[arr] Re: The truth is Himesh and Yuvan are No.1...lets face it....

I agree TOTALLY with Krish & Ace Cool too !
but i am sure that the Best Seller of ARR will be a bigger Number
than the Best seller of anyother MD..isnt that rite ?
for e.g I am sure Ayutha Eluthu created Records of sort in Chennai..
but anyway numbers dont make everything...

btw, i buy each & every audio cassette of ARR...just for the sake of
buying an original..
in 1 week time, i manage to get high quality MP3.
