You cant sing in Hindu as Marni just said. Hindu is a religion. Hindi is the language. On this post oscar slum dog sweep- lets hope people are more informed. Tell em Lenny.

It's always grand to hear from such a truly talented lady. Break a leg, Marnie!

Hooray! It's always nice to see Marni Nixon get a little credit for her work! I have fond memories of watching her Seattle-area children's show, Boomerang, as a kid!
