This is ultimate yaar... the view of dealer from Burma Bazzar, 
Chennai.. 
 
One More.. It's from a dealer  from chennai's burma bazzar, who sells pirated 
movie cds..this came in Deccan Chronicle.. I had opened my shop almost 2 hours 
in advance as we were bracing ourselves for an onslaught of slumdog fans to 
throng the bazzar early on monday morning. True to our expectations, we sold of 
all our copies by 11am and we are expecting more stocks in a day. Its a Joyus 
mood for everyone here as a muscian from our city has won an honour of this 
magnitude.

talking about ONE critic who always thought AR  is going to disappear over 
time.   
Wrong Wrong. I don't know  how people become music critic without any

after which I did Lagaan, Rang de Basanti and few more for him. I like his 
orchestration. He keeps his music simple and expressive. My favourite Rahman 
song is Jiya Jale.. from Dil Se, which I sang for him. 

Asha Bhonsle: He has made all of us proud. I first worked with him in Rangeela 
and saw the spark in him. He always said he wanted to go international with his 
music. He focussed only on work to realise his dream. I told him during Taal 
that someday he is gong to make us all proud at an international platform. 
Before leaving for the Golden Globe he reminded me of my prophecy. 
 
Music director Pritam said he was overjoyed to hear the news about Rahman's 
success. "Rahman is the best. He has made India proud," 
 
Jackie Shroff : "Rahman's win is special. India deserves to be on the top. Such 
an honour is never too late." 
 
Monty sharma : 'it is a great achievement indeed for India and Indian music. I 
have been and am a big fan of A R Rahman. He genuinely deserves every bit of 
name, fame and success he is getting. I wish him luck and best wishes from the 
bottom of my heart

Shahrukh Khan: It is a proud moment for every Indian. Rahman has made us proud 
by winning the coveted award. I was an invitee to the award ceremony. To 
witness an Indian achieve the feat is an achievement in itself.

Drummer Sivamani: He is a musician par excellence. He deserves the award. I had 
been associated with him for a long time. To watch him working in close 
quarters is a delight. 'Slumdog Millionaire' is a jewel in Rahman's Crown. He 
deserves many more honors.

Aamir Khan: A great musician….Rahman is a rare talent. He is sure to go places. 
I wish him all the very best for his future endeavors.

Do you think the film will win an Oscar too?


I'm sure it will be nominated for the Oscars in many categories, and we will 
get at least two awards. I want Rahman to definitely win an Oscar for Slumdog 
Millionaire.
