National badminton Champion Chetan Anand knows his chances of qualifying for the Beijing Olympics are rather slim. Yet he is hoping for a miracle to happen in the last two qualifying tournaments before the cut-off date for Olympic berths.

If you have been listening to the new songs these days you will notice that Anand Raj Anand is singing quite a few of them. He was requested by Pritam to sing the song Billo Raani from Goal. He has done a music video Himesh Reshammiya style in the Bhula Diya song from Dus Kahaniyaan. And he also sang 2 songs in Welcome along with composing them.
Anand Raj Anand has been in the industry for quite a while but has never received any recognition despite making good tunes throughout his career. So will this be a turning point for him? Will he be the new super star musician?
We don’t think so!
As you can see in the Bhula Diya video, it may be a very nice song but ARA just doesn’t have the personality like Himesh does. In the film Aggar the composer Mithoon also tried to make a Himesh style video but it did not gain popularity. Actually Mithoon looked quite funny with his ‘trying to be cool’ sunglasses.
ARA is a good composer and his voice is more tolerable to many peo

Deeply impressed by Mickey J Meyer’s music, this video is just an attempt to mix this beautiful song with some sensuous scenes from Anand. Watch the original song from Happy Days. Sekhar Kammula’s taking is brilliant. Picturisation, especially from those elevated angles is just beautiful. For once, you’ll get a real feel for the symphony between the music and motion.

El campeonato mundial de ajedrez, que se ha celebrado estos días en Ciudad de México, finalizó ayer y el indio Viswanathan Anand se proclamó campeón del mundo con claridad, invicto en catorce rondas, con 10 tablas y cuatro victorias. Quedó un punto por delante de Vladímir Kramnik (anterior campeón) y del israelí Boris Gelfand. Puede verse en detalle la clasificación final. No obstante, hay que aclarar que los campeonatos de mundo se han celebrado tradicionalmente en la modalidad cara a cara entre dos jugadores (campeón y aspirante), y no en una liguilla de ocho a doble vuelta, como en esta edición. Por ello, está previsto para el aó próximo una revancha a doce partidas entre Anand y Krámnik, que decidirá el campeón del mundo absoluto.
