Rehman working on his own symphony Wednesday, June 08, 2005 After a long interval, music director A R Rehman is now fully concentrating on Tamil movies.
Rehman is busy composing tunes for Ajith''s Godfather and S J Suryah''s A Aah. Of course, he has his commitments in Hindi and is also scoring tunes for an English musical. Rehman is happy to be back in Tamil that shaped him up. "Since I was busy with my earlier commitments, I could not concentrate on Kollywood now. However I am back here with great enthusiasm and energy." A quick chat with the music genius. What are the movies you are currently working? Godfather is nearing completion. Then I have A Aah followed by a movie titled Jil Endru Oru Kadhal starring Surya. I have composed a song for Jil Endru Oru Kadhal which I am sure would become anthem among youngsters. Will you score music for low budget movies? I am not averse to working in small budget films. I am more keen on working with a good unit. I love to work with director Manirathinam for he always strives for excellence. How many directors today aim for perfection ? If I get the right team, I would work for any producer. When you score music for Bollywood and Chinese films, how do you adapt yourself to the environment? Whenever I work in any language, I understand their culture, know about the people of the region as well. A song can reach masses only if the tunes reflect the culture of the land. What's your dream project? I am keeping it a secret. I want to do a symphony. I have begun my work towards it. The symphony is an inspiration of a Sufi story. I want to name the symphony Conference of the Bird. Very soon I will begin my work towards it. It is said that you take huge money to score music? I am not keen on making money. Had I wanted to make quick money, I would have made it when I was scoring advertisement jingles before Roja. God has given me this talent and I hope to continue with it according to his wishes. http://www.indiaglitz.com/channels/tamil/interview/6365.html ------------------------ Yahoo!
