More quotes by 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
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
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
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 want to go beyond the restrictions of language, religion and caste, and music is the only thing that allows me to do that.
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
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
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
The institution of marriage works better when there's a spiritual connection. If you're marrying just for the sake of the woman, then you may lose interest in each other very soon. When we marry in the interest of the Holy Spirit with the intention of serving God and humanity, then it gives a much larger perspective.
A. R. Rahman
It's a very simple process. He [Danny Boyl] comes in the tube (subway) and then he sits with me for 3 hours every evening and then I work on something. Then later, if he likes something, I put it even more perfectly. I tweak stuff. So this happened for 3 or 4 weeks and the music was done.
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
The more you know the less you talk.
A. R. Rahman
If music wakes you up, makes you think, heals you...then, I guess the music is working.
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
I believe that whatever comes at a particular time is a blessing from God.
A. R. Rahman
There have been predictions that the world will come to an end on 21.12.12. But I look around me and I see so much scope for hope.
A. R. Rahman
People Expect Something New From Me All The Time.And That's Good It Keeps Me On The Edge
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
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
Music is language itself. It should not have any barriers of caste, creed, language or anything. Music is one, only cultures are different. Music is the language of languages. It is the ultimate mother of languages.
A. R. Rahman
