and left the listeners startling 2- Pritam Chakraborty- This composer is on the run and has made it big in the Bollywood in a very short period. The music maestro is known for his fast-pacy numbers, energetic songs, authentic guitar tracks and soothing romantic numbers. The list of his composition is never ending and has delivered surely the biggest albums of the year. However to name a few Billu Barber, New York, Tum Mile, Love Aaj Kal, Tum Mile, All The Best and Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani were exhilarating and premium compositions. In short this is Pritam's year, delivering chartbusters by dozens all through the year. 1- A.R. Rahman- This music composer needs no description. A.R. Rahman deserves every bit of appreciation from the entire country for giving phenomenal albums and outstanding music for over a decade. But this year was special as the composer was internationally acclaimed and given the Oscar's for his masterpiece Slumdog Millionaire, making every Indian proud. A.R. Rahman also delivered this year albums like Delhi-6 which had roots of the Indian origin with loads of classical music embed in it and Blue being totally different with western touch filled with tons of spunk and attitude. A.R. Rahman has proved time and again that he is one of the finest and premium music composers around the globe. http://www.radiosargam.com/films/archives/57152/memories-2009-rs-top-5-composers-of-the-year.html

[arr] Notable highlights of the decade
http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/Notable-highlights-of-the-decade/articleshow/5380691.cms Before Danny Boyle made the movie, nobody had heard the word 'slumdog' . Reason: it didn't exist. Now, eight Oscars and $377 million worth of business later, it is a bona fide word in the English language. For Slumdog Millionaire (2008) wasn't just a movie; it was a cultural marker across the globe. When a movie is viewed in 99 countries and sells tickets worth $1.7 million even in Venezuela, there is no other way to describe it. In the UK, it was the biggest box-office hit of the time, beating even Twilight and Star Trek. Make no mistake. Slumdog wasn't a Bollywood production. But its storyline, the travails of two brothers taking two divergent career paths, and denouement - that there's a great girl and a pot of gold beyond every pile of shit, literally in this case - is what Bollywood has been doing for the past century or so. Even though its narrative style was western, Slumdog's DNA was strictly Bollywood. So was its original story, locale, actors and the magical words the world grooved to, Jai Ho! The three Oscars won by A R Rahman, Resul Pookutty and company and the consequent media euphoria further helped India appropriate the firang flick. Now, over a year later, when Jai Ho is played at the Indian section of the Cairo Film Festival, the appropriation is complete. Slumdog isn't the best Discover India advertisement ever made; but it definitely has raised curiosity about India and its movies. But to over-emphasise Slumdog would be to undermine the great global narrative that Bollywood has crafted over the last decade. Once a marginal revenue source, the overseas market commands centrestage these days. Trade experts say that over the decade collections abroad have grown 10 times and can range from 20 per cent to 80 per cent of a film's overall collection. In 2006, Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna grossed Rs 46.4 crore in India and collected Rs 44.5 crore abroad. In 2007, Om Shanti Om amassed $26 million at home; another $10 million came from overseas. Still, no set of statistics can fully encapsulate the enormous gigabyte of mind space that Bollywood has come to occupy in Euro-rich and dollarfriendly homes across the world. And not all are brown-skinned immigrants. Forget Africa, which thrives on pirated Bollywood. Forget West Asia where New York (the Bollywood take on being a Muslim in the US post-9 /11) is a super hit. In New York (the megapolis), Bollywood movies are the second most requested genre with one million digital customers of Bodvod, a leading movies-on-demand service. In Helsinki, dance schools teach Aishwarya Rai jhatkas . In cities as far apart as Berlin, Bangkok and Boston, Shah Rukh Khan and Akshay Kumar are like hotlines to heaven for both teenage girls and their mothers. And every Indian tourist abroad has a tale or two about the crazy Hindi film addict they met at an airport or in a pub. Under steady construction for a decade, Brand Bollywood, with a leg up from Slumdog, has emerged as India's most feelgood global signature, its brightest sunshine export. And this is just the beginning.

Why complaints!!! Exposure is not for AR nor GM. only for the film. What is wrong with that? Take it as positive sense.
