Hosanna Trouble for AR Rahman

In : |



No, its not a joke, the CSF or the Christian Secular Forum has a problem with the song and they have asked the producers to avoid the use of the word 'Hosanna' from the song(seriously?) plus want a public apology from the composer and lyricist for the use of the word. The news spread out as the song of the movie 'Ek Diwana Tha' which stars Prateik Babbar and Amy Jackson has gained publicity. The song has the soul resided on the word 'Hosanna' which is the controversy now.

The CSF, Mumbai has issued an email statement to the lyricist Javed Akhtar, composer A R Rahman and the members associated with the movie from Fox Star Studios and Sony Music India, expressing the concern over the word and have also asked a public apology for using the holy word in the song. 

According to CSF, the word 'Hosanna' is a prayer used in Bible and is widely used by Christians and Jews. The forum finds that the song uses the sacred word in wrong context. The CSF also plans to move court against Fox Star Studios and Sony Music as well as file a police complaint against those concerned.

Now seriously thinking, why should this be a issue at all? Is it the fame game? This will have gone out as one of the best songs by A R Rahman but still there has to be a controversy. The same song in Tamil went out to be a super duper hit minus the controversy!
