So saad that this has come from such a talented musician as Pyarelal..Comparing him to Pritam was not at all just..And in this age of globalisation we still are stuck up with the The Great Divide between north and south..Why dont we just listen to a music composition and appreciate it without thinking about , who gave it, where does he come from ...etc.. And why do we always have to compare people?? He says that he shud have won it for Lagaan.. Lagaan was nominated for "best foreign lannguage film" and being in that category, there was no way Rahman would have a got a nomination in the Best Original Score category !! I think Pyarelal ji , being such an experienced artist, should have known at least this !!! Siddharth

"That he came from the south to the north is not new either Iliaraja did it before him. I like his music but I am very blunt." Ilayaraja is great but no way did he conquer the North like Rahman did. I'm sorry. That's false. --- In arrahmanfans@ yahoogroups. com, Sam <samsinging@ ...> wrote: > > Not sure what he means by this.. >  > He is good, but he is not the best according to me nor has he done anything very different.
