Continuing its tradition of empowering our surfers, *Bollywood Hungama* brings
to you a first-of-its kind Music Awards, that's based on an online polling
from surfers across the globe. We are sure that even the late Abraham
Lincoln must be extremely happy with these awards, for these awards reflect
his ideology, which is, 'Of the people' and 'By the people'. The USP of
these awards is that there are no judges and panelists. It's YOU guys who
have chosen the deserving winner. Moreover, though online, this is also the
First award ceremony for the year 2008.

(In order to ensure zero spamming and nullify multiple votings, we made the
voting system to pass through a fool-proof 3-step process of Email
Validation, Cookie Check and IP check)

*Best Soundtrack*

Here's the first award, which is for the 'Best Soundtrack', and which quite
deservingly goes to *Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na*! The film's music was composed by
none other than music maestro A.R. Rahman himself. The soundtrack of this
film swayed back the listeners to a nostalgic trip of the melodious *'Qayamat
Se Qayamat Tak'* days! Even though the chartbuster track *'Aditi'* (sung by
the debutante Rashid Ali) got itself the honour of being hailed as the sweet
love anthem, all the other tracks in the album equally struck the right
chord with the listeners.

When *Bollywood Hungama* spoke to the legendary Rahman himself about this
achievement, he said, It feels really good when the hard work and sincerity
one puts in a song is appreciated. Thanks to your website (
www.bollywoodhungama.com) and all the voters for the love and the awards."

While *Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na* walked away with the top honours, we have the
first runner up in *Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi* (with Salim Sulaiman as its
composers) and the second runner up in *Ghajini* (Rahman again!). Even
though the talented duo of Salim-Sulaiman faced some early criticism, they
sailed their way into the hearts of the listeners *'Haule Haule'*.

On the other hand, when you have the divine magical fingers of Rahman
calling the (musical) shots in *Ghajini*, one can never go wrong on the
tracks that simply gets (read 'mesmerizes') the listeners under its sway.

Based on the votes provided by our surfers and the validation done by us,
the Award for the *'Music Company of the Year'* goes to*T-Series*. While the
Award for the *'Music Director of the Year*' goes to *A.R.Rahman*.
