"We did complain, i protested. They said, they are going for digital projection from next year. All the films were judged like that. their answer was sorry sir we don't have a DTS projection provision, all the movies are watched on mono.."

Really pathetic state of affairs. Atleast Satish protested. (good to hear that). One more NA wouldn't make much of a difference to IR or his fans. The entire SRR music department has put up a brilliant effort, left no stone unturned and delivered a fabulous output. (Seems IR went to Hungary a few days after his wife passed away, to complete the final mixing of SRR. That's how dedicated he was to SRR, and it shows in the film). NA would have given this team the kind of recognition they truly deserve, at national level. Doesn't matter if SRR sweeps all state awards, filmfares etc... NA is NA. Despite glowing reviews and special screening at Indian Panorama, this film didn't break even, financially. And now, it didn't score at NAs either. Sad to see their efforts go down the drain. That probably sums up why some of us here are totally unhappy with NAs.
