Either Rahman is too tired of making just music or he wants to make more money. Methinks it's the latter! Why else would he want to make a film? Yup, you heard it right, music director AR Rahman <http://www.buzz18.com/celebrity-profile/ar-rahman/1331> has finally turned producer. The name of his debut production is said to be *Marmayogi*. Set in the seventh century, Rahman will co-produce the film with Kamal Haasan <http://www.buzz18.com/celebrity-profile/kamal-haasan/481>. I am given to believe that *Kamal*<http://www.buzz18.com/features/movies/dont-miss-top-15-gangster-films/59121/0>had initially been roped in to produce this film with Bharat Bala Productions and Adlabs. However, things didn't fall into place with the two companies and now Rahman has stepped in. Of course, everyone in showbiz wants to make movies at some point. But I must confess, I couldn't help being surprised when I was told that this could well be the most expensive film in India! Kamal Haasan <http://www.buzz18.com/celebrity-profile/kamal-haasan/481> will direct and act in *Marmayogi* and Rahman will compose the music... now that's what I'd call cost-cutting! http://www.buzz18.com/news/movies/rahmankamal-ink-a-secret-deal/60401/0 -- regards, Vithur HELP EVER; HURT NEVER; LOVE ALL; SERVE ALL
