More quotes by A. R. Rahman
The idea of music is to liberate the listener and lead him to a frame where he feels he is elevated.
A. R. Rahman
I grew up on Bach and Beethoven and now I'm listening to more modern composers who I can't even name. But since I'm constantly doing music, it's difficult to have that quality time to listen to music and do classical stuff. That's the only reason I'm thinking of going on.
A. R. Rahman
In my case, dust has become gold: Today, I work with people I grew up admiring.
A. R. Rahman
I don't even know where mine [Oscar award] is. My mother has hidden it because everybody who comes in wants to take a photograph of it. So what she's done is she put it inside a suitcase somewhere.
A. R. Rahman
I didn't see it coming at all. I just wanted to have this new experience with this team of Danny Boyle, Christian (Colson) and Simon (Beaufoy). It was like an excursion for me from my normal routine and the Indian movies I do and that helped.
A. R. Rahman
My biggest dream to connect people through music has come true. In a world where there are enough reasons to separate us, the Oscars have unified us.
A. R. Rahman
You can't be without passion. Passion means the possessiveness to be the best.
A. R. Rahman
Music knows no barrier of age or culture. It isn’t about being politically correct or even making a statement. Music is what appeals to the ears and touches your soul.
A. R. Rahman
After a point of time, when you get success and fame, money and everything, the purpose of life has to be redefined. For me, I think that purpose is to build bridges. Artists can do that very easily, more than politicians.
A. R. Rahman
The music had to be rooted, and yet had to branch out,like the wild imagination of a child.
A. R. Rahman
Since I worked with Danny Boyle before on Slumdog Millionaire, we have great success and everything. So, when I first got the script and the screenplay of Simon (Beaufoy) and I was reading it, even before the shoot, some kind of sounds came into my mind and I put some stuff [down] and sent it to Danny when he was cutting the movie.
A. R. Rahman
I wanted to be part of something bigger
A. R. Rahman
That's a sound design thing but then we wanted to do music that would not disturb it and at the same time drive it.
A. R. Rahman
Music is something that takes you to a world which is very different from the world of hatred,jealousy, and all those negative emotions
A. R. Rahman
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Obama, Thank you for sending me Christmas and New Year greetings yet again. Welcome back to India... Would have loved to host you at my concert in Baroda on the 26th!
A. R. Rahman
I believe that whatever comes at a particular time is a blessing from God.
A. R. Rahman
It had a language. It's a very emotional language that only exists in India, that part of [inaudible] so we wanted to use that. I had two versions - one with my voice and one with the girl's voice. But he preferred the girl's voice and he preferred my voice with an [inaudible].
A. R. Rahman
The more you know the less you talk.
A. R. Rahman
How we approached this was I wanted this to be personal in a way. It's not a big, epic Hollywood score but really personal and intimate, and we thought guitar would be the perfect instrument for him because he's young and he has an undying spirit and all that stuff and we went on that feeling totally.
A. R. Rahman
I think I would like to discover a new root where people don't get bored with people singing boring lines but something exciting. That'd be interesting.
A. R. Rahman
