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
Image
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

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

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

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.

These are the Rad instruments that are dying out in India. So, it's going well and I think now we are increasing the number of kids we have taught and of course we are helping out with other things too. It's based in India now. [The idea is to] perfect it in one place and then we'll expand.

Be original and find your inner voice. The rest will follow.

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.

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
Image
Sometimes I intentionally cut it off. I just want to be in silence, especially when I'm traveling. I watch movies without sound.

The more you know the less you talk.

I love the voice - it’s the most perfect instrument ever heard. It’s God given.
A. R. Rahman
Image
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.

All my life I have had a choice of hate and love. I chose love and I am here

Your inner voice is the voice of divinity. To hear it, we need to be in solitude, even in crowded places.
A. R. Rahman

Music is all about transporting people, speaking a language which languages fail to express.
A. R. Rahman
Image
When you do something with a lot of honesty, appetite and commitment, the input reflects the output.
A. R. Rahman
Image
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
Image
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

You can't be without passion. Passion means the possessiveness to be the best.
