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 !

Amrita might feel that Jai Ho does not deserve the Oscar simply because she, 
like many of us, would have grown up listening to ARR's other mindblowing 
compositions which he gave from time to time. But what she fails to understand 
is, Jai Ho was catered for the western audience, many of whom would not even 
heard about ARR (prior to SdM). 

Thus, to many of us, Jai Ho might be just one of ARR's song, but for the 
western audience, it's a new dimension in the music industry. That's why it was 
loved so much...

Remember when Roja came? Til' Roja happened, we would not even thought that a 
first-night song could make people jump and dance, the way Rukumani did! 

At the end of the day, what matters is the audience and if Jai Ho was given the 
Oscar, its because the audience feel that it deserves so...

I think 'Jai Ho' as a song really deserve Oscar! 


It's far better and different if you compare it with other songs in same 
category or even if you compare it with previous years oscar winning songs. 


ARR songs have magic in them!


They are much more than Oscar to me!


I feel getting Oscar is one medium for ARR to reach world audience his songs 
are much more than what Oscars are!

2009-07-01 Thread yogesh2783

We should not give much importance to Amruta's comments.
Those comments are out of her ignorance about the Academy and its categories.
This ignorance was found all over the India..so leave it.
I feel that our personalities from films should have good knowledge
of what happens in International film academies and how they work.
Here 'bollywood' gyus and gals just attend film premiers/parties
and awards to show off.
I remember once Kareena kapoor called Sonia Gandhi 'first lady
of India'..i was completely ROFL!!

2009-07-01 Thread : Avinash :

I love the Jai Ho song, but when you are switching to other ARR's songs
(on mp3 player) you find something missing in Jai Ho!! Yes, Rahman took
only 1/5th of his standard time (as he mentioned) to compose SDM, so we
miss his fine nuances  arrangements, polished vocals  that Rehmanish
mood...

But on other way, I find Jai Ho a Grand fusion song which has
universal appeal with it's authentic indian vocal, western instruments,
bollywood flavour, and techno feel .

I am really tired at seeking our Bollywood artists' intelligence. I agree that 
AR's other music deserves Oscar but would somebody please please shout at them 
that those movies did not stand till the last level and that Music for 
international movies isn't a category. And though Lagaan went till the last 
mile music wouldnt have got the music bcs there is no category. 
Even if Amrita Rao acts to the best in a Bollywood movie it will not get her 
the Oscar for best Actress.
