In case you haven't noticed, (according to BOI - Anantha Narayanan has 
clarified that that's his source ), Race has sold 300,000 more copies than JA. 
I am complaining because I am of the opinion that more JA albums were sold 
(even in the North) than  listed in that chart and certainly not such a huge 
gap between Race and JA. I don't think rounding up numbers to the nearest 
100,000 is very professional either. Give us the exact numbers if you've got 
them (referring to BOI here). Also honestly, I feel a bit cheated that people 
would buy an album from a composer who has blatantly lifted tunes (Pehli Nazar 
for example) from others and called it his own work, over a JA.  

P.S: Btw, I don't understand the way those numbers are expressed, 9,00,000= 
900,000 right? Why is the comma after '9' and not after the zero ?)

Why are you complaining? JA is in the number 1 and 2 spots!

Buff,

9 lacks is written as 9,00,000 in India and not 900 thousand.

Can somebody please paste the text these articles carry?? It is really
frustrating to keep reminding

different systems: in india 9,00,000 is called a lakh but in european
system/north american 900 000 is called nine hundred thousand. but
both are equal.

  Opinion expressed by blogger :
   
  What I feel is that Jodha Akbar was not properly campaigned in the media. 
This helped the other films to gain an advantage against the Brilliant Jodha 
Akbar's music.

We need to change this trend. If the persons who are making the films with 
music by our Boss, and they ignore what the music can get the initial break, we 
the ARRahman Fans can make a difference.

We will have to initiate broad-spread campaigns to make our Boss's deserving 
music on top of charts.

2008-03-05 Thread arr pavan
If audience in north  east could not understand  adhere to the 
experimentation of sounds produced by arr, they cannot relish it fully which is 
why chances are more for their regular bollywood picks. But if you see the 
tabulation in this blog link JA ranks 1st in West  South areas whereas 2nd in 
North  East areas. Taking 50-50 equation, overall ranking should be both JA  
Race should share No.1 position to the chart shown based on regional sales. 
However, Promos play vital role in sales specially during audio launch period. 
If north  east fail in their efforts to the fullest in exhibiting promos 
properly, such results will happen.
