I am very disappointed when I saw song & they have removed the Sindhi sentence. The old one is gold one.

Sorry to know about it. There certainly many more important personalities to be shown in the video than the bollywood artists. Moreover Assam and the North East certainly needs better representation.

With more and more developments in the field of sound technology in studios, creativity is losing out. To prove this statement, the latest 'Phir mile sur' is the best example as of now.

And, let me say boldly, we are also DISAPPOINTED with Bhupen Hazarika in this version.

Not only creativity, there is a Loss of Soul by heavy dependency on technology in today's music and lyrics.

New 'phir mile sur' is below standard.

Otherwise there wouldn't have been a phrase 'old is gold'. As for Bhupen Hazarika, as pallavi baruah has stated, we cannot be dissapointed with him butfeel sorry for him. He can hardly utter his own name properly. He has grown too feeble with age and ill health.
And regarding the 'representation of the north east factor', when was there the north eastern states beyond kolkata? We have always been unrepresented. Just for that chicken neck are we calling we are part of India.It's time that the people of this region come together and raise our voice. A Good debate should be initiated in the national news channels.

The views are entirely personal. I respect everyone's opinion over the issue and in no way feel that everyone has got to have the same views. That's it and here it ends.

I agree entirely. Its almost as if there are no other worthy people in this country except performing artistes, esp of the popular stream. N-E gets a raw deal. South is a mere 2-bit act..again making me feel as i were from a different country called 'South India' (Im sick of the ques 'are you a south indian?')
Where are the sportspersons, educationists, scientists, local musicians and more importantly where is the 'aam aadmi'? Unfortunately aam aadmi only gets to be the bye-stander.
And did you notice the way certain bits in the video were shot? SRK, whats-his-name kapoor and a couple others standing at the edge of some precipice or the other and spreading their arms into the air almost as if they were pleading for help! :-)
