More quotes by A. R. Rahman
The more you know the less you talk.
A. R. Rahman
I love classical music. I love a lot of musicians playing together and the whole culture of that, whether it's Indian or it's Western.
A. R. Rahman
Sometimes I intentionally cut it off. I just want to be in silence, especially when I'm traveling. I watch movies without sound.
A. R. Rahman
I've been doing music for many years and after a point what is the motivation that drives you to compose and to do stuff? I did this song for the U.N., a fighting for poverty anthem. That's when I realized that I could do a foundation. And when I started the foundation, it was basically to fight poverty and to help - that kind of stuff.
A. R. Rahman
If music wakes you up, makes you think, heals you...then, I guess the music is working.
A. R. Rahman
In my case, dust has become gold: Today, I work with people I grew up admiring.
A. R. Rahman
Rather than making money I believe in making people happy, all other things are secondary. Money isn't important, creative satisfaction is
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
When you do something with a lot of honesty, appetite and commitment, the input reflects the output.
A. R. Rahman
I was a common man, and I will always remain a common man. No amount of stardom will ever consume my soul. Money comes, money goes. Fame comes, fame goes. I believe every human being is a celebrity in their own right.
A. R. Rahman
You can't be without passion. Passion means the possessiveness to be the best.
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
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
There were basically three themes. One was the sun theme which is the guitar when he'd get sun on his leg and it comes again in the end. And there's of course the lullaby which Dido sang, If I Rise. And then there's this driving guitar which is the motivation theme.
A. R. Rahman
While other creators make a big show of their art Mani Sir makes it look as though anyone can do what he does.
A. R. Rahman
We didn't want to do that. It would have been a beautiful moment in the movie but it would have brought the movie down. So Danny's vision was perfect I think when he wanted it to be driven at the same time having this new emotion about this boy coming as a hallucination or like a déjà vu and as the future kid.
A. R. Rahman
What is good is what it's going to lead to, like the song Jai Ho. If good numbers are going to come in the future, it bodes well for a lot of things. But then, who's going to maintain that. That's the question. So far they could never lead to an Indian song, like a normal film song in this that they can relate to.
A. R. Rahman
The search is more important than the destination
A. R. Rahman
My list would be Russia, Morocco, Turkey, and South Africa I'm doing which is somewhere I've wanted to go, Australia, Japan maybe, and China, if I have the energy to go and play at all those places.
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
