Hi chord, Happy you brought this topic..
Yes, I was surprised that AR missed VB's name. But it was just that he forgot. They do have lot of respect for each other. For ex, when RDB got the film fare for best music, AR said 'My favourite album of the year is OMKARA'. So I am sure both share great respect for each other. Hope I dont start a regional war by saying these. I just felt while watching filmfares, bollywood treats AR better than Kollywood/tamil film industry does. I loved the ovation they gave in film fares this yr and last yr,SRK's speech, Karan Johar's speech last year. Wonderful and so happy at the respect they give for our AR. In tamil, they either hesitate to praise AR, of if they do they ensure they praise another MD equally ( no names ), and few want to drag him into conterversies. What not? Though being a tamilian myself, i am very happy that he moved to bollywood early and now in hollywood :) AR has taught all of us to love all, so lemme try my best to stick to it :) --- In [email protected], "AJ" <purev...@...> wrote: > > Guys, > > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qig0xHh3me8 > > It was so awesome to see ARR winning the filmfare award so graciously and > amidst bollywood's finest with great ovation given.
