Though the Tamil version of Raavan's music album by A R Rahman doesn't scale the heights of brilliance, the maestro's expertise in instrumental arrangement, choice of vocals and Kaviperararu Vairamuthu's lyrics more than make up for it.

A R Rahman (who else, really?) makes waiting for his music such a worthwhile chore what with one fantastic soundtrack after another. Close on the heels of a deserving Golden Globes wins follows the anticipated score of Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's Dilli 6. Considering its impossible-to-define Chandni Chowk roots, Rahman injects the sounds of this 10-tracked album with an eclectic fusion of various genres. Bottom line: it's a 10 on 10.

Coming from a maestro who's delivered classics in his times, the music for this historical romance falls a little flat. It's as though the musician in him had to push really hard for inspiration and the labour is obvious. While it sticks to the classical theme, there's nothing new here; no scintillating compositions, nothing to indicate that it takes place in the 10th century. Kudos for the Carnatic base, but where is vintage Ilaiyaraja?

Investigating agencies claim that the amount of fake currency in India is a shocking Rs 170,000 crore. Reserve Bank of India officials dispute this figure and say that as on July 2008, the total currency available with the Indian public was Rs 603,000 crore and if what the IB is saying is true, then it would mean that 28 per cent of the currency in the country is fake.
