Its not clear if Vaishnavar was an album or a film. The songs have the same tunes as some songs in Fantasy/Andhi Maalai which was also passed off as an ARR work. However, those songs were composed by Ouseappachan and ARR is supposed to have played the keyboard for those songs. The Vaishnavar inlay card had ARR prominently splashed on it and the songs were interspersed with a voice-over by Mohanlal who praises ARR for the music. So, that bit makes this entire thing intriguing. --- In [email protected], "dnshvaidya" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Dear Rahman Fans > > It gives me great pleasure communicating with admirers of AR Rahmans > music.
