*Hyderabad, Oct 12 (PTI)* A R Rahman has accomplished a lot as a musician in
his 17-year career thus far but he has one dream unfulfilled.

"I am a great fan of ace director K Viswanath and wanted to work with him.
Since he has stopped making films, my dream could not turn real, Rahman said
when asked about his unfulfilled dream.

Rahman was here today to attend a function and also announce his live
concert slated for October 24 at the GMR Arena.

Viswanath is known for making classics like Sankarabharanam, Sagar Sangamam,
Swatimutyam (Easwar in Hindi) and Swarnakamalam that glorified Indian art
forms and traditions.

Sankarabharanam, the story of a classical musician, won many national awards
for the music score composed by the legendary K V Mahadevan.

Thank you for your reply.  ARR has since gone back to India as far 
as I know.  Do wish you had a chance too.  I once thought I would 
never meet him, but I did.  Keep that wish alive.

Dear 
  fellow Rahman fans,Last week I had the most extreme fortunate 
  opportunity to meet with ARR during his away assignment working on the 
  LOTR music.  I feel extremely fortunate to have met and befriended a 
  close associate of ARR who was extremely kind and generous enough to help 
  arrange this meeting.  This person wishes to remain anonymous and I 
  will respect that. I met him late night at a studio where he was 
  working on the Rang De Basanti BGM.  Rahmanji was kind enough to give 
  my wife and I his break time and spent about 15 minutes with us.  A 
  beautiful human being, simple, pure at heart, hospitable, down to earth, 
  and at ease, he made us feel so welcomed and comfortable, despite being so 
  exhausted from lack of sleep and working on multiple projects in a 
  foreign land.  I was so overwhelmed in his presence that I did not 
  get a chance to ask him too many questions, but I got his autograph on 
  my Vande Mataram CD and some photos taken with him.  He was very 
  happy that I chose the Vande Mataram for him to sign and asked me my 
  favorite song from that album.  I said, "Only You", and he said, 
  "Only You?I didn't do that one properly!"  Can you believe 
  it?  An amazing song, one of my favorites, and yet he thinks that he 
  could have done a better job with it.  Didn't have a chance to get 
  into details about it.  I also did not want him to feel like I was 
  interviewing him, since we already felt kind of guilty for taking his 
  break time.  But, he not once made us feel less important than him or 
  not once did he ever air his status, talk about himself, or anything to 
  that extent.  He never once showed that he was bothered by our coming 
  there during his busy time.  He smiled, joked with us, asked us 
  caring questions.  He was so relaxed, we felt like we've known him 
  for some time.  So gracious and welcoming, despite going to a studio,

  speechless to describe what a beautiful person he is, pure in heart and 
  soul, and as you all know, it shows through his music.  I was 
  lucky enough to have Rahman read a long letter I had written that was 
  given to him by this close associate and my friend the day before.  
  In that letter, I poured my heart out as far as what his music means to me 
  and the many ways I appreciate his music and how he has impacted my 
  life.  He took the time to read it and I was so grateful.  I 
  wish he could read what you all would like to say to him too.  I 
  learned that he does read our messages on this group and feels

  close associate of ARR through this group, and if it weren't for this

Sailu,

I hope your dream to meet him comes true too.  Forgot to mention 
that I met him in Toronto, Canada during his LOTR project work 
there.  Thanks for reminding me.  He has since come back to India.

[arr] A dream come true - my meeting with A.R. Rahman

2005-12-03 Thread Ajit
Dear fellow Rahman fans,

Last week I had the most extreme fortunate opportunity to meet with 
ARR during his away assignment working on the LOTR music.  I feel 
extremely fortunate to have met and befriended a close associate of 
ARR who was extremely kind and generous enough to help arrange this 
meeting.  This person wishes to remain anonymous and I will respect 
that. 

I met him late night at a studio where he was working on the Rang De 
Basanti BGM.  Rahmanji was kind enough to give my wife and I his 
break time and spent about 15 minutes with us.  A beautiful human 
being, simple, pure at heart, hospitable, down to earth, and at 
ease, he made us feel so welcomed and comfortable, despite being so 
exhausted from lack of sleep and working on multiple projects in a 
foreign land.  I was so overwhelmed in his presence that I did not 
get a chance to ask him too many questions, but I got his autograph 
on my Vande Mataram CD and some photos taken with him.  He was very 
happy that I chose the Vande Mataram for him to sign and asked me my 
favorite song from that album.  I said, "Only You", and he 
said, "Only You?I didn't do that one properly!"  Can you believe 
it?  An amazing song, one of my favorites, and yet he thinks that he 
could have done a better job with it.  Didn't have a chance to get 
into details about it.  I also did not want him to feel like I was 
interviewing him, since we already felt kind of guilty for taking 
his break time.  But, he not once made us feel less important than 
him or not once did he ever air his status, talk about himself, or 
anything to that extent.  He never once showed that he was bothered 
by our coming there during his busy time.  He smiled, joked with us, 
asked us caring questions.  He was so relaxed, we felt like we've 
known him for some time.  So gracious and welcoming, despite going 
to a studio, he made us feel as if we came to his home and even 
offered us something to eat, despite not having many options for 
food at the studio.  Just speechless to describe what a beautiful 
person he is, pure in heart and soul, and as you all know, it shows 
through his music.  

I was lucky enough to have Rahman read a long letter I had written 
that was given to him by this close associate and my friend the day 
before.  In that letter, I poured my heart out as far as what his 
music means to me and the many ways I appreciate his music and how 
he has impacted my life.  He took the time to read it and I was so 
grateful.  I wish he could read what you all would like to say to 
him too.  I learned that he does read our messages on this group and 
feels grateful.  

My fellow fans, I had you all in mind when I was meeting with Rahman 
and I so dearly wish each and every one of you can have an 
opportunity like I did.  You are all equally as deservng as me to 
have the kind of experience that I had.  I am so proud to be a 
Rahman fan and to be among the good company of you all as part of 
this special group.

I would like to mention specifically that I met this close associate 
of ARR through this group, and if it weren't for this group, I would 
not have gotten the opportunity that I did to create a special 
friendship with him and to meet with ARR.  I also met another very 
very close friend two years ago through this group, for which I am 
so grateful.  This person who I met two years ago is one of the most 
generous human beings imaginable and he was kind enough to provide 
me copies of ARR's entire collection and much much more.  Thank you 
Gopal, thank you to all who make this group so special and for 
allowing me to voice my love for ARR and to have created some 
special friendships and most recently, to have met with ARR.  I 
really hope ALL of you someday get to meet him like I did. 

Much much thanks to this group.  I wanted to write earlier, but I 
was busy studying for my state board exams this week, which I took 
on Wed, and just busy with work.  I wanted to wait until today to 
gather my thoughts and to write appropriately.  

Long live ARR.  HAIL ARR!  Let us all pray for 
ARR's future success and may he climb unknown heights.

With warm regards to you all,

Ajit
