While I agree with the above statements by myown_niche and Gayathri, I also
think it's ok for us to vent some ire over IR's non acknowledgement of ARR's
achievement, where avoidance and silence can be seen as a louder statement than
saying something in words. But, let's just stick to this behavior alone and
not get into a broader comparison between AR and IR, both of whom are musical
legends, both of whom have passionate fans, both of whom are deserving of this
gov recognition. And after some venting, let's get back to discussing AR's
music please.
