Thankx for all the replies U guyz gave me...!!! I'm a Malaysian....!! and
as far as Malaysian Indian is concerned... A.R.Rahman is the best.... this
is because he newer copies any tunes...!! but the most Hindi and other
music directors copies other famous songs...!! maybe U Indians R not
exposed to this western songs.. so U might not be able to detect the
forgery of these kind of music directors...!! for an Example.... in the
movie Pardes.... U can hear a superb song scored by Nadeem Shravan "I love
my India..." it is actually a copied tune...!! it is Kitaro's tune that
Nadeem has stolen...!!! Another E.g.. is the song Awas do Hamko from the
movie Dushman music from Utam Sing the great...!! it is a newer version of
an older Telugu song...!!
but so far I have newer heard any of A.R.Rahman songs which have been
copied from others...!! but allot of people are copying his work....!!
some say that he is taking the tunes of Dr.Alban.... but believe me.... it
is not true.... A.R.Rahman stands by his own....!!! Long live Rahman....!!!

Listen to his music in 'Hindustani' and compare with
Ace of Base (all that she wants)

This is a crap posted from http://www.tfmpage.com. It is one of the most biased
discussion forum, where the only agenda seem to be to bash ARR at any cost.
All the copied element mentioned below is grossly exaggerated, sometimes even
blatant lies.

I myself don't rate ARR highly, but this sort of bashing is unfair.

Ravi Krishna.

I completely agree with you, Ravi. These are blatant lies. I have almost half
of the albums these guys talk about and none of the accusings they have done
are close to the truth. These guys cannot accept the fact that A R Rahman has
revolutionized their film music, and they therefore are trying to sabotage
him. This is purely pathetic!! Shame on these guys.
