I dont trust this article. Rahman will never make a statement like this. This is too huge a decision worthy of making news headlines in TV channels ( not breaking news...just news). When this is actually trivialized.
And i dont think Rahman would have said anything to this effect. If this is by any remote chance a true statement by the man himself then i deeply regret his stance. He has a long future ahead in Bollywood as against Hollywood. Hollywood music is very stereotyped and another slumdog kind of music wont work.
