[arr] Re: Vinnaithaandi Varuvaaya - audio Launch in chennai - Video
GM-ARR combo looks dramatic and alluring.. it is very evident that they have
mutual admiration for each other and GM's beaming respect for AR makes me
really happy. should some one have watched the VTV chennai audio launch in
kalaignar tv or the videos uploaded in arrahmanworld closely , GM mentions
about the london launch ("Naan Bandha viduren, rahman music pannirukar , bandha
vidurathakkaka thaan vandhiruken") saying he chose London to literally show off
that his film has rahman sir music.. loved that footage. way to gooo ..!!

[arr] Jelena Karleua credits ARR (serbian folk singer)
The second update is a strange case Himesh is the aggrieved party. His chartbusting title song for Aashiq Banaya Aapne has been innovatively lifted by a Serbian pop-folk songer, Jelena Karleua for the song, 'Ko Ti To Baje' from her 2008 album, JK Revolution! Thanks to really persuasive Himesh fans like Jeetu, Yaju Arya and Bhavuk Arora for unearthing and updating me about this reverse-lift. Its very interesting to note that Jelena's version starts off from the Hindi song's antara and you can hear some background alaap in Himesh's vocals too, in the beginning of the clip! To the best of my knowledge, Jelena has not credited Himesh and her own name is noted against this song. Even more interesting is the fact that for the song, 'Mala' in the same album, A R Rahman has been credited as 'Written by'! This is nothing but Rahman's Guru number, 'Maiya maiya'! Wonder why Jelena credited only Rahman and not Himesh! I'm trying to source the CD cover so that the crediting part can be confirmed beyond relying on either http://www.itwofs.com/ Reference music piece are listed there
