Chill out, Ramesh. I'm just expressing disappointment about the song not being included, based on info from the past, interviews, etc. Sometimes these so called "tabloid" sources can be correct, so don't immediately claim that a previous Asha Bhonsle interview when she said she sang for a song for Raavan is just a figment of someone's imagination. It's only my expectation and disappointment....did I say that album would be bad or that I would be forever disappointed in Raavan?
I do agree with you that we need to pay attention to info only from reliable sources, but expectations about hearing a singer in an album (Asha in Raavan) have been widespread, not just from me. Give us a break, please. --- In [email protected], Ramesh R <triscod...@...> wrote: > > Good lord! It's happening all over again. Fake track lists create false > expectations.
