ARR it is

ARRehman just received 2 Oscars. Thank God for him!! Kudos to you Sir. Loved seeing you there, loved your mention of Chennai and loved the Tamil end-of-speech but hated your speechwriter. Maybe there wasn't one and that is why you said what you said.:-)
Why did you use "Mere paas Maa hain"? It didn't fit in at all!!!!
Anyway, Jai Ho. We are proud of you.

it looked like he realised that the 'maa' line didn't sound as cool as it was thought to be, even as he was saying it.
but, by inserting the "pugazh-iravan" line, i suppose he can be forgiven by all the people who feel he should have received this award some 15 years back.
the rest don't matter, anyways! right? :-)

He had to mention his mom. But yeah, sentiment and world audience don't work as well as with Indian audience.

Last line, perfect:-)
