Dude, THe comments by Sen are outlandish and uninformed. There is no substance behind it. Yes, it's his opinion, but he doesn't back it up. That's not a review. It's an impulsive comment full of vitriol. I think my reaction was justified. And I have nothing against people complaining about Rahman's music as long as it's done intelligently, informed, and with good rationale and reasoning.
