My music and movie favs

I love music and movies.

 

This is what I'd written in my profile on Orkut.com. Thought I'd remove it from there and put it here...

 

Music:

A R Rahman - One and Only!!!
And, all fusion music artists

And, if time permits (strictly in this order), Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy, Vishal-Shekhar, Shantanu Moitra, Ilaiyaraja, Deepak Dev, Sandeep Chowta, Harris Jayaraj, Raveendran, RD Burman, MG Radhakrishnan, Himesh Reshammiya,  Salim-Suleiman, and Pritam Chakrabarti.
