With the AR's current Star status, people will listen to anything with AR's name. But quality matters too..

To: [email protected] Date: Monday, January 4, 2010, 4:36 AM Which Tamil ARR albums not dubbed in Hindi became somewhat recognized, appreciated, or popular up North? Language barriers do present themselves, but didn't the song "Thee Thee" from Thiruda Thiruda become known and liked in places like Mumbai, even before the Hindi dubbed Chor Chor was released? I would love to see a pure non Hindi dubbed Tamil album gain appreciation in the North again, probably too much to ask for in the true Hindi belts, but at least in metros like Mumbai and Calcutta, which have more diversity and open mindedness to some degree than interior towns and cities. With VTV being touted as an international caliber album and with Oscar winning AR's name behind it, will VTV gain the appreciation of more beyond the South Indian States, and perhaps beyond India? I've got a very good feeling about it!!!!
