Like I said before, the relationship is only correlational, not conditional, and I also said that there are some exceptions, but that the correlation is high. Yes, you're right, Ghajini the movie was a huge hit. The music of Zubeidaa is a sure classic, but never a commercial success. I was only mentioning commercial success, not quality of album.
I won't worry too much! And, Wikipedia mentions that this track list is incomplete and that there are supposed to be additional songs sung by Asha Bhonsle, Shreya Ghoshal, and AR Rahman himself! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raavan#Music --- In [email protected], vedavid manick <vedavid_man...@...> wrote: > > Not necessarily.
