I again say that ARR, like all of us, lives in a commercial world. The grocery man charges him and us money to give wheat and rice. He, like us, has to earn for that and also to make provisions for old age and other current and future responsibilities. Everybody must be knowing several real life incidents of one time top names of bollywood spending a penniless old age. So, it is perfectly OK for him to earn money that he gets. He has striven life long to earn such a place for himself now when he can call shots. By demanding his due share, he is setting bollywood practices right side ,up otherwise the financiers/ producer will pocket all profit leaving the actual performers and visualizers rot in slums. It is for us, the fans, to give concessions wherever we see such commercial impacts affecting his work. It is up to us to be wise and tolerant and not to expect much from a Blue but we should have trust that he will come up again with a Guru or Delhi-6 or 1947Earth wherever he gets freedom to have his way. > > little off topic but true that song picturization is kinda lame.

I think even political parties consider 35 as the top age after which a person is no longer in YUVA arm. > > > - Jahanzeb -- Rawat > > > --- In [email protected], V S Rawat <vsra...@...> wrote: >> On 8/28/2009 1:39 PM India Time, _Matthew Islam_ wrote: >> >>> Trust this from someone who knows, the soundtrack is rocking >>> enough within the bounds of the script!!! >> My hunch is also the same.
