"Yet, if you listen to them without a bias (i.e.
I-refuse-to-like-anything-commercial-mindset), you'll enjoy them very
much. If you try to compare Ghajini to Rahman's previous works like
Dil Se, Bombay, Dil Hi Dil Mein, Pukaar, Taal, you'll most likely find
Ghajini disappointing. However, if you treat each of Rahman's works
separately (and, I suppose compare it to the utterly pathetic and
rubbish OSTs released this year by other MDs), chances are you'll
truly appreciate the music score of Ghajini. I've heard a lot of
comments from others that Ghajini is "too commercial"Â…but, can't
something that's commercial also be enjoyable? Is a film or OST that
is commercial yet of good quality automatically inferior to something
noncommercial but poorly executed? Or, do we expect everything by
Rahman to have his "oh-this-sounds-like-something-Rahman-created"
stamp all over it, and anything which diverts from that style we label
as commercial/conventional, mediocre (i.e. JTYJN), and not up to the
mark?"

Exactly my point earlier.
