Although his brand of cinema is different (forget abt someone liking or disliking it, it is matter of personal taste), why would he mind about recording timings, recording studio etc, if he really wants quality music from ARR? And when he is known for spending a lot on his films (extravagant sets or swiss locales etc), why would he act stingy when it comes to music...that too, when he himself is seeking a composer he admired, admittedly? > > Guys, dont get carried away by the article. in my opinion, the article shows both ARR and Yash Chopra in negtive light. > > > > Regards > Kamal Aakarsh Vishnubhotla. > > http://kamal-aakarsh.blogspot.com > > > --- On Sat, 10/11/08, Vithur <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > From: Vithur <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: [arr] Rahman snubs Yash Chopra > To: [email protected] > Date: Saturday, October 11, 2008, 9:53 PM > > > > > > > > > I dont believe in this...

Staying awake in the nights and recording is ARR 's wish and comfort. That cant be areason at all.... Sounds very foolish to me. If Yashraj cant be awake in the night, he can very well go during the day, and ask ARR to play the tune, that he has recorded. > > Is Yash Raj Studios better than Panchathan or AM studios. ??
