I never said I would be happy if Tum Mile won over D6. That's only your interpretation. And yes, I didn't have D6 or any other ARR soundtrack in mind. I never said I wish Pritam to win over ARR. I said that I would be happy if Pritam won an award for any of his soundtracks this year, esp. since he's never won an award before. Would I be disappointed if D6 or any other ARR soundtrack lost? Yes. I don't know why you would question that.
Let's put this to rest. I'm tired of defending myself again and again over the same thing when I don't need to. Your apologies are accepted and don't worry yaar, with email, such misinterpretations happen all the time. --- In [email protected], Indmov Buff <indmovb...@...> wrote: > > Chord, I donât think my post was in response to what you > think âis a lack of blind devotionâ or rather appreciation for other > composers. Iâd like to think that I am also a fan of > good music and not blindly devoted Rahmanâs only.  Iâve said it to > friends before and in this > forum tooâ" I look forward to seeing SEL win at the awards someday.
