The much awaited press meet of A.R. Rahman took place at the Green Park Hotel in Chennai. Rahman arrived at the venue around 4:30 pm. The musician looked relaxed and was comfortable answering the questions thrown at him. The ever-courteous Rahman enquired if the reporters preferred him to answer in Tamil or English and finally decided to answer depending on the language in which the question was asked. |
A.R. Rahman said that he understood that music has no boundaries and hence wanted his music to reach everyone. He added that he believed music can deliver messages and through his music he wishes to promote peace and harmony.
When asked how he bagged the Slumdog Millionaire offer, Rahman said that Danny Boyle signed him up only after listening to his music and accessing his talent. This shows the confidence that Boyle had on the musician.
Rahman’s message to those who want to achieve greater things in life is: “Have good intentions and get the results.”
When quizzed about what he accomplished by these coveted awards, Rahman said that it was immense respect that he got from the people, his counterparts and even legends.
Responding whether his children would toe his line, Rahman said that they are slowly learning music and it is up to them to decide.
