Point well made. Although Maruti does sell more than mercedes, when
it comes to class and perfection, comes nowhere near it. Maruti is
aimed at th aam junta. Where as a Merc is for those who enjoy and
afford the "best". Same way Himesh targets the masses, he makes what
ppl want. Where as Sir ARR make music, which is a class in itself, he
doesn't compromise quality to suit taste of the masses. But somehow I
think this discussion is a bit irrelevant, Sir Rahman has only
recently had a huge success with RDB, so his music still is very much
popular. Also to judge by sales of audio is has lost it's relevance
as u've said b4 me that ppl download mp3 and stuff.
