Aravind, Are you basing your statements on Roopa Iyer's assertions? In that case they might not be grounded in fact. ARR told Vijay that he was recently approached by Airtel for another jingle.
While it is true that Airtel was approached by the organizers and, for reasons unknown to us, they declined, one of the reasons for going with Spice Telecom was that they are the only mobile operator who has a mobile ticketing facility with a user base of over 30000 people.
