[arr] is Rahman really popular in non resident Chennaites/Tamilians?
I have lots of Tamil/chennaites friends where I am working, but I am totally surprised whenever I travel in their cars I never hear any of rahman's songs...never ever...It really pains yesterday one of them was travelling with me... and he can't realise or recognise Taxi song or even Marudhani or any song from Sakkarkathi... they simply are not aware... I really don't know Arijit
Re: [arr] is Rahman really popular in non resident Chennaites/Tamilians?
Dear Arijit Yes. thats partly true.. AR is in a way been considered as a Bollywood Music Director in the Tamil Industry and Tamil Audience. As he is unable to do that many Tamil movies , as compared to Hindi ones, it apparently looks like people are not able to keep in touch with AR 's tamil compositions. This in no way means, that AR is not famous here or anything of that sorts. People are not able to keep track of releases of Tamil flm songs by AR, unlike before. Here in Tamil Cinema, its dominated by Vidyasagar, Harris Jeyaraj, Yuvan Shankar Raja. Though he may no be able to do that many Tamil movies, yet whenever he comes with a Tamil music, he rocks rocks rocks.. No second thoughts. For me, no qualms at all. If he touches his keyboard, thats enough. Even if he composes in Nepali language, i would go and buy the CD and get immersed with it.

Arijit... it happens and i've faced it quite a lot of times. only after the movie is released the songs start hitting those people On Tue, Aug 5, 2008 at 7:31 AM, Arijit Debnath [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have lots of Tamil/chennaites friends where I am working, but I am totally surprised whenever I travel in their cars I never hear any of rahman's songs...never ever...It really pains yesterday one of them was travelling with me... and he can't realise or recognise Taxi song or even Marudhani or any song from Sakkarkathi... they simply are not aware...

Re: [arr] is Rahman really popular in non resident Chennaites/Tamilians?
Actually we are die hard fans to get rahman's latest work at any costmay be that is the reason we expect the same thing from others... U'll be surprised to know how I get the Tamil/hindi albums so quickly... Being tamil CDs, I hv my friends at Chennai...who buy it for me and courier to my home at Kolkata...and u must appreciate my mom's credibility... who took all the pain to learn from me how to rip songs from CD... and then she send them through mail. may be we r expecting similar efforts from everybody..which is not possiblebut its really painful when I don't listen to any song by our Guru from a fellow Tamilian...

I guess becos its a new movie and also it takes time for the songs in sakkrakatti to grow on you.

To each his own, Arijit. We could even put this way that it is their loss, not ours :) Let's enjoy the music and leave the rest to their own preferred tracks.
