It's just about having demand alone. A lot of other stuffs are to be taken into consideration if those songs are to be released. Especially copyrights and stuff...

It is extremely frustrating that a finished product which is just a few mouse clicks way to be put on a CD goes into oblivion for unjustified reasons. I can understand the songs getting edited out in the movie to help the narrative but not their omission on the audio CD. And this is not just limited to Raavan. There have been several instances in the past too. Look at the whole Connections episode where a bunch of masterpieces like Man Chandre Nu and Mosquito can not be heard legally unless you buy a cell phone that has by now become defunct. The soundtrack of Provoked went unreleased too. I understand that it is not AR's sole responsibility to ensure that all his music reaches our ears and there are several copyright issues that need to be sorted but if any one person can make it happen it is AR. In this age where music can be distributed digitally with minimum costs and with an official web store already in place, a legal digital download process is good start for his unreleased tracks and background scores. I sincerely hope that this thread generates enough buzz to garner a critical mass that is required for folks that matter to take notice.

For us music lovers and AR fans, I recommend that AR and his team put together a compilation CD of his unreleased songs under the KM Musiq Label and all proceeds for this CD should go to a charity of ARR's choice. Remember the Qawali from Jodha Akbar? Remember that song from Dil Se everyone keeps mentioning? Now potentially 3 songs from Raavan, and probably many more songs from previous albums. Come on fans! Something like this should happen!!! I pray for this to happen, and it would be for a good cause too!!! By the way, this idea is not mine alone....a good friend of mine, who is also a group member, helped with this idea.
