From one great country to another

When AR Rehman took the center stage for the Oscars for Jai Ho in Slumdog Millionaire, it was a great tribute to Indian music.
Rehman is no doubt one of the most talented musicians of the Indian cinema and gulzar is the one of the best lyricist.

Although I am not a big fan of slumdog millionaire becaue it has reflected more on negativity but still that movie carrie hope.

It struck to me that what a great country India was . AR Rehman was surrounded in controversy because he san Vande Matram and Muslim community was outraged that how can he do such a thing. Now a Muslim , born a truly democratic country like India wons the world's most coveted prize in another great country USA.

USA which recognizes talent and is called a land of opportunity , recognizes Rehman and his music and sets an example again that anything can be accomplished on this land.

I love USA!
I love India!
