I am a big admirer of Sachin and his personality. He is a source of inspiration for the country and just looking at his photographs gives a lot of positive vibes.
A. R. RahmanThe idea of music is to liberate the listener and lead him to a frame where he feels he is elevated.
A. R. RahmanMy first experience of that was with my first movie which I did in India. And it was so different from other people. I find that "Oh my God." Every time the music is slow I feel that people are going to get up and go out. You get this nervousness. But, to my surprise, people starting singing the song even before it came in. They started singing along a week later, after release, which was very cool.
A. R. RahmanThat'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. RahmanMy 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. RahmanI'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.
