Friends, bear in mind that anyone can edit wikipedia.... I dont need facts about ARR, I just know he is the best in his own style which is a mile apart from what we normally have from indian music industry. That's all i care for... He even dont seem to be bothering about awards, fame etc... He only needs self satisfaction knowing he is reaching millions around the world with his divine music.

Anyways my friend the listing in over "250 million records sold" is in ascending alphabetical order that's what makes AC/DC in the 1st and our boss A.R.Rahman in the 2nd place. please have some basic observation before posting such topics and writing the subject line. Anyways our boss has that potential to reach the top n i am definitely sure that we'll see him ruling the charts. > > Hail ARR.. > Somashekar B J > > --- On Thu, 8/14/08, Dastageer <[EMAIL PROTECTED] com> wrote: > > From: Dastageer <[EMAIL PROTECTED] com> > Subject: Re: [arr] A R Rahman is world #1 best selling Artist !!!! > To: arrahmanfans@ yahoogroups. com > Date: Thursday, August 14, 2008, 8:20 AM > > > Hi, >  > Did u see in the list AR is in Second place. >  > by > DAS > > --- On Thu, 8/14/08, Abhimanyu Rana <ar_interact3@ yahoo.com> wrote: > > From: Abhimanyu Rana <ar_interact3@ yahoo.com> > Subject: Re: [arr] A R Rahman is world #1 best selling Artist !!!! > To: arrahmanfans@ yahoogroups. com > Date: Thursday, August 14, 2008, 11:51 AM > > > This is amazing considering the fact that the genius has just started as a kindergarden kid in the music high schools of the west.
