A. R. Rahman is a musician with whom every filmmaker wants to work over and
over again.

So, when Ashutosh Gowariker decided to break away from the collaboration
after successes like *Lagaan, Swades *and *Jodhaa Akbar, *speculations were
rife that the two had fallen apart.

However, Ashutosh clarifies that they are still good friends.

"Why I could not work with Rahman for *What's Your Rashee? *was because I
wanted to finish this film quickly. But he was already booked for months for
films like *Slumdog Millionaire* and *Delhi 6 *then. I would have required a
lot of time considering I needed 13 songs for the film. So we decided that
we shall skip it this time," he says.

"But I think I have got great music from Sohail (Sen) in this film as well.
His father had introduced me to him and asked if I would like to listen to
his son. And I was very impressed with his capability," adds the director.
