More quotes by A. R. Rahman
The more I compose, the more I know that I don't know it all. I think it's a good way to start. If you think you know it all, the work becomes a repetition of what you've already done.
A. R. Rahman
Certain things are done intentionally opposite - like there's no sound at the end or synthesizers or all that stuff. Anything that drowns the movie, no. Anything that makes you sit up and watch it, yes. So, some are expecting a very sad theme going on.

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
The more you know the less you talk.
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 I initially read the script, it goes inside and comes out different things even without commenting on any stuff. And then, those pieces are taken out and then spread out through the movie.
A. R. Rahman
That was a very different emotion and I felt Dido's words would be good and I had a template with my voice in it. Then, when he heard it, he wanted both our voices together in it and that's the scene when he sees the boy and then he gets charged to go on that final cutting effort.
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
When you do something with a lot of honesty, appetite and commitment, the input reflects the output.
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
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
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
